YOU WANT OUR MONEY OR OUR PROPERSITY?

As bells jingle

Many calls from campaigners

Telling us the saviour has come, and one has arisen to complete His mission

His mission! What mission? I question

To steal, kill and destroy or to save us!

You want our money or our prosperity?

Education is lagging behind friends and fair masters mate

Mr. fantani allocates a billion Nigerian Naira for his candidature

Borrows more from friends and associates and gets billion more as a gift to run the race.

You want our money or our prosperity?

On the altar of promises and the podium of graceful intentions driven by power

You read out browsed and drafted lies to the people

You say in your mind; hail me gerian fools! For I need regain my gifting

Better; Now I see why you kidnapped education and jail infrastructural development

For the renewed mind of the populace will bring light to men imposed darkness

You will never mind if u can “A” pprehend and “SUU” the union to cripple the Great Light of the Nation;

Still, you say more to come

Come let's ascend to the next level of no vision

Another says He is born again, the ship I co-wrecked, let’s get it working again

You want our prosperity or our money!

You syphoned a lot

You’ve kept a lot,

We remain the same

Guess it's not your fault, till the people wake up

Nigeria’s kingdom will surely come

In fact, education was so valuable that even a primary six graduate could secure a job. Then, parents would encourage their children to be educated in order not to end up like them. They saw education as the best patrimony they could give their children. The society's present underestimation of educational achievements in this present day is not deliberate. There are several reasons attached to this: The educational structure and its achievement in Nigeria is deficient, it is not what it used to be. The world has moved on beyond the educational system practised here. It has come to the point that a graduate might not get a good job because what he/she is being taught in schools now is different from what is being practised in both the corporate and business world alike.

THE SOCIETY AS A CAUSE AND SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM OF DRUG ADDICTION

BACKGROUND Society is a network of persons interacting within a geographically sovereign area, with unique culture, social institutions, values, Norms, roles, and sanctions governing each other’s behavior. This phenomenon is definitely the basis of individual behavior and personality development as deeply believed by Sociologist. American Sociologist C. Wright mills; stated that to understand the nature of individual behavior, the best context to place the individual is the social context/environment; then we will understand the reasons behind his/her behavioral patterns and the “individual uniqueness” this is the core foundation of his concept of sociological imagination. “ Neither the life of an individual nor the history of a society can be understood without understanding both ” C. Wright Mills (1959). The Society has without a doubt been the platform for the offshoot of great developmental strides: in technology, science, literature, in culture, in globalization, i...
