Contribute... Not Compete by Farastein(m): 11:28pm On Jun 18, 2020
Ours is a society where people are raised to compete instead of contribute. We see it in our homes, schools, churches and everywhere else. We even invented the cruel name "I beta pass my neighbor" for the smallest generating sets available. This situation reflects the average Nigerian mindset. Everything is a competition to us, and we're stuck in the most toxic rat race

For us to carry first, we gats ensure say some people carry last. If we cannot rub something in someone else's face, it doesn't just feel good enough for us. We've become a society of clout-chasers who would do anything to win at this unhealthy competition we've entirely made up in our minds. The churches wey suppose be safe havens; where everybody suppose dey equal in supposed eyes of God have become notorious avenues to propagate this competition.

The result: Now, we have the most corrupt and crime-filled of societies where people generally want to hoard wealth, knowledge and every other goodies in life for themselves alone. We are filled with depressed, frustrated folks who have been made to ingest the idea that they're "losing" in the rat race.

The solution: ...?
