When people exercise their right to give birth to children, without accepting the responsibility to inculcate values into their children, the society suffer for it.
See what palliatives has caused us. Moving forward, I suggest Nigerian government should take urgent steps to reduce prices of foods, and discontinue with storage of palliatives to avoid further abuse by few opportunists.
The prolong strike by ASUU is outright brutalization of the dreams and aspirations of Nigerian students. Policies are meant to shapen institutional framework.
As a PhD student, I have deep respect for University lecturers in Nigeria. But looking at the causal issue, that led to ASUU strike, ( compusory enrollment in IPPIS platform), I think it's high time we tell ourselves the gospel truth.

It is high time we take issues of population control seriously. We can grow our food locally, improve our educational system, security, health, science and technology, deemphasize religion, block leakages, improve power supply, insist on meritocracy etc.
I'm however console by the the understanding that we have all it takes to succeed as a nation and attract the world. Western colonialism was necessitated by their search for resources to build Europe.
The question we should be asking ourselves is why do Nigerians take desperate steps amidst uncertainties to travel elsewhere. If we fail to answer these questions now. Then we don't need a spiritualist to prophesie more persecution of Nigerians in the future.
In 2017 European Union Government reportedly had a deal with Africa countries on the edge of the sea to stop illegal migrants from crossing over to Europe. A cursory study of Nigeria population shows clearly that a vast majority of these migrants are Nigerians.
My heart bleeds each time I see video of xenophobic attack on Nigerians in South Africa. I'm away a high power federal government delegation visited South Africa in 2017 over the same issue. The other day Nigerian traders in Ghana reportedly suffered hostility by Ghanian Govt.
