Hello friends! Its been a while :D lool! It feels good to be back here. I am going to try not to sound too serious as I may be a culprit of this crime myself.
Well since it is independence time in the country and everyone is talking ways forward for Nigeria. I have decided to share my own candid opinion inspired by a common Nigerian boy who built two different machines out of nothing. He built a Water driven generator ( let me mention that he illuminated an electric bulb with this machine during a demonstartion) and a recycling machine that recycles polythene bags and plastic cans into some sort of flammable liquid which when fragmented can serve as fuel and other combustive liquid.
Having said all that, Corporate organisations in Nigeria are biased towards entertainers and noise makers. Little wonder everyone is going into entertainment.
A bread seller walks into a photo, appears on CNN, gets multiple endorsements, a boy graduates with 5.00 and gets 30k and a laptop...
A boy sings ye ye ye! and gets ETISALAT, MTN and GLO mega endorsements, Emeka has created a water powered generator and a machine that recycles polythene and plastics into fuel... I am waiting
If Emeka, the creator of a water powered generator and a polythene recycling machine from nothing gets endorse by a mega company, we'll be amazed by the very many smart inventions that will come out of Nigeria and of course invented by Nigerian youths.
I think everyone has a role to play, we sing the praise of these so called stars too much. We need to change our priorities.
Corporate organisations should revisit their loyalty and where it lies. It's time we recognise geniuses and inventors rather than entertainers. Its time the goverment introduces incentives for such beautiful and promising acts. Its time we start changing the norm in this country, a wise man once said that madness is doing the same thing all over again and expecting a different result.
God bless Nigeria.
