A national anthem is meant to be a symbol of unity and of pride in every sovereign country. It is so important that at medal ceremonies

of major sports events, the national anthems of the gold, silver, and bronze medalists are played during which the citizens of that country and non-citizens in the arena stand at attention.

Not a single day goes by without anyone with open ears and eyes is awash with news of insecurity happenstances all over the country. While one is still musing over these incessant episodes of abductions, one is bewildered by our weakening health infrastructure in spite of the brush up with COVID-19.

While the naira value to the dollar is depreciating, the price of fuel and the price of food is increasing. It is not surprising that as the level of unemployment rises, the level of insecurity is on the increase. Young graduates are left unemployed six, eight, ten years after graduation. Those who get jobs are not paid for months and when they do get paid, part of their salaries are still held back.

The cascading effects of decades of inefficient leadership have left our health systems in a weakened state. Most of our health infrastructures have been commissioned by our political elites and yet they do not trust the same health system. If they cannot trust it enough to use it, why not do something about it? This is a poverty of empathy within.
