Equality is the state of being equal. A situation whereby people, both men and women are being treated fairly and also have the same opportunity.

We're all created equal, no one has two heads, we all carry one head but what differentiate us is our country, family, religion, tribe etc. even though this shouldn't be a barrier but unfortunately it's.

Talking of our respective countries, a lot of people are suffering from racism in the country there are in presently although some countries are against it. You see people discriminating due to skin colour. Because some are black skinned, some white skinned might separate themselves from them, won't want to have anything to do with them, and even treat them badly.
This is not good enough as everyone needs to be treated the same, I don't think there's anyone that created himself or herself so we shouldn't be discriminating or hate people because of their skin color or race. We're all beautiful people and should respect one another.

Moreso, some families are very rich, notable and highly respected in the society, these sets of people get virtually all their things done easily, talk about school, job etc. Due to their connections, they get whatever they want easily without much stress. Whereas those that come from a family that's not well to do always finds it difficult to get their things done easily, What a world hmm...

A friend of mine went for an interview sometime ago, and when he was later allowed to go in for the interview, the interviewer asked him "from who"? he was short of words, dont even know what to say, the question "from who" means if he has a backing, connections or has a slot maybe he knows a notable personality in the society that can stand for him but since he had no one like that he was asked to come back later and those that had someone/connections were attended to.

Left to me, I'll say most people don't regard or practise equality. Most of us does things to favour some set of people that knows the rich or the people in power and leave the other ones stranded.

To make everyone equal or to correct the problem of inequality between humans, I think we need to observe the following:

  • Love: Love is the greatest commandment, if we can love our neighbors just like ourselves, we won't want to hurt them, cheat them, discriminate, look down on them, or ignore them when they need our help.
    I think we've virtually forget love, whereas there's so much power in it. All the evil things we see and hear today is basically because there's no love, most people are now very selfish, who's only after their own well being but do not bother at all about others, which is very bad. We need to show love to one another, care for one another and see ourselves as one, with these the world will become a better place.

  • Orientation and broadcasting: I think there's still much work to done in the area of creating awareness about equality, some people don't really understand the meaning and it's importance, so teaching people about it will really help, maybe on radio programs, TV programs even in our respective place of worship such as mosque and churches. When we constantly hear these things, I believe things will change for good.

  • Gender equality: A man and a woman should also have equal rights, they are both human beings so why deprive a woman her rights. Like a saying that goes thus "what a man can do, a woman can do better. When women are given the opportunity to do somethings they can actually do better than some men, so if a woman can be bold enough that she wants to take responsibility of serving a particular place they should be given the chance, who knows maybe she's the saviour of that region, state or country.
    Equality is key lets do well to put it into practice.

Thanks for stopping by.

I like your views on equality and the suggestions you recommended too, the only outstanding question is "is the world ready for this equality?".

Taking about needing connection to get employed, such things happen which eventually fills the working sector with unqualified personnels, which is really disheartening. People spend years studying and striving only to be overthrown by someone with "connection".

Hmm this is a big question, which I doubt the world is ready for but we need to ready for it.

This is nice and I think the world will be a step closer to achieving equality if we observe all that you've written.
I don't think it's everyone that loves themselves so it's better to say love your neighbor as Christ love you.

Hmm this is another angle, we should love our neighbors just like Christ loves us.

Truely truely boss...
No body has two head and for this fact alone we are supposed to know we are equal.
Love is the greatest and can bring solution to inequality just as you said and I agree...

The reason why we can never be equal is that there are things men can do that women can not do and there are things women can do that men can not do

So equality can never be a thing to be considered unless someone is just deceiving his or herself which is the only matter of time before they realize that human can never be equal no matter what
