For those of us who love writing, we write not because Nigeria has a reading audience, but because posterity will hold us liable for not writing. We walk and write, sit and write, stand and write and even write while sleeping. I know somebody will say how can it be real, but that is the truth. The things we see and hear are the inspirations and for the fact that it gives us happiness we will keep writing.
The average Nigerian youth is in a fixed on what decision to take daily in life. Sleeping and waking up to face a state of hopelessness in a country that has all it takes to make them happy, daily drives them crazy. To most of these youths, the only thing left is to do anything and everything that will keep them happy to allow the days daily run by.
These frustration is seen in the type of posts and comments you see our youths post and comment on. Reading long articles is time wasting and as such, if you want to capture the attention of our youths on social media, post a naked woman, post things about sex, nudedity makes them happy as you will see million likes and comments, please do not blame them, it is what makes them happy . The rulers of this country Nigeria over the years have reduced the youths to a state of hopelessness that have seen them take happiness in drugs, nudedity and every social vices that comes their way.
To rescue the situation, a lot of re-orientation must be done, and jobs must be created to keep them busy for an iddle mind is the devils workshop
