Poverty and hunger are nothing new to third-world countries, especially to the people of Ethiopia, as almost half of the people live below the poverty line. Many of the people affected by this are children under the age of 15. Unfortunately, as these children work day and night on the streets to provide for their families, they are exposed to many bad things such as drugs.
With a limited perception of these issues, I thought this only happened in the streets of Addis, but later I came to know that I was wrong. Last year I was visiting relatives in Dire Dawa during one of our family gatherings. It was a good experience until I decided to take a stroll down the streets by myself. After returning from the walk, I managed to see some kids sitting together and smelling petroleum. As I inspected closely, I saw one of my younger relatives with them. Seeing my relative like this filled my head with many emotions, mainly anger and pity. Not knowing what to do, I entered the home and locked myself in one of the guestrooms. After I calmed down, I went outside to talk to him. When I asked him where he had been, he told me he was playing football. When I told him that I knew everything, he started crying at my feet and begging me not to tell his parents. I comforted him and asked him why he was doing this. He told me that poverty and hunger were the main reason and that since he wanted to help his parents financially, he started working on the street and then he got exposed to this. Feeling bad, I wanted to help him, but instead of giving him money, I went out with him and bought him books to read.
That night I really thought about what had happened and came to the conclusion that education is the best way to keep children, especially in third-world countries like Ethiopia, away from drugs and mainly poverty, and hunger.
After a while, I met the same kid again. He rushed to hug me and told me the things I did for him really made a difference. Not only did he accept my advice and stop the bad habits he had, but he also improved in school and got ranked second in his class. Seeing a change for the better in this kid inspired me and gave me hope that maybe if I could change the life of a young boy for the better through education, then maybe as a country we could keep our streets clean, our people fed, and reduce poverty by educating the young generation.
