No one licks ass like some of my fellow Enugu youths who have graduated from university but have no jobs. It breaks my heart every time I see young, educated graduates in Enugu following politicians around, licking their asses just to survive. The worst part is that these politicians do not empower them with anything substantial that could give them financial independence. Instead, they deliberately keep them dependent on crumbs. I was shocked when I spoke with one of these young graduates and discovered that all he was getting was between ₦30,000 and ₦50,000 a month. How exactly is a university graduate supposed to survive on ₦30,000 to ₦50,000 a month in today’s Nigeria? And what future is he supposed to build with that? This is one of the biggest problems we must confront in Enugu State. We cannot continue to raise educated young people only to turn them into political praise singers who depend on politicians for their daily bread. One of the major focuses of our vision for @ourenugu will be JOB CREATION. Real, visible, sustainable job creation. Not the kind of job creation politicians announce at press conferences without meaningful opportunities for our young people. We must build an Enugu where young graduates can find decent jobs, earn a living, start businesses, and build their futures without having to follow politicians around begging for survival. Our young people need opportunities, not political handouts. They need economic freedom, not permanent dependency on politicians. An Enugu where a young man must lick a politician’s ass to survive is not the Enugu we should be building.
