May God help these lost generations\u00a0and a bunch of untamed loose canons to receive common sense and get understanding. I will continue to preach that Igbo must imbibe cultural competence and emotional intelligence in Nigeria. They must learn how to build bridges across Nigeria and not burning bridges.
