Orienting The Youths And Creation Of Job Opportunities For A Better Society: A Case Study Of @ned, @dan And Aliko Dangote.

I have been thinking so much about what am about to share right now. I may not be able to fully express what is going on in my mind but at least I think that the little am about to put down here will be able to hold water. A few times back @ned and @dan sat down and created this wonderful platform for the benefit of you and I to blog and earn - their way of giving back to the society I guess. However, this platform has not only payed off financially but has opened several opportunities for many.

In our societies today, especially in Africa, there is a very high rate of unemployment. People are waiting on the government to create jobs but the honest truth is that governments have ran out of ideas themselves. As a result people are suffering, illiteracy and ignorance are on the increase. Many of these categories of people in our society are busy looking for jobs to make ends meet.

Despite the above highlighted problems, youths are looked upon to perform magic in caring for themselves, in some cases, their immediate families and to make the society better. Well, perhaps, I presume this is some peoples idea of youths being the leaders of tomorrow. The truth is that it's not all youths that can write like we do, not even everyone who you invite into steemit that will stay. That is why I keep saying that steemit is for the brave, intelligent, fast learners and fast fingers alone. Also everyone can not be at the same place at the same time and that is realities of life.

This is why I want to thank @ned and @dan for the creation of steemit and the job opportunity it has created for many youths who appreciates it here and willing to change the world with it. My question now boils down to this, if steemit can create such job opportunity for you and I, what do we give back in return? What job opportunity can you create for the lay-man out there?

We all need to answer some of these questions one day.

A saying goes thus: Little drops of water makes a mighty ocean. With little thoughts of love for the society they can materialize into big realities. What are your plans for the society? what do you want to give back to the society? How do you intend to improve your immediate environment and eventually the society at large? What job opportunities do you have in mind to create for those who can not be on steemit?

Some of these questions need answers and until we start answering them little by little and backing them up with concrete actions, the unemployment level in most African countries will drastically reduce to the barest minimum. For the simple mathematics, if at least 1000 African youths on steemit create job opportunities, consider how many people will be elevated out of unemployment.

The high time we start thinking about the answers to the aforementioned questions and working towards achieving them the better for our society and the world at large.

Bear it in mind that at the end of the day you will need to answer to what you have done.

Aliko Dangote the Chairman and CEO of Dangote groups is the richest man in Africa. Dangote has his companies in different parts of Africa, with his products according to Wikipedia covering the 70% of the Nigerian market. To me all the money Dangote has does not make him the richest, but his ability to create job opportunities to many beyond his own country. To me everyone can make money, but not everyone can create the means for others to make that money.

Therefore, every youth has to start thinking about what to do to give others the avenue to make money just like @ned, @dan, Dangote and other people who has given people the right to earn in different sphere.

Let us challenge ourselves towards giving back and creating different avenue for people to survive. The only obstacle to opening a business that will employ others is capital and that capital can be made here. I do not know about what you think but I believe there is nothing that is not achievable. Just as steemit is giving us, let us endeavor to give others.

As for me in a little while I will be kick starting my business and by that employ a few people who will work and earn too. Charge yourself to start something out there too it is our responsibility as youths, the future lies with us. As you already know that everyone can not be in the same place at the same time. Invite more people who belong here and help those that can not be here. If you and I do our quota, then we aim for a great society everywhere in the world.

Believe that all things are achievable... believe you can reach that goal. Remain the best you can be.
