Please describe your vision of a world that works for everyone.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

My vision is pitched on Three Pillars:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Sound and Compulsory Education for all Children: with this in place, every child will have the opportunity to replace a closed mind with an open one. It will shatter all intellectual despondency and create an avenue where productive thinking is the apex of all human endeavors.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Serene Environment: the English saying, \u201cNeatness is beauty\u201d can be alive in all nations. Many epidemics, especially in African countries are caused by dirty environments. With the sense of maintaining a very neat environment where grasses are truly green and streets are perfectly free from littering, humans can be proud of being an architect of beauty.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Maintaining the sense of orderliness, peacefulness, and excellence in our concern for human existence.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

In our contemporary world, Deficits of Respect for the Prosperity of All stands as the challenge for a better standard of living for many humans. Poverty is wrongly propagated as the problem, but it is just the resultant-effect where \u201cdeficits of respect for the prosperity of all\u201d is felt, since poverty, according to a tutored phenomenon, is a disease hyper-intentioned by men. When the prosperity of a people is despised either intellectual-wise or infrastructural-wise, surplus of disorderliness will be the order of occurrences. As individuals, few will be willing to contribute to the prosperity of a fellow or a junior, with the popular defense of limited resources; as government of nations to her peoples, insufficient funds to finance infrastructures is a common defense.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you feel these problems could best be solved?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The contemporary world problem advanced is Deficits of Respect for the Prosperity of All. This prosperity will be aided under the auspices of Intellectual and Productive Development. On Intellectual Development, it is my strong believe that the first rung of the ladder to a prosperous world is sound education. This will require a compulsory primary education, and at other level of study, teachings should be engaged to providing necessary internship programs, most especially at the tertiary levels for all courses of study. This will abort the saying that, \u201cmany of our graduate are unemployable.\u201d On Productive Development, government of nations, especially those of Africa, do complain of insufficient funds in carrying out development programs. It is true that nothing works better than work itself. The contributing factor of wealth for a country; as advanced by many political economists is to be production-oriented. The country that works best in the production of goods and services gets more money, logic not magic rules. If poor countries get to be production-oriented, imbibe diligence, and exact a global sense of exportation, and whose population balances to the share of their respective revenues, they cannot be tagged poor.<\/span><\/p>\n
