One will realize that our matter is beyond shifting blames or making excuses. \n\n\"At no time do we have as much security agencies tackling every kind of crime, yet every form of negativity is still balooning off the charts. This points to the fact that there is something inherently lost amongst the people & that thing is nothing other than Positive Values.\"\n\nHe said, \"Ekiti youths are now aware that it is only a better people that can build a better Nation and that the loss of morals have cost us dearly & as such we are ready to work hard to change the present narratives. Ekiti should be developed more than this, those who knew us as far back as the days of the Western Region and the Old Ondo state can attest to our brilliance, ability and honesty. \n\n\"Ekiti people were known for their immpecable character and unyieldingness when it comes to fraudulent deeds and as such we were progressing but over the years our values, heritage & legacy have become eroded, we cannot & we will not continue on this path, we must awaken that which is lost and regain our legacy, it is our only recourse to true development & salvation from the ills plaguing us.\"\n\nHe also pointed out that the issue of moral deficiency is not just a youth problem but a general problem that manifests itself in every category of citizens. In his words, he said, \"this is why our campaign is not just about youths but about the populace as a whole, it is not a youth campaign but a youth driven campaign & we will be taking our message across board, into every nook & corner, into every sector, from the schools to the market, from the civil service sector to the artisans, from talking about exam malpractices & internet fraud to dishonest scales, from corrupt practices to fraudulent & deceptive attitude.\n\n\"It is our goal that our people become better, it is our goal that our people embrace honesty in all their dealings, It is our goal that our people eschew greed & avoid self centeredness. \n\n\"We want a better State, we want a better Nation and we believe that one can only give what one has.\"\n\nOne of the youths, Oluwalana Daniel a 200level student of Faculty of Law Ekiti state university, advocated the need for our religious institutions to teach and encourage moral uprightness, not just by way of mouth but by matching deeds with action, in his words, \"you cannot be condemning fraud & corruption and be exalting fraudulent & corrupt people on the basis of being rich, it doesn't tally\". He also recommended that it is high time educational institutions add the teaching of moral education to their curriculum and maybe even make anti-corruption a GST course in our tertiary institutions.\n\nComrade Olanrewaju Ojuoluwa, Secretary to the Joint Council Of Ekiti Youths said, \"it is important that the Nation looks at Value reorientation as a solution to the numerous problems plaguing the Country and made a call on both private and public institutions, most especially the National Orientation Agency to rise up to the issue of moral deficiency and make it a task to teach our people to be Good, to be Kind, to be Hardworking, to be Dutiul, to be Honest in Our Dealings, to Eschew Greed, to Avoid Self-Centeredness and most especially, to be Patriots.\"",

To those who notwithstanding the government's irresponsibility to the welfare of workers still do their jobs diligently even when they are owed months of unpaid salaries. To those children whose future seem bleak because of structural and infrastructural inadequacies.\n\nTo the teaming youths who are stranded, strapped and frustrated, who have given their all with virtually nothing to show for it. To their parents who have invested so much in them but are experiencing hunger even at old age, I want you to know that there is hope it you don't give up. You will definitely make it if you keep pressing!\n\nLet us consider the story of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States of America who never quit despite failing in many attempts to make it in life.\n\nBorn into poverty, Lincoln was faced with defeat throughout his life. He lost eight elections, twice failed in business and suffered a nervous breakdown.\n\nHe could have quit many times – but he didn’t and because he didn’t quit, he became one of the greatest presidents in the United States history.\n\nHere is a sketch of Lincoln’s road to the White House:\n\n1816 His family was forced out of their home. He had to work to support them.\n1818 His mother died.\n1831 Failed in business.\n1832 Ran for state legislature – lost.\n1832 Also lost his job – wanted to go to law school but couldn’t get in.\n1833 Borrowed some money from a friend to begin a business and by the end of the year he was bankrupt. He spent the next 17 years of his life paying off this debt.\n1834 Ran for state legislature again – won.\n1835 Was engaged to be married, sweetheart died and his heart was broken.\n1836 Had a total nervous breakdown and was in bed for six months.\n1838 Sought to become speaker of the state legislature – defeated.\n1840 Sought to become elector – defeated.\n1843 Ran for Congress – lost.\n1846 Ran for Congress again – this time he won – went to Washington and did a good job.\n1848 Ran for re-election to Congress – lost.\n1849 Sought the job of land officer in his home state – rejected.\n1854 Ran for Senate of the United States – lost.\n1856 Sought the Vice-Presidential nomination at his party’s national convention – get less than 100 votes.\n1858 Ran for U.S. Senate again – again he lost.\n1860 Elected president of the United States.\n\nIf this supposedly destined-to-fail-man could become a world renowned because he didn't give up even after failing in many attempts to becoming great in life, then I am rest assured that you too can.\n\nGod bless Nigeria and all of her citizens who seek her betterment.\n\nI am Olanrewaju Ojuoluwa, Youth Advocate and Social Reformer, Convener of #TooRichToSuffer. I believe in a country where things work. I believe in a New Nigeria!",

      "body": "OURS IS DEFINITELY A RADIANT GLOOM\nOlanrewaju Ojuoluwa\n\n\"...even though turbulent time as we are presently experiencing was prophesied before now, let it be known that we have successfully fast-tracked our own 'end time' and, I doubt if it can be gloomier than this, for ours is that of a radiant gloom!\" - Sharpminds\n\nWhile the world around us is evolving; new innovations springing forth daily, competitive inventions rolling out every minute, science and technology taken to the next level and a number of milestones achieved by everyone else but us, we are busy languishing in disunity, political instability and poverty. Speaking of poverty however, we have done well enough to make Nigeria its world headquarter.\n\nIn the nineteenth year of the new millennium, we are still struggling with meeting basic needs of life as a people while others have gone beyond meeting primary and secondary needs, to meeting tertiary needs. Structural and infrastructural inadequacies keep costing us lives worthwhile. Hope against hope, visions upon visions; it is getting more and more difficult to fulfill one's dreams, visions, ambitions and aspirations in an opportunity-dry country like ours.\n\nWatching the TV yesterday, I saw Festus Keyamo boasting on behalf of the President, how Buhari's administration has changed the story of Nigeria for good; how insurgency and any threat to civil living have been 'drastically' dealt with. He said those rubbish on Aljazeera! Pathetic, isn't it? It's a pity that many Nigerians are being subjected to the most inhumane treatments ever, being made refugees even in their home country all because we have failed woefully.\n\nI cannot agree more with Chinua Achebe when he said, “the trouble with Nigeria is simply and squarely a failure of leadership. There is nothing basically 'wrong' with the Nigerian character. There is nothing wrong with the Nigerian land or climate or water or air or anything else. The Nigerian problem is the unwillingness or inability of its leaders to rise to the responsibility, to the challenge of personal example which are the hallmarks of true leadership.”\n\nObafemi Awolowo did more justice to the above statement when he said, \"...the influence which a nation exerts, the respect which it enjoys, and the prestige accorded to it on the world scene, depend on two important factors: the size of its wealth and the calibre of its leadership. Granting an incorruptible, courageous, public-spirited, enlightened and dynamic leadership, the wealth of a nation is the fountain of its strength. The bigger the wealth, and the more equitable its distribution among the factors and agencies which have helped to produce it, the greater the out-flow of the nation’s influence and power.\" Chief Obafemi Awolowo said this in a speech he delivered in London on November 3rd, 1961, a year after Nigeria's independence.\n\nWe have come to that point in our national life when we have to tell ourselves the gospel truth. Nothing is truer than the fact that Nigeria is at a record low because nothing seems to be working. Nigeria leaders over time have caused her to retrogress more than they have 'attempted' to make her progress. If nothing else, at least we all know that the same sets of people have been parading themselves in the corridor of power since 1960.\n\nIt is shockingly embarrassing to know that anyone would still pride in being a leader of such a devastating place like ours. Oh, how time flies, [b]leaders used to willfully take their own lives when they failed the people in times of old, those were the days when men were honourable! [/b]Even if this present breed of shameless ignoble marauders parading themselves as leaders would not end their own lives honourably, it is at least a reasonable thing for them to vacate the seat! How beautiful it is for rulers to be Noble!\n\nAs a young boy, I witnessed the first riot by market women in my town when price of foodstuffs 'skyrocketed' suddenly without prior notice. A Congo/mudu of garri suddenly became 7 naira from its initial 5 naira, and the same applied to aroso rice (imported) which became 15 naira from its initial 10naira. Everybody knows how badly these commodities have skyrocketted now. The former costing as high as around 200 naira and the later costing as high as around 800 naira respectively. I remember when I used to buy pms (petrol) for 11 naira per litre, I would go to the 'Total' filling station across the road with a 20 litre keg and get it filled up with 220 naira, a few naira more than 145naira which is the official price of a litre today!\n\nWithout mincing words, 'a national day for cursing' should at least be set aside annually to lay curses on everyone who has contributed to Nigeria's undoing in anyway. I mean, this same 50 naira that can hardly buy cookies today used to be my pocket money for a whole term when I was in boarding school in those days (even though it wasn't the standard then). I didn't only witnessed, I also partook of it when the transport fare between Ikere-Ekiti and Ado-Ekiti was just 5naira, it's now 150 naira (3000% increase)! I'm talking about a time as recent as two decades ago! For crying out loud, where did we get it all wrong?\n\nIt is mere self deciet if we believe that any of those who have spoiled us so far would come around to fix Nigeria, it's nothing but a very glaring lie which would be bought only by a gullible people. We've chosen gullibility as a core value. An obnoxious attitude injected into us as part of a long term plan by greedy politicians in order to remote us cheaply. We've been treated so badly that sometimes we forget that we are human beings, hence, we behave like animals. We forget that government exists because of the people. We forget that, our representatives are suppose to be answerable to us. We stoop so low, extremely low for God's liking, limiting our own options. Even if we are under a curse, our actions and inactions have made such curse more effective on us.\n\nGod, while seated on His throne in heaven must have most times wondered how His investment on us has not yielded reasonable fruits, having situated us in a geographical location flowing with milk and honey, where nothing short of bliss is expected in return. We have by our misbehaving turned God's blessings to curses; still needing aid from countries with less than 10% of our resources. It is a misnomer that we are where we are presently!\n\nIt can only happen in an 'insane' society like ours that few months to a general election, the praises of marauders who have been in the business of embezzling our Commonwealth are still being sung everywhere. Heaven only help those who help themselves they say. As a religious people who believe in God, it is unfortunate that even the Supreme Being cannot help us as long as we aren't ready to do away with bad leaders who keep robbing us of good lives. \n\nOn a final note, a tsunami is coming, it will be worst than a horrible tempest, it will sweep away many, especially those who have benefited from Nigeria's problems. It would not matter if they are young or old, former soldiers cum politicians or religious leaders, they will all be swept away. The soul of every innocent Nigerian who has been a victim of their game of doom will fight back. Today as a Sabbath day is more fitting for a day of praying than being a day for cursing. Therefore, that day is left for you to choose. However, as it stands, we are not just hopeless as a people, our hopelessness is actually gross darkness. A radiant gloom!\n\nI am Olanrewaju Ojuoluwa, a Youth Advocate and Social Reformer.

      "body": "SOMETIMES IT HAS TO GET WORST TO GET BETTER\nOlanrewaju Ojuoluwa\n\nIn my little experience in life so far, one thing I have learnt is that most often, tough times precede change of status for better. And just as in the popular saying, tough time never lasts indeed, tough people do.\n\nAnd, if there are features we possess as a people, they are that we are tough and resilient (bar the fact that we have taken it to the extreme, smiling in the midst of sufferings, allowing ourselves to be afflicted the more by our leaders). However, notwithstanding our being extremists as far as toughness and resilience are concerned, there is hope of a better tomorrow for us both as people and country as a whole.\n\nConsidering how seedlings have to rotten in the soil before they can germinate and bring forth fruit in due time, most times, things must get worst before they get better. By rational thinking, whenever anything gets decayed or rotten, it is expected to get spoilt and be of no use, value or benefit anymore. However, it is at that moment of hopelessness that nature permits a seed planted to bring forth life. How wonderful!\n\nIt is therefore 'good' that Nigeria is rotten right now. Our being at this lowest state ever, is a pointer that we will blossom sooner than later. Yes, it is true that the present state of the Nigeria State is nothing to write home about and in fact, an apology, but tell it to the world that we shouldn't be mocked, Nigeria's new Dawn Era beckons.\n\nThe life of the Japanese bamboo tree is enough reasons to know that Nigeria has more than just glimpse of hope. The Japanese bamboo would not grow beyond 2fts between its time of planting and four years, but would get as tall as 90fts in the fifth year. A whole 4400% increase in just one year! Interesting, isn't it? \n\nNigeria may be a crawling giant at 58 years old, but that does not mean she will remain the same till her 60th or 70th birthday. She may (not minding fact) become a country to reckon with in all ramifications of life before her 65th independence celebration. What I am driving at is that, our present status is not a decider of what our future would be. Our background cannot determine our future.\n\nHowever, there are things to do for us to get to our Dreamland. There are steps and actions to take. There are habits to let go of. There are those to get rid of. There are attributes to let go of. There are attitudes to imbibe. And of all things that must be gotten rid of is, GULLIBILITY.\n\nWhen Nigerians get rid of gullibility, they would in turn get rid of bad leadership. They would then not be easily decieved by greedy politicians neither would they be manipulated so cheaply by a generation of looters cum dealers who have no love whatsoever for the masses.\n\nAs expected, the Nigerian people may not get it right in 2019, we may as well not get it right even after then, but, one thing is sure; by the time we get it right as a people, our growth and development will be so rapid that, those who have gone ahead of us would feel threatened by our success. I'm sure or this because we are an excellent people. Plus, our rottenness and decadence is towards the springing forth of a new dawn era.\n\nGood bless Nigeria and her loving people.\n\nI'm Olanrewaju Ojuoluwa, Youth Advocate and Social Reformer, Convener, #TooRichToSuffer![images (75).jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXQwZ2XptciA6f33eaKXyUXfs4AB63Cfix3YTvLgWnv9y/images%20(75).jpeg)",

      "body": "In contributing my own quota to making our country a better place, I wrote a book; \"Nigeria 2019: Sell Your Worth Not Your Vote\" to sensitize the people on the need to shun election malpractices especially, vote Selling/Buying...\n\nFree and fair electoral conduct is something we are all familiar with and often hear about; however, have we even comprehended its true meaning: its deeper meanings, its real conducive elements, and the functions it should serve? Presently, various sections of the society have taken up the call for free and fair elections and clean electoral practices. But the imperative question to ask is: Will the people accept it? Will the people really\nchange?\n\nWith the recent, embarrassing vote buying/selling practiced by politicians and voters alike, it is imperative that voters’ awareness is intensified on, to:\n\n- Awaken the people and make them realize that they are at the receiving end of these\nbargains and transactions,\n- Redefine values, self-worth and morals as vote selling/buying simply highlights a decline in the aforementioned,\n- Reorient the people to know that they are the backbone of democracy and, the essence of government is to serve them; hence, whoever means well for them should not lure them with money to serve them, knowing fully well that service is not pleasure,\n- Make voters get angry with all forms of election malpractices and determine to take a new turn towards development and growth,\n- Provide voters with alternatives available to them as against being limited to choosing\nbetween the two ruling parties who have been in the helms of affairs in Nigeria for about 20 years now with little or no improvements in the country’s development, and no hope of a better future in view should either retain power in 2019.\n\nThe book is available in ebook format and you can download it through the link below:\nhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1ADcHkjGCMc0SSOJvGgzqW3A8xLxmVXL6/view?usp=drivesdk![20180927_134038.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWxcQiE7nwhcCqKf5ikTe2xJSrdxFjjYGfVTKuqGvzX2R/20180927_134038.png)",
