WILL I EXPLORE EVEN IF I LOVE MY COUNTRY?

Hi everyone, Welcome to another edition of the Neoxian City Prompt. I missed the last one, but here I am writing this one.
I love this topic so much because it has been a topic of debate for every Nigerian anywhere. We see people talking about the state of the country's economy at any junction; even in any gathering, regardless of what it is, everyone still has something to say about his or her country.

THINGS I LOVE ABOUT MY COUNTRY.

There are a lot of things I love about my country, Nigeria. No matter how bad one may say a country is, there are still things one loves about it.

OUR FOOD.

Don't laugh I am a foodie, so this should be the first thing I love about anything, right? I love the way we have varieties of food, I am from Akwa state in Nigeria and I can say that we are blessed with a lot of rich food, we have the ekpangkukwo, edikakong soup, a gang soup(my favorite), Afia afere {white soup}, editan, atama, etc. These are a few from my own side and looking at other tribes too, the food is to die for this is one thing I so much love about my country.

OUR CULTURE /TRADITION

Nigerian have a variety of culture and traditions some of which are funny and some requires a lot of hands to go into it.

Marriages

In Nigeria, some culture requires three times marriage ceremonies, which is the traditional marriage, the court wedding, and also the church or mosque wedding, even if you are to get married to a foreigner, you still have to do this, I find it fun and entertaining cause with these, the person you are getting married to knows how serious marriage is to the family or country if married to a foreigner.

Languages

Nigeria is blessed with tongues, we have many languages, even some I haven't heard of before, you know it's quite fascinating😉 having over 527 languages, this is really a big thing to me.

Dressing

I believe that when it comes to fabrics, Nigeria has the most colorful fabrics. We also have a very wide and varied sense of fashion, especially in the new fashion industry. Nigerians are fortunate to have these clothes because we can make a ton of designs out of the fabrics, and the way that people dress here is incomparable to any other country and people.

I tell you Nigeria is blessed, these are a few of the things I love about my country.

DOES THIS COUNTRY HAS WHAT WILL HELP ME AS A PERSON?

Of course, it does, I can only attain success by working hard, and putting my best into whatever I want to do, I believe with this motivation I can attain greater heights.

DO I HAVE PLANS TO LEAVE MY COUNTRY

Nothing is stopping me from traveling to other countries if I have the chance to make a lot of money. I will want to go somewhere else where I have a better chance of obtaining or achieving greater things. There is no harm in wanting to change one's environment as long as one is physically able to do so.
If I leave Nigeria, it will be to pursue my education and work to earn more money to support my family and myself.

So, yes, I would like to travel to another country in the hopes of accomplishing greater and greater things.
