Exactly 50years ago
(Aug•28•1963), Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King spoke glowingly about his dream for
a better nation, the USA.
What is amazing is that MLKing
dared to dream for his nation even though he was NOT the President of the USA.
He was NOT a politician or a government official. He had NO position of
authority. He was NOT voted into any office nor was he elected by anyone.
He was just an American citizen
with a dream for a desirable change for his nation.
What was special about his dream
was that he truly BELIEVED.
MLK believed his dream against
all odds ... against the precedence of history and against the tyrannical force
of government policy and the brutal beatings by the police and the prevailing
culture of oppression and segregation at the time he dared to dream.
If Dr. King could have a dream
for his nation, then so can YOU.
You also can dream of a better
nation and then ACT to bring your dream to pass, like MLK did.
If YOU can only believe and act
in faith, then YOUR dreams WILL come to pass, as the dreams of citizen MLK and
citizen Nelson Mandela and citizen Mahatma Ghandi...all their dreams came to
pass...and so can yours.
So I ask you tonight... WHAT IS
YOUR DREAM FOR A BETTER NIGERIA?
