PLEASE I HUMBLY SEEK THIS HONORABLE FORUMS ADVICE ON THE MATTER OF "JJC IN LAGOS". YOU SEE A VERY DISTANT COUSIN CALLED ME TO TELL ME SHE WOULD BE TRVELLING TO LAGOS FOR THE FIRST TIME, AND NATURALLY SOUGHT ADVICE ON HOW TO ADAPT TO LAGOS, EXPECTIONS AND OTHERWISE. PLEASE I DO NOT WANT TO MISINFORM HER. HELP ME OUT.

I think their major reason here in Nigeria is to showcase that they can, and besides the girls want them too for what they can offer. That is just the harsh reality but a sad oldtimer, for heavens sake we have mothers at home.

I AGREE WITH WHAT MY BROTHER CHUMAS IS SAYING. I ALSO THINK THAT WE NEED SERIOUS SANITIZATION IN OUR WONDERFUL COUNTRY. THE PROBLEM OF CORRUPTION MUST BE TACKLED TO HELP SHAPE THE PSYCHE OF OUR CHILDREN BOTH AT PRESENT AND IN THE FUTURE. FOR FACTS, LOOK AT THE UNIVERSITIES TODAY, THEY TURN OUT THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF QUALIFIED GRADUATES IN DIFFERENT FIELDS BUT MAJORITY END UP ON THE STREETS, WITH NO JOB AND NO HOPE.

ONE BEGINS TO WONDER AT THE LEVEL OF SOPHISTICATION THAT ARMED ROBBERY HAS ATTAINED AND THE SUCCESS OF INTERNET FRAUD. THIS ONLY GOES TO SHOW THAT THOSE INVOLVED ARE NO LONGER NAIVE BUT HIGHLY INTELLIGENT AND EDUCATED AS WELL.

IN CONCLUSION I THINK THE CHANGE STARTS WITH US INDIVIDUALLY.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA, OUR FATHERLAND.

It is with a heavy heart that i put down this observation. It is becoming a trend now, that our youth no longer want to work nor even learn a trade. They troop to the cafe in search of the golden fleece. For them it is the only way to strike gold and make it big. The culture of hard work is fast becoming a thing of the past. Even our fathers and older uncles are joining the race.

THE QUESTION NOW IS WHY?

WHAT CAN BE DONE TO REMEDY THE SITUATION?

IS THE SITUATION JUSTIFIED?
