My experience isn't palatable at all, truly truly, "HUNGER" Bad grin.
So, in my case, it happened years back, I was in primary 1, and I had a baby brother who was barely 2 years old. I returned home from school on that fateful day, the sun was burning hot and I was super hungry, because my classmates for school then(Kalac Nursery & Primary School, Olodi -Apapa) Sabi beg. grin
Normal before we reach house food don suppose ready, but on that fateful day Dem Neva even start to cook, na so I enter my mama room go check if I fit see something chop. While ransacking her cabinet, my roaming eyes caught something that looked like beans on the floor, based on say na Beans we chop that morning go school I reason say e fit be part of the beans wey fall off from person plate, na so I rush pick am put for mouth begin chop.
Brethren!!! Lo & Behold, it wasn't beans, na SHIT as in feaces way my baby bro pass out from his Kaka, he folo eat the beans and e come out for his shit.
That incident has remained evergreen, i no forget am.

It was my pre-degree days at the university, 2 weeks to the final exam, I and my friend were broke to the extent that we decide to permanently stay in the sch premises because we will need to be trekking to and fro from our hostel that is over 15km into the town. We then survive on cashew and mango fruit in the campus, moving from a tree to another like monkeys. That is when we discover that if you want cashew fruits to stay longer in your stomach, just pluck the fruit, squeeze our the juice and eat only the shaft. Poverty is deadly but also is wealth.

I don't think I've been badly hungry before unless I refused to eat, at home we had all foods, more than enough. and money wasn't a problem either.

I guess that was why you decided to kill broke people.

From KDa to futa, bro you are a legend
Offpoint1:
Ate eba with palm oil and salt...
Ate fufu with leftover indomie water
Ate raw rice with my neigbour's stew aroma
Trek from Oda Town in Akure to Futa to borrow N500.
Trek from Badadgry to Ajah for 30k job's interview...
If suffering was person, then it's Offpoint.

Life's brutal and those from less privilege homes take the worse share of it.

You don't know what the fxxck life is until you left your parents at teenage age, we ain't there yet but we will fight poverty with the last drop of our blood.
For those who got parental/relatives support and are still eating from their parents... You don't know y'all are lucky bastxxds

I had to trek a very long distance just to save the last 150 I had with me for feeding for the rest of that day, when I got home I didn't want to drink garri because I've been drinking all the while but I had no choice cause my money couldn't afford anything tangible. Had to buy indomie #100 and garri #50, soaked the garri down while I was cooking the indomie so the garri can rise well. When the indomie was Ok i mix the garri with the indomie and ate so that it will at least hold me a little.. Many things o, even presently am doing part time labourer work after school hours just make them give me food chop, no payment.

Soaked garri, so it could be enough for my stomach.
Attended all the church weddings being announced that were closed by. You need to see how my eyes would be shining and extremely focused on those servers...if they missed my table like this, my heart go dey beat fast.
Used 150 Naira to make soup( Ewedu-50, Smoked fish 50, Palm oil -30, Maggi -20) as at 2010. But this Ewedu soup mixed with those ingredients can be so delicious ehn! Sometimes we’d add ponmo lol

This life is truly a stage, may we never experience poverty again in Jesus powerful name, Amennnnn!!!!

I used to get left overs from the cultural events we had in the city a Nigerian lady just always called me to help out when I was getting broke like an angel sha but in college I started selling my books after semesters for extra cash to pay my bills etc now if I’m not using the phone or gadget I either sell or Dash someone who really needs it … I once pawned my entire studio and used the money $150 to get phone got insurance on it and sure enough when it spoiled they sent me a brand new one the The latest palm treo… I once sold knives because it was 20 dollars to book appointment Once when my battery died I had to eat 1 slice of bread and one small Nescafé coffee for breakfast I even borrowed from people I had paid 60k the night before shed tears walahi because people do it on the daily with a smile so if I can help I can help not for manipulation but to change somebody story
