Lack Of Reading In Nigeria by Orikinla(m): 11:12am On Aug 28, 2013
Lack of reading is having a negative effect on the IQ of majority of Nigerians, who think like idiots and behave like idiots.

Majority of our youths don't read, but they gossip, lie and spread unfounded rumours on the go and have failed to contribute to the innovative ideas of change and modern development.

Great readers make great leaders.

Anyone who cannot create a good job for himself and others is worthless.
