On-Air-Personality, Frank Edoho, has disclosed that nowadays,
youths do not want to work but aim to drive flashy cars and own luxuries
items.
According to the ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire’ anchor,
some youths do not want to put in any effort in what they do and get off
the rail towards their destinations or tow the dubious part.
Speaking
on the strong point of the television game show, Frank explained that
the show’s strongest point is its underlying philosophy that ‘you have
to work for what you earn.’
“It looks like it’s easy to answer 15
questions and get N10million, but when you see the drama and what goes
into it, you will know ‘this is work’. So, N10million doesn’t come easy,
no wonder we’ve only had one jackpot winner.
“So, I think the
philosophy of the show is that we want to entertain, we want to educate
but most importantly, we want to pass on the hidden message that you
have to work, to earn the prize,” he added.
Frank also disclosed
that part of the reasons why the youths do not read these days is due
to the kind of lifestyles they indulge, which doesn’t encourage reading.
“Those days, we didn’t have a lot of technology, we didn’t have
social media and we didn’t have many distractions, so one of the ways
you could entertain yourself is to carry a novel by Jeffery Archer to
read. The ladies will pick Mills and Boon,” he said.
“Then
technology came and took over and we now have many distractions. We must
have missed it somewhere along the line, because even in the developed
societies, they still read and their culture enables it,” he observed.
