My Final Speech To The World

Good day to you all in Europe, Africa, South America, Greenland, Australia, and in every part of the world. I greet you all wholeheartedly. This speech will be my last before I pass to the great beyond. I deem it fit to address you all on this occasion without any iota of regret.

First and foremost, I want to express and appreciate the love and support I have received this whole year from you all. Your kindness and compassion. As I take.my final breaths, I would like to establish some facts that will help the living and the yet unborn generation to have a reference that the world is incomplete without you. When I say you, I mean humanity.

Let me implore you to shorn violence. It has only destroyed humanity. Those who involve themselves in violence against humanity only ended up in a violent way. Embrace peace in your small corner. From Yemen to Syria to Afghanistan to Iraq and to Israel to Gaza to Northern Nigeria through the Maghreb and to Sudan and Libya and Egypt, humanity has been brutalized with records of deaths and sorrow.

Love is the only language that can heal us all. With the application of love, humanity will conquer fear and worry. Love is conqueror as it covers a lot of sins. Love does not boast, it does not revenge, love does not envy neither does it compete. We are all too much in a competition that we forget the essence of living in the first place. Let love rule.

May I implore you all to live each day with purposeful intention to affect your immediate environment positively. Do to your environment what is expected so that those who are coming behind would see your name written in gold in the sand of time. Appreciate what you have and what nature has given you free of charge. Life itself is a precious and priceless gift, too short to be wasted on grievances and material pursuits.

If you must lead, kindly do that with a heart of gold. Do not forsake the weak and downtrodden. As a leader, you are to protect the powerless and not to oppress them. Life will not forgive you if you maltreat the weak or cheat them. Remember, each moment you live is like a tape recorder.

I believe the world can be a better place if you all will be good people. One good person can breed another good person and with that, it can only get better.

Black or white, tall or short, fat or thin, one thing connects all together. The thing is that we are all humans. Know that life is very fragile. In one minute, it blooms like the morning sun and in another minute, it fades away like the smoke. For this reason, let me kindly ask that you give more attention to the teeming youths who have not been productive engaged. If we forget that age bracket of humans called the youth, then we are all sitting on a keg of gunpowder.

Live and let others live. The sky is big enough for everyone to fly and spread their wings.

Thank you all as I take this last moment of one to sleep quietly on my bed and pass on to the great beyond. You will all do me one favour, tell your children's children to pass the message on to the next generation.

Thank you, and farewell, my dear friends.
