Letter To Nigerian Youth. Stay In Nigeria. You Can Make It Here
I feel so sad anytime i hear that my fellow country man wants to travel abroad in search of green pastures. It makes me break down and i ask myself most of the time, why?.
Why are how youth running away from their future? Why are they making countries look down on us? Why are they endangering their lives? Why are they wasting their money? Why are they risking their lives to cross over? Why cant they stay in Nigeria? Why cant we join hands together? What cant we build a future for our children. Why cant we be patient? Why cant we endure? Why cant we believe in ourselves?
These are the questions that pop to my mind anytime i hear that someone has travelled out. It is a good thing to travel out, in fact i will be happy for the person but the thing that breaks my mind is the reason most people travel out.
IN SEARCH OF GREENER PASTURES.
This is so absurd. You leave your father land to go to another mans land all in the name of making money. Seriously i do not understand why all these is happening. I dont understand at all.
Fine i understand the fact that Nigeria is not a good country at the moment but why cant we join hands to make it better? Why cant we stay and fight for a better tomorrow? If not foe us but for our children. Nigeria has gotten to this stage because our forefathers have fought bravely. Why are we now becoming cowards?
The stress some Nigerians go through to travel out is enough to start up a business here in Nigeria and they will make it but they will not do that. Some even get money from cooperative societies. Some borrow it and never return it. Some will even to the the extent of robbing or scamming people because they want to go to Europe.
The annoying ones are those that risk there life and travel on land and in sea. They travel in thousands but only hundreds get to their destination. And those that get there sometimes go there to become labourers, some even engage in illegal activities and later loose their lives .
