So I was watching Sunrise the other day and a guest came on. During his interview he made a comment which I found hilarious, and forms the basis for this thread. He said, in defining democracy, 'democracy is for the rich by the rich to make laws for the poor people to suffer'. It got me thinking about Nigerianizing definitions, idioms, proverbs etc, and how far we can go. For instance, the phrase 'oga at top' now means something different in everyday Nigerian language lol. If the moderators have no problem then to make it more interesting we can use people's names, names like Farouk Lawan or Oduah should make great proverbs if you catch my drift...I've already said mine above but I'll repeat it below. Please fellow nairalanders lets make this fun, imaginative and interesting...

Democracy (the Nigerian version)-

'democracy is for the rich by the rich to make laws for the poor people to suffer'
