Many activists in Nigeria go quiet after getting plump jobs in the corridors of power. A strategy of keeping their mouths shut while turning them against their former camps.

Many Nigerians fear to return to that country because of cases of lawless misfirings by those (poorly) remunerated to protect them. Another lady got shot by crazy policemen just under two years of returning home from living all her life abroad. Sad.

Life is neither white nor black, or gray either.

Nigeria is now the POVERTY CAPITAL of the entire cosmos! Haaa! The "founding fathers, and mothers" must turn in their graves to see what they left behind reduced to a joke of what it used to be. It is election time and the incumbent party gives out state sanctioned bribes in the name of loans to traders, worthless few nairas that's no better than toilet paper. But the people **** to get their hands on it - they have no choice! They've been fed so much poverty than a meal of something akin to proper diet is welcomed with full zest! SAD.

Sometimes silence is the only way to reply noisemakers.

Once is a while we all need that big hand.

It is elusive, very much, a life without sorrows. PITY.

COVID-19 exposes the world's underbelly. Many countries have become vulnerable as tourism takes a big hit.

Young and talented Nigerians are sadly impoverished by the simple reason of being Nigerians.

It's somewhat painful to rise above the constant jamming of high and low frequency characters stopping us from seeing the bigger picture...clearly.

Every bad thing is traceable to greed.

The Nigeria people are too afraid to demand for better existence from their government. Choosing, always, to take the easy road of 'siddon look' in matters that require spontaneous revolution. SHAME.

In Nigeria, the 'ember months have a string significance. It's when some people begin to hurry their hustle in preparation for the last month of the year when they travel to the countryside to show off their acquisitions.
For others, they go off on fervent prayers to forestall the terrible things that come with the last four months of the year. INTENSE.

The penchant of the president of Nigeria to EXPRESS SHOCK at every avoidable calamity bedeviling the country has raised concerns across the world.

The ceaseless refrain has angered the populace and diaspora, leading to questions bordering around how the country got to this state of hopelessness in the face of internal and external organised terrorism, banditry, criminal defilement of minors, the aged and senseless ******-**** of young women in recent time.

The Education sector of the Nigeria state is in danger of advancing mediocrity as they gave set the lowest standards for the workforce of the future.

The unified exams that select prospects into tertiary schools that grades students in four subjects each one hundred marks, now require just twenty-five per cent as pass make for those wishing to get into the college's of education! While others require a mere forty and thirty per cent to gain entry into university and polytechnics respectively.

Anyone with a modicum of commonsense will know that this is a deliberate act to further plunge Nigeria into abysmal economic situations among comity of nations that set higher standards for their future workforce.

At this rate it will be a wonder if there will be a viable country in the next century and if there were, then will be a puppet in the hands of greater powers.

A young lady went missing in one of the suburbs of Lagos State, Nigeria. And for eleven days family and friends went by all out. Sadly, her remains were found in a filthy canal, after she was washed away in a flood when attempting to cross a street on a commercial motorcycle.
All hope came to nought as news of her untimely demise filtered in.
Another one on your hands, Nigeria! May her spirit never give all of you that have made motorcycle a major means of transportation in Nigeria and made our roads deathtraps.
