This generation of the Youth has failed this country. You and I reading this post have failed Nigeria. It's very sad.
Activism has died a natural dead. Civil disobedience is now a story of the past not because the leaders have improved and become better but because some voices have been tamed and silenced while others with loud voices to complain what is not right in the society have been appointed into media and publicity offices.
The opposition parties have failed. Opposition parties used to be watch dog to the government but today's own are group of people who struggle to grab power to enrich themselves.
People like Gani, Falana, Afa Babalola, etc started at age lesser than we are today. What happened to our own generation of youth? Today, Omoyele Sowore, Adeyanju Deji, etc have done their best and are giving up gradually because the youth are not supporting well enough. Should activism die? How will the government know the reaction of the commoners to harsh government policies. Fuel price has thrown the country into infertile ground, who is to tell the government how painful it is to the low income earners.
Activism should be rekindled. It's a great way to show patriotism. Those around the ruling class can never tell them the truth that an activist or one in opposition party can tell him.
