Father!




Most fathers in Africa are yet to be alive to their responsibilities just like government. The role of a father is very significant in a family and it is also quite similar to the role every responsible governments should play in the lives of her people.

Vision (Ideologies): the job of chatting the course in any family is the responsibility of the man. The man should be able to cast the vision of a preferable picture.

Resource: A father should be the resource of the family, financially, intellectually and in terms of Networks. He should be alive to the fact that he is the first stop dictionary and institution to his family as regards to getting resources.

Justice: The father should be able to serve justice and to subject himself to justice. That is what we called "rule of law".

Accountability: You must be accountable to the brunt bearers, despite the characteristics of an independent person. He should also be able to display the quality of responsibility through accountability, especially before taking a critical decision that would have a direct impact on his citizens.

Then a father should model what it means to be a citizen while preparing his citizens for the position of a leader. Meaning; he must exemplify the qualities of a good citizen and teach his family to do same.

A father is deliberate, intentional. Does not act  impulsively, does not bring a life without necessary plans, he's concerned about the well-being of his citizens.

Be a model, don't be that father,
Be A  Father.

Trusting them blindly is akin to living in a cycle of déjà vu, where they justify their actions while contradicting the interests of the people. Remember the proposal some time back that all politicians should educate their kids within Nigeria? The dismissive response to that idea was telling. It's clear they prioritize their own convenience over the needs of the people. We mustn't be naive to think they have our best interests at heart. It's imperative for us, the citizens, to organize and protect our own interests. Unity among us is paramount, transcending divisions based on religion

The Merchant of Venice

I got to the point of deliberately using movies as an extension of my library. It was 2 weeks to the exam and the book "Merchant of Venice" would not enter my skull no matter how hard I tried, it was a book written by Shakespeare and like the usual Shakespeare style of writing this would be a bit technical also because of its settings (in literature setting means the actual place and time of an event). This literature is centred around the old Italian environment. So there were many terminologies used in English that were unclear because of the Italian twist. Don't forget it was 2 weeks before the WAEC (West African Examination Council) Exam.  The Twist - So my beautiful literature teacher got informed that there was a premiere of the Merchant of Venice book (the movie) at another school and gave us the update. It was the needed update very sure than any 'maga or fraudsters' update would rely on. It was a turning point in how I would begin seeing and interacting w
