Billyonaire: I need you to state what Nigerian youths can do to help Nigeria, I am not interested in making perfect recommendations, our collective psyche has to be positively altered. My friend, you are trying to put a lipstick on a pig. It would warrant writing a manifesto here on what Nigerian kids should do. We need to tackle the root cause of the problem. You can't build a house on a shaky foundation. Does the present climate favourable for foreign investment? Oh you think, them potential investors don't watch the news? Business ideas sound good, but it would do us more good if we are realistic on the ground by putting first thing first. |

ONE OF THE MOST THRILLING POINTS IN MY LIFE IS WHEN I HEAR NIGERIAN NATIONAL ANTHEM BEING PLAYED IN AN INTERNATIONAL ARENA,BE IT FOOTBALL OR ATHELETICS.THE EXCITEMENT WHEN A NIGERIAN CLIMB THE PODIUM TO COLLECT A MEDAL IS INMEASUREABLE,AT THAT POINT IT DOESNT MATTER WEATHER THE PERSON IS HAUSA,YORUBA OR IBO. I LOOK AT MY COUNTRY AND I SAY BELIEVE ME WE HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BEAT JAMAICA IN WORLD ATHLETICS,BUT THE DIFFERENCE IS THE FACILITY. WE DONT HAVE TO WAIT FOR GOVERNMENT,RE INTRODUCE SCHOOL COMPETION,MAKE FACILITIES AVAILABL, BE OBJECTIVE IF YOU ARE IN POSITION AND CHOOSE THE BEST TO REPRESENT YOUR NATION NOT THE ONE THAT COMES FROM YOUR VILLAGE. GIVE EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES AND YOU WILL BE SURPRISE THAT AMONG THE MILIOTANTS/BOKO HARAM BOYS THAT WERE VICTIMS OF OUR POLITICIANS, AMONG THEM THEIR IS A WORLD CHAMPION. |

This is indeed one of the best post I have seen in NL for quite a long time. I must appreciate all the comments thus far. I will say it start with me! Applying acquired knowledge, seeking to update my knowledge & skills, exposing & correcting wrongs in my immediate family,office and community; ready to register and vote wisely; discarding the "government do all mentality; punctuality at meetings and workplace; carrying out my lawful duty euthusiastically... So many ways to affect our various corners of the nation! It all begins with me!!!!!!!! |

"Nigerian activists and intellectuals need to start thinking extremely seriously about the option of public pedagogy [teaching and instruction]. We have to look beyond formal institutions to instruct and educate our people. We have to take civics to the streets, to social media, to Molue buses, to paraga joints. We have to meet Nigerians where they are. This would involve painstaking planning and networking. It would require dedicated intellects willing to brainstorm and strategize. Once we agree that public pedagogy is an option we need to consider very seriously, conceptualization and planning could follow. In the end, every citizen we gain who no longer identifies with his own oppressor, even if the oppressor is his ethnic kinsman - is one giant step for Nigeria. With public pedagogy and instruction, we can begin to undo the psychological injury that the oppressor has done to our Stockholm Syndromed compatriots and begin the process of taking Nigeria back one mind at a time." ~ Pius Adesanmi Source: Click here 1 Like |

I am glad somone posted this topic. I can see some nice ideas are coming up but seriously, ppl just comment without any action. What I think we should do now is set up a new group on Nairaland with the aim of helping our nation. We need real action rather than just talk like our leaders. There are a lot of talented and hardworking people in Nigeria but they are currently being wasted due to the soceity they find themselves. We need to start taking action now rather than later. Giving opinion on nairaland is not enough, your fellow countrymen need your help. We shouldn't abardon Nigeria now because things are not working. Pls let us come together and help our Nation. I see no sense in wasting your precious time commenting on something that is not useful to our nation Nigeria. If you truely have Nigeria at heart, take an action. If you are with me, give your suggestion and let's start a group towards helping the nation. Our voices may not be heard now but our actions will speak for us. HOPE FOR NIGERIA. |

I do not always say much on nairaland topics, however, on dis issue... I noticed that some people seem to say they are disappointed at d responses they are getting from youths on this thread, I love it when youths 'yarn' their minds out and fail to be hypocrites.. Most of those makin godly posts are somewhere in the US or UK... They only watch d news.. WE, we wey dey yarn d mata... We know what we have been thru, Sometimes u hear ppl preachin dat youths shuldnt collect money from politicians.. But then, are u sure that youth has food to eat in d next three hours?? I have been in nigeria all my life, from d streets.. I know what it is like. Some ppl just make dumb posts and try to sound godly.. Any youth wey dun go thru d kind harassment, embarrassment, emotional problems, wahala, troubles wey normal nigerian youth dey go thru no go dey think sanely... I dey tell u. Even when u try to start a business, d corrupt system and practices frustrates it.. Every nigerian youth from d streets starts thinking of hustling from age 8. As a nigerian youth from the streets... Where we are our own nepa, we dig our own wells for water, we suffer to go to school, get beaten up by the police... Mehm.... We don't owe nigeria any HELP.. Our leaders owe us an apology.. For ruining our lives... Most of those godly youths u see... Na dem papa spoil nigeria... Na our money dem take dey school for yankee!!! 1 Like |
Re: Dear Nigerian Youths, How Can You Actually 'Help' Nigeria!? by Homonide: 3:13pm On Jul 01, 2012 |
Answer is simple. Nigerian youths, and indeed all well-meaning Nigerians should ask themselves one question; what really is Nigeria's biggest and single most important problem, and how can it be solved? Is it Leadership? Followership? Corruption? Or a shaky foundation as some would be quick to posit? After answering this question, then swear by whatever you believe in to do your best in solving the problem. And we should stop the 'MAFA' syndrome... We need to stop mistaking articulation for action and get down to practising what we believe in. |
Re: Dear Nigerian Youths, How Can You Actually 'Help' Nigeria!? by BRUNO17: 3:20pm On Jul 01, 2012 |
Billyonaire: First step is to get rid of "Government must help me, mindset"; Young graduates need to engage them in futurist skills and stop strolling streets of VI in searching for ready-made jobs. If you have brilliant business ideas, talk to people with liquid, they will make it come true. If you talent in music and dance, explore it, entertainment will lift us all from negativism. Do you know to run TV shows ? that area is barren and there is a lot of opportunity. Bottomline is Nigeria is ours, no matter where you go, you will be treated in disdain, home is our pride. What are u talking abt? To be successful in any business you need a well laid out infrastructure (Good Road, Power...etc) for the business to be successful. Wat we need to do is hold our govt accountable and not sit back and watch them loot all our resources, take it to foreign land with their children buying houses in London and the United States. Sending their children top universities across the globe . |

Billyonaire: What Nigerian youths should do to help Nigeria is stay off politics and start inventing products, designing 21st century web applications and stop talking politics. Fella, you may have good intentions, but that alone doesn't amount to anything concrete. Why do you think you are paying more on internet Data plans and phone tariffs? Telecommunication companies says its because they spend huge money on diesel to power their facilities and so on. Lets put things into perspective. A Nigerian student studying computer science is limited because of lack of infastructures like constant electricity to practise at home. Are you gonna keep on buying fuel with the hardship in the country? Not everyone is priviledged or financially bouyant to pay for this high end IT schools around. Hence, the limitations to harness talents. I don't know where Seun hosted nairaland but there is a possibility that it is not hosted by a Nigerian company due to unreliability and low uptime and other negative factors that affects business in an uncondusive environment. Come to think of it, if Nairaland were hosted in say UK or US and the governments of these countries is fed up with the activities of Nairaland, don't you think it can order the hosting company to shut it down? But it wont be easy to tell a foreign country to do same, that would be voilating their soverign laws. Why do you think facebook relocated a lot of their server farms to scandinavian countries, it is because they have a strong media laws and American cant just push them around to shut it facebook down for some reason. Another reason is to save cost on cooling system, since the weather there is very cold. Do you know how many watts is needed to power and cool a server farm? So before any tangible technology come into play, electricity has to be stable. I won't be surprise if your countrie's website is hosted in Ghana. Politics and basic infastructure go hand in hand. Unless as the George Soros Aka The byllionaire of the house, you want to give it to us as a Gift. |

I think eliminating "state of origin" in forms would be a good thing. Anyway, people still don't know the effect of what politics has turned our youths to. I'm still 21, and whenever I sit with people of my age and discuss world issues, the only thing on their mind is how they'll get to politics and have a share of the national cake...and I ask..has it really gotten to this stage? Seriously speaking, I think a situation where death penalty would be used for unaccountable governance would go a long way to stabilize this. Just saying As for me...I'm still nursing a good idea that would put our youths, especially the jobless and street youths, to good use. |

Re: Dear Nigerian Youths, How Can You Actually 'Help' Nigeria!? by MrLuGold(m): 4:13pm On Jul 01, 2012 |
Lol..when i created this post my intention wasn't to create a battlefield. Nevertheless its all jokes i guess. Now i'm going to make a suggestion, but before you call me a sadist and conclude that i have issues.. Think of the effect of the suggestion. I watched an old re-run episode of Nikita 2 days ago. This episode was based in Peru. Politicians were drowning the country in corruption. Some vigilante took it upon himself to kidnap these politicians one by one. He locked them in an underground classroom equipped with cameras. He would torture them and make them write all the crimes they have committed on one blackboard. On the other blackboard he would make them write "I will never commit crime again" over 1000 times. He made them do this naked to add extra humiliation. Of course this was all being watched by the public. After he had done this to several corrupt public figures, well let's just say corruption reduced significantly. Wouldnt it be funny if someone would lock up some oil subsidy fraudster and do this to him/her? Yes i may have modified the episode a bit lol. On a serious note, i believe how we can start making a difference is by reacting effectively to news of corruption. The reason there still is corruption is because all this high-rolling public figures believe there are no consequences for their actions. You can bribe the court, you own the police, they cant throw u in jail.. they literally have nothing to be scared of. We need to remind them that if they use and abuse us there are people in naija that will react in an unpleasant manner. Even it means throwing eggs and paint-filled balloons on their houses and convoys. Defacing their campaign posters. Creating caricatures of them and using it as BBM dps. The little things u think make no difference will actually hurt them. Look at that mongrel dj-tee that stabbed someone recently. Never met the guy before, dont even know him. But because of the mass-media hatred for him created by social media everyone thinks the guy is a proud useless buffoon. Me sef i never hear the full story but i feel the guy is a buffoon..lol.. Do the right thing today..throw an egg on the corrupt politician closest to you. (Mr. Lu Gold and none of his associates will be held responsible for any brutality inflicted on you by Mopol, navy or NNPC private security)

Personally i cant fathom why somebody will be complaining how i spend my money,which was and is hard-earned. So i have my $$$$ and buy the best of phones,cars,houses and send my kids to the best schools e.t.c. How does it concern you? Na your money? Na me say make you no follow buy? If you like 3310 dat doesn't mean others must/should like it. If you like staying in a small house that doesn't mean others like it. So face yur wahala and don't blame the buying of white goods as the cause of the problem in 9ja. |

We need to shun corruption. This is the major problem that is keeping Nigeria the way she is. I wish the present government can grant amnesty to all former and present corrupt officials that have looted this country. Encourage them to bring all the stolen funds and invest in this country, and nobody will probe them; and pass a bill that will deal seriously to any body found in corrupt practices henceforth. |

U can imagine low IQ persons using expensive BB for pinging ONLY. When Curve 2 of 20k 'd serve this purpose and even more. Only 2 percent explore the usage of BB in Nigeria. We all want expensive cars in number when @most 2 simple cars 'll do for convenience sake. We all want to live in mansions with just ourselves, wife and maybe 3kids. When a simple 4bedrooms 'd accommodate us very well. Minding the fact that the kids 'd grow up and live someday. We are all chasing Vanity. Only if we know this. Then there won't be corruption. That's why I so much love the book of the Preacher. Bros I like your nairaland name...you living up to it.Tell them my brother! Thanks 4 d compliment. |

Let me contribute my piece from my pool of knowledge, when ever you want to kill a plant you uproot it from the root. All previous suggestion are going to be efficient in curtailing our problem, but the question is are we uprooting it from its root or we are just cutting the branches of which we know will grow later on. Let us take our time to relate nagative things that has happened to us since the inception of this entity Nigeria to know the root of our problem. It takes a sensible, realistic who has put it as a task to know this. 1 Like |

As a Nigerian youth born and living in diaspora, I want to come back and help. I have gone through my undergraduate and graduate studies and desire to come back and invest in Nigeria. I want to help reform the healthcare field and develop better preventive care practices. I have so many great ideas and Nigeria is a hot bed of potential, but lacking in practical know-how and expertise. Consultants can do so well in Nigeria! But why is it so easy for a foreigner to come to Nigeria under oil, or other companies, or NGOs, but Nigerians reject their own people? Is it the novelty of their skin or colonial mentality? Or have we lost faith and trust in ourselves? I would have to go through NYSC, which is an antiquated, in my opinion. Think about it, you take the whole graduating class of new graduates, and send them to various corners of Nigeria, often without protection and without sufficient financial support. They then sit for a year trying to survive and prepare for their future, when they should go straight into the workforce. The government should easily be able to help these students if not for its corruption. In my opinion, NYSC should be modernized to be geared toward enabling new graduates to gain real world skills and application of knowledge in their area of study/degree. This can be done through intensive internships, externships, workshops, career networking, and awards given to promising graduates that show innovation or great ideas. Such awards could be used to start business or pursue various entrepreneurial ventures. Also, are such dialogues taking place in Nigerian institutions of higher learning, ie. universities, even secondary schools among students and youth? [flash=200,200] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JDuEs7lWp8&feature=fvwrel[/flash] Such dialogues are common in the classrooms where professors and teachers desire to promote innovative thinkers who are being prepared to be leaders of tomorrow. This forum took place at the prestigious Colombia University in New York. Why not at Unilag, UNN, or any of the other universities in Nigeria? But the Unilag students were busy protesting name change of their school because of the same love for status, title, big boi/big girl, big money, and love of corruption and material wealth. They learnt this from Nigerian society and those around them. They should be protesting bribing teachers, campus cultists, unfair academic practices, unemployment/lack of opportunities, etc. There is so much wrong with the Nigerian "educational system," but that discussion is for another thread. How do we Help Nigeria, when Nigeria doesn't seem to want to change. It has been said that the first step to dealing with a problem is recognizing a problem exists. But when a mother eats her young, how can it cry out for help? It was doomed before it even got a chance. Those in leadership and with power are doing their best to make sure the next generation, the youth, don't survive. So my question is, you older generations, how can you help us help you? |
