Dear Secretary of State
I write to apologize to the government of the United States through the State Department for expressing my views regarding recent democratization process in Nigeria. I shouted for help because I know that Democracy was not designed to promote lawlessness and corruption and humiliation and killing of the vulnerable and the less-privileged. 1 wanted the United States to defuse the rising tension. I have always displayed excellent citizenship by promoting democratic ideals of this great nation, recognizing that democracy is the driver of civilization. In his Message to the U.S. Congress, January 6, 1937, President Franklin Roosevelt stated “Civilization cannot go back: civilization must not stand still…it is our task to perfect, to improve, to alter when necessary, but in all cases to go forward.” He further stated, “The United States of America, within itself, must continue the task of making democracy succeed.
