This cannot continue. We must confront this injustice with the same passion we use for fleeting fame. This is not just a southern problem; this is a national crisis. Our leadership must be held accountable.
I am consumed by a deep sense of anger and frustration. As the people of southern Nigeria march boldly through the streets, raising their voices against the insecurity that suffocates them, we in the northern regions most brutalized by this violence remain conspicuously absent.
Our despair is just as real; our families live in constant fear, yet we choose silence—or worse, we drown in the noise of social media. We are being consumed by viral distractions—leaks, scandals, gossip—while our brothers and sisters are gunned down, their futures stolen.
If you don’t know how to start a business, let me simplify it for you. Get two sheets of paper. On paper A, write down the skills you have. On paper B, write down people who need the skills on Paper A but don’t have them. Next, start marketing the skills on paper A to those on paper B. When the business begins to grow, hire people who have the skills on paper A, and let them focus on the skills, then you focus on marketing and expanding your business. That is how to start and grow a company that will make you and your employees wealthy while fulfilling your client’s needs!
If you want to be rich, stop doing what you are good at for free, even if it is your hobby. If you know how to make people laugh, charge for it. If you know how to sing, charge. That is why God gave you the talent. Not as a hobby. But as a business! Stop designing websites, landscaping, accounting or laundry for friends and family for free. It is not kindness. It is foolishness. They are making money from their own skills. You, too, should make money from yours. Turn it into a business!
