horlajide:

I just called Emeka my 42-yr old neighbor to come and see your list and he immediately threw “waka” at my PC screen before I reminded him say no be my lappy write am.

Here’s why - Emeka no make O’ level for school – had to sit for WAEC several other times before being eligible to sit for JAMB. Even as at that na combined result im dey use. Emeka writa jamb 6 times before them give admission for one state university. Emeka spent another 6 years in school, no thanks to “ASUU strike”. He graduates and seeks employment for two years before eventually securing one in a “one-man business” where he is paid peanut. So tell me how feasible this list is to him
1. Drivers License –For what now? For where danfo buses yampia?
2. Personal Cheque Book – Cheque book lowun lowun? But e get ATM and savings withdrawal slip sha
3. A Billionaire Friend – Physical or facebook friend?
4. Personal Savings – Yes but na only 2k dey there
5. Wife – Dat one no hard now, Emeka don marry since 28 sef but when woman meet hunger in person for Emeka house before she run comot
6. International Passport – Emeka? Internatinal Passport? 2 parallel lines!
7. Car – For what now? E be like Emeka follow Isrealites waka for wilderness that time. The guy dey trek anything
8. Land – Land? Person wey still dey owe 7 months rent?
9. HNI Club Membership – Kilonjebe?
10. Registered Company – Person never chop belleful, you say make im go create company.


^^ A common Nigerian man.
I love your comic response,keep it up

At 40, a man ought to have discovered and begun to find fulfillment in the purpose for which his maker and God created him not just these fickle and ephemeral list which a clever 19 year old yahooyahoo guy could boast of. Why are you here? What is going to be your contribution to your world and generation? By what will you be remembered after your departure from here? These are some of the questions a 40 year old man ought to be able to answer. Looking at this list, I am seriously disturbed at the kind of things we young people think are the right things. Jesus Christ said "a man's life does not consist in the abundance of the things he has". These are the things that our forebears pursue that is now almost denying us a future because they are stealing our commonwealth blind daily. let us change our thinking pattern if our nation will ever come out of the woods. Where are the Awos of our generation? Can we have a Zik again? Where are the Ahmadu Bellos of today? These people formed a strong force that fought vehemetly told liberate is from the bondage of the colonialists in their youthful days, here we are today only after money, money and more money as if its that is to life, and this is the quest everywhere including the religoous houses. The other day, a pastor started teaching his congregation how to have multiple strings of income and a lady asked for the reasons for multiple when one could do one well and be a master in it, the first reason the pastor gave was that so that they will be able to contribute more
to the work of God, meanwhile the only work of God I see around this MOG is that he. lives in the best part of town and drives 5 exotic cars/suvs. May God help us. We need thinkers in our generation not just consumers, we need investors, we need inventors. The Isaac Newtons of this world were born like us, the Henry Fords didn't fall from heaven. We can do better than them if we focus. on the right things and not pursuing the minors like international passport and cars, cheers!

a personal cheque is obsolete in this day and age and some other points e.g. point3 and others are irrelevant, am not saying it is bad to aim high in life, but be realistic and get your priorities right
