After a thorough reading of the article, I cannot agree less that the author made an awesome research and articulated the pieces of his research so well to birth that beautiful piece. From the article,Adebayo Faruq generally recognized the roles of Non profit organizations which he used Non governmental organization for. Some of the key roles he highlighted is poverty alleviation, environmental protection, educational support and others. After viewing from the general perspective,he went further to narrow it down to Nigeria and the roles of Non governmental organization in the society and nation. He highlighted how tremendously the services of Non profit organizations has immensely contributed to the economic development of the country and how they fill the various lacuna left by the government. According to him,the need for the services of NPOs arose in Nigeria after the civil war. Despite viewing NPOs from a national perspective,he further went down to viewing it from a lense of particularity and that's the GOLDEN GENERATION COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CLUB of Nigeria which according to him was registered with the CAC in 2020 and has operates in Oyo. The club has no government affiliation and is non profit in nature. The main objective of this club is to address the social issue of the young ones "building careers without ambition". The rate of touting and thuggery in Nigeria is fast increasing. Although the governors of different States like in Anambra State are contributing their bits to stall this increase but the club has taken it up as it's duty to sensitive young people against thuggery and touting. It is driven by its "Catch them young" belief as they make moves towards ensuring that the younger generation does not see the "street school" with its menacing and nefarious settings as a proper institution to Learn and develop their career.
It was indeed a nice read and I commend the author's efforts towards pulling this great work up.
