Lessons from "My Oga at the Top"

It came, it became a mighty heck of a phenomenon, causing people's head to roll with laughter. But we shouldn't just laugh everything off just yet. Yes there are videos, display pictures on BlackBerry phones and even branded 'My Oga at the Top' T shirts,but left to us we should introspect and learn the lessons from this while the phenomenon lasts. These are some of the lessons I can personally draw from it:
(1) Be at the top of your game. One day you just might be called to prove what you know.
(2) Nigeria's system of picking officers and employees is pitiable.
(3) Corruption is the name of the game and Loyalty is the cheat for moving from one stage to another.
(4) Even if you are in your forties, get familiar with the internet and get involved with the Computer age.
(5) If you don't know something, don't pretend to know it, making a fool of yourself.
(6) Preparation matters a lot. The examination of life has no timetable.
(7) The right people for the jobs are not picked, it's only ignorant but loyal sycophants that are honoured.
That's all.

  1. Well said, but I'm afraid this will not be the last time this kind of thing will happen, corruption, illiteracy, godfatherism, sycophancy etc are like the hiv nd aids maladies in nigeria's blood stream nd as at yet there's ŊO̶̷̩̥̊͡ cure.
