SCHOOL NA SCAM‼️(What everyone believes VS the hidden truth)

To talk is always cheap. There is nothing like you having the experience yourself to know the consequence of the things you say or do just from your perspective of life.


There is really more to what you see.


It’s very possible for you to think that in this time that we are, no one or place would be without internet even any network to make calls. That’s probably because of the regular access you have to it.


As an undergraduate or secondary school student, you might even see your going to school as a waste of time. This is probably because you feel like they are not teaching you how to make money overnight. 


As a youth with so much vibrancy and high self esteem, someone who knows what she wants for her life, looking down on others might be easy for you. This is also possible because you’ve been exposed to a certain knowledge and you believe so much in this knowledge that it has helped greatly in shaping the way you think hence giving a beautiful outcome of your life.


Now, LISTEN.


Everything is a BIG DEAL!

READ IT AGAIN.


I mean everything that seems normal and even complain of as being unsatisfied with is a BIG DEAL to someone out there.


I consider it a privilege to enjoy everything I benefit from right now even if I desire more, I can’t help but always be thankful.


I’m writing to you right now to bring to your consciousness or remembrance that you are not the only one existing here.


There are others existing and living like they’ve been cut off from the world due to various reasons.


To a low income community, education is a BIG DEAL. 

You want to know why?


It’s because this is like the only means of LIBERATION for them.

Their environment doesn’t permit them to dream as big as they should.

What do they even want to dream about when they are not even aware of what is going on out there.

They are not aware of the level of civilisation that you and I enjoy.


Imagine a young boy who finds life fulfilment from joining cult.


Or a young girl who feels like she has made it in life when a man sleeps with her in fact she would even be begging you just to have sex with her.


EXPOSURE is everything.

KNOWLEDGE is power.


Before you complain, think of the lives who have no access to the little you have.

Instead of complaining, can we begin to think of solutions to these problems.


As a youth, can we begin to take actions to extend the benefits of civilisation we enjoy to those who are not even aware of the meaning talk-less of spelling it.


I’ve over emphasised this in my previous posts about how you should start with where you are and what you have.


Start thinking of how you can use what you know and have to create a transformational change to someone, a society.


You are so relevant and needed in these times.


I’m rooting for you.

Feeding the less privileged is not sustainable?

On the 28th of May 2022, I went along with a non-profit I volunteer for called TEAK Foundations for a charity event at Bariga(Lagos) to celebrate Children's day with the children in the area. Of what use is feeding them just once and for them to be hungry tomorrow "I often thought". It feels like a waste of time. It feels like they are not being helped. I often thought that they should be empowered if they are adults so they can begin to feed themselves and for children, it would be better if a farm or food bank can be created as this would be quite sustainable.  Looking at it from this angle would make you agree with me that charity events are not sustainable but does it make them unnecessary? No, it is still very important and valid. As a non-profit, we might not be able to scrap the daily hunger but we were able to leave them with an unforgettable experience for just that day, we were able to make them not hungry for just that one moment. All it takes for a life to be ...

Feeling unmotivated?

 I love God (so she claims), and I want to live my life solely for God. Yet, she finds herself being indisciplined and doing things that either waste her time or are of no value. Yes, she knows the importance of having a well-structured priority list. She isn't even sure if getting easily distracted is her problem or if she is just confused. She has a vision. She has a goal. She has positive intentions. All of her intentions are for the benefit of mankind. Yet, she finds herself still going in circles and it seems like she isn't growing or going towards the fulfillment of her vision. What would you do if you are here? Or should I say, what would be your best advice to her? My Advice. Honestly, this can happen to anybody it happens to almost everybody including your favorite people. The only reason why you haven't noticed is that they were able to still do the needful despite these things that happens to them. The key here is Self - discipline. I'm usually blown away whe...

IT’S CLOSER TO YOU THAN YOU THINK

  I’m never going to have dreams! Exclaimed by a little girl who was watching the TV with her parents one beautiful afternoon. She was seeing the news report about the result from the just concluded election and the lives that were lost from the whole process. Right there, she made a decision not to be involved in anything that has to do with contributing to the society. She would rather prefer being comfortable in her own house with her family and minding her business. Many youths are like this today. You don’t want to get involved. Everything is now SCAM as it’s popularly called in Nigeria today. We no longer believe anything neither do we want to believe. We’ve come to embrace the mentality of “anything that does not concern me does not concern me” I.e we’ve so much embraced a selfish mentality as long as we have food to eat. The truth is, it isn’t our fault! The dirty stereotype the society has painted in our faces are so green in our memory that we can’t erase it even if we wa...
