Many of you can bear me witnesses, to have worked, interacted or even lived with city boys.
There is much to learn and to experience what they go through, how it feels being in the city without a job or even a place you can call your home.
City is one place, whereby having money is easy though one uses many different ways to get it, at least enough for a day.
One funny thing with city boys is that they love money but they never love working for it, which means one put his/her all efforts to search for money using illegal means.
Some beg for bread in the streets, others doing manual jobs, some resort to drugs and crime to have money. At times, one can wake up early at dawn when the sun rises, only to look for job till dusk, still no luck. When such happens, some prefer to idle around; others drink recklessly while some prefer gambling.
Talk of the vices, one never gets to realize what is happening when you one is in you never realize what s happening in life as they get in you, you can never think of anything to do, it’s like you get addicted, just like the smokers are.
Like gambling for instance, I have gambled for more than three years and all I can say is, gambling is never good, I never knew how I used to spend the money we got after gambling as everyday you wake up with nothing left even for you to have breakfast.
To my opinion, don’t gamble for you to have a good life.
Thank God, Rastafarian is my security, in my coming in and going out , guide I God, in my ups and downs, keep me far from demons and vampires, protect me from Satan.

No one deserves to be illiterate especially if there is free education in primary level and also free tuition in secondary level.
Education is the key to success in this lifetime and it has no end no matter the age, gender and so on. The constitution states every child has a right to acquire basic education. If necessary force can be used by law enforcers to make people especially the parents abide by the constitution.
Never the less, citizens have an obligation to ensure children go to school, not necessarily that one must have a child so as to take action. The child is the state property.
With that in mind we can be hopeful that the future of this beloved country is on safe hands if education is given the first priority.
