What goes around comes around is a popular maxim that explains why some current events happen the way they do. Scientists, especially physicists have established the fact that there is a cause behind all effects human beings experience. This is the same thing social scientists explain either as the law of posterity or nemesis. Meaning, your present actions are like stones thrown at a wall which will bounce back to the thrower.
A lot of people today, reproduce children But how many of these people take cognizance of child upbringing. Every time I drive or trek along some roads in our cities, my heart bleeds for these nation and I ask myself: “What does the future hold for this nation?” Our streets and roads are flooded with minor miscreants, beggars, brothel whores, teenage mothers and wanderers who portend bad omen for sane human habitat.
Today we fight insurgencies of MEND, MASSOB, IPOB and Boko Haram locally while that many others are there at the global landscape. Has anybody taken time to ask: “How did this people grow up to this level?” Where were their parents and what were they doing when this people were children, teenagers and school goers?”
You’ll definitely agree with me that parental negligence was the factory that produced them. There is also no gainsaying the fact that negligence is the mother of deprivation while the latter leads often the time to agitation. Wherever there is agitation, the result is usually violence and insurgencies if not properly managed. Generally, there is no management of deprivation than to undo the error. That is giving the deprived its due right.
We suffer insurgencies in Nigeria and other parts of the world today mainly because we deprived some section of the populace their educational right in the past. Not only this, many of the educated percentage of the working class are deprived the right to gainful employment under which they will be independent economically and contribute to the national GDP. In addition to this, any beneficiary of a system will never take an action that will spell its doom.
I appeal to all stakeholder: parents, governments, NGOs and the international community to ensure we return all out-of-school children to their various schools and provide jobs for our teeming gradutes for national development.
