The role religion creates for you in life is to worship the God in your life, it makes you believe that if you can pray the most you will achieve the most both here on earth and in the afterlife. If you use your brain that your creator gave you, you will agree with me that this is a big deception! Nigeria has been ranked as the most religious nation on planet earth yet it has achieved nothing but ranking as the world’s capital of poverty! Churches and Mosques are littered all over every streets and villages in Nigeria yet poverty is the ruling king of our streets and villages. I believe in verifiable facts and not religious philosophies.

Have we ever sat down to ponder why the Whites who brought us these religions are not ranking as the most religious countries in the world yet they are the First World Countries while the most religious countries are among the Third World Countries ? Why haven’t the prayers they brought to us gotten us above them? For me the answer is in the game of football!

In football, nobody believes that prayer can change the game rather it is believe that the collective effort of the team members is the sole determiner of the outcome of the game so everybody brings their A game to each outing. In football , the performance or the mistake of an individual player can make or ma a game. That’s why you don’t see top players and coaches coming out in press conferences to say with God we will win this game. You can’t hear that the team that won prayed more and God rewarded them with a win…. Nobody says that but we do so in Nigeria.
The life of the Europeans who ironically brought Christianity to us is not measured by how religious you are. It is more like it is in football, it is measured on your skills, passion for what you do and the level of determination to put in your best to make a difference!
