GREATNESS - PRAISE FOWOWE

It was another awesome time at the Gold in the Slum meeting this sunday as Mr Praise Fowowe was on hand to challenge our people to taking responsibility for our world.
The news all over the world right now is that by Dec.31, 2025 Nigeria our beloved country would have become undoubtedly the most desirable nation on planet earth.
People have even come up with a 4D image of what the various parts of the country would look like by then but there is a problem....
if live expectancy in malawi is 37 and botswana is 40 and swaziland is 39 what will happen to Nigeria. Of what use is the most desirable nation when 75% of its population is already HIV positive.
Mr Praise asked some soul searching questions that left the 200 man audience spell bound
- How many future Dora Akunyilis would drop out of school this year in Ajegunle because of unwanted pregnancy?
-How many future Bill Gates would become bus conductors in Ajegunle this year?
-How many future Prof. Pat Utomi would die of HIV/AIDS this year.
He went on to challenge everyone present to take responsibility for the people on their streets by planting a sex-pure-centric frienship centers where the future of the 2025 Nigerians would be preserved.
He ended the session on a very emotional note by singing his own version of the National anthem
Arise oh Ajerians
Ajeria calls obey
to save our father land
with love and strength and faith
the labour of our heroes past shall never be in vain
to serve with heart and might
one ghetto bound in freedom
peace and Unity
we can! we must! and we will.


The goal for us is to increase our 66 friendship centers to 200 by the end of the year and we all know it is possible.
