Nigeria Drifts!

  Where the rule of law is not obeyed and especially the law of equilibrium is disregarded, we need no prophecy to tell us what happen next.

In every relationship, maintenance culture is absolutely compulsory to observe the golden rule of give and take to ensure balancing. Where such is undermined, there will be cracks in such relationship and total separation will follow.

The way Nigeria stands now, we are beckoning to factors that will eventually bring permanent separation to the various segments that made up the nation.  There is no way we can eat our cake and yet still having it on our hands! Separations are imminent as the country drift dangerously and it seems to me that there can be no help any further.

What has prevented this for too long is the fact that almost all Nigerians are involved in corruption either as practitioners or as beneficiaries, this has helped to postponed the evil days, but the elasticity has been drawn to the maximum level and reactions is soon.  Can those responsible still possess the wisdom to arrest the impending danger?

Nigeria has totally become a failed state and the gulf seems to me cannot be bridged any longer without the experts to bridge it experiencing deadly disaster. Who bell the Cat?  
   
 


ACDF is an acronym for the African Citizens Development Foundation. It is a private initiative to curb and if possible eradicate the tragic effects of indiscipline in our African society which includes: disorderliness and lawlessness, corruption, poverty, ethnic strife, greed and other negative social forces.
 
African Citizens Development Foundation was established out of the realization that bad leadership is truly the bane of development in Africa. The Foundation, however, strongly believes that bad leadership is the product of the nature of the citizens. In essence, the quality of the nature of the followership determines the leadership and since the leadership and the followership cannot be divorced from the socio-economic and political system that is operative in a society, it is imperative to awaken the consciousness of the citizens to the reality that they hold the ace to good governance.  Citizens remain the foundation upon which all leadership structures are built and every nation deserves its type of leaders which is produced in accordance with their prevailing nature.
