The revolution stories of many are research I have been conducting for a long time coming up the tag “REVOLUTION CRIES” gotten from my research on “her” (Nigeria), she is very beautiful with a lot of wealth belonging to her, she has made million mistakes and have gotten married to several men, all the men ended messing her up making a ridicule of her. They have used and dumped her, all her resources has been used up. And she has been abandoned, her children toiled with her belonging have all been looted. Her tears very bitter, she always put on sober mood as her condition is worsened on a daily basis. Her children are filled with fear and her with shame. They have taking to the street with no hope for the future. Their FEAR has eating them up as their pride and hope have been taken away from them. She has been stroked with so much fear by her husband and all the rights to her wealth have been ceased, she has been kicked out to the street by her husband hence, making her homeless, foreigners have spite her she found no love from her family and friends. All hope have been cut short, continuous gnashing of the teeth and hell on earth has been her daily routine. Nigeria is suffering drastically, fear and torment have been placed upon her shoulder Nigerians are unhappy people yet, still cover the sorrow with a deceitful smile pretending to be well to do of even at the cost of their life protecting nothing with a feeling of having something. Stand up Nigeria, Stand up for REVOLUTION. Stop protecting what you don’t have and what you can’t get (your life is not your own) STOP being contented in your fear and complaints. Why don’t we take that BOLD STEP breaking our silence to conquer our fear and make our common enemy (Corruption, Suffering,) retreat to the rare.
Fifty years ago, many Francophone African countries gained independence. Nigeria too separated from Britain in 1960. From 1960 to 1966, 46 of the continent’s 54 countries became sovereign. Else Engel and Stephanie von Hayek spoke with Salua Nour, a political scientist from Egypt, trying to find out whether there is much to celebrate 50 years later. [ Interview with Salua Nour ]
How was the mood in 1960 compared to 2010?
1960 was extremely symbolic. At the time, the elite engaged the people in political life with great enthusiasm. The motto was: “We’re fighting colonialism.” A lot of hope was raised; thousands of people were mobilised. The anti-colonial fight was a real source of energy. Fifty years later, the people have noticed that the independence process did not fulfil its promises.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT:-
What are we for fighting today? Is it not worst than colonialism, are our politicians and leaders not worst than our white taskmasters, and are they any development in the country compare to the era of our taskmasters?
