MOMENT OF TRUTH with Richard.
By Richard Ugbeh –
In the late 70s and 80s, CBN, NNPC, MINISTRIES and a few others weren’t a better place to WORK. How much was salary then? Nothing to talk about.
Then your take home can’t TAKE YOU HOME. Yes, that was it then. People prefer to work in the FACTORY where offers were a bit manageable. The main team of this volume is not the issue of better or less Pay Packet BUT how many of the people got the JOB then.
I remember it all as if it was yesterday some of the Early settlers of UKWANI extraction in Lagos, Warri, Kano making headline News in various sectors, still most of our youth then now ONOTUS were in search of any kind of Job to make a living.
As a man or woman in AUTHORITY is there no one close to you passing through many HURDLES still not yet found a place to make out a living for himself and family, even without telling you, he’s in dire need of your assistance, no time is RIPE to do good. Friends and Relations are for inconveniences. At times assistance rendered could turn bad but that doesn’t make man in Authority to look the other side.
In every community, there are notable individuals who by virtue of the position and personality in the society can do wonders through phone calls, written note to WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, the job, the Contract is yours. Are you one of them in that category ? Please do something to someone even if you have done it severally, don’t be TIRED, ” osanakpodike”. E,no de help, that shouldn’t be attachment to ones Name.
Needles to enumerate benefits of assistance, I happened to be in attendance of High Chief Onyenweosa son’s marriage party held some years back, that occasion to my estimation worth more than what is allocated to a local government monthly, dignitaries from all fields were present, some wife/wives and Children were all in attendance.
What makes the difference from information gathered was that High Chief Onyenweosa was highly connected and when in active service, he assisted many in getting JOB in Customs, NNPC, Chevron, manufacturing companies, just name it. his boys were there, Tell me why wouldn’t he be worshipped.
The important aspect of wealth is to see the impact in the people around you, a good case study is the current President, one may hate or love him, one thing people talked about him was his mind of giving, Remember the hands that giveth, always on TOP not Top beer. Many are talented out there, little Push they get their bearing right. Nothing Moves without a MOVER.
Be an engine room to someone today, you will be glad you did. Let’s the NARRATIVES change. Be counted amongst those that raised men & materials in the community unlike early men who only focused on I ALONE.
Prayer Point for all in Authority: ” Thank you Lord for making me a man/ woman of Authority, give me the mind to assist those around me and forgive me for not responding to those issues I suppose to because of the negative thoughts I had on my people, so HELP ME GOD.
