What is your Nigerian dream?

By Shally A.  Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily or voluntarily in the mind. A dream is an intensity that burns in the soul. Dreams are seeds for future harvest. Somehow we all have created a dream of what we want to achieve in life and maybe like me places we want to journey to before we die. It is beautiful to burn with passion for a personal dream because it drives and compels you. It gives life meaning. But beyond our personal dreams what are our collective dreams? That dream that unites us and creates a common vision and goal. A dream that breaks language, cultural, religious and racial barriers. A dream that builds nations and sustain generations. United we stand, divided we fall! I strongly believe to build our nation we must have a common dream of who we hope to be and what we want to attain. We must have a Nigeria dream, a Nigerian ethos or idea. My question is, what is the Nigerian dream?
