BASIS OF OUR REFORMATION
Every reformation has some basis upon which it will be carried out and for Nigeria to have a successful reformation that will bring transformation, it must tackle the existing problem from the root. And for this to be possible, a formidable formula must device by the reformers if they want to achieve the desired result.
After analysing our nation’s problems it becomes obvious that we Nigerians are problem to Nigeria and Not Nigeria problem to us. Since it was so, we Nigerians need to undertake some actions that will affect us individually and also affects others as well. We must also pass through some life changes process that will enable enableome better than what we are today. In other words become better citizens of Nigeria that will work towards achieving a great nation.
INTERCESSION
Intercession in a lay mans language is the process of praying for the good of someone with or without the knowledge of the person. We all believe that Nigeria needs prayers to compliment our good actions in other to overcome the challenges facing it today so as to realize a greater tomorrow.
The principle at work in intercession is that of being a vessel through which someone else receives something from God and from man. Since it is so, what every Nigerian must do is to take out time to pray on behalf of somebody, especially leaders: praying that the concerned will be endowed with qualities that is needed for a better leadership. Then this will also provide for the person offering the prayers with the same quality that he is asking upon someone else. Being the vessel ; as we know that contents can not pass through a vessel to somewhere without first touching the vessel first. That is to say that great change will occur when he who is being inteceded for and he who interceds receives what they are praying for and it will reflect in the life of our nation. Imagine when over one hundred million Nigeria embark on an intercessory prayer for one sole aim of greatness for our nation. Just imagine the change it will bring. For me it will be tremendous.
REHABILITATION
Every institution in Nigeria needs rehabilitation. But for this to happen those who are manning those institutions should be rehabilitated so as to have individuals who are not deformed to work on those institutions. This is because a deformed individuals amount to a deformed institutions and a deformed institutions amount to a deformed nation. That is to say a deformed Nigerians is equal to a deformed Nigeria. If a rehabilitating process is not fashioned out for the current Nigeria work force we will never realized a greater tomorrow. This is because corruption, lukewarmness, favoritism and unpatriotic virus have so much infected our nation’s current work force that it requires serious rehabilitation to correct. As a result they have caused unproductiveness and stuntedness for our nation. And this necessitated that a radical rehabilitation should be embarked upon. If we truly want to see a great Nigeria in the near future.
