Potential knowledge, unborn manifestation, a tool with no land to work on, I could go on. Most of us are in this state especially in Nigeria, where we do not have the resources to carry out what we want to do to make an impact in the world but I came across a book written by Robert Greene, he came to the conclusion that for most of us its not that we don’t know what to do but its because we are always afraid. When Kanye West said slavery was a choice made by our ancestors, I was bitter and angry about it but then I realised he was not totally wrong, there were some black people(abolitionists) who saw it as an opportunity rather than punishment or prison to liberate the black people, back to our beloved country; we are in a country where people want to totally rely on the government to do something we tend to forget we have rights and fail to exercise them then year after year we allow certain illiterates to rule us, we pray a thousand times without taking action(protests) instead we play funny games between ourselves to cheat one another, the private investors who have made their money have little or no interest in what’s happening in the country. My people, the point is, this is not the time to shy away from our problems but face them head on, WE are the country, without us there is no one to rule. As for the fellow youths like me who are still looking for ways to step up and make a difference, keep learning and don’t give up for the breakthrough is near.
