A Letter To Late Dr. Nelson Mandela by misteri: 11:26pm On Dec 10, 2013
I stumbled across this letter on a friend's timeline on facebook and decided to share it here. Please what do you guys think?


---------------------------------------------------------------


Dear Dr. Nelson, please when you get to the world beyond, tell Herbert Malculay that the party he founded has been turned to People Destroying Party. Tell Obafemi Awolowo that we now pay school fees without going †ø school. Help me tell Nnamdi Azikiwe that the long wall to democracy he built has fallen, only the cracked fence still stands. Tell Chief Anthony Enaharo that the independent nation he fought for is no more. Tell Alh. Shehu Shagari that boko haram has destroyed his reason for creating NYSC as no one goes to the north any longer. Tell Alh. Ahmadu Bello that our judicial system now favors only the rich. Also tell Baba Fela that Terry G is the new afro beat king. Tell Muritala Mohammed that we still use kerosene to cook and candles to see. Tell King Jaja of Opobo that we are still slaves in our own country. Tell Prof. Iyayi that Federal Govt paid N200 Billion into ASUU account but we never see alert.
Pls tell Saro Wiwa that his south south youths are still
jobless and cashless, tell Dele Giwa that the Nigerian
press has been bought with money. Tell them that we need a quick reply to this letter.
