Looking beyond the physical....That shows a rich mind product, creating something from available means, if these kids were in China or America, the world will hear and celebrate them, but as the merry-go-round situation is in Africa, we will make statements and forget about these budding-lovely dream! 1 Like |

This picture tells a lot of stories, like most pictures do.......................... The story that captivates me the most is the lack of recreational facilities available for our kids to play with in Nigeria...... I remember as a kid growing up in Nigeria, we were so poor back then, my parents couldn't afford to buy football for me. Football was so precious back then that if you were a kid with football, we will worship you like a god. We had to improvise, and had to use oranges and lemons to play football. When my Aunt finally sent be a leather football from Belgium, I guarded so much,and even slept beside my precious 'leather' football. Providing these facilities for kids across the country is cheap, and has long-term benefits. It will ensure at least we don't come back from Olympics empty-handed and will make it difficult for our kids getting recruited by MEND and Boko Haram. 1 Like |

Innovative no doubt, but personally I call this poverty, I mean this is retrogression. The rich kids can never be caught doing this all in the name of being crative. The sight took me back to the days of slavery |

I'd NEVER pass by a scene like this without digging my hand deep into my pockets to help them buy a proper snooker set.....or at the very least, give them something for their commitment and dedication to the game. |

I see the picture is different things to different people.Someone even said 'chai' .It seems they(the kids) were born and bred in an Ethiopian village,so I won't say 'backwardness'with respect to their location.Afterall,Nigeria should be considered backward as a whole wen compared to other developed nations of d world.This is a great innovation and creativity backed with ingenuity.Watch out!!! These kids will go places if given d opportunity. |
