Letter to the US Foreign Secretary by a Nigerian Citizen |
|
Dear Mrs. Clinton:
 With all your years in politics, foreign affairs and the resources available to the United States government, I do not think there is anything about Nigeria that I need to tell you. You have read about it and you have been there to see for yourself. You know who the big players are in the country’s world of corruption and you know where they have stashed their stolen wealth. You have openly, and presumably diplomatically, condemned corruption in the country, During your August 2009 visit to Nigeria, you made overt references to the fact that Nigeria’s problems are rooted in its failure to deal with corruption. Just today, while addressing state department employees during a town hall meeting, you again seized the opportunity to tell the whole world about Nigeria’s failure to address the legitimate needs of its people and how such failure is gradually turning the country into a breeding ground for all sorts of undesirable elements. On behalf of millions of Nigerians, I thank you and the Obama administration profoundly for the above efforts. However, there is so much more to be done.

No Longer A Time for Just Prayer |
|
“We have locked ourselves in the sanctuary for too long a time, fasting, praying and preaching for good governance in our nation. That in itself is not evil, but, we need to do more as the salt of the earth and the light of the world. It is time for the true church to come out of the closet and rebuild ancient ruins.” - Tunde Bakare, Pastor of the Latter Rain Assembly.
Nigerians have been taken for a ride for far too long. This is the time to show how civilized we are by enforcing our will on the leaders we elected to listen to our voices. We can no longer sit idly and expect God to come from heaven to save us. God now needs us to act to save ourselves under his guiding hands.
Throughout history and the scriptures, nations have always taken some action to save themselves, but under instructions from God. We have prayed for so long in Nigeria. Let us now rise according to God's purpose to will and to act. Pastor Tunde Bakare has seen this light, by joining the rally to save Nigeria in Abuja on January 12, 2010. Now, the Nigerian government that cannot perform its duties has gone after Pastor Bakare to deny him his fundamental rights, cancelling his radio program in excercise of his freedom of speech, as a result of fear. As free people, we should not allow this. If we allow it, we are still in self-imposed bondage. We should excercise our freedom through civil action.
Take a day off, donate, join any action to save Nigeria. That is the least you can do. |
