Nigeria got her independence in 1960, from a colonial rule by British and had 1st Republic in 1963. Four years later, had the first Civil war which ended in 1970. Amid Civil war, Nigeria was once a promising syate. A time whereby naira is equivalent to one dollar, even after graduation three to four jobs are in secured. Food items are relatively costless and cheap, a thousand naira then buy you alots of stuffs.There was a Nigeria that worked out effectively and efficiently. Birds of the feathers, as America during American and Mexican war in 1814-1816 led to America global hegemony. Though, Nigeria regarded as “Giant of Africa” but how giant have Nigeria being in Economy, Politics, regional power, social infrastructure and currency. Egypt 2011-2012 Revolution, a year mass social movement prior to brutal administration of outbursted Ex president Mohamed Morsi by his Defence Minister Abdel Fatteh El sisi now incumbent president relatively have experienced transformation in important terms.one of the cleaniest country in world happen to be from Africa Rwanda under president Paul Kigame do witnessed genocide, however they have developed to a competitive state in Africa. Nigeria have started experiencing terrorism quite years back, in which deadliest sub saharan terrorist organization widely known as”boko Haram” with propaganda against Western Education with co organisations like Al Qaeda and ISIS or ISIL. Note that the main goal of any terrorist organization is to destruct and destabilize political administration of a government. A saying goes thus “frustration without expression will certainly lead to explosion” happened in Tunisia 2011 revolution a social movement to outburst ex president Zine Al Abiddine Bel Ali who has been in power since independence eventually went on exile prior to demand for a new administration. Nothing comes with easy, great nations and countries have passed through trials and adversaries though some countries unfortunately got ruined up while others survived. for every action there is a reaction, internal crisis is of an overwhelmed country stands for revolution or insurrection at the long run. security in Nigeria hasn’t been so weaked under past administration. Inaugural speech given by incumbent president Muhammadu buhari with the statement” I am for everybody, and for nobody”. ironically the interpretation of it is actually happening.during the 2015 presidential campaign he(Muhammadu buhari) came with a propaganda”change” although realistically changevm has occurred in negative and positive ways in nigeria. However, change could actually be initiated by crisis, internal aggression, violence, conflicts behavior and Freedom from fear unless the president doesn’t know implications and prospects of his agenda. Many nigerians called for “restructuring” whereas something have to happen to break deadlock. Meanwhile mediocrity, sycophancy and hypocrisy has eaten political holders which deteriorated citizens political participation and political culture. Nigeria as of today in government terms no longer practices “Federalism” but practices “Totalitariasm” instead a form government whereby government absolutely controls everything including the citizens life.fulani herdsmen has become a topic to discuss about amid the atrocities and havoc caused by this folks in societies.an average fulani herdsmen prior to cultural background are cattle rearers or breeders infact they value cows more than human lives meanwhile they mainly live in the forest their psychosocial and sociological perspective is quite different from people living in cities and towns. Not only Fulani herdsmen,other set of factions the likes of niger delta avengers and Shiites have troubled Nigeria peace. In 21st century where many things are carried out by technological innovations there is always a reflection of illiteracy in the society such nation or country might not always experience peace because the people live in fear. Importance of education can never be overemphasized it inculcate peace, reduce poverty, increase Political involvement and improve national thinking. countries or nations that can’t create maximum protection for her citizens has lost the legitimacy and sovereignty.do nigerians envisage for new Nigeria or torned Nigeria. Time will tell…

A State where there is external aggression, if it fails to suppress the forces then it would definitely leads to creation of factions that could worsen the sovereignty of the state. According to Oxford dictionary defines “invasion” A military action consisting of armed forces of one geopolitical entity entering territory controlled by another such entity, generally with the objective of conquering territory or altering the established government. Although, Nigeria has not witnessed external military invasion since independence, but the atrocities the Deadliest Sub Suharan Terrorist Organisation widely known as Boko Haram which propaganda is against Western Education is tragedic.After the inception of the incumbent president Federal Capital Territory, witnessed Peace ever since the Terrorist halted their Destruction instincts. Nigeria is regarded as “Giant of Africa” yet still no qualities of being of Giant is found, where a state Governor gave huge sum of money to a faction in order to halt incessant killings and atrocities. they throwned at minor Tribes meanwhile the citizens are languishing in abject poverty. An administration that couldn’t checkmate a superior saddled with the responsibilities for Economic and Financial Crime Commission who embezzled public fund. A country is invaded if the leader of such country possessed more than ten private jets and Expensive cars but his keeps lending from International institutions even as far from unbosom country. A country is indeed invaded if the leader thinks a minimum package will lifts the citizens from penury. where leaders must not be insulted otherwise such entity would be penalized. The amount of graduates nigerian universities produced is mouthwatering but unfortunately fewer graduates have access to full employment under an economy sector. a political Office is a business outfits rather an running credible, transparent, Accountability,fairness, integrity and justice administration. A country is invaded when public office holder keeps embezzling funds but defends the charges levelled against them it was an animal who stoled instead. progress won’t be noticed if their is obstruction of strong institutions a state needs to thrive. A country where the Law makers once proposed a “Hate speech” bill but the development was disrupted by reactions as if the country runs totalitariasm government. The citizens political perception is shaken due to those who held offices. A country is invaded if influential political administrative offices belongs to a Tribe which attest the division for the country, if a country rely on a major source of revenue failing to have distinct alternative plan could meet it debacle. A change is not experience suddenly it takes time to evolve through it however it could be initiated by crisis and unfavorable circumstances, but the time would definitely come where Nigeria would produce and believe civilization is not conquered outside but from within. Nigeria is on verge of experiencing a Revolution is deemed for.

Hope for better Nigeria!!
