This brings me to the crux of dis thread.
How do we #MakeNigeriaGreat?
It's not about party or tribe.
It's about you & I.
Let's change our paradigm.
Let's rewrite the narrative.
Let's live by the teachings of our respective religion.
#LetsMakeNigeriaGreat

Be sincere.
Be fair.
We can #MakeNigeriaGreat.../9

If we sincerely resolve to #MakeNigeriaGreat, we may not need #Confab to do the right thing.
