I can list the various domestic
and international achievements
over the last five decades and
in doing so, deftly justify the
debit side. But fortunately I am
not a politician. I am merely a
concerned citizen and as such, I
must examine the current state
of affairs prevailing around me.
As a citizen, I can only
objectively view those aspects
that affect my daily existence.
Unfortunately, the predominant
feeling in the daily viewing
department is not one of
elation.
As the golden
year draws to a close, I see a
nation with an amorphous mass of
resident fat cats biding their
time, looking for an excuse to
party.
I see a
cynical nation complaining about
leadership but refusing to look
at the state of their own homes
and streets.
I see those
that have the means to change
the system but have grown lazy
and corrupt and like a pack of
mangy hyenas, snap at each other
and impatiently wait for an easy
handout.
