Hi guys, my cuties and cupcakes. It’s been a long time coming trying to roundup my Thirty days rant Challenge yet we’re still way behind. My bad, I think my life is that boring to have a lot of drama revolving around societal issues. But guess what, I finally have a gist for us. Which means another day to rant about our daily lives in connection with our present government.
Drumrolls, let’s begin. I don’t know if I mentioned that I will be going for an upgrade class in a fashion school in Asaba. Well, I just did and this is where my story begins. A school was recommended by my sister because the owner was her schoolmate. We made some inquiries and went to see the place before registering. You know, not too far from Onitsha with limited number students. So I said, why not. Let’s try it and see how it goes. I packed my stuffs and traveled to Delta State accompanied by my parents.
However, I did ask for a prospectus or a scheme of work to know what the school offers and what am expected to put in via finances. But I was told that they don’t have one and was shown a handout with a list of what we’re supposed to learn for the duration of five months. Then I was like ok, how do I know the things I needed for the classes so I can get them. And I was told again, that the school will be providing me with a starter kit which means I don’t need to bother myself for materials for a start because the projects are later. So this was how we ended the conversation with other few things we talked about.
Now, this is where the problem lies. Barely one week into class I got another shock of my life… We’re starting our sewing practicals the next week. Like WTF is going on, am I lost or something. What happens to resuming practicals later like I was so pissed off to an extend that I complained to my colleagues while we went to market over the weekend to get the materials for the project. N:B we were given the starter kit oo but that’s not all we needed for the project.
Fortunately, they didn’t even find any issues with what am saying after narrating my story. They felt like am supposed to be prepared for anything. Besides didn’t I plan myself before thinking of going to a fashion school. In my mind, I was like is the school not supposed to have a plan for me to get my own plans straight. And this is the exact reason why I asked questions before hand to avoid unnecessary problems. You don’t know my financial capacities neither will I appreciate to be taken unawares without prior notice or explanation for any sort of change in action. But this is Nigeria right? Anything goes … no structure, no accountability and nobody is bothered anymore because we’re all getting use to the system so we no longer find it offensive when someone tramples on our rights.
In order words, we’re still the same citizens that will criticize and pinpoint the actions of our current politicians because it didn’t favour us and not because it’s wrong baa? Rather we make excuses for mistakes that doesn’t affect us. It’s alright, we’re the future leaders and this is how we’re going to make a change if we can’t take each position we find ourselves worth managing.
Moreover, I will keep saying this,"it all starts from you, us being a better person for the world to change.” There’s nothing leadership is going change if you aren’t prepared for it. We’re the government spoiling the government.
Case Closed 🤷🏽♀️
That’s all for now, see you in my next post.
Bye
