Speaking to a group of young engineers at a conference in Benin,I raised the question of when is it right to disobey one's parents or employer in taking a decision. Many of them gave divergent answers but one was very remarkable,the young man said;"there is never a time it is right to disobey a constituted authority,the best thing to do is to differ in some particular issues but not to disobey them out rightly". And so it is with many of us in this young technological generation,we feel because the internet is there to teach and enlighten us;it is now foolhardy to listen and obey our authorities.
If we are ever going to succeed and go far in our chosen life career,we must comprehend and accept orders without questioning them especially when we know it is the right thing to do. Sometimes, it may go aganist our life principles and push us hard to challenge same,but when you realize you have a future to protect;"broski...no need to dey form James Bond for ur oga at the top". Many times I see youths wearing caps with the inscription "OBEY",I really want them to pay more attention to effecting the meaning of that word in reality. As a young man with many potentials,now is not the right time to make some serious independent decisions...you need to seek the advice of the authorities in your life.
Moses didn't enter the promised land because he didn't obey. Saul was stripped of his kingship because he failed to obey. And in our present day dispensation,many of us have lost sweet scintillating opportunities because we have refused to heed the call of obedience. Dearest friend,now is not the time to prove to your parents that you are a man. Provided you are still under their roof and they're taking care of you,you are still bound to consult them in planning your future. If you want to act like the real man,go out to streets,acquire a certificate or get into the market,sweat it out...hustle hustle hustle(God bless Duncan Mighty for that Hustler's anthem). At the end of the day,you will succeed; but you need to be diligent,patient,dedicated,prayerful and overall...you must be OBEDIENT.
Finally ladies and gentlemen,when we must have succeeded in getting to the promised land,you will pass me a glass of water, and thank God for the gift of grace for the race.
