IT’S OUR RIGHT TO KNOW EVERYTHING…

I grew up in a family where watching and listening to news 247 was never a hobby, we barely had enough time to do many other important tasks, not to talk more of spending the limited time we had enjoying the company of different news media, there has never been anything like 247 news in my family, Dad has always been the only member in the family who spends couple of hours watching news and other uninteresting updates about what goes on around the country and the world at large…

I and my siblings with my mum included have never been a fan of 247 news, especially my siblings and i, we have never sat down to either watch the news willingly, unless there is a good reason to watch it, and that is because the world itself is one bad news, not to talk more of the country’s state of economy…

I remember those days when we still had a radio touch light combo, this particular radio is an ancient device, back then my parents never for once missed their early morning news, their favorite channel back then was Bond fm and Faaji fm, these two stations were their favorite, until my mum slightly grew out of it, leaving my dad to it…

I have never for once sat down to tune in my radio station to listen to news, not to talk more of switching on the television and taking it down to news channels, that’s not something I’d do without good reasons…

The only time i was compelled to listen and watch news 247 was 4 years ago, that was when the world was first struck by a deadly virus called COVID-19, as a result of increased numbers of infected, i was forced to be in the company of news channels and stations for latest updates. The year 2020 made me a news constant, cases were rising and citizens were getting quarantined as result of the virus. Watching the news 247 for safety protocols and recent updates was a must, thanks to these i was in a safe zone…

Moving further into what i have for y’all today, even with the fact that I have never been a fan of 247 news, I still believe citizens of every country have the right to know about all the affairs that goes on in their country, irrespective of the possible damage it might cause to some people as a result, I believe we have the right to know everything that goes on in the country, at the end of the day the governments are on the sit of power to serve US…

We are the country, we are the nation, we make up the country and nation, without us there’s no government, so why hide the affairs of the country from we that makes up the country on a large scale, Let’s present the people with a choice, not revealing everything to us is like taking away our rights to make a choice…

We are capable of handling ourselves, our mental health is something we can take care of, let’s be equipped on everything that goes on in our country, as the world would say, working hand in hand with the people is the best form of growth a country can experience…

We need to know the state of our economy so as to plan ahead, don’t only tell us what we need to know, tell us everything and let us choose what we want from the information provided to us, the peace they are trying to ensure by not telling us everything will eventually turn into a disaster when everything goes wrong somewhere…

I believe everyone has the right to make different choices, taking away that right for the sake of something called unguarded peace is shameful, we need to know everything about our country, that way we will be able to plan ahead, and that too with many back up plans…

In summary, to experience growth and success in a country, cooperation and collaboration is necessary and essential, and for this to be achieved we need to know what we are dealing with, so as to know how to respond effectively to it and that won’t be possible without detailed information…

In conclusion, as a citizen of a country, we have the right to know everything that goes on in our country, present us with a choice and not deprive us of it, because that way we can work together as One…
