NEW RELEASE: SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST

-
Today my book, “Survival of the Fittest” was released!

 
INTRODUCTION:

The walk to survival is a long way. Rhythm must not be broken.

My resolve to produce this material is stemmed from my desire to let you understand the terrain we play in, the conspiracy against us, the socio-political landscape of Nigeria and the survival strategies of these times.

I will take you down the memory lane to show you how the mistakes of yesteryears have produced undone youths and unfinished men with crooked ambitions and how our journey has been defined by a major error.

Any nation that produces more vagabonds than leaders must be ready to manage a generation of idiots. Democracy will begin to work when our curriculum is designed in such a way that it builds the leadership capacities of its products.


As a 21st century Nigerian youth, your future is dead on arrival. You are an endangered species and your survival is based on your response to the new rules of engagement. The system of education that was supposed to prepare you for survival is deficient in its ability to do so.

So we are being educated into an uncertain future. We are being educated into frustrations. We are being educated into an already over-crowded labour market.
We cannot sit idly and say we do not know what will happen in the future. Because if we let events shape our future, they would create a scenario that we do not want. And if we do not choose the future, we give allowance for the events of the past to repeat themselves.

During the industrial age, it is absolutely normal to go to school, get a degree and you have the guarantee of a good job. In this technological age, the strategy of the market has changed. Your survival in this age is tied to your understanding of the market. When the rules of engagement change, the strategy of engagement must also change so that the tough can survive.
As a Nigerian, if a day comes that your well-being is completely in the hands of the government you will be miserably frustrated. The government does not have any plan that accommodates your needs. Your future as it were lies in your hands. You must learn to succeed on your own and to give yourself the life you want. It is suicidal to rely on the government for anything.
"The future belong to those who can see ahead of others and by superior wisdom and insight have committed themselves to preparing for it."

The Pain. The Gain. The Sweat. The Survival.
Get Dressed for Life!

THE BITTER TASTE OF LIBERTY

-

David Diop, a Senegalese poet uses his poem entitled “ Africa ” to describe our independence as possessing a bitter taste after he chronicled our long-suffering experiences and plight through colonialism and post colonial era. Nigeria is the landmass composed of the remnant of many ancient empires and kingdoms. The nation was thus forged from the anvils of hegemonic tendencies, human diversity, conflict and history. Agitations for the independent state of Nigeria began in the early 50s by the likes of Azikwe, Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello. We got that liberty quite alright. But after fifty eight years, the question we should ask ourselves is: How does its fruit taste? Barely seven years after our embryonic conception, civil war broke out ! We went to war against each other; brother against brother in a senseless and preventable orgy of violence that was born out of immaturity and nationalistic infantilism. The war consumed more than two million souls. This despite the ref...

FINDING YOUR VOICE AND CONFIDENCE

-
Let me start by saying: Your Destiny is Greatness. The day comes when every person must leave the security of the nest and pursue their destiny. However, there are people who never came out of their nests because they lacked courage. They lacked confidence. When their future was presented to them, they lacked that intestinal fortitude to embrace it and step into the totality of their destiny. They chose mediocrity. They chose a low life. They chose obscurity. They chose smallness. They chose survival mentality. They chose small goals and weak ambitions. They chose to be a tenant in the terrain of their own destiny! There is a voice in you. There is a greatness that wants to break forth in you. There is a destiny waiting for expression. That voice is within you. Let me say this: Your future is not a date on the calendar; your future is a voice inside you. Your future will come from deep beneath your surface and locating your own core of potential. But our tendency is to l...

PIUS ADESANMI: EVEN IF THE ROAD TO THE CEMETERY IS CLOSED…

Even if the road to the cemetery is closed, We would buried our hero in the earth of Words. Uncle Pius Adesanmi, Thoughts are deep but the words are few, Humanity is paled by your gallant death, You are a deep fountain of intellect and illumination, Whose streams run through the crevices of the earth, Of which we have all worshiped and drank. For the first time in many moons , Humanity is stunned by the demise of a towering figure, The shadow of which influences our literary world, Vanguard of our fragile democracy, Shepherd of our national sanity, The mid-wife of our emancipation: Your words beautifully and humorously crafted, Nurtured the fading silhouette of our dreams, And we long to dance to the beats of your creativity. But suddenly the beats stopped… The water spilled and the gourd split! And what manner of life is this? Even if the road to the cemetery is closed, We would buried our hero in the earth of Words. Uncle...
