In few days time would be your birthday unlike the tradition, I would not be publicly celebrating your birthday because of the course presently on ground #endpolicebrutality #endsars #endbadgovernanceinNigeria #Nigeriaundercontruction. The reason is simple parents have lost their children towards this struggle and it could have been myself. So for that reason I would assume I died with the ones that have gone for now.
Until a time where the lives that have gone wouldn't be a waste. Obviously Nigeria is under construction and I can not go party under these serious times of building. My brothers & Sisters need me more right now. And just like Christ in Mathew 12:48, "These are my true bothers & sisters".
I thought the biggest gift from me to you would be to take you abroad for your first trip to the western community, but in recent time I am beginning to have a rethink that the biggest gift after all to you, might just be to create the western world here in Nigeria ( A country described by American President "Donald J Trump as a shit hole")
I know your generation could have done more than 'yes ma/yes sir (zombies)' approach but I am also grateful for the sacrifice you made to stay on a job for 35 years so you could raise Me. I am indeed grateful for what you have to endure to guarantee good education, food, water, electricity etc...
Going forward my generation want to do more than just that, we want to build a Nation, a Country and truly indeed a Home. So, our approach would be different because we are trying to achieve a different result/goal. My advice to you don't discourage me (sorosoke generation) just Pray.
From Your Son
To the Super Mum of my Time
