“Nigeria is Awake!” Together for a New Dawn Path: Empowering Development in Nigeria with a successful presidential campaign

Story

The lack of food, a failing health system, rampant corruption, and a crumbling education system are just a few of the challenges. The power supply is unreliable, with many still relying on outdated generators to survive and improve their life’s. The roads are treacherous, poverty is widespread, and the economy is in disarray, disorganization have torn communities apart and brothers against themselves with lack of integrity and ethnicity.
