Why does nothing works in Nigeria. Thank to Celestial bodies for my life. That was I left Nigeria for a greener pasture.

May God receive the soul of the deceased.

I lost my girlfriend last year to similar situation.

Chaiii

The Milk of Kindness has dried up in this country becos of dire austerity.

Nowadays, fathers will send their children on errands and have to follow the children there themselves.

No trust again. How much is N30,000 to allow the life of a human being to quench on a slab, no be goat o abi cow, Human BEING!

Shey na Bank dem go sue nii abi na Hospital?

Just musing aloud...
