Violence Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by redcross, Nigeria Jun 24, 2005
Child & Youth Rights , Peace & Conflict   Poetry

  

The Nigerian youth of the 21st century have been so humilated up to the point that they are now the instrument of human destruction. They have been used, abused, dehumanized and above all denied the luxury that life has to offer the future leaders of this Great planet.

The HEART of an average Nigerian youth has been hacked and replaced with the idea of violence and killing.

The youth of Nigeria today believe violence is the best way to seek redress. Please, if there is anyone reading or listening, the youths of this EARTH need rehabilitation and love.

PLEASE SHOW US SOME LOVE. WE WERE NOT BORN TO BE KILLERS.

Most youths live positive lives
Oluyemisi Joel-Osebor (Nee Agboola) | Jul 12th, 2005
I do not agree that the youths in Nigeria believe violence is the best way to seek redress. If we compare Nigeria's population of over 130 million people to the incidence of violence - then we need to commend her. Every country has its own peculiarity and challenges and youths are not left out in such instances. However, that is not to say that everything is going on well as regards programs targeted at youths in Nigeria. There is definitely room for improvement, especially for our leaders that are charting the course o our future. I agree that we need LOVE - because LOVE is a unifying factor and can cause the positive changes we desire. Check out your statistics! There are more Nigerian youths involved in laudable initiatives - YOU are one of them! Try contributing towards a positive feat and you’ll be amazed at the ripple effect. Cheers !
