Where is the Place of Young People in Nation Building?

"The youth is the hope of our future" said Jose Rizal. This and many other writings underscore the place of the youth in national building. Young people are spontaneous and adventurous. They're energetic and more responsive to change. This features give them the responsibility of driving positive change, which is a function of nation building. If you were to be a contractor who would you rather assign to supply blocks around? A young person right? Yes, young people are supposed to be given the shovel, helmets and boots to build the kind of country they want their children to live in- their dream country. I cannot undermine the place if the old. They should advice and suggest and coach, but work on the ground is our responsibility. If young people never take this responsibility into their hands, the nation will most definitely lag behind and your children will suffer the same problems you haven't solved.  It's our responsibility, we must seize it.

Burkina Faso Begins 2022 in Grand Style.

Every government has a an army who are responsible for the safety and security of the state. Sometimes when the military get unsatisfied with the executive arm of government, they resort to seize the executive power. This is in other words referred to as a coup d'etat. Most Burkinabes are familiar with that expression, I mean very familiar and I'll tell you why. As at last year, more than 200 coup d'etats have successfully happened in Africa with the most recent occuring in Chad and then Burkina Faso on the 23rd of January 2022. People have different views of coup d'etats, while some think it's detestable, others rather think it serves the best interest of the citizens. Whichever side you are on, it doesn't change that fact that one who has power in their right hand and a gun in their left hand is scary and capable of anything. This is the more reason why economic blocs frown at countries that suffer coups and lebels sanction against them especially if transitio...

WhatsApp’s change of privacy policy and how it affects you.

 Renown messaging app WhatsApp owned by Facebook has up to two billion users. Recently, all users have received a notice through a pop-up alert in the app narrowing down on the policies that are in place. This has stirred a debate on Facebook’s promise of privacy. Soon you’ll have to either use WhatsApp with those concerns in mind or switch to another messaging service. NOTE Facebook is a company as well as a social media app/site. Facebook.inc purchased WhatsApp in 2016 promising to keep user’s privacy protected as it was and that there will be no further changes. However, back then WhatsApp shared data with Facebook by default for the sake of better advert targeting. But the users could opt out at any time with no strings attached. This early 2021, the tables have turned drastically as users will no longer be able to opt out as from the 8 th of next month. Decline the new policy and you can no longer use WhatsApp at all. A lot of people (I inclusive) are disappointed wit...

Racism

Now, it is incumbent on the black man to fight back in equal measure thereby beginning a racial war but. As it is, he is rather being subtle and bearing the pain in peace. Why are blacks not returning the 'favor' of gross racial maltreatment which might result to a racial war?  Perhaps because he is a morally good person or because he feels weak to stand against the white. Whether the previous or the latter, the black man is peaceful.  #blacklivesmatter  Ngew Ndika'a Caleb  June 19, 2020 4:45am
