Have Things Become This Hard? by Gas0line(op):
Waking up so early this morning, I freshened up and went out to see if I'd be lucky with any menial jobs. I couldn't bear to stay another day at home without feeding,maybe I'd be lucky today. I got to the first building site but I was told they have had enough workers. Calmly,I proceeded to find another one but it was still the same story. I trekked for what seemed like a lifetime until my legs started vibrating. I broke down in tears. Like why?
Why would a child of nobody be allowed to suffer in a rich country like ours? Why would those in power be this callous on the masses because of greed? You see, many of us are ready to work but the circumstances around us will not let us find even the most menial job. Where I was still standing looking hungry and dejected,a man came around and begged me for just #200 to buy something to eat. I smiled and told him I had nothing on me. He left. "Only if he knew my condition", I thought aloud. People are suffering seriously.

If someone can just help me out with the least 1k to feed I'll seriously appreciate. I just hope to see miracles when I wake up

We're talking about a manual labourer job here.
Thing is, Nigeria is much richer than you can imagine. It's easy to think there's no money here because of how bad the leaders have made the country

No one in his right senses would just hire anyone without a small background check to his site.
He would learn the hard way why that is not advisable.

haaa that’s where the problem comes from. Build your social media life joor. Even kids of 4 upwards are now been exposed to media spaces, most of them have their media pages via their parents by seeking their futures already. Build your network via valuable people. See don’t join them complaining . Till Jesus come, Things won’t be fine, it’s you and me that will make things fine for ourselves. Just build yourself.

let me advise you more in order for you to raise your head high. See try to learn skills online on YouTube. You can even be a content creator by discovering yourself in all manner of topics in life. Maybe this hard times you are battling with is for you to discover your self, talent and gifts God has for you. Complaining from today till tomorrow till next year won’t solve issues

thank God there’s shelter over you. That’s very paramount. Try and task yourself and involve yourself into trainings in one way or the other. There are some trainings that are free, just involve yourself in this trainings and you will be glad for embracing it.

with the billions and trillion of dollar them beta edu, malami, umar idris, hadi sirika, former minister of poverty alleviation, emefiele etc stole you think Nigeria is not a rich country?

While I will also encourage him to learn a skill as well, let’s be realistic for once in this country, hoboes he sustain himself while lerning that skill, how does he pay for the skills, someone that can’t even feed a day. The perio of learning any serious skill in this country is between 6 months to two years, so how does he survive in this time of learning?

Even money meant for Nigerian youths were looted thru Npower program
