There's a notorious programme just
recently concluded called THE BIG BROTHER NAIJA. The winner of this notorious
show walked away with a whopping N25 million and a breathtaking car. All that
is required to win this show is to be Live with a bunch of fellow crazy,
irresponsible people, do all sorts of immoral things, and, viola, you're the
winner.
Next thing, you're called a celebrity, winning big
advertisement contracts and becoming the face of multinational companies. In
fact one of them has already been made the ambassador of entertainment by the
Plateau State Government (you are shocked?)
If only there could be an educating
version of this programme. If only they could house some intelligent people in
like manner and make them compete for similar prizes. But, no! Our people do
not encourage sanity. Our society promotes evil over good, indecency over
decency, immorality over morality, and ungodliness over godliness.
The best in Mathematics competitions will go home with
either a carton of cowbell milk or Indomie noodles, ridiculous stipends and
laughable prizes. Yet these morons in BBN earned millions for coming to suck
breasts, speak thrash, display nudity, and get under the sheets on
International TVs.
Our rich individuals, companies and corporate
organisations will spend huge sums of money sponsoring dirty shows like BBN and
Beauty Pageants where they will enthrone satanic activities, display nudity,
molest our under aged girls, and make them win on bottom power rather than on real
beauty and brains. Can anyone forget the Anambra State
What a wasted generation! What a time! How do we raise,
nurture and produce the next Chike Obis, Chinua Achebes, Wole Soyinkas, Cyril Stovers,
Ngozi Okonjo-Iwealas, Arunma Otehs, Obafemi Awolowos, Ahmadu Bellos, W.F Kumuyis,
David Oyedepos???
What foundation are we laying for
coming generations? What message of hope and legacy are we leaving behind? What
epistle are we sending to the future to testify to it that the past made some
level of contributions? Is Immorality the legacy we really want to hand down to
the next generation? Are we not losing our minds?
Let all people of goodwill come together and raise alarm
against this dirty programme. Let us all with one voice and in unison say, "We've had enough of this
nonsense." Let us blow the trumpet in Zion
I know this kind of write up doesn't get many shares.
But if we keep quiet, then we are silent conspirators.
So share. Share
until a thought process is provoked in the heart of everyone and we can stand
up to say, Enough of this nonsense."

You are absolutely right sir. I wonder why our government has not completely banned it and spontaneously sponsor an enriching educative program? Thanks for this nice write up.
