With Regards To Nigeria, Why Do We Only Get To Hear Of Crimes In Elite Areas by tensazangetsu20(m): 6:24pm On Jun 26, 2022
I almost died yesterday. I don't know if it was the angel of death that decided to visit me or something else. I woke up having an insatiable craving for ofe akwu cooked with stock fish and goat meat. I usually go to oyingbo to get stock fish. It's usually bigger and much cheaper than where I stay. When I was done with my morning chores, I started my journey.

Immediately I landed in oyingbo. Like immediately I came down from the bus I started hearing gunshots right there. Before I could say "jack robinson" there was pandemonium everywhere. Traders left their goods and ran away. Danfo buses packed on the other side of the road close to the BRT bus stop started driving away immediately. I started running like a wild beast. It was crazy, I was trying to stop a bus and go home but none was budging I had to tell the guy who stopped that I would give him 4000 naira. He should just get me to a safe distance.

On our way, the guy said what happened today happens everyday at oyingbo that at least 3 people are killed everyday and many more are robbed at night. This is so weird that this happens and I don't see it on any news outlet. If it happened on the island or something, one wouldn't rest at all.

This makes no sense, you could pretty much leave your house on the island come to the market at oyingbo to get something and get killed in the process. It seems that poor people's lives are less important than rich people in Nigeria. It's so funny that yaba is considered as the sillicon valley of Nigeria and oyingbo where all this happens is just a 3 min drive away and honestly a 10 to 15 min walk away.


Nna this country is just finished I pity anyone who has hope in Nigeria. I even saw policemen running away. There's a police station directly under the flyover that's being built and this happens regularly and absolutely nothing has happened. It's absolutely ridiculous.

This is why I believe the government should strongly regulate child bearing in Nigeria. There are people who by virtually of their circumstances financially and mentally should just not have any children. It costs so much to train a child to become a responsible member of the society. Failure to do so means that everyone else will suffer. I could have just died for nothing cause of longer throat.

Nigeria is a jungle and no where is really safe fr. If all the killing and kidnapping happening Nigeria is been reported you will be shocked at the number of people meeting untimely death and calamities in this country.

My dear, try and stay safe wherever you are... That is the most important thing...
The Rich and elite rules the world... That is why anything that affects them is headline...

Take US for example.. if there are shootings and maybe 5 people were killed, condolences will be pouring from all over the world.. even their president might go to those families to pay condolences..

But if 67 people were killed in Nigeria because of the same said shooting, the noise it will generate won't be much.. even the president will act like nothing happened... won't even go and pay condolences to the families because he is way too dignified to do that...

There are countries whose citizens lives matters a lot (rich or poor, it doesn't matter)... Unfortunately, Nigeria cannot be among that list... I guess it was because of population explosion in the country..

Please look for something, cook and eat my brother...The discrepancy between the rich and poor in Nigeria will be settled in Heaven smiley

Don't ever say never.. there are desperate kids so eager to out swim other sperms just to come out... Wicked people call them mistakes embarassed..

Some shows up due to lack of television at home, some came because there was no electricity, some came because of nation wide lockdown... some came because of broken condoms..

In your case, if it shows up by accident and your spouse isn't willing to remove because u were waiting for each and every one of them to have foreign identity, what will you do?

There are people like that. I don't really like having too many children around me esp those I don't know how they were raised. When I was in primary school, I said max two children. At this point, I still insist on two and have even thought of one child. There are people who are not interested in having children or just one or two kid(s). For people like and OP, vasectomy is on the table and will be implemented when needed.

That is why I am looking at those youths that are forming James Bond for Peter obi's sake.

If you are a youth and you love your life, better go back to your house after voting.

I remember how endsars ended, it was bloody. Nothing was at stake then, now so much is at stake.

Worse is, they kill off few youths to reduce Nigeria's population.
