The Need for Self-Reliance and Community-Building in Moro Local Government By Hanafi Abdulgafar Dare (Asejere)

 

As I reflect on the state of Moro Local Government in Kwara State, Nigeria, I am convinced that the time has come for its residents to take charge of their destiny. The community is rich in resources and potential, but waiting for external intervention alone will not bring about the desired change.

The emergence of the Moro Descendants Development Union (MDDU) is a beacon of hope, but its success depends on effective management and a focus on self-reliance and community-building. The old proverb “heaven helps those who help themselves” rings true – relying solely on external forces will rarely lead to success.

Moro is blessed with fertile land, mineral deposits, and vast opportunities for agricultural activities and construction. However, tapping into these resources requires collective effort and empowerment. The MDDU should provide support and resources to local farmers and entrepreneurs, organize training programs, and collaborate with other stakeholders to secure funding and investment opportunities.

Beyond economic development, the MDDU should prioritize social and infrastructural improvements, advocating for quality education, healthcare facilities, and clean water systems. Lasting change can only occur through the collective efforts of the locals, harnessing their own resources and actively participating in the development process.

Through self-reliance and community-building, Moro can transform into a thriving community. The MDDU should serve as a guiding force, encouraging ownership and investment in education, infrastructure, and resource utilization. It is time for the people of Moro to take charge and build the community they have always dreamed of.
