Why I promised NEVER to depend on Nigeria

Gandhi said and i quote “If we could change ourselves, there is a big tendency the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. … We need not wait to see what others do.”....I think that's the only solution to the trauma we're currently going through in our dear country Nigeria as youths and future leaders of tomorrow.We've waited too much time complaining, leaving almost no time to put things to work.There's this common pledge i can't stop reciting every morning...in fact,you find these pledge everywhere on the walls of my room..it reads.."I promise NEVER to depend on Nigeria"..That's a little weird..right?...Not as weird as it sounds....
 Since i was 12,I've always been opportuned to see things in a different way.Many Generations by virtue of ignorance all their life waited for Nigeria to provide JOBS,FOOD,EMPLOYMENT, SECURITY, SOCIAL AMENITIES and it never came.Must we live all our life hoping?..Must we live all our lives in pain?...I'm not sure its worth it.
Could you please check the picture below and tell me the first thing that came through your mind?
