Naija @56, What Have We Achieved?

Our Flag Of Pride

Nigeria celebrates her Independence today. Today marks our 56th year of existence as a nation. One would think that at 56 a lot of improvements and changes would have been felt by her citizens in such a long time but the reverse has been the case.

Nigeria has struggled to live up to the hype of being the Giant of Africa

Poverty Syndrome

An analysis on the Causes of Poverty Can anyone really define poverty? At least not more than a man who hardly gets a meal a day, at least not more than a child who puts on one set of clothes for a year, or a home of seven children in a room apartment or a constant meal of processed cassava soaked in water so as to multiply. The United nations have clearly stated that a man is said to be poor if he doesn't spend above two dollars a day, going by that poverty seems to be closer than it seems and that means almost one out of every five Nigerians are poor.

Poverty is indeed a chronic disease, it made a woman sell her baby for 20,000 Naira, it made a man order his wife to sleep with his boss so as to get a promotion in the office

When I First Found You

I was walking along a miniature farm land when my eyes marauded only to find a worthy jewel dressed in old tattered clothes, I was impulse to make the most out of you. When I first found you no one was interested in you. None had the slightest interest in you. None had the slightest hope in you.

Be yourself, F**k the Society

Be yourself, F**k the Society

All week I had been thinking of what write for this yearbook and just a second ago, it hit me.

A wise man once said “beauty is being able to say ‘F**K you’ to the society (#sulibreaks),

Beauty is not perfect, beauty is not being shirtless,

Beauty is writing a program for days and when it says error after its being run, you start all over again,

Beauty is being able to be yourself and decide on what and what not to do, even when the society says otherwise,

Everyone Is Born Great!

 

Everyone Is Born Great!

So many people often think that some people are born great while others are not, some others also believe that once you are born into a privileged family (like a royal family)  that are bound to be great.

That’s not true!

Some others, especially the youths think that imitating someone who is already successful, maybe the way the walk, talk or dress that it will in a way make you become successful.

That’s not true either

There are certain things that every great man or successful man or woman who has ever lived possess and they are;

Uniqueness

Discipline

Sense of direction
