I have never been more thoughtful and seemingly intelligent than I am since joining Steemit. Steemit has thought me to write well, to make out very long/meaningful sentences from happenings around me. Steemit has taught me to be more observant, more creative, more elaborate and finally to write with the sense of having other people come around to read.
These became truer (as I personally observed) when I thought up this topic from mere sighting a sign post titled: YOUTH EMPOWERMENT AND FINANCIAL FREEDOM CENTER
Firstly I was tempted to laugh, but then I refrained from laughing because truth be told, I had no reason to laugh. All I knew was that the sign post title was funny as well as untrue, but I needed to come up with thoughts around that before I can confidently laugh them to scorn.
Minutes later I was seated comfortably in my room and had time to reflect on what I saw minutes ago.
LET'S ESTABLISH THE FACT THAT THERE IS NEED FOR YOUTH EMPOWERMENT AND FINANCIAL FREEDOM
I will begin the post proper by giving you an analysis of the rate of unemployment and poverty among the citizenry.
These above images give a hint on the fact that there is a constant increase in unemployment and poverty in the economy (i.e. living below $2 daily)....That's established.
LET'S NARROW THIS DOWN TO THE YOUTHS IN NIGERIA
So far, I have tried to establish the fact that there is an increasing level of unemployment among the Nigerian populace, most especially among the youth since they are the hope of the Nigeria we all seek.
These above unemployment statistics described pictorially, also establishes the fact that there is financial woes among these Nigerian youths.
DO YOU CARE TO ASK WHOSE FAULT THIS IS?
When I asked some friends this same question, I was greeted with these answers:
Isaac Whose Steemit account is yet to be approved stood neutral by citing two instances of BAD GOVERNMENT and PEOPLE WHO HAS MADE IT BIG IN NIGERIA IRRESPECTIVE OF THE ECONOMIC DICTATES. From his detailed explanation, i could see that he swung more to the fact that individuals are mostly to blame for their financial woes, even though he's not aware that he's is doing just that.
SHILE who will never join Steemit because of his personal belief (which of course are not making him gallant financially) believes totally the government is to blame. This he further did by citing several reasons ranging from Corruption, playing politics with youths's future, incessant strikes in our citadels of higher lerning and so on.
When I got home and ruminated over the sign post as mentioned above, I then had the confidence to laugh because I saw reasons to. Find therefore some of the reasons why @dintellectual believes financial woes among Nigerian youths is a child of internal/personal failure:
We (@bania @elixbaba & @dintellectua) Have A a well arranged series of Steemit meetup starting from Saturday 24th February, 2018 tailored toward ameliorating Youth financial woes among Nigerian youths especially in the south west. We plan to bring these meetups to success by addressing these mentioned personal failures as listed above since we have reached an understanding that those are the real big issue.
PLEASE FOLLOW @dintellectual @elixbaba @bania IN ORDER TO GET FULL UPDATES AS WE PROCEED IN THESE MEETUPS
