It has been a while i posted here, but i would endeavor from time to time to begin an assignment to do that more often. Today's topic is on the Hajj and pilgrimage trips sponsored by the federal government of Nigeria. Every year millions of dollars are spent on the trips to Jerusalem by Christian followers and the trips to Mecca by Muslim followers by the Nigerian government. I think the time has come to do away with this, we only ought to look around us and ask simple and basic questions. Can the money we spend on this trips be used to improve our public hospitals, our public roads, our public schools, public amenities etc. The Nigerian government ought to focus on what is most paramount, thereafter the excess may then be considered for things of this nature. I feel that the nation needs help in a lot of areas and all leakages must be blocked, I consider these funds spent on pilgrimages as unnecessary. My advice for the federal government of Nigeria is to henceforth stop this high spending on pilgrimage and focus on what is most dear to the lives of Nigerians, what affects us daily and divert the funds to improving our basic amenities.
May God bless Nigeria,
The Reformed Nigerian.
