Something is not very clear here.
So difficult to understand why someone will live healthily in a hell called nigeria only to go and run mad in a "holy land".

By federal mandate, all prospecting pilgrims should be subjected to a meticulous psychiatric evaluation and gruelling physical endurance test BEFORE they even depart from Nigeria.  This measure would greatly reduce the incidence of death by heat-stroke and other embarrassing maladies of this nature.

Are you sure they didn't package them for export purposely?. Operation clean up Nigerian streets usually start from ndi ara and destitutes.
