Hmmmn! To raise positive pikinses in a negative nation no easy! And I am aware that parents are trying their best! Times are really tough & achieving a daily win has become the key mission for most families! Pesin wey de fight for survival no get plenty time to think lofty thoughts! And when the bare necessities are a battle, every other thing begins to look like a luxury! But still, we shouldn’t neglect something as essential as lighting up the spirits & dreams of the next generation! No matter how bad today looks, we must keep talking up tomorrow!
Hope is a beautiful word! Everything dies without hope! Night no be eternity! Pesin wey dey down de look up get chance to get up! We must get back to hope both for ourselves & our children! Country hard, yes, but change fit happin soon too. Yaaah! No gree some black heart pipo wey dey govment to scatter you & your children hope! We can make it despite & in-spite of them! And importantly, the next generation can make it, no matter how skewed the terrain is! Yes o! If we chook dem hope injection today, it will guarantee that the pipo wey cheat us no go also mess with our pikin future!
The key is to train our kids tough. Train them as visionaries with values, but also as fighters! No send intelligent pikin go sukwuul to learn only how to be ‘civil servant’. Let him/her know that this foul sh*tuation for country na abomination! Pump into him the fire to go be a change maker! Only those who know the difference can make a difference!
Our kids must be hungry to make it, but also morally strong & brutal enough to resist the same evil that sat over us from ruling them! It’s a jungle out there! The odds plenty, but na only you fit give your pikinses a fighting chance! We need to be purpose parents! We must Intentionally raise dreamers & shoot dem like arrows into their generation!
“Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
“As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth” - Ps 127:3-4
The things that defeated your parents will not defeat you & the mysteries fought you will not come near your next generation in Jesus Christ name! Grace to rise & to raise a posterity of greatness is upon you in Jesus Christ name!
