The whole point of living in a community is to reap the gains of synergy but unfortunately we have embraced individualism - every man for himself. If people pool resources together they can build a business that will provide financial security but unfortunately because of the every-man-for-himself disease troubling our minds, you can be rest assured that 98.23% of the people pooling resources together are looking for every opportunity to steal the funds and run away or misappropriate the resources. So bro/sis na to begin looking God face oh.

Who promised you any life after school? That person is the real scam. There is no certain commitment from anyone other than you to be productive and earn your living.
The real issue is about bad system where you are trapped with bad or no real options. No power or too expensive. Bad roads. Needless roads. Graft & bribery.
Extortion.

It all boils down to the economy.

When you try to educate people on the dangers of voting presidential candidates without credibility into power, they start looking at you like an alien.

A terrible economy means substandard products as companies struggle to stay afloat, leading to health risks and products which do not last long, further draining the pockets of the average man.

A terrible economy means costly products and items, such that one has to struggle to the limit to afford basic necessities of life.

Once upon a time, Nigerians used to litter dustbins with massive amounts of overnight or leftover food.
Today, you hardly see such.

Once upon a time, Nigerians used to regard beans, potatoes, iced fish, crayfish, ponmo etc as poor men's food.
Today, those items are stock exchange.

Those who ronued in 2023, those who sai babaed and Darling Daddyied in 2015 are not buying their foodstuff and petrol from special zones.

Yet, when you talk about usurping the current status quo to vote in a credible candidate with a sound understanding of governance and macroeconomics, they'll accuse you of tribal hate and political mischief.

The average voter on the street has been so impoverished as to be easily convinced to sell their ballot for any amount available.

And those who rig elections and declare the highest bidders as elected will always have avid supporters among the judiciary, legislature, activists, influencers... down to the resident e-rats on Nairaland -- as far as the food chain goes.

Many of us don't even have a background.
We started from ground zero.

May fate favor us.

Go to school get good grades everything will fall in place

When English is compulsory and Agriculture is optional. The country will end up speaking good English on empty stomach.

Every day, I see people rushing out by 5AM, struggling through traffic, working long hours, and still barely surviving by the end of the month.

Some are job hunting endlessly — submitting CVs like lottery tickets — yet no response, no opportunities.

Those who are “lucky” to get a job are being paid ₦40k to ₦70k monthly, with responsibilities that drain their health and peace of mind.

This wasn’t the plan.

We were told: “Go to school, get good grades, and everything will fall into place.” But now, many of us are waking up to the harsh reality that the system is broken — and no one is coming to fix it for us.

What hurts more is that a lot of people are silently struggling. Smiling at work. Dressed up every day. But deep down, they are tired, burnt out, and unsure of the next move.

The truth is: waiting on Nigeria alone is no longer a survival plan.

I’m not here to motivate or sell anything. I’m just saying — if you’ve been feeling stuck, confused, or underpaid… you’re not alone.

I had to start looking for alternative ways to earn something decent on the side. Quietly. No noise. Because hoping for change without taking action is a dangerous trap.

Anyone else feeling the same the way??

Unfortunately, the evidence doesn't support that claim.

You don't know anything about life. There are better ways to make a living than fraud. But if it's fraud you are good at, do it and wait for the consequences.

My brother, don't even fall for the trick that whatever system you think the world is running on is broken...

That's a trap.

The system is perfectly encoded to be what we're experiencing. It's perfect the way it is, that is, for those who it's perfect for....
