Our Country Would Be Great If We Do The Right Things
The prophecy is in our hands to determine what we would be. Our country would be great if we do the right things.
~ Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi, General Superintendent, Deeper Christian Life Ministry
Most of us are fond of pointing accusing fingers at the Nigerian government and public officials we condemn and hang over allegations of corruption and other evils. But we are not better than them in our respective homes and workplaces, because we also indulge in our forms and ways of corrupt practices.
How do we treat our fellow Nigerians?
Most of the Nigerian employers who accuse the government of corruption have been found to cheat and exploit their workers by underpaying them and even not paying them salaries for months and years.
We treat our houseboys, housegirls, drivers, messengers and other servants like slaves and we then turn around to accuse the government and public officials of corruption. Are we not fooling ourselves?
Hypocrisy is worse than corruption.
Most of us do not pay our taxes and make frivolous excuses for not doing so.
Most of us cheat when we sit for various examinations.
We know how to find faults in others, but we have done worse things indoors and on the streets.
Let us DO THE RIGHT THINGS IN 2010.
