The change I wished for

When I was in school, I did see people having so much interest in politics. And the fact is that they fight for these positions. I do not like the way people fought during and before the election. They go ahead and threaten each other, and some go ahead and kill each other. These are all I saw in the school, and I have lost interest in politics.

The aspect that I love in the game of politics is the way in which they use their brains. I love brain work. But when it comes to violence and killing people, I don't have the mentality to reach that level. I will just say that I'm not doing it again. Since I was in school, I didn't even have an interest.
Not until, after my n.c.e. certificate, I was doing my degree, and then they want to choose a sports director for the whole school. They chose someone else because he was in politics and I wasn't. The fact is that they all knew the post should be for me or my other friend because we train together. But none of us like politics.

I became the sports director for my department. But I wasn't satisfied. To cut a long story short, when it's time for the awards for sports directors, they make it by voting, since there are more people doing it. That was the time I realized I needed to fight for myself. I fought so hard and worked so hard to get the award for sports director because I knew I deserved it.

Since that day, I have developed an interest in politics. I just realized, if I keep running from it, when did I want to start doing what I needed to do? And, of course, someone needs to do it. This was the motive I had when I got to the place I was serving. I ran for the post of president, and I won with lots of votes. Then I knew what power was all about, and believe me, I want to do more of that.

So the question is, if I have the opportunity to contest any political position in my country, will I do it?

Yes, I will do it, and I want to do it because I believe I can do something better. I have an interest in the minister of sports. Because this is my field and I love it so much, believe me, I've seen how people treat coaches when it's time for sporting events. I saw one myself when I was serving. I have the privilege to serve in a big stadium, and since what I do is taekwondo, I joined the taekwondo team, and I do not like the way they handled their programs there. When it's time for them to give support to them, they will not. There was a competition they needed to attend last year, not just for them but for all sporting activities.

But the worst they could do is remove taekwondo from the program; they don't care about the effort of the coaches. The funniest thing was that they actually collected money for all these sporting activities. But because we have greedy people, they refused to release them to the coaches, and even if they wanted to release money, they would take almost everything because there was no one they could cry to or do anything about it.

I know I can't fix everything, but if I get to the top, I will do what I am supposed to do. I hate cheating a lot, and that is why I don't like working for people. Once you cheat me, I will leave. Given that I don't cheat you, why can't you give me what is meant for me? I know how much I hate cheating, so I will not want to cheat anyone. That is how I know I'm good for that position.

Politics is a game for all, it's doesn't seems right to run away from political position, you did great bro, for going for that post of president, in your service year and for winning, it wouldn't have make any sense, if someone else was given that position. You have a good interest for the people in sports, may your wish come true 🙏

I don't really like politics because of the things happening in it but if I should get an opportunity to contest for a position in my place, I'll do it. If we keep running from the game, who will bring the change we are crying for?

From your story, I believe you will make a good politician, please start from somewhere, you already have my vote, hehhe.

A man once said, if you truly wants to make an impact in a country, you can't shy away from politics but making a difference is not really the issue in politics, it is how it changes people into monsters.

You are living the life we are living, no doubt politics is a worst game, and we can't expect any good from the corrupts politician of our country.

In truth like you said politics is filled with corruption and violence and that's why many people run away from it.

I'm glad to know you competing for the role of sport director changes your perspective about politics and that it would and has made you want to pursue higher positions in that line to flush our corruption, cheating and the likes.
