I CANNOT HAVE A GREAT WEEK WITHOUT HAVING A GREAT COUNTRY!!!

Hello,

We need to start standing up for our selves and begin to take back our country. I love my country!, I love the fact that i know that i have a country, but it pains my soul just to think that,this same country that i love so much is just simply been destroyed by a bunch of ignorant and self-centered individuals.

Only a hand full of countries in this planet, can resist the kind of punishments and abuses that has been dealth out to a country like Nigeria by these bunch of self-centered individuals with no single string of conscience in their
