The impacts of words might last longer than the speaker, that is why everyone must be careful and responsible for what he/she says.

The Nigerian president went ahead to give the world a notion that Nigerian youths are lazy. Nothing can be farther than the truth than that statement.

Though we might have handful of lazy type who are preoccupied with anything , but I will to tell the world that average Nigerian youth are very industrious and hardworking.

Many youths wake up by 4am and sleep by 11pm. Just to make ends meet. There are many graduate without jobs, how would you know if they are diligent?

Even the ones that are seen as as lazy are diligent. Only they don't channel their diligence in the right channel. Some Nigerian might go ahead to use other means in making money. Such as fraudulent means. To defraud is not easy. (I have not done one before and I don't encourage people to do it).

The time has come that the older generation need to appreciate people coming behind them. My submission is that Nigerian youth aren't lazy. I am not not lazy. 

Yours sincerely, @Oreofe360
