BE A GOOD REPRESENTATIVE.

WHEN YOU LEAVE THE SHORES OF NIGERIA, YOU ARE AN AMBASSADOR.

THE PRESSURE LIFE, FAMILY AND SOCIETY PLACES ON OUR YOUNG MEN IS WHAT MOVES THEM TO DO SUCH THINGS.

EVEN THE INTIMIDATION THEY RECEIVE FROM THOSE WHO TOOK SAME ROUTE AND SUCCEEDED IS APPALLING.

IN MY COUNTRY, MONEY RULES.

IN MY COUNTRY, MONEY IS A GOD.

IN MY COUNTRY, MONEY IS A SOURCE OF INFLUENCE.

NO BODY CARES ABOUT HONESTY, GOOD NAME AND MODESTY.

GOD HELP US ALL...
