Ask an average Nigerian child from a middle class or poor background the following question.
"What do you wanna be in Future?".
You will get responses like
I want a President.
I want to be a very rich man....(laughs).
Also, repeat the same question but this time to a child of a wealthy Nigerian parent... You'll get answers like:
"I wanna be a Robotics Engineer"
"I wanna work at NASA""I wanna be a research Scientist", etc.
Compare these two responses and you'll realize that something is wrong!!!
A friend commented on the situation of Nigeria saying that: "The Rich are getting too rich (richest) and the poor are getting super poor". A couple of factors are responsible for this problems and some of them are outlined below:
- Corruption
- Wrong Thinking
- Bad and Negative foresights of the poor
- Pessimistic approach to problems
- Pessimistic Approach to situations: The poor Nigerian gives up so easily while the middle class and rich Nigeria never give up.
- Selfishness and Covetiousness
- Ethnic Rivalry, etc.
Also, our children are been brought up this way and parents even end been destroying thosee that claim something different...
Furthermore, the poor are super exposed to wrong things all in the name of westernization....
(i've got to go)To be continued....
