HYPOCRISY, NOT LONGER RELIGION


On this day Saturday, 11th of February, 2017 at 02:22am GMT+1.  I type this article with keen sleeplessness as a result of my observation towards the essence of a better Living for every offended being out there, especially we of the Third World Countries  and in Nigeria as my scope.
  This article would be as much as possible concise and clear as crystal without any sense of sentiment but with astute sensitization of our mind for a better morrow. This article is written under mental duress and my mind has found it difficult to cope making me however sleepless for hours.
   HYPOCRISY according to Merriam Webster dictionary can be said to be feigning to be what one is not or to believe what one does not :  behavior that contradicts what one claims to believe or feel, however way leading one to live a fake life or purpose of existence. On the other hand, RELIGION short defined can be referred to as a belief system. That is, whatever one believes in that seems to be supreme above him or her.
  Nigerian Religious homes under have however turned hypocritical via there programmes and services of worship over time perhaps because of the silence of the Regulatory Boards meant to be in duty to checkmate there activities. Hypocritical in the sense of making "noise"  during resting hours which they call night vigils both in the Christian way and in the Islamic doctrine.
  Neighborhood now no longer find sound sleep due to "their"  use of loudspeakers or megaphones during the vigils. Some vigils would last as long as 4 - 5 hours straight which is almost close to having a better sleep of not lesser than 6 hours.
Many Nigerians out there are faced with same challenges in one way or the other even night clubs and ceremonial parties and "celebrations"  are not left out of the talk. I decided to pick up my writing accessories to put this down-forward as a disturbed youth who had left for work before 7am and returning home as late as 9pm, tried to find sleep only to be woken up by loudspeakers from a Neighboring religious home. More than two at same interval. Now the question is which of them would lead me to heaven almost immediately this night?
  These religious leaders should be reasonably considerate enough to understand that a programme held in d middle of the night already got its totality of attendant. No one would arise at 1am to join because he or she enjoyed the loudness of those speakers.
   Recommendations should be considered because there you are "worshipping"  your supreme being in the expense of other people of different ideological orientations.
If these disturbed youths or Nigerians find it difficult to discharge their civil duties and obligations at their various places of work in the bid of dozing because of some "silent"  night sleep, you will be part of those that would turn up to pages of newspapers and social media to say the civil service has turned nap-zones. Please let's be considerate in tolerating ourselves, let religious home treat the atmosphere at night with love, let Sister Night discharge her duties accordingly under the watch of the Moon.
   Let's make Nigeria tolerable lest the best lots ready to discharge wholly take their exit. Development begins as change begins from you and I to build a better people of a greater nation.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA 🇳🇬
GOD BLESS AFRICA 🌍
