It’s time we have a conversation, about the menace caused by uncultured boys/men in our society.
It’s high time we agree to a fact that our silence on this issue is no longer golden, there’s need for all hands to be on deck, speaking alone isn’t enough, these words needs to be backed up by actions.
We must agree to a fact that “Millennials need Fixing”, starting from our patterns of dressing, the way we talk (silina tested), who we accept as our role models and most importantly the company’s we keep.
The idea of having pressure groups to represent our interests (especially during elcetion period) should be adopted on this issue too, in order to ensure that we’re all properly educated, informed and enlightened on how the action(s) of one uncultured man affects everyone in the society.
It’s high we as individuals and parents assume the responsibility of educating every boy child on the effects of drugs abuse, cultism, shisha smoking, cyber-stealing (Yahoo Yahoo or worst of all Yahoo-plus) and alcoholism.
We must engage the boy child mentally to ensure he maximizes the full potential of his psyche and enjoy fruits of its productivity.
As people of faith, let’s go back to the teachings of the Holy book to rekindle our wakened faith.
Fixing the boy child is my responsibility
Fixing the boy child is your responsibility too
It is the responsibility of every class room teacher
It is the responsibility of all our elected representatives
It is the responsibility of the Church as well as that of the Mosque
Fixing the boy child is part of building our society
Fixing the boy child today is part of saving the future generation
Fix the boy child today to ensure the girl child grows up protected and respected.
