Entertainment is not inherently bad. The fatal problem is when a society breeds more clowns than builders. A nation of builders will always outperform a circus of jesters.
It's a value system problem. We are not the only poor people on earth. Poverty is not a Nigerian world. But we have a mindset that completely revolves around money worship.
People are not trying to be rich to live a better life. It is an announcement that they have arrived. Their turn to be worshipped as they have worshipped others. It is why we have more rich fools than elites.
He spoke with measured wisdom.
The current Nigerian reward system is skewed against values. The society now rewards emptiness, ignorance, and illiteracy.
Gone are the days when First Class graduates are rewarded with automatic employment, scholarship, or sufficient cash gifts.
These days the people who get cash rewards are the likes of Peller and Carter Efe, who spend a better part of their daily hours playing folly on live camera.
Even to reward intellectual content with some engagements on X, Nigerians would rather camp on Ruth or Seunโs comments for some mentally-degrading bants.
The culture of intellectualism, where intelligence, morality, and core values are celebrated, is rapidly fading away, and being replaced by that of loud ignorance and immorality.
Hope this helps.โ๏ธ
