Difference Between Black Youths And White Youths.

By Oscar Apuge
When the issue of differently between African Youths and European Youths come up, what is the most basic thought that flanks your mind? Apart from the colour of the skin, what else is a difference that is new under the sun. But here is a WhatsApp user, on the condition of anonymity, who has  taken to the social networking platform to share a very mind blowing story about what he feels is a descrepancy between African youths and White youths. Here is what he shared.

Sebastian Kurz 
x
Austria on December 18, 2017 made history by electing the world's youngest president who is 31 years old.

His name is Sebastian Kurz, he is just 31 years old.
Before that day’s election, he was the country's foreign minister.
While our youths are contented with being used, praise singers and Special assistants  on social media in Africa,  youths elsewhere are disrupting the status quo, pushing for innovation, changing the narrative and pushing for the new frontier.

From Facebook to Snapchat and Taxify, these tech giants were founded by millennials who are youths.
Mark Zukerberg is just 32 years old and the youngest billionaire in the world.
The bar has been raised in Austria that elected a 31 years old man as its leader.
A 31 years old man in Africa is probably in his parents' house, unemployed and broke, eating free food and not bothered.  And ready to die for certificate forging politicians.
The 31 years old Africans are feeling big supporting politicians (who directly or indirectly put us in the mess we are in) on Facebook without seeing the nexus between the failed leadership and present unemployment predicament.

I weep for our youths many of whom are wasting away forgetting that time waits for no one.
The condition in Africa is not helping matters though, and then my generation is not ready to push for change.

Those who have bank jobs think they are on top of the world, forgetting that the owners of the banks were Billionaires at their age.
The women get married and drive their husband's cars and think they have arrived.
I ask myself and other young people reading this, what are you doing with your life?
Are you happy with the way you are at the moment?
What are you doing to push for true change?

I wish you a Thought Provoking New Day.

Pls share with the youths including your children.

The Peculiarities of the Izon Language

By Oscar Apuge
Peculiarities of The Izon Language.               Phase One: Notice an interesting aspect of the Kolokuma dialect: it does not end words with a consonant sound except the nasal "n" as seen in the following examples: kpain---quiet main-----disappear/vanish moun---hunger asin----blood dein---night erein---day kpiin---extremely dark dunuin---argue, etc. It is important to reiterate that only the "n" consonant appears to end a word in Izon language, all other consonants must be followed by a vowel. Examples: emi---available eterete---circle desi---jump bara---hand, etc. This is the reason why any native user of Izon would usually and subconsciously add a vowel to English words that end in a consonant. For instance; English      Izon realization box---------boxi, bokisi drum--------drumu, duromu yam----------yamu egg-----------eggi bread---------bredi, biredi iron-----------ironi(aiyoni) Thus, the typi...

Differences

By Oscar Apuge
No two things really look the same in every aspects. Such statement is true even with the mist identical twin in the world. We are all uniquely and gloriously made by the Creator. Life's good and interesting simply because there are different places, peoples and things in the world. So,  don't look down on yourself at all. Don't even let others successfully look down on you. They can never be you, and you can never be them. Take a look at the following poem. It will teach you something: a new mind set ablaze, determined to achieve greatness and success. Only do be too wise in your difference. Always be open to instructions, good counsels. God bless. Differences Difference is what makes life interesting to everyone. Familiarity will only make it a boredom. Differences are the apples of uniqueness which crown the eyes of each human being. And no two can ever be the same no matter how hard is the metaphor. Difference speaks loudly, in that it renders even identical...

Why You Need Water Early in the Morning

By Oscar Apuge
Water is one of the best gifts of nature. Everything that has breath needs water and in the right quantity and quality. Sometimes, we say that the only liquid that has no overdose measures is water. Trust me, you have never heard or rarely been told someone is sick because of drinking too much water. What you would hear at best is that such a person is I'll due to lack of water. Having said these, what is the best thing to drink on an empty stomach every morning? Priti Chaurasia has adviced to drink enough water for peak energy and health. It’s important how we start our day. During the night while you are sleeping, you become dehydrated. You not been drinking anything for hours and your body needs to be re-hydrated. Also, your body has been working hard in repair mode and the digestive system hopefully has had a rest. We have done a mini fast since our last evening meal. In the morning we are breaking-the-fast. I attended a health seminar in my church the early part of last y...
