All we need.

    We need fewer analysts and more activists, people who practice, not cower behind excessive words and defensive antics.

    We need visionaries, not more critics, those who see not only what is erroneous but how to fix it.

    We need not conflict, blood nor martyrs but people who live to speak up when it matters.

    Let’s welcome change, a turn in our thinking. Where there is no more pleasure in merely living.

    It’s time to choose, to take a stand. We can’t do everything but let’s do what we can.

    There’s no other solution to all the tension, the fear we feel is only promoting the infection.

    Let’s get to the point where it is over, where we can walk in the open and not look for cover.

    Let’s get to the juncture where enough is enough, where we choose what is right even when it gets tough.

    It’s not about you and certainly not about me, it’s about the kind of Nigerians you and I can be.

    That we will not only watch our brothers and commiserate with their pain, but will help all we can when there is nothing to gain.

    Today let’s look in our hearts and to ourselves be true. Let’s seek what is right and what is right do.
