READING STOPPED WHEN I FINISHED SCHOOLING

I'm afraid of what is going in our country Kenya ,or to put it simply ,in our african society .Writers do not have a place .THe peopel view them like just hawkers or something worse on the streetsor to put better .like the hooligans who cause chaos and riot at football matchesin the stadium. .Writers don't get the respects that they deserve .
The thing is ,very liitle peole go on reading anything after school and writers are having no place to go with their works .Ask them the reasoN and they will answer you that they had finished schooling long ago .Ask them again if they didn't want to add anything on to what they learned in school and they will answer you that reading is for kids.They left it to their kids when they left schooling,that is when they held their degrees in their hands ,they immidiately pushed their reading materials to their offspring.

It is really hard to get to make the african people to understand that their is always something in every article that you will come across and that if yopu wanted to add something in to your normal life ,then reading is always the best way to gain it.

I'm sorry that the psychology in them is still that of the old days where people went to school just to get a chance to get work in the offices .How do we make them to understand what is going on?May the academic organizations on the continent come to our help!!
