Every insanity, infirmity and Lunacy must not be linked to ritual expedition, ritual money seeking exercise nor repercussion of wrong doing or evil deeds.
To do so, honestly to do so, is to conclude that all other psychiatric and mental problems are the outcomes of such ritual or evil conceptions. To conclude so, as many Nigerians are quick to do today, is to say that all persons with psychiatric or mental problems must be reaping the fruits of their past work.
Just as we have obsterists, gynaecologists, dentists, opthalmologist, cardiologists, orthopedists, dermatologists, oncologists, pathologists and others, so do we have specialists trained and skilled in the treatment of brain-related or mental health.
Our education must count, our knowledge must count, our schooling must count, our achievement academically must count in the things we do, and practise.
The current madness where young people such for riches and wealth at all cost and means, should not erode the fact that, the state of economy, the financial downfall, the failure on investment, the cyber-buggling and duping of hard-earned money in the country today, can also contribute to the sudden increase in the mental derailment of many today.
In search wealth, and riches, most people swallow and consume a lot of brain-damaging concoction as well as a number of substance that can lower proper brain functioning.
The youth today can eat, drink and smoke or perhaps swallow or rub on themselves nerve-permeating or -percolating substances that could leave the body under serious maladies and subjugation over a long time with attendant mentally connected misbehaviour.
It is time we stop making our culture that of evil people and time we tell the world our culture preaches love, care and understanding. If not, the world will stay miles away from our land, avoid our businesses and even keep our education at arm's length
