ONCERNED YOUTHS for the LESS PRIVILEGED INTERNATIONAL (CYLPI) is a global organisation established in Nigeria by concerned Youths. The record of its origin, growth, development, activities, evolving goals and accomplishments is more than an interesting chronicle of a colourful moments filled with a touch of kindness to the less-privileged ones.

All these areas constitute a priceless part of the global experience in the 21st century. This great organisation was founded by Michael Mbuko on the 14th of February 2013 alongside Emenike F. Odinaka, while Ogeflexi Boniface, Angel Oluwatosin and Mirable Chynwa contributed the added dimension of a global organisation erecting centers in West Africa, North America, and soon enough in Asia. As CYLPI keep growing and prospering their programs multiplied too. The real story of the organisation is in the internal dynamics, creative conceptualisation of activities, and the intellectual expansion of individual members. And here, the theme is love, friendship and mutual support for the less privileged, the lovely, the lonely, the seekers and the doers. In CYLPI we recognise that the air is free but not cheap, our services to humanity is also not cheap but without price tag.

After delivering quality services without price tag to the #Less-#Privileged, we do shake hands and nod our heads in agreement that we really shake the world into place.CYLPI is fast growing into a worldclass organization. We are happy that our organization had went through the heavy sun of the west Africa, the winters of America and the hurricane of Asia to come out real strong to still help the Less-Privileged.

WHAT A COUNTRY

There is a country docked away in the western African region where it takes nothing to invent a "Time Machine" that back dates time, in this country this machine does wonders on birth certificates. With this machine an eighty year old is sixty planning to retire next five years when she\he is not even sure if they would survive the next six months. There, they die in office but before they die, they are sure to have a replacement at any cost. In this country, government created corruption which the civil service is working so hard to sustain. the eighty year old woman is collecting her great grand daughter's salary since she's one. Our Public university lecturers go on strike when there salary is jeopardized but fail to strike when the student's welfare, equipments, instruments and lecture material are not in good working condition. we suffer to learn and graduate half baked. in this country Civil servants go on strike when their request are not met, but fail to fight for the pensioners, when their pension are delayed or even to lobby the government to create more employment for the unemployed youths. This country is where "no job orientation" is being sounded on NYSC camp ground by men old enough to be my grand father who fail to retire. They call the millions my parents spent and the four, five, six year I spend till my graduation a waste. So am encouraged to learn and start trade as a correct Igbo man with no capital. Maybe thats why crime and tourism sky rocketed high! Nigeria is just fine when you've designed an ATM on public fund, you simply call for rallies and protest when it stopped paying with the guise of fighting for the unemployed youths and ill favored ethnic group. Due to poverty the unemployed youth do respond quick to manipulation only to be used as tools. As long as Abia State remains in family hands, it is on safe hands. why complain of lack of growth and development when you ceded it to them for "keke-napep", #200 and Mitsibushi bus on the election day, after all a leader is the direct product of the people............ I hear some people say its only those of us who didn't get our own share complain the most. What a country. Our government impose austerity measures on us, now we are paying for an ineffective and inefficient personnel's inability to forecast, plan and strategize. This is a country where most of our Pastors and men of god are among the richest in the world. Our corrupt civil servants pay huge tithe to sustain blessings and the poor masses are encouraged to "sow seeds of faith" for miracle favor. we are often told not to complain but pretend and say "it is well." no wonder Karl Max categorically stated that "Religion is the opium of the masses" we are surviving, since there is no safe heaven to run to, am still proud of this country though, and daring for #change..... starting with myself.
