RE: Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement #38 - "Paradigm Shift"

in Speak Peace2 years ago (edited)

Hey buddies.

Nigerians are the kind of people that can easily be referred to as rare breed.We can survive what other nationals won't.
Let's see what this weekend topic is all about. In fact that is what my opening speech is all about.

What can you do differently to make our country better?

There are many things that are not in the right places or handled well in our nation. Some of these things are what makes life comfortable for the ordinary man. So, if I have the opportunity to do something differently, it would be in different areas.

First, there will be a central water distribution. Like in modern societies, water is solely distributed to homes and organization by the water agencies. I would do same for my nation.
The next would be in the area of domestic gas supply. Every home will be supplied cooking gas through a central depot and the citizens would have to just pay a subsidized amount of money on a monthly basis or bi-annually.

Electricity is another thing that calls for immediate revision. I would have to stop importation of generators so that we can focus on building power generating dams or grip within the nation for constant power supply both for domestic and industrial use.

There would also be a fire-walled electronic system voting that would be transmitted on national television while election is on going to avoid rigging as much as possible. And to make the votes of the citizens count.
Another important thing I will do is that politicians will not earn as much a secondary school teachers let alone university lecturers.
You know, I could go on and on.

@treasuree and @wofaipeace, come and join in this conversation, engagement and meet with buddies from Nigeria. It is a weekend thing you'd enjoy.

Sort:  

Incredible sir! It shows you are surely thinking about the welfare of our country and you know, I believe we will achieve all of these things someday as long as we keep doing things differently and that is from evil to good.

I so much love that first point so much, there are so much states in our country that are suffering from different diseases and it's all because of bad water and lack of water. Water is life and when people lack some of these basic things, it's really just hard for them to be creative and play a good role in the betterment of the country.

Because of the lack of these things you've mentioned, that's why so many people sell their rights just to get a comfortable life for themselves even when it means they will have to do something wrong.

It's always a pleasure to read from you, you always give very good points on every discussion, that's totally impressive 👍.

Its my pleasure. When it comes to our beloved nation, we know what our problems are, the way our is also at our disposal.

That's it, we know we have a problem, we have identified it and now is time put in some action.

You sound like someone who will do well in campaigning for a credible candidate.

I don't even know what that is, I've never been involved in politics 😂😂.

Wow, these are all interesting contributions. Having a central system for distributing goods and services will make every zones in the country to have equal access to this products and services unlike what we have now that there is uneven distribution of social amenities.

Sisterly!
I greet you specially 😅
I don't know why I'm mistaking this weekend engagement to be an election ground 🤣🤣

The English too plenty!

😂😂😂😂.. Election fit happen..
But na you go bring ballot paper 😂

🤣🤣🤣
No problem, just send the money to my wallet and I'll get it ready! 😁

See what I'm talking about 😏🤦‍♀️, you too like money 🤪.

My fellow money lover
How far na 😁

🙄🙄🙄 Be there looking for partners in crime 🤪.

No oo @merit.ahama go ring the election even though say she nor wan ring am because she nor know about ballot papers 🤪🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️.

And Merit wept! 😂

But why did she wept? 🙄

I dinur know o 🙄

Talking about election, have you gotten your voters card?🤔🤔🤔😜😜😜

😂😂😂
I couldn't o
I will get it after election 🤣🤣

Oh my goodness 🤭😂😂😂😂
You are not a good Nigerian citizen oo 😂😂😂😂....see how we just missed your vote now! Can you imagine..oh, you didn't hear that the change begins with me and you?

The change that I've been changing have not been working 🥲😂
Nigeria is beyond repair but it will repair next election time when I've got my voter's card 🤣🤣

Me self I'm not a good citizen at all but I hope to change this time for real 😆😆.
We have lost so many votes, I just hope it doesn't stop the right person from winning 😒.

Hmmmm

I just hope it doesn't stop the right person from winning 😒.

Hmmm, deeper thought
You guys aren't helping matters
One vote means a lot for this race

We can't be shouting for change without taking actions

Let's do our part practically
Honestly, I am tired of suffering in Nigeria, and I believe my vote is a little action. If everyone do this , then we can be hopeful 👌

Gberaga 😆😆, after election, to do wetin?

To set binance wallet 🥲🤣
Wetin concern me concern election normally

Ah!! See leaders of tomorrow naw 🤣🤣🤣

No I haven't oo, it is well. It's recently that my mind have changed towards election, I just hope the few that were able to get theirs make the right choice.

Hahaha, this girl nor funny at all 😂🤣🤣, election ground ke, how election ground dey be? 🤪.

Big big grammar dey fly for the ground 🥲

Hahaha, wahala oo, my sister will not disgrace me, IJN, Amen 😂😂.

You've been successfully disgraced before the prayer 🥲

Hahaha, I will tell them that I have not spoken to you before then so you were just blabbing 🤪.

I tell you. That's why one part is feeling marginalised and the other are holding on to power.

It is well 🙂.

First of all, I want to specially appreciate your presence here, this is my first time seeing you here and I really do hope you are here to stay because we do need you here, I need you here 🥰.

Back to what you have said, ya that is what we see around, we don't see the need of developing every state in our beloved country, most of these leaders just focus more on their own, how selfish, even when they know they can help as many as they want to.

I know there will be changes henceforth because as the saying goes, change begins with you and I so let's do well to contribute our quota for the betterment of ourselves and others.

Shey you for nor just write post ni 🤔

This post (I mean, this comment) should be read by many more people in a community (Hive naija) as I'm sensing a good president in you 😅

You know, I could go on and on

I said it o 😂😂😂
Please ride on Sir, we want to hear from you!

Your manifestation is perfect, you should campaign... We would vote for you 😁

Ahahah. Nigeria needs the like of us. Unfortunately, I didn't have up #100million to buy form to contest as president.

100 million?! 😳

If the person nor win, that money don go? Wonderful!

I nor campaign again, I be dey think am before 😂😂😂

Ahaha. You see why things keep going wrong in our beloved nation. The price to pay is too expensive. That's why the aspirants keep siphoning public funds and making public infrastructure collapse.

Too bad
Wahala nor dey really finish for this country 🥲

At all, I just pray say make the few of us when get the right mindset not sell am because of money too by either keeping quiet or joining the masses.

Exactly!! Before winning, they are almost bankrupt and that's why they don't think twice before embezzling funds.

God bless Nigeria and our leaders 🙏.

That's why we need to make leadership begin to look beyond money.

I totally agree with you sir, but now the economy has made almost everyone value money more than the well being of our beloved country.

Hahaha, see who wan campaign? Even if you nor go pay, you forget say you nor get voters card? 🤪🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️.

🤣🤣🤣
Them send you to me this morning?
Go tell them say I nor dey house

Yes oo, I don go tell them say I nor see you but when I reach there, I nor see them 😏.

😂😂😂😂 asin ehn, 100million for show

The thing taya me 😪🤦‍♀️.

No be small

As in ehn, it is well.

Oh my! 100 million? Seriously?

I never knew they pay such huge amount of money to be a candidate for being a president. That needs to change, we should be more concerned of the qualities than the quantity. No wonder I heard some people borrow money during campaigns and all, ah! It is well.

That's what they pay to get the presidential form and it is not guarantee they will at the primary elections.

Ah, that's too much oo, something needs to be done about it sha oo.

This is be cause there is too many ambitious politicians. So, the reduce their numbers, the hike in form price is initiated.

Hmm, that's still some how, I thought of that as the reason but to me it's lame.

When e enter power, na different person.

He would be no longer be @mrenglish but a mathematician of money.

🤣🤣🤣
Very possible

Yes but it won't happen, I believe @mrenglish 😊.

🤣😅😂 See you ooo.
Seriously, I have a dream that one day Nigeria will be great and attain her rightful place in the comity of nations.
As such, we would take responsibility for every action made, for our generation and generation next.

It's a matter of being alive to witness that dream

Of course, we have to be alive first before dreams came be actualized.

That's right, na who get live dey dream.

Since we are all alive, then we must have dreams.

Of course once you are dead you are dreamless, lolz.

we don hear that one ,e don tey, still e dey worst go, instead make we dey pray for God's grace

We don hear but we never do, nai make e dey worse dey go, even God nor go fit do anything for us, na we need to put our words into action.

No talk so, an Gid just never get their time. When he gets their time, them self go hear am

I know how powerful God dey but he nor dey put body when we dey prove know know, so until we do wetin he want, na only we go dey do ourselves.

God hate disobedience and when e nor wan stop, he go come make us get strong hearts.

I don't have a dream, I know that one day Nigeria will be great, nothing good comes easy, we just have to remain steadfast.

Steadfastness. That's the world.

Hehehe yes it is and I'm so happy you agreed with me Sir.

I ha e to agree with you. You know, constituency is the mother of invention.

theres nothing money cannot do,

There is, money cannot change the situation of our country!

It's can it change the country, but it can change my own life,

Hahaha, change!

hahaha, you are right, we for pack our self go vote, even run the campaign😂😂

Eggzactly 😂

Hahaha, na the thing be that so.

Wowwwww
All I can say is, kuku come out for the next Nigeria president 😂😂
These are well thought out plan bro, if we have a president with this mentality, Nigeria will become great again 😂👍

Abi ooo. It is just sad that we put the wring people in power. Maybe its not our fault though. Our votes don't count. The whole system is corrupt.
I think Nigeria will be great again. When the time is ripe, rewound take our destiny in our hands.

Nigeria will be great again, that I am positive about 🙏✌️

Me too.
But the question is when?
Someone had posited that if the youth refuses to take the nation in 2023, then it will be very difficult.

Hopefully next year
It's possible if only we should also talk to God in prayer with the same energy we use to campaign 👌

Yes ooo. That's the first point of call. Without His intervention, where heading nowhere.

You are right, we should include God in everything we do but we should also bear in mind that God loves actions more because it's only when we do something that he can help.

No doubt babe
Action is needed

That person was not far from the truth, the youths are the leaders while the elders are the experienced ones and their responsibility is to advise the youth and not to deprive them from leading, but the reverse is the case.

As youth we now do the advising while the elders do the leading, that's one area where things have gone totally wrong.

Me too, I'm totally in support without any doubt 👌💯

That's just it, Nigeria would conquer someday and that day is not far, I can feel it.

You are absolutely right Ma'am, but the problem be say, the current situation nor go make am possible for our beloved brother to run for that position, we need to do some repositioning 😪.

Okay thanks for the mention. Nigeria matter tire me, cause when we write and write about what to change, they don't see.but you got great plans for Nigeria you should go and contest na 😀

We don't have to be tired. It's our nation and we should proudly defend her. Those who are taking our national treasury for granted would have to be brought to book and driven from public offices.
It begins with you.

Yeah, I know that, it's just by grace some of us are bearing the brunt of the nation's failure. I know, God will help us. . thanks @mrenglish @hopestylist

I understand you dear but we just have to be strong for our country. You are welcome dear.

The pain is everywhere. What we have is the drive to get to our destinies by keep believing.

Yea , everywhere o.God help us in getting there

Wow, this was similar to what I just said to her to, I'm happy we both think in the same way, but I give you all the credit sir 🙌.

This mindset is not bad but it will stop people from taking some actions. We should not give up especially when we don't do anything but hear, we should both hear and do that is the only way change can truly come.

Let the change begin with you and I, in other words, let the work begin with you and I. We can start from somewhere, we just have to start.

I understand you ,but when we tried to make a difference, the higher ups don't let it count.🤔

You do not have to make a difference in the whole world, we just need you to make the difference with the people around you, that's all.

Yeah u are right. 🥰😚

thanks for tagging me , i wouldnt have known discussions where on goi ng

you for just kuku contest for this coming presidential election. the country would have been a better place

Abi oo. Being the president comes with a lot of responsibilities but one needs to rise to the occasion.

That's right, let's just hope that things starts to fall in place now even as we start implementing all we know we can do.

Yeah true,

That's the realization public office holders must get to make progress. Until they get this, we may just keep drifting deeper into penury.

Hmmm. With God help , we will get the right governance

It's really so nice to have you here dear, I'm also happy to see you are engaging well with others, that's really nice.

I do hope to see you next weekend with a friend to make the engagement more fun-nier, hehe.

You are welcome to the Hive engagement party 🎉🎉.

You're welcome dear, I hope so too 🥰.

Good morning dear.

Good morning to you too. Thanks

Smiles 😊, you are welcome dear.
