 Cleric Identifies Laziness as Instrumental to Get Rich Quick Syndrome


By David Okpala/Stella Okpala


The Parish Priest, St. Paul's Catholic Church, Akpo, Rev. Fr. Cyriacus Ubah, has identified laziness as instrumental to get rich quick syndrome(Ego Mbute), asking parents to rise to it.


He said this in a homily during Mass, at the Church, in Aguata LGA, on August 10.


The cleric enjoined parents to bend their children's behaviour to shape, when they are still malleable and easy to bend.


"Children's behaviour are better shaped between age one and five. At this age, they understand themselves as infants and take instructions as they come to them through parents.


"So, waiting until they get to teenage age where they consider themselves adults, do what seems right to them and not what they are told, it becomes difficult to shaping their behavioural pattern. 


"We need to catch them young, if we must achieve better society.


"It is negligence of duty on our parts as parents, if our children even in the nursery school could come back with another's pencil without our knowledge. We need to know the contents of our children's school bag while going to school and it's contents when they are back home.


"We need to query and reject everything we did not buy for them. With this, we must have made them understand that properties are worked for and acquired."


According to him, it is beneficial to take your children to your farm even when they are not grown enough to work in your farm.


"They need to see you sweat at the farm, so when they start eating from the farm, they will know, it is sweat/dirtying of hands that brings good food to the table(Aka aja aja na-ebute onu mmanu mmanu).


"Inculcate spirit of hard work in your children from kiddies, so as to make them develop muscles to bearing life challenges."


He emphasized that the menace of get rich quick syndrome, prostitution, armed robbery, human organ harvest, kidnapping for ransom, are all products of laziness.


"Make your children flee from these ugly vices as you work hard, making them to work hard.
