Contest alert!! Rights
Introduction
Rights, a great topic of discussion. Many people know their rights, they value them and also protect them from being violated by people. While on the other hand, some people don't know their rights and won't know what to do when they are denied or violated. It is very important that people know their rights and how to deal with violation.
Special thanks to the organizer of this contest @sahar78, for the opportunity given to us to express ourselves.
What is the importance of rights according to you?
Rights are what we are entitled to have, do or own no matter who is involved. So the most important thing about rights is that it protects us from being intimidated or abused and it gives us boldness.
When we know our rights, we will be able to protect it from abuse.
Are you in favour of raising voice about your rights?
Oh yes! I love to speak about my rights and the rights of other people where ever I go. I am one of those persons who don't like to see others being cheated up on or abused it usually hurts.
I teach Civic Education in my school, so whenever I teach my students on their rights, I do so with passion. I let them know that their right is their power, that they should guard it jealously.
Have ever someone tried to control over your rights?
Yes. As a matter of fact, arriving in a place first, makes you to be entitled to be first served before the others who came later. When I was pregnant with my second child, I used the government hospital, so on this fateful day, I went for scan.
I'd known people would be much so I left my house very early so that I can be attended to on time. I arrived there meeting four people at about 8am. I gave a sigh of relief, knowing I'll leave early. To my surprise, I was there till 1pm unattended to.
I was totally helpless, I walked up to the nurses, I asked her why it was so when I noticed those who came late were attended to. She said they registered a day before. I didn't accept the excuse she gave me, I walked into the office, sat down and told them I wanted to be attended to since I came early enough.
I spoke to the oldest lady (nurse), showing my displeasure and letting them know what they did was wrong. They did that because others went in to tip (bribe) them that they have other things to attend to. When I spoke to them they had no option than allow me into the ultra scan room to be scanned.
Conclusion
Speak up, be that voice. Don't allow evil practices and abusers to leave without being told or even being arrested and prosecuted. Abuse must stop. That's why you must know your rights.
Thank you, friend!
