Nigerian actress and activist, Kate Henshaw, has expressed sadness over the state of the nation.

Henshaw said there was nothing to show for Nigeria’s 26 years of uninterrupted democracy, stating that the country’s democratic experience means nothing to majority of the people in the country.

The actress made her feelings known on Channels Television’s special Democracy Day programme.

The actress was of the view that there was nothing to celebrate in terms of the longevity of democratic rule if it continues to fall short of addressing citizens’ needs.

The actress wondered of what use is Nigeria’s democracy if it is so detached from the people and makes no impact on their lives.

“There is no middle class and we cannot tell any more lies to ourselves,” she said,” adding that every sector of the economy has been in shambles.

“There must be justice, equity, and security for the people — for their lives and property.

“But I still hold on to hope that we will have a country to live in, for our children — something they can build on.”
