You’re now done with school and service, and you’re expecting to get that ideal job in a matter of few weeks, right?
From few weeks, it went on to few months and it’s now getting to few years

It's that uncle of yours who always claims to know the governor's brother's sister uncle's cousin; that one that lives life large, like this

You send your CV early the following morning, before he can change his mind

Three days to the interview and you realize many of your friends are studying for it like post-UTME; your heart begins to fail you

Not only that, virtually everybody has a relation that knows the governor's wife's aunt's cousin's sister,

Or the deputy governor's mother-in-law's uncle 's brother's daughter

While you're still wondering what the congrats is for, you get a phone call from one of your friends that the list of successful applicants is out and that you made it

You jump up with excitement and rush down to the Secretariat to see things for yourself

As you go home that day, one thing still confuses you:

Did you get the job on merit?

Or was it thanks to your uncle who knows the Senate President's personal assistant's mother's brother

...Oops, I mean your uncle who knows the governor's brother's sister uncle's cousin
