Just Because Naija Work For You Just Not Mean It Work For Everyone by Ibrahim1985(op):
Some people are doing very well in Naija and have this general assumption that Naija is good for everyone. If petrol is N2000 or more, they will not feel it at all because it is still cheap for them. Naija is sweet for them because once you have money- Naija is paradise.
Late legendary Fela used to call such behaviour Ikoyi Blindness. The well to do not see anything wrong with Nigeria as long they are fine, have drivers to drive them around with security or police escort, housemaids to attend them ,gateman to open their gates, people to hail them and ask for money. They love when elder men or women even greet them first. Any criticism of a current Naija is being ridiculed. In fact they hate when people protest. They lack and fail to understand that many Nigerians are going through inflation or fail to have empathy. Na weitin Fela dey call Ikoyi Blindness

Why are there homeless people in USA?

Poor or rich, life is not fair to anyone, you just have to learn how to deal with it like others

Just because you are an unfortunate being and Naija doesn’t work for you doesn’t mean Naija doesn’t work for other fortunate beings.
Bro, some people don't understand that not all the time things will go your way. I was just sending someone message saying if someone told me I wont make one naira in the just concluded week, I would have told the person he was saying pure nonsense.

Today is Sunday to wrap up the week, not even one naira. Didn't I work through the week, didn't I spend money. Should I be complaining about a week with no payment all through when the last experience should be last year sorts.

Life is not fair, no matter you status

But what about you OP is Nigeria good for you or not. Let's share personal experience instead of what we feel about others?

Are you suffering Mr OP?
