What Nigeria Is Not At 64. It is said that Nigeria is 64 today, and that's what we have on Paper. But are we truly 64? Are we even the reverse, 46? I don't think so, Nigeria wobbles, falters and stutters like a 6, and a 4 year old Child. Certainly not like 64. Nigeria is NOT a Nation BUT a Rogue State superintended over by Rogues.

As a daughter of the soil, I could state frantically that Ikwuano Local Government Area of Abia State, had over the years, been relegated to the background, despite having prominent sons and daughters whose names ring like bells outside the community. I remember at the age of six (6), as I observed keenly, what seemed like a tradition; better put, a ritual among the people; a situation whereby the roads were graded and left half done.

Nigeria's democracy has been on shaky ground since gaining independence in 1960. The country's complex mix of over 200 ethnic groups, drawn together by British colonialists, has made national unity a daunting task ¹. Now, the National Youth Alliance is taking up the mantle to bring Nigerians together. The Alliance's rallying cry, "Youth Arise!" is a call to action for young Nigerians to take ownership of their country's future. With the youth making up a significant portion of Nigeria's population, their involvement is crucial in shaping the nation's destiny.
