Regulating Osun State’s Nightlife: A Call to Action for Sustainable Growth
The rate at which social maladjustment is getting more audience than factory or industry in Nigeria is alarming, this is navigated straight down to my state, Osun, while I navigate it down to Osogbo the capital of the state.
Recently, there has been an increase in the number club house or lounge house where people are partying everyday in Osogbo and those clubs are in the same route or road network. This kind of investment is commendable but it does not add to the growth of our society as it is a place for social life. While it serves as a job opportunity for staff employed, it does not create innovation or any kind of resources to be exported to other states or an avenue to process finish and unfinish good or render services which are of productivity to the state or country.
These clubs are now engaging renovations as it is getting to the ember period where people will be partying every now and then. This is part of what is giving retarded individuals an avenues to continue to go astray, because they want to meet up with the standard of social maladjustment or peer group belonging.
With inflation in the price of goods and services, all these clubs have also hiked their goods yet, people are patronising despite the increments. Where do we say, they are getting the money from. In a state that is mostly engaged with civil servants and her productivity is low. Well, God is a miracle working one. It might be a work of being chosen.
My opinion is that the government needs to ensure that, the establishments of clubs are cautious and regulated accordingly. To ensure such that other sectors of production are being integrated into our society instead of establishing a clubhouse and probably filling the station at every corner of our residence.
My writing challenge continues, thanks for standing with me this far...
