Education; The Awareness
<p>Knowledge + Action = Power</p><p>Education = power&nbsp;</p><p>Which is to say Knowledge + Action = Education&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>I was born into a society where people were being <strong>Scammed</strong> , where what the people want is <em>Quantity</em> not <em>Quality</em>.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Few years ago, I came about a story headline and a video where our Governor said They just constructed over a 1000 meters of our Road, the people were so happy, saying our new Government are doing wonderful things even in our state, but I thought within myself that...wait oh what is with this scam, All they did for a whole tenure was just 1 kilometer of our road and they painted it big, I overlooked that.</p><p><br></p><p>After a few years, we were to be given palliative from the government, and we saw on social media platforms that the government has started distributing palliatives to the people, to each family <em>a whole 1000 gram of rice and all</em>, and then I knew this guys were just using numbers to deceive the people, mostly the illiterate, the whole 1000 grams of rice is just 1 kilo gram of rice which is approximately around 1 Derika and 1 cup of rice in cups measurements, 5 cups approximately, for each household. I just laughed and sighed, 'where some family consume about 7 cups on a go, I mean for just a meal', I thought.</p><p><br></p><p>I hope to be able to teach this to everyone in the society to stop being scammed with large figures, just like saying I will Invest a sum of 2 million Won which is South Koreans Currency and approximately 2.1 million Naira into Youth Empowerment, that is how we have all being scammed years back but we have to start teaching the coming generation well so they won't also fall victim of this same thing.</p><p><br></p><p>Have you ever put into action one thing you learnt in school into the society? Have you ever evaluated something seeming big to be small in the society? Is your society also like this? Are you willing to make your society less Ignorant or rather eradicate Ignorance?</p><p>Let me know in the comment section</p>
