In the heart of different cities in Nigeria, lies certain aggregation of houses known as ‘Face-Me-I-Face-You’. The life over there is on a whole-noda-level, I tell you. So for those that had the ‘luxury’ of growing up in such quarters, these are some of the things they can understand perfectly: 1. The struggle to bathe every morning https://49n2wa1rmtzn2t7jio3ohnd8.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/TNC_FMIFU_001.jpg With just one bathroom for 50+ people, I don’t need to explain the struggle. 123 Likes 8 Shares |
