Aspect i don't like about my country
well my perception is that you can never find a perfect country even if your country is excelling their would still be a gap space that needs to be filled
- The fact i am saying this doesn't mean i am condemning my country in this life you cant see something that is hundred percent which would suit your taste there is always some gap spaces to feel one thing i would say i don't like about my country is the aspect where we have some corrupt leaders who only think about them selves and their families, and because of this a lot of people have tarnished images of millions of Nigerians that we are very corrupt and that really gets me upset you can't just use one person as an Example and tarnish the images of other citizens.
- I don't really like the Fact that in Nigeria before you get a Job you need to know some one that knows some one
- I also hate the fact that their are terrorist attacks in the North eastern part of Nigeria due to some religious and tribal sentiments but i have a strong believe that my country would be restored back someday i believe in perseverance and resilience.
