Day Eleven: To Be A Nigerian Is Harder Than The Country Itself.

 


You think you’ve escaped this myth by leaving the country. Well done, don’t forget to tell us your story of how it started and how it ended if it has. Cause we need to stop all these rubbish to end the stereotypes and struggles. Nigerians this Nigerians that, a lot of stories on bad experience with being a Nigerian as a foreigner but that’s not even the main issue here. 

If we can go to another country and struggle why are we also struggling in our country with stuffs that’s supposed to be made easy as a citizen. Like WTF will your fellow Nigerian stress you to the point of frustration, for something less of a problem. And the worse part of this, is the normalization of this madness which most times happens in government departments and offices.

For example, applying for anything under government parastatals. They go turn turn you like no tomorrow. Ordinary result collection for school or even applying for a job in any government facility. The way they go whine you ehh for little things just to collect extra cash is appalling. Everything na bribe or settlement for them misusing the small authority wey them get.

Imagine applying for passport normally no be visa oo by following due processes and know if the thing no go pass at least two months or more without connection. Like it’s that bad that everyone knows it Dey take time if you no grease palms. You know, fast lane or remain where you’re till it reach your turn has become the order of the day. Destroying poor people’s destinies because your own greed.

Well, what can I say when it has become a norm right? But we need to drop this shit cause it’s now too much. At least let’s tone it down and stop going over board with this express thing. If we wan go express we know the road to follow whether with Benz or legedisbenz, you get. 

Enough with the hardship, we don try shaa. E no Dey easy to be a Nigerian and also live in Nigeria, ok. You get the point now baa?




Bye ✌️
