The strange thing is that the gruelling Nigerian situation actually affects most of the working population (with the exception being politicians, wealthy business men, entrenched oil and gas people and crooks) the pain is being felt by those you would assume are impervious to the rigors of a collapsed economy.

It must be much more debilitating for Nigerian youth.

A terrible shame, the direct result of years of greed, theft and wanton ineptitude.

I tell you Chief. The situation is sickening. I had to choose between going to charge last night and standing the risk of getting shot.

Young boys killing themselves in my area as we speak, cultism on a high and it’s not just because they chose to but because there was no fundamental plan laid down by the government in the first place.

How do you plan a party when you don’t know how many people are coming?

How do you plan for a nation when we don’t have a very calculated guess of how many citizens the country even has?
