The Power of Skill Acquisition displayed by a wonder kid
According to Instagram user, Chygoz who shared the photo, the 10 yer old boy's name is Olakekan and he is a barber. He charges 1k per barbing and is the most sort after in the salon where he works. He wrote;
Courtesy Linda Ikeji's blog"Meet Olalekan, the wonder kid barber responsible for my cut. He's 10 years old, in JSS1 and he earns atleast 5,000 naira daily from barbing..... Parents please stop training your children like toys. Those little kids you see at home have more in them than you can imagine... Help their future, give them a chance."
Believe it or not training up a child to acquire skills while still attending school is a good way to train up a child in this present generation.
They will end up becoming educated assets that can create jobs rather than becoming educated liabilities.
This is the kind of revolution that the youths of Nigeria should yearn for rather than craving for thuggery, violence, and senseless protest that yields little or no result.
Skill acquisition is highly essential today in Nigeria, whether you are an undergraduate or a graduate, public or civil servant, it is necessary for self empowerment.
The time has come to look off government for everything now in Nigeria. We need to look inward for what we can do to make our lives better.
Nigerians are known for handwork and hustling all over the world we can do it to make Nigeria great and better than other countries were we seek greener pasture.
