As citizens, we all have expectations from the government to provide at least the basic needs for It's citizens but unfortunately, this politician forgets all their promises when they're financially elected, leaving the citizens dejected. They totally forget about the same people who put them in office and just continue their lives like nothing else matter. This week, @hiveghana prompted us to mention three things we expect the government to do for the country this year. Follow along with me as I state the three expectations for my country and the reasons behind it.

The first thing I expect for my country, which is the right of every citizen, is Healthcare. We all know how important healthcare service is because it's life related. Sad to say, we lack proper healthcare centers in Nigeria with many not properly functional, and the government hasn't been able to do anything to address the situation. Just a few weeks ago, there was a strike, and doctors and nurses wouldn't attend to sick ones, even those with emergency situations, because the government wasn't complying with their demands. Lots of lives were lost due to the situation, and many families were broken and shattered.

Situations like this shouldn't occur in this era of technological advancements. The government should provide basic healthcare centers with qualified doctors and nurses to handle patients.

In most cases, those who can afford traveling abroad go to other countries like #india for surgeries because they don't trust the capability of our local doctors. The average and poor Nigerians accept whatever they see since they can afford flying abroad for treatment.

The government owe it to it's citizens to provide good working healthcare centers with amenities so the doctors and nurses can carry out their jobs efficiently.

The second is food and employment. Affordable food is very vital in every nation because food is required for survival. Nobody can do without food, and it's worse when the food isn't easily accessible. Food is so expensive in my country that all your earnings can go in purchases of food alone.

A hungry man is an angry man is a popular statement we all use, which connotes the importance of food. The government should make food affordable and accessible for its citizens. People shouldn't go hungry, beg for food, or use all their earnings for food alone.

We also have a high rate of unemployment in my country. How can a citizen meet up with bills, payment, food, and other utility bills when they are unemployed?

This is the reason why there are so many criminals and scammers looking for an easy way to make money and defrauding others because they are jobless. If these ones are engaged in doing something meaningful, they would have less time thinking about fraudulent activities.

My third expectation for my country is security. The country has failed woefully when it comes to security. There's a high rate of kidnapping and killing presently in my country, especially in the northern region. There are some parts I can't visit in my country because of fear for my life. Local farmers are scared to go to farms because their life is not safe, yes, it has gotten to that point.

This shouldn't be the situation of anyone in the country, and the government should look into the matter very fast so as to put a stop to the killings and insecurity that has plunged the country.

This is my first time participating in this community and be sure to see more of me. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
