If Nigeria Continues Like This, I May Have To Start Stealing by Nobody: 6:18pm On Dec 21, 2015
I am not really a politician or an economist, and I have been legit, 4 years without a job. But everybody has a break point.

I am neither APC or PDP, and I know the country is in a mess, but my livelihood is threatened at the moment.

With no job in sight, I ventured into mini importation, now what happens from January 1st? Aliexpress escrow services will be useless to us in Nigeria, how can I buy goods with western union when it can be a scam? The escrow service was really helping us. Cash transactions were threats.

How about the cashless policy?

Anyways, my people, I don't know what to do now, because the little things I buy and sell, if I can't do such transactions again, this will be the death of my little business. People say graduates should create jobs, NEPA frustrated my first business, CBN is frustrating this one now.

It is saddening because I am 30 this year, with nothing to show for it... I think I'm at the point where I will be willing to do anything.

Someone should please beg CBN for us. I am just a man who no one listens to.

Help.

My life feels wasted and each time I feel like a failure. My self esteem is so low right now, and as an introvert with no one to talk to, I sometimes think of ending my pain, sometimes I just envy the dead.

All my mates are married, I don't have nothing.

I am very smart, everything just keeps working against me. The last interview I passed, my age disqualified me.

Maybe I should die trying to give my life a direction.

Please do not commit any crime. We are in a draconian regime. The security forces have zero respect for rule of law.

Anyways, to your question. Try to find any business around you like agribusiness that is into exportation and see if you can secure employment in the industry. Business is booming for them.

No its not.
But we only pay with our naira cards.
Escrow won't cover western union.

Besides sometimes I buy things as low as $10 from each seller, how do I start sending that in ten places to ten customers via western union?

Nigeria specialises in killing destinies. With the coming of APC the future looks scary. It will get far worse than been officially touted.

Let's hope they remove subsidy with its attendant chain reaction....Hopefully, it triggers the much needed long over due revolution.

During much of Nigeria's recent past, stealing has only been condoned when it is executed on an industrial scale where the pepetrator gathers enough loot to share generously among ALL those whose silence is available for sale, and to a lesser extent, those who live near the embezzler's hometown residence.

Conversely, woe betide any hungry man in Nigeria who steals a measly handfull of fish in the market, or who picks a pocket to score some loose change, for that unfortunate petty criminal WILL be set upon by a baying mob, beaten to death, and then set alight with a petrol-soaked car tire fitted around their neck. That girsly demise is the Nigerian street penalty for petty crime, which is, by definition, selfish, in the sense that no "dividends" are available to be shared with onlookers.

The above paragraphs are there to remind the OP that he should only consider a criminal career IF he can steal BIG enough to SHARE with other hungry people too scared to break the law.

If there is no opportnity to engage in MAJOR heists, then small-scale, subsistence thievery must NEVER be considered as an alternative, since the penalty for that level of crime is death by lynch mob, in Nigeria and much of Africa even today as the good year 2015 bows out.
