I remember I wrote governor seyi makinde of oyo state a letter in 2020 during covid lockdown, I went to his office but I wasn't allowed to see him and his Chief of staff so I dropped a letter waiting for a reply, but it never

Here in Nigeria, you will be prevented from seeing government officials you elected, their security guards and aides are just too overzealous and rude, they won't deliver your message unless you are a glitterati.
