And it goes;
I sometimes sit down and ponder upon the high rate of
indiscipline and immorality in our modern day society, and I wonder on how
things got so bad.
In my research and thoughts I noticed that children of this
generation are exposed to harmful images, videos and movies via the internet.
This exposes them to sexual sins, violent acts like shooting and murder, traits
of hatred and so on. Because of this, the traits, values and morals passed to
children from their parents, church and school are tampered with and destroyed.
When the internet and other vices fight against the good
morals of parents it leaves a bad mark on the child. This causes the child to choose
between two conflicting values. So this causes children mostly teens to live
immoral and ungodly lives.
I also noticed that the blame should not only be put on the
Social media, but also the parents of some children. Parents who try to act
like white people that they are not. They forget the values of Africans like
respect, honesty and so on. This makes their children to lack good moral
values.
In the world we are today, it is cool for teenagers to do
things that are evil and immoral. For instance in schools or gatherings of
teenagers, the people that do the bad and immoral things are the ones that are
considered as the cool kids. This makes others to want to fit in, so they
Start to do immoral things. This leads to a decline in
discipline.
Lastly, the government are not doing anything to help matters,
because they are also immoral and undisciplined. Their indiscipline mostly
comes together with corruption.
Corruption is second biggest problem we are facing on Nigeria,
as far as I am concerned. The biggest is the fact that Nigerians have a wrong
mentality to life and they live a life of poverty, although they have the
ability to counter it.
I call it the poverty of the mind.
You see government officials like the police collecting "owo odun",
as the Christmas and New Year period just passed. They don't follow their sole
responsibilities, but instead do the total opposite.
This brings us to the fact that everywhere you go; just like
mtn. Indiscipline is found there.
