The NCAC director-general noted that travelling abroad did not allow for automatic affluence.
“It is our duty to culturally guide the country, our youths are frustrated due to the state of the economy, but it is not enough to travel out of the country to embrace menial jobs when they can stay and be creative to create wealth,” said Mr Runsewe. “There is a growing feeling of alienation among the vast majority of our youths, manifesting in various forms of restiveness and the internationalisation and exhibition of vices that are at variance with our culture.”
“We need to wake up to this reality and ensure the situation is promptly corrected by the government and parents.”JAMB Result
