How many of you went to American schools, learn American English & live American way? What have you gained ? You succeed in forgetting yourself

Even the American system we inherited is largely to blame for confusion in Nigeria. We have our ways, but we abandoned it. We need ours
Countries like China, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, even European states like Turkey, Germany and Russia have to abandon the American system before they get it right.

We should not worry on their ban, it’s liberating, we should depend our ourselves & create our systems too.
American education system leaves us with joblessness, American lifestyles destroy our families & cultures, American governance destroys our collective public good.

We became perpetual borrowers of everything. We borrow dollars, lifestyle, education etc. It’s not working for us.
It’s high time we discover ourselves, create our processes, systems & frameworks that’s works for Nigerians, by Nigerians from Nigeria.

We are defendants of great kingdoms & empires. We have been economically better than them before colonialism, why are we afraid? We need ours.
Stay there and keep lying to yourself that because you went to American school, learn American accents, you’re better than ordinary Nigerians who respect thier cultures & values. You simply succeeded in forgetting yourself and becoming a stranger.

Dear Guys,

Let’s Nigerianize!
