Dear Compatriot,
It is my wish to use this medium to enlighten us on how to fight corruption without violence and live a life totally free of "Corruption" I know few people will agree with me that it is possible to live a life totally free of corruption in this country of ours where corruption runs through all the systems. But the bitter truth is that it is possible and we all have one role or th
e
other to play in living a corrupt- free life. It is important to know that what is permanent in this world is change. For example those who were actively conscious of what exist in 1960 to mid 80s will agree with me that one time in Nigeria, life was easy for all. What we are facing now is another phase which is not easy for the majority. The leaders of our country betrayed our trust by stealing the public fund entrusted in their hands and feels no one can catch them, we the followers feels maltreated and in defense some go into robbery, drug trafficking, 419/ yahoo yahoo, kidnapping, bribing and what have you. But I tell you, instead of these acts to improve our standard of living and the glory of our country it retards it. Though you may make money for a while from corrupt practices but what becomes of you and your family later in life, and when you die you won't go with anything and you will account for all that you have stolen before the almighty. Just as integrity is an image, likewise is dishonesty and they are what sell you to the world. Just the way fake drug can sell for a while so also is bad behaviour! I always tell people that I am going to make it big in this world and it is not going to be through corrupt practices but so many people doubt if I won't change when temptation comes. I see no reason why people won't believe such is possible, it is a matter of choice and not force. The way you position your mind is the way it affects you "If you believe you can, definitely you will" and " when you say you can't you had already said yes to failure"
If there's anything we need to guide with the last blood in our vein, it is "Integrity" because this is what sells us to the world. When some people talk people says; "don't mind that liar" Liar is a name someone who lies give to himself/herself. This bad attitude makes it difficult for people to repose confidence in the person who does it, though he/she may be beautiful, handsome and wealthy but who cares. Though, majorities of our leaders are corrupt and unwilling to repent but two wrongs can not make a right. Only right attitude can defeat wrong attitude, not wrong attitude against wrong attitude. Let us all remember we have no where to call home than our country Nigeria and when we are dead what people remember of us is not how much money we made while we were here but how many lives we are able to affect with our acts, affluence and deed.
