RELIGION REGRET

My dad is the type of person you can always go to for any discussion, but please only do so at your leisure time because he always have a lot more to say than you anticipated. He is much more like a Lion hearted Manager. On one of our merry-go-round chats, I asked him “Sir how come Nigerians are so religious, so religious that even religion itself is regretting the day it set its feet on the shore of this country as it has no breathing space whatsoever. Yet as religious and spiritual as we are, height of indiscipline, corruption, theft (I have to separate the two because I have a feeling it will soon be an offence in Nigeria using those two terms synonymously), fraud, lies etc. all reside in this country”. It's so surprising seeing religious big wits getting themselves in the tangle of religious sentiment. I went further to ask him “Sir, how did we find ourselve in this situation of having to elect a public office holder and using where basically our strength lies (religion) as a tool for stratification”. There my question for the day ends.
