Why Is It That Positive Success In Nigeria Has Become A Crime - Paradise

Oxford Advanced Dictionary has carefully, simply and systematically explained success as "the fact that you or someone have achieve something that you want and have been trying to do or get".

But yet, Success can be divided into;

1. Positive Success and

2. Negative Success.

And positive success is supposed to be appreciated, celebrated and enjoyed by all regardless of all individal differences but in Nigeria reverse is the case.

We celebrate success according to tribes, religions and states. If an Igbo man succeeds narrowly every other tribe frowns, and throws cheap javeline of jibes at them to neutalize to potency of the success and if Hausa man gets something better other tribes get quick sickness.

Today, I must tell you that success is very much affraid of Nigeria because he knows that when he comes we all will rain abuses on him with tribal insults and jealousy rather than rejoice and celebrates him.

There is a saying that says success bring more success. But I tell you today that celebrated successes brings many more successes.

In Nigeria, anything that hurts a particular tribe other remaining tribes will see it as success. Without have the knowledge that it is a negative success.

We tend to categorize accrding to:

1. Tribes: If Doesn't favour your tribe, don't celebrate it. If it favours your tribe celebrate it. We say we are one but one tribe success/successes hurt(s) you? Why?

2. Religion: This one is another problem. Muslims hit Christians, christian hit muslims. And if Christians are attacked by some muslims the other Muslims in other tribes smile and thumb prints it okay. This is what is called negative success.

Can't we just celebrate simple success? We have abused success in such a way that before he comes into this country he thinks seriously before making a step. And because of this simple reason that is why we all are where we are today.
