Some people’s quest for money, is it need or greed.
Take a minute to do this simple arithmetic as a way of answering the question
If someone is born, and is given one billion naira to be taking one million naira out of the one billion naira every month, that is to say, the person will take twelve million naira every year. In ten years, the person must have taken one hundred and twenty million naira. With this taking, it will take eighty years and four months for the person to finish taking out of one billion Naira.
With one million naira in a month, one will be able to eat belly full three times daily choice food. One can have the nicest clothes and shoes, save to build beautiful house, buy luxury car, take care of others and still have change to keep in a month. Yet we have been hearing about some Nigerians in the helm of affairs that steal many billions of naira in addition to the huge salaries and allowances they get every month.
You and I may not be among those in this kind of quest for money, but there is what we can do at our level to stop the undesirable trait and this is it.
The people in this habit are either our Uncles, Aunties; brothers, sisters; husbands, wives; friends, colleagues and so on.
If we sincerely resent their unpatriotic acts and constantly point it out to them that it is sheer greed, not all will listen to us but we must have succeeded in reducing their number. So please today, make it a point of duty to check among your significant others, who do you need to start talking to. If you cannot directly get to them, pass through your religious leaders or anyone else that has a way to them. Let us together strive to restore sanity to our country.
May your day be beautiful.
