When Community Development Association(CDA), Okaeghele and
Okaevbo were dissolved in Edo State, the affected individuals including teaming
youths received the news with a terrible shock. The reason for this reaction is
not far-fetched. For so many years, youths have relied solely on community activities as a means of
survival. Hence, most neglected other means of livelihood including acquisition
of critical skills.
Worse still, many did not have any savings and were notoriously
spending extravagantly in parties and bar spots. Today the situation has
changed. But is all hope lost? Never!
WHAT TO DO
Now is the time to face reality and do a proper analysis of
alternative jobs available. It is not too late to learn a new skill. No matter
your age there is always something for you to do. Some eight years ago, a man in his
late 40s with children learned vulcanizing(fixing bad tires of all kinds). Today, he has a storey building and
sponsoring children in higher institutions. To say the least, he is excelling
financially as his workshop is besieged by customers everyday.
THE LESSON
Put shame aside and be ready to acquire any skill. In fact,
you can choose any of the following key areas:
1.
How to repair phones and sales of phone accessories.
I have a friend who is into this business and you won’t believe he makes so much
money. From this business, he acquired many properties that I know of. Besides,
he drives a jeep.
2.
Laundry services. You can also excel in this
area if you are determined
3.
Welding. This requires patience and dedication
4.
Fixing of generators and sales of generator
parts
5.
Photography. You can learn this within a short
time and be a boss
6.
Bricklaying or painting. Recently, there is an
increase in building activities in Edo State. Key into this area.
