A Facebook user took took to his timeline to lament about poor reading culture and how wayward Nigerian youths have become on social media

Unfortunately people don't take time to read nice write-ups and articles on Facebook anymore all i see this days are females competing to slay and flaunt their new hairs, clothes shoes, and smart phones. Its soo pathetic how Facebook likes and comments has been accorded soo much value and has become an archivment and a thing to brag about... Soo bad how Facebook has become a display show room were young boys come to flaunt wrist watches, belts, borrowed cars, phones and how they are self proclaimed dope ass niggas. I weep for the generation I find myself where an 18yrs old can not pass jamb but has over 3 boyfriends, where the norm and trends of the day is to do what ever it takes (good or bad ) just to impress people and prove a worthless point. Where we now live our lives based on what people think and how they feel.. There's an ideology of everyone wanting to make money wanting to work or stress for it.. The best investment you can give your self is to always learn and educate yourself... Feed your self and invest in your future.... Everything happening in your life doesn't necessarily has to be on social media... INOKON HENRY Emmanuel Kings

People read. I read. I know tons of Nairalanders that read. In fact, it's a myth that today's youths don't read. It just that they listen more to certain people. Today's youth, unlike our fathers whose reading are restricted to the newspaper, take out time to read people's rant. They read articles. I happen to be page administrators on many pages online. I run several blogs- mine and for others, I see the way people clamour for things that are true, facts and findings.
Today's youths read. They do but not what you like. They have bits of knowledge about many things.

Too long; didn't read.
