 economic equality. For me economic equality is the ability to create for yourself the life that you want, not the life that the society expects of you or the life that your greed might suggest, but the life that you crave through self-knowledge and awareness, hunger for purpose and a desire to reach your full potential. We can only serve society and others if we empower to do so. One way to achieve economic equality is through equality of opportunity, ensuring that everyone has a chance, seeing every single being as an asset to the world that should not be wasted. Ubuntu means I am because you are. In fact the word Ubuntu is just part of the Zulu phrase which literally means that a person is a person through other people. Ubuntu has its roots in humanistic African philosophy, where the idea of community is one of the building blocks of society. We have to reach a level of awareness where every single person is viewed as an important member of society that is waiting to be explored. Economic equality ensures that time which is our most valuable asset is utilized completely. Economic equality is freedom, freedom to be, to live, to grow, to create. I believe that when economic equality is achieved all other forms of discrimination would be minimized. The poverty I see in our society today is frightening and can be best described as a dire situation. No one should be allowed to live under such conditions. It is the little things that make life decent and worthwhile. Hence, one should not be reached or for the distant life, nourishing food, conducive shelter, clean sheets to sleep on and won't plug in. Well, interesting perspective K2. I would like to say I've always had the notion that economic opportunity or equality can only be brought about when you as a nation understand your full potential. So the problem with the country like Nigeria is okay we have 5.4% of the world's entire natural resources. We have six most populous nations in the world and we've never utilized any of that to get anywhere. Just look at the kind of let's say the average phones. Nigeria is probably the highest, of course, most valuable phone used in the world. Nigeria is the highest buyer in Africa. Why don't we have a manufacturing company here? Which means we don't even think of ourselves. We get to that kind of point. I don't think we'll be able to go anywhere. Abdul? Just to answer you before Abdul Chipsen, you're absolutely right. It has to, if we can't build a country, we can build, we can achieve economic equality. And this is just, I'm hoping that this topic will be yet another motivation to start to think about building a nation that really serves us and for our own benefit. I mean to me your topic basically just asked me one question. If we're, right now Nigeria is just surviving. We've not reached that stage where we can, to me basically, where we can say we can do more than survive. We need policy. We need infrastructure, not just infrastructure, as in physical infrastructure, infrastructure, as in give businesses, businesses is what's going to lift people up. Business is what's going to make, give the people the freedom because not everybody can get that job in government. Not everybody has the opportunity to get that job in business. So until we can, we can make, give the businesses, the small, medium and big businesses the opportunity to thrive to the highest level. We will not get to that stage. So we need a government that will put businesses first, make, give businesses a fair playing ground where everybody can compete. I know that if anything goes wrong, there's law, there's regulation to judge people and to do the right thing. Without that, we cannot get that individual economic freedom and stability and enhancement that we want and we need, in my view. I would really like to hear about comfort reading and say about this comfort. I don't know. I'm actually frustrated at this one. We're talking about economic equality. I can't even get the damn network to stay stable for God's sake. This is just one of the many, the small things. It's so pedestrian in other countries that it's frustrating in my own country. I can't even have it just, you know, I'm ready to pay for the data. And then we're talking, you know, and we're talking about the economic equality. How will that happen if the people were put in the places that they should make policies for us that will help us as selfish? They're not ready to do it. They are robbing the system. They are raping the system. And then we, too, are not holding them accountable. I'm just going to give a small example of what I mean. I just came back from Kotakot, and I followed what they call the East Western Road, or East West Road for crying out loud. This is the major road that connects and moves our, the what you call it, goods and services, including appeal. It's a federal road. It hasn't been done. Why? Because of politics. Politics of even the people who are there. Why are those sick people? Why? What happened to the citizenry of those areas that they've allowed the same people who are holding that road and that place to run some? Why are they still in government? Why? And as long as we, it's still way for me, because these people are not from the pit of hell. They're from among us here in our communities. As long as we still keep them there, year in, year out, which economic equality? Which one? Which one are we struggling for? When me and you are all we're trying to do is to survive at the rate, at this rate. If I'm trying to survive, I'm not really going to be sitting down to be thinking about my neighbor. I'm sorry, at this point, because I just want to survive. The same is the same environment that I'm in that you too, you're in. So if I'm not surviving or I'm not surviving, how do you want me to take this small survivor that I have to help your own survivor? I don't know. I don't know what to do with you, I don't know. It's exactly the same thing. Yeah. Comfort, you took this, you took this foul. You have become an head zoomer. Yeah, just to add to what Comfort said, I mean, the topic is really to stares to us realizing that we have one shot at life and it's an emergency. It is your life and we have to live it and not survive it. We're here to thrive and not to survive. And if we're surviving, then we're doing something wrong. And we should realize that for everyone, not just the privileged few, but for everyone, everyone has a right to thrive. So we spent too much time surviving. Yes. We haven't left that stage yet. Exactly. And your comfort is right about one thing. It's the same people that keep some putting us in that survival stage. Yeah. They're still there 10 years later. Exactly. And now, as she's well said, election is soon. Are we not going to elect the same people who have done nothing? No, no, no. I think we need to correct something. In Nigeria, we don't have an election. We have a selection. Selection. So yeah, so they just present the devil and the blue sea and you must make a choice. And this is because we're not part of political parties or we're not doing anything. So what happens is we just go row with the wind. But with the selection you said, we also have to also tell the people the selection does not stop at Asorok. No, no, the point I'm making is that because we do not participate in political parties, that is why it's the selection. Like if you go to other advanced countries or even countries that are behind us, people are part of political parties. They help the candidates emerge from primaries. In Nigeria, no one knows what's going on in American primaries but cannot tell you what's going on in Nigerian primaries. That's where the problem is. How many people know who the local government chairman is? That's why you're asking mathematics. You don't even know what word they're in. So up next is comfort. Stay with us.
