One amazing problem of Nigeria is the youth's total dependency towards little monies shared to them in place of long time corrosive governance.
Nigeria 's population is estimated at over 150 million people which the youth constitutes 80 percent of its population.
Any country on earth mostly depends on its youths for it's successful portfolio. The youths are the frontline citizens of a territory, they are preferably refer to the spinal cord (backbone) of the country and they are those that can decide on the wellbeing and wrong-being of the country, the country's rise and fall depends on the strength of the youths.
Nigeria youths are people of wonderful heritage and culture, Nigeria has produced handsome, beautiful, strong, healthy and charming vibrant youths with good home training and advocacy.
Its a round over applause credit, but most and i mean 90% are totally deviating from that for monetary purchases, and that have given the wise leaders the ability to manipulate and preprogram the youths. it's isn't their overall fault persay because of the situation of the nation, Nigeria.
Nigeria youths have been studied and understood by their leaders for their various vulnerability and that gave our leaders the magnificent power to rule over us as wanted.
Nigeria youths are affected by:
The listed effects above have statistically caused harm to the youth race and therefore the effects are used as a tool against the youths.
The factor has caused serious problem in the society which has caused the downfall of the country. Nigerian youths have been handcuffed by the leaders in the sense that they have to come seek for their assistance even before taking their breakfast. In what essence?
In this 21th century, money is so much needed in anything you are to do as a person, in the sense that you can't move a kilometer without including funds.
The leaders understood that and therefore seized the youth's assess to wealth. In Nigeria currently we have over 31.22 billion dollars in our foreign reserve which when converted to our currency its over 10 trillions of naira, that aside.
Each state in Nigeria has it's own exclusive yearly budget to sufficiently serve it's states, aside that, billions of naira were released to each state in Nigeria as their Paris Club Fund recoveries but still with all these;
The masses pockets are empty.
The state government workers salaries are very low and stagnant, most workers are still not paid for solemnly serving the state for over 7 months over their little expected salaries.
The electricity is still as the same as it use to be for passed decades, very poorly instable.
Lack of water on households even when we are surrounded by dams etc.
All these are done to cripple and handcuff the masses to have total control of them.
They know the youths weakness and therefore used it against them to have total say.
Since the wealth is being hidden from the masses, the youths have to come kneeling down to get their audience in supporting each and everyone of them just to have suger in their cup of coffee. With this, they are being worshipped in return for money and not for love.
Its a very sad thing that this is yet controllable. Children/Teenagers are not sent nowadays without expecting their own cuts, parents do not trust their kids anymore as they feel they are going to be cheated or hit by their offsprings, because it has caused mental and psychological illness in the society.
This have given the forum for the leaders to have 100% percent control over the society entirely.
A lot, so much youths want to be billionaires overnight without working as return and these makes them venturers of mini-thefts, massive robbery threats, internet scams, kidnappings etc. They want to be wealthy so as to follow the footsteps of the leaders in having full control of the society. The leaders are aware of these but slumbers on it because they feel it's the best option to have full control over the masses. They raise their hands above with wealth to unreachable heights and wants the masses to keep jumping and aspiring on collecting the wealth when they already know its impossible, this brings about their false promises to the desperate youths and causes them to hooliganism and political touts. It is made to understand that even if you pill off the skin of a hungry poultry, he will still follow you tirelessly just to have the little grains you have at hand, that is the same ideology used to drive Nigeria youths. It's high time the youths face the reality and stop aspiring for impossibilities. Togetherness with truthfulness is only what will improve our states. The people you are looking up to also suffered to make it better for themselves and their existing families.
Youths are worst on this particular topic, they value not relationships and have embraced cheat and deception as their livelihood which is known for the characters of the devil. A country or setup can never grow when insincerity is put forward, this also goes to the leaders who deceive their followers for their fake promises and unnecessary wickedness, we know you do that to get your powers and for your political interests but you need to understand that you must not do that to be in power, working for your people and believing in yourselves will be the only way to save yourself from bad Godfatherism, when you have the total support from your people via your good works and sincerity, you shall set your own empire and legacy with love and protection, you will have those that can voluntarily die on behalf of you.
A Lots are losing their respective lives and talents out there just because of you, make it a trial by sincerely giving them what they want and see the end result. You shall overrule to your satisfaction and even beyond.
Nigeria is my country, Nigeria is an extremely blessed nation unlike others which are blessed too and Nigeria deserves our full attention. Nigeria will be great if only we stand to make it great, I know we can do it, I know we can stand for ourselves because we are courageous, I know we can be good to each other as we are from one womb for cry-out-loud
We have a lot of outstanding youths that are best for the jobs but all are been castaway all in the name of politics and power
I have hundreds of my better-off but all have no privilege all in the name of an unjustified injustice.
Nigeria can be the best when best formulas are applied, it could be the All-Mighty-Formula, it could be the Addition-Subtraction Formula, etc.
haha funny, all can be applied just to ensure the success and development of this nation, Nigeria.
So Arise O Compatriots.
