 Literature / Babariga! by RCINC: 4:38pm On Jan 10, 2017 |
Babariga. He will dance recklessly and shake his buttocks for the crowd. Babariga, he will flaunt it like he owns it, but of course he owns it, this heavy regalia in which he shines. Babariga, a failure you are, a potbellied shame. Oh Babariga you have failed your people yet hopelessly they dance with you. Babariga, a liar and a thief, a miscreant, a political scam! Babariga, a calabash of empty promises, a modern slave trade master, an exploiter of the youth. Babariga you are the cross we carry that our fathers have also carried. Babariga, you are desolation! the sudden death that has crept upon our systems. Babariga with your hysterical laughter and your flamboyant offsprings. Oh Babariga! That a people should suffer like this. Babariga, are our strives not enough? What more should be done? Babariga Ah! Leave us alone with your dance attires and your honey laced words. Babariga leave us alone in our penury stricken shame created by no one but us, Babariga leave us alone for your mockery deepens our shame. Babariga. Shame on you as woe betides you. Babariga. One day you will be gone swept beneath a rock. Babriga, we will take back our lands and make it our own. Oh that our youths will die no more as a tool in your hand Babariga. Babariga, that our children may inherit the beauty of their land. Babariga, with all your flamboyance your end is near. Babariga, entice your audience once more with swiftly shaken buttocks. Babariga! Babariga! https://theadoraweb./ |
| Religion / Find Yourself Your God by RCINC: 2:23pm On Jan 08, 2017 |
I have this conversation with a lot of people so I might as well bare my mind. My mum came back the other day, she had a good joke up her sleeves, it was told by a preacher on transit. A chosen preacher, she claimed that all who wore earrings were deaf to god and those who had weaves and makeup were destined for hell. So a new joke was birth in our house, if we called you and you didn't respond we would ask if you had earrings on. Not too long ago, I saw my younger brother reading a book by MINE teenage ministry, the title is - An ideal student, my brother is ten and a voracious reader, however I buy most of his book for my fear that he might be misled if I don't. I scrutinized the book he was reading and immediately seized it. The book said thing like; don't hug a boy, shake hands always, tuck in your shirts. Don't wear trousers and tight clothes. I'm not ready to have a ten year old go through such, never. So I said simply to him that the book was inadequate. Religion is a burden, it seems to get gruesome with each passing day, these are just my immediate experience but I have seen worse on the internet. I have seen grown humans eat grass and drink gasoline I have seen a woman whose "lack of faith" killed her after she was burdened with a heavy speaker by a pastor. I have seen pregnant women getting kicked in the stomach Men sowing their monies and destinies to fellow men. Sheer display of idiocy and madness and all I ask is why? It's true that a lot of people need something to guide them but it's also true that religion is ruled by fear. Men and women are subjugated with religion The fear of a god, a hell that may never exist, the fear of the curse of a fellow man The fear of poverty so you give and give your all The fear of condemnation so you stay in an awful marriage The fear of demons so you overlook the beauty of life The fear of everything a book and men tell you to fear that you miss god in his purest form and serve the idols of a mans mind. So you cringe at the thought of a lake of fire and the eternity that will behold you, you go through life living out hell and then someday you die with restrictions with no adventure with no true moment of laughter, just the vague ones you gave to god to get his blessing just the ones coated with grieve you throw at your pastor on his pedestal Nothingness and emptiness And my question remains why? It's 2017, if at all you will not resolve to quit your service to gods of men at least resolve to live to love. To laugh genuinely To throw a little caution to the wind and catch it in due time Throw yourself a party Run away, fly Find your own god, grow Take out time to just breathe. Forget the rules and restrictions I'm sure there's a god somewhere in your soul Find him. xx |

| Literature / Suicide's Seduction by RCINC: 10:22am On Jan 08, 2017 |
I have never been to a funeral before, but I have seen people lose the ones they love They cry They wail They weep They mourn Then some of them stay numb And some others die as well. They gradually fade away, losing their life to the dead to be dead in a few years. This is the worst kind of death. To throw yourself in a casket and give up while the sun still shines on you. I have never been to a funeral but I know for certain many dead men. They walk They talk They eat They sometimes laugh They get lost in thought They are dead, their casket a burden on their shoulders which they pull along with each step. They have given up, you just don't know it, you are their yardstick for their unachievable life of success. Yes you. When you sit with them and when you pour them a drink do you not see death in their eyes? Do you not hear the voices of your ancestors speak back? When your lace your speech with flamboyance and color them with your laughter do you not hear a laughter too familiar, unfamiliar, distant, yearning begging to be something, someone in a world that is everything; demanding, judgmental, antagonistic, hateful, sad, depressing, ever failing. Suicide lays naked at your door Her grave neatly dug Her laughter so familiar it's a curse Yet Your love so strong it's her loss Take a second look at the ones you love. Beautiful week guys. https://theadoraweb./2017/01/08/suicides-seduction/ |

| Literature / Our Sad Reality by RCINC: 2:42pm On Jan 06, 2017 |
Father was my father, not my uncle or my stepfather, this to me was unbelievable. He was the one who put a seed in my mother and after nine months of endured pains and a caesarian, he was the one who held me fully blooded at a point and fully clothed at another with his finger within. My mother had told aunty Keyu one damp evening in our tiny pale kitchen where we prepared a cheap pot of bitter leaf soup that I was a result of a mistake, a grave one she emphasized. She bit her lower lips in between her speech as if to fight the water that welled up in her eyes. She spoke in igbo to aunty Keyu who wasn't igbo but understood and spoke fluently too. I didn't speak igbo fluently and I also had a hard time understanding as it took me not less than seven minutes to filter through her speech and mentally give false meanings to words that failed my understanding. "He is a wicked man" she said in Igbo and emphasized for the last time as aunty Keyu tasted the soup. That night was the last I saw of aunty Keyu, I had woken to loud sounds of chaos from the other end of the curtain aunty Keyu said words that sounded dreadful in her language, a glassware was shattered and the pound banging of our frail wooden door followed. Aunty Keyu was gone, at 3am, never to return. It was only later that I realized that truly my father was a wicked man 'onye aru ala.' I was ten years old when reality slapped me hard on the cheek, a primary three student of a thatched school in the slums. My school looked nothing like a school and neither did our house. Our house was a tiny cluster. A cubicle. What the majority of lagosians called "one room," only in our case, our room was less than small. The walls almost caved in, it was never day in those four wall. The room housed everything we owned which was not much; a battered mattress, a rolled up mat, a stool, a kerosene lamp, and a wall clock that read 4 'O' clock regardless of time you checked it. We had a small hallway which we called our kitchen, it housed our utensils by day and me by night. My father had put up a curtain to separate both spaces, we rolled up the curtain by day and fell it by night and only rolled it back up in the morning. My father had warned that under no circumstance was I allowed out of the passage by night, "Except your bladder is bursting and the house is on fire" he scolded, the night he put it up. My father was a short faced man, he was terribly short but short faced too, a transporter, a drunk, and 'a disgrace to god and man' as my mother once said to aunty Keyu before she disappeared. Indeed my father was a drunk, a chronic one, who drank himself to stupor on most days and unconsciousness on others. So when he had walk into the passage leering at me that night, one may have easily accused the empty bottles he indulged earlier had he not returned again. The morning after father had walked into the passage, I was broken. A shadow of myself, memories of a sudden past hunted my mind; the struggles, the loud screams, the heavy thud as mother landed to the found, then nothingness as I shut my eyes to my reality. "It's much easier when you give in" he said as he unraveled me in the ugliest way. I wouldn't go to school that morning, not that father had cared. He tightened his belt at dawn and left with his behind, he left me behind in my own shame as I clawed and pounded my chest, as my prayed that my breath will fail me as I hoped to disappear like aunty Keyu never to return. My mother had looked away all day, crying with the passing seconds, she did not roast her corn that night, she never roasted corns again. The abominable soon became normal, a drunken or not so drunken man yanking my dignity with each passing night. Mother endowed with the shame her inability to save me gifted her. I was a ghost now, an 11-year-old ghost. The day I threw up, my father beat my afterlife to death, he jumped on my stomach as he echoed "Amosu" "you are a witch." The next day, my remains were dragged before a scruffy pale looking man who at my fathers instruction inserted a slim rusty metal rod into me and "pulled out the useless thing" as he was instructed. Later that night mother was disfigured, she was the witch who wanted father's downfall. The house grew it's silence. I was out of school, father threw a pack of contraceptive at me. He will come for many more nights, he will slap my resistance to obedience, he will cause me to itch for a week, then he will come no longer. We were robbed. A gang of four men opened our door at night, mother and father were asked to lie flat on their faces, father was shot and the men disappeared. The only thing stolen from us was him. Aunty Keyu stopped by with a basket of condolence, and over a pot of bitter leaf soup she will say "onye aru ala" and mother will nod in agreement, almost too quickly, almost reluctantly. PS: please leave your thoughts, I will be working on a collection of stories bordering around social justice this year, this is one of them. 1 Like |

It's 2017 in a few day, the most of you have taken time out to jot down resolutions, this is after all an every year thing. So you write these lofty goals and ideas on papers and tabs and read them with gleaming eyes. This is the sign that you are set for 2017. Permit me to ask a simple question? HOW? You want to buy a bank right? How? Sell a million records? HOW? This is a defeatist approach, like it or not, in a couple of months you will be done with 2017, ticking dates on your calendar waiting for a bad year to run out so you could what? Start again with some magnificent lofty resolutions and the cycle is endless. So before the year runs out, let's try something different. Let's get our vision straight. So you want to buy a bank and be a real estate guru right? Get a pen, and afterwards a paper. This is no resolution. Write it. Write all the beautiful things you want to do on that paper, write it and don't quit for a minute. When you are done take a walk, a break, a second to think about the beautiful things written, see the picture clearly, now ask yourself how? It's not okay to want if you don't know how to get it. The how is what determines your 2017. You need to know how and you need to know it in more than just one way. You have a few days to 2017, the how is not a day's job, this thing has made grown men cry and run mad as a result of frustration. The how makes you understand how realistic a vision is. It's time to think about the how, and think about it deeply too. I will be thinking about my how today and plotting a 'how plan' tomorrow, hopefully, you can do same and we can move to other stages from there. God speed. Don't stop dreaming, however, start doing. https://theadoraweb./2016/12/27/achieving-in-2017-vision-alignment-strategy/ |

| Religion / 'sinday' And Oyedepo's Ordained Fees. by RCINC: 4:08pm On Nov 06, 2016 |
Since we are giving out useless and dishonorable information in the name of God, I shall now proceed. But first, I must warn that my God will breathe down fire and brimstone on anyone who decides to spit unjustified biblical opinions at me. Let me begin with the Lord chosen dancers. Yesterday I watched a video of some Lord chosen members displaying frantic dance steps on a water clogged road. Although the video was eight minutes long and I barely had the patience, I however stuck to the end to see a grown man roll enthusiastically on a muddy road straight into a puddle of black water, a thunderous cheer by his religious siblings following suit and an even increased manic dance step by him celebrating his stupidity. I didn't quite get what the display was about but I was certain it was an outreach and whether they were trying to win the soul of pigs or humans should be left to God to judge. Fast forward a few minutes later, The bishop says that his school fees a whopping 799,500 is ordained by God but he doesn't stop there he goes on to threaten the general public citing a misdeed by his God who rained down halitosis (mouth odour) on a previous commentator. This is to say that your opinions be cooked alongside your Sunday dinner and downed with a glass of cold drink or you face the wrath of God. This is where the lines are crossed and a calling to order is of the essence. I will touch your anointed! I'm an advocate for qualitative education and I understand that qualitative education is painfully expensive. So if I man walked up to me and stated reasons based on the current economic state of this country for a hike in fees, I should agree with him. However to put God as an excuse is plain wrong! It's a method of blackmail and an avenue to shut the mouth of those who might dare question. And this is the religion of the Nigerian god! Whether a chosen dancer or an ordained fee payer. It's the same thing. How do you explain this god to me that fixes a price on the fees but doesn't create scholarships for at least 50% of the impoverished members of the church? How does a god build a school on donations from the poor and shut them out of it? How does this god rain halitosis on men for asking questions? God should be a God of the people but the new generation god has failed to meet up to standards The new generation god is robbing peter and Paul to pay himself. The new generation wants your life, your time and your money. The new generation god is greedy. He's a god of pigs, he's unethical and doesn't believe in his cleanliness mantra anymore. The new generation god trades blessings for a fee and leeches off the poor. He has raised men to stand gallantly and profess his tyranny. The same bible talks about perishing and knowledge - "my people perish for lack of knowledge" The same Bible says that "wisdom is profitable to direct" But to see the cancer that is religion in society today it is obvious we do not need more churches. We don't need a new religion We don't need more prophets neither do we need a new god. We need renewal, renewal of our minds. We need understanding and we need wisdom. Only then we will know better than to fan the embers of religious stupidity. Beautiful week to you! 1 Like 1 Share |

So here's the thing, I will test run a writing contest for teenagers (13-18) the win might not be much because I'm starting out. Might just be #3-5k for now, but all contestants and winners get to own full right to their intellectual property! I get to post the best contestants on my site BUT WITH THEIR FULL CREDIT. so if you are a teenager and you can whip a five hundred word story that puts your peers to shame, THIS IS FOR YOU!!

| Celebrities / Bobrisky, Morality And Fifty Million Naira. by RCINC: 2:06pm On Oct 27, 2016 |
So let me rush this. This isn't a rant. I promise it won't be too lengthy. Yesterday I logged onto my Twitter to find the Nigerian Twitter agog, OK. Before then I had just stumbled on the news by sahara reporters that stated that our own MORAL KING Reuben Abati was DASHED 50MILLION! (Yes my eyes popped even wider than yours) so while the thought of a dashed fifty million remained in my mind, I hastily concluded that the twitter drama was centred around it, but I was wrong. It wasn't about Reuben or a dashed fifty million, neither was it about the shameless women warring for Patience Jonathan, it was different and about a supposedly gay cross dresser - BOBRISKY and the saga of having an uneducated heathen amongst 'Reputable' men at the EIE event. So Bobrisky is a man that has been said to sleep with other men (we have closet homosexuals on twitter raving in disapproval) Bobrisky is the cover boygirl for bleaching ( as is Nkechi and Shola) Bobrisky is uneducated! (Some miscreants throwing stones could barely type in English) Bobrisky is not a role model and should never been seen as one by the youth ( who is a role model?) The hypocrisy in Nigeria is alarming! Just a few days ago a beauty queen and a slimy cucumber were signed into history. This is not to judge but who would have 'thunk it'? That a 'Beauty queen' will engage in acts only to be done as she so rightly put it in a failed damage control press release - by people who were not brought up right. Who really would have? Then it was our Reuben and a dashed fifty million, tomorrow it might be whoever. Had these aforementioned been put up on a flyer to preach on new media perhaps it would have been more aligned with the mission and vision of Alder consulting but no it had to be BOBRISKY, the male slut. I'm not about to condemn Alder consulting or any other human who pulled out of the event, heck I would pull out with immediate alacrity should I be put on the same panel with bobrisky! This is not because he has been accused of being homosexual or because he has bleached his sins away, but simply because brands should be respected and I would never want to be associated with anyone or anything that only speaks about a BAE and sex! What's that about? My reputation counts! And so does Alder's and Bashir's However in one thing I stand with the risky, as we all get an opportunity to stand these days! I stand with him and against the unprofessional judge judys that have made him their target for moral judgements. Those of you with the book of life entrusted into your care by the god you serve. The same people that make love to cucumbers behind closed doors. The same that are shameless closet rapists. The same that jump from hotel to hotel in a bid to live the good life. The same ones that are thieves and cyber criminals. The same ones that have achieved nothing and strive for failure. I stand with Bobrisky against you all! He may not be perfect but neither are the most of you...of us! Habiba is a young teenage girl married to a 65-year-old Emir. A lot of you stood with girls but have your butts glued to a chair in a time it matters. Our president needs loan to run a country driven to it's grave. Some shameless women are hanging their breast in the sky for Patience Jonathan. Reuben Abati was dashed fifty million. And a lot of northern Nigerian girls still belong to the other room and a hospital ward treating VVF, BUT!!! All we can be worried about is the morality of a male diva who struts his stuff to the bank? Nigeria! Who really hath bewitched thee?

| Politics / I Stand With Habiba! I Stand With Girls! by RCINC: 8:31am On Oct 23, 2016 |
On the 11th day of October, the best number of the world stood with the girls, the greatest asset to humanity! Today, I will talk about the girl child and why we must all remain standing in coming years. Recently, the Emir of Katsina forcefully converted to islam and married a 14-year-old girl CHILD, in a few months, if due action is not taken, rather than a WASSCE form to her name she might obtain a hospital form to cure some vulnerable disease. Standing with the girl child you must understand surpasses hash tags and retweets, it's bigger than a demo Facebook picture and some social media rant. Standing with the girl child is action, it's progressive and it's challenging. To stand with the girl is to be a religious fanatic of the girl child, it's to breathe fire, brimstone and molten larva upon the heathens of this religion. It's to abolish heresy in the land and live your life fully prepared for a war. The girl child without doubt has been used and abused, so if you must stand, you must stand to set things straight! To elevate with pride the beauty that is the girl child. To stand you must stop the atrocities and condemn to utter abolition the treacherous doings to the girl, to stand with the girl is to stand against child marriage, is to give a girl a chance at education and stand against marginalization, it's to stop domestic violence and terminate rape, it's to beautify the world of a girl and deliver possibilities to her. The girl child is a movement! The girl child is a goal An achievement A dream! The girl child is society! The girl child is the future! The girl child is reality And to stand with her is to stand with the future. It's to stand eternally erect for justice, equality, and equity. I stand firmly with the girl child and firmly against the injustice meted upon her! I stand against her molesters and the perpetrators of crime upon her! I stand firmly with her, as should you, as should everyone! "The girl child is a portrait of colorful imperfections and perfections. Don't touch her! Project her!" - Adora https://theadoraweb./2016/10/23/to-stand-with-girls/ |

It’s about 2am where I am, Lagos Nigeria, I’m on the phone with a high school friend (friend because I do not have other words to express this relationship) back in highschool, the guy in question was not my friend, ever. He was some dude who I never really paid attention to, the boys in school never really liked him anyway, he was the guy who owned with pride the ‘he has slept with every girl’ tag, I couldn’t care less though, but I was on the phone with him and now he made me laugh, talking about how mature I sound compared to the funny voice he once knew, he confessed to not liking me reminding me of how bitchy I was once assumed to be (never been bitchy). He said a lot of things, so did I. Revisiting our past seemed easy, talking about all the many negative things we once despised about each other. How simple would life and the world be if we didn't just shut our mouth to some things? I thought about it too. Definitely different. There's not a lot of my high school mates on my phone book, I might keep this one. So we talk and we laugh, then talk some more about 'things’ its nice, and by 3:30am we are bidding our farewells definitely we would speak again, probably see, probably whatever, yes. Did I mention I was on the laptop? I was, picking my brains, trying as much as possible to let my creative juices flow? I'm working on a script it would be fantastic yes! So I return to it, but I'm too tired already, it’s 4am, it’s independence day in my country, what will you be doing today a text message asks me all the way from Calabar. I wont be doing much, I don’t respond, what is there to do? Other than what I have always done? Nothing. The day isn’t special to me, wasn’t ever. I see people pull out their placards of discontent every year, I'm done with that. No I will not go online to cry about the useless folks that sit on power, a government full of completely mentally disoriented imbeciles and thieving wolves who at the slightest are waiting to tear down our country. I wont do that, I would rather write my script, then I would think some more, pray, pray maybe but not for the foolishly misguided, I would sleep, be well rested and wake to the 2nd to carry on my independence like the crucifix, to bear the burdens of my slavery and hope that one day my chains are cut, I'm cut, cut loose from terrorism. When will we be free? When will Nigerians celebrate their independence, as a nation full of independent individuals, perceive you not a more rightful time than now? As many that celebrate a false independence would in the end power their generators and be providers of their own electricity, they would drive with intense carefulness lest be consumed by deathtraps, they would break the bank to provide their own good education, they would run their businesses on their sweat and blood and yet feed the wolves off their painful profit. Are we not our own god? Our own governors and rulers, are we not? So why then do you say happy independence to Nigerians? When after all they are still a nation confined to the grip of slavery, with everyman a slave to the government and his needs left unattended to by them? Happy independence? I think not. Its 6am, October 1st. I shall now sleep. https://theadoraweb./2016/10/03/the-independent-trauma/ |

| Celebrities / Linda Ikeji VS Dora Akunyili....folishness!!! by RCINC: 3:24pm On Sep 12, 2016 |
Just so you know Nigeria is in recession. Yes! You are going to have to manage the peanut you get at month's end to live in this shit hole you call a country. This is when you start to question the sanity of your father and what he watered while Dangote is currently harvesting. Listen close. Recession or not, this is what your kids will be doing fast forward twenty years from now if you don't get busy. Nigeria is a country that drips of incompetency. I don't care much for your opinions because the truth stands that Nigeria is endowed with lazy incompetent envious youth! Recently, a picture of Linda ikeji in comparison to Dora Akunyili hit the internet while one posed in a closet full of fancy wears the other posed in a closet full of awards, do the math yourself. And the question attached is who would you rather be like? I bet you ten of my priceless books that the dimwit who created this is not only a human being but a human being still struggling to fulfill purpose in life and it is with the bitterness of the absence of success from his measly effort that he has gone ahead to undermine the effort of a young woman. First off can I ask why on earth linda was compared to a scholar? Why not Perez Hilton or Genevieve? Why? Because jealousy is an incurable disease! Rather than work hard to make money or get your hands soiled with your sweat, the Nigerian youth sits steady behind a smartphone wasting alphabets in the name of 'know yourself challenge' 'comments' and 'clap backs'. They have mastered an act, the act of bringing people down with their words, so the wanking to likes, comments and retweets feels good and empowers them to do more. Some of them are jobless, some work for the change they shall now count to survive recession, some live off their parents but what remains of utmost concern is the ability to put others down and demean their efforts. It's why a 74 year old man who should be in a retirement home is president enough to tell you that change starts with you. It's why the dumb bleeps of Kenya would be bold enough to compare ICT ministers with you. It's why the country remains stagnant. It's why your kids will ask what you watered when so and so starts harvesting But let's pretend for a second that linda ikeji is our problem and that Nigeria would be so much better if she stopped showing off the nice things that she has and we obviously can't afford.

So women are afterthoughts? Please, no human being created by the God Almighty is an afterthought! I refuse to accept that ideology! An ideology that applauds sexism and misogynism in society, no! How can anyone with half a brain, regardless of who or what you bow to believe for a split second that another human being is an afterthought? Not just an afterthought, but an afterthought created for the sole purpose to slave and serve another man? How? If I being a woman should be labelled an afterthought created to bow to a man, what business do I have serving God? Shouldn't this make me completely irrelevant to this God who thought me so unimportant he created me to be on earth just to serve another man? What business do I have preaching and winning souls for this God who sees me as an irrelevant being? How could God create me to stroke the ego of another human? Christian women who donate tithes and offering to listen to this message should be slapped mercilessly to stupor! I want no business serving that God! If that is what your God is about please keep him and keep him to yourself alone! I want nothing to do with a God that perceives me to be an afterthought. A God that created a master I should serve all life long. A God that supports misogynism and third world ideologies. A God that calls me second fiddle for the vagina he so rightly gave me? I want no business with that God and religious centres of that God! I have no business donating to an offering box of men who see me as a filthy rag to be used by them. I have no business sitting amongst men who jerk off the idea of me being a slave No! I reject to be associated with this. I'm not an afterthought! I don't choose to be one ever! And if you are a woman contributing offering to be told this and you still have the audacity to shout feminist, your case is so pathetic, I shall now prescribe Aluja stop evil oil to you! (Two teaspoons twice daily X 7) Shut up and serve you master! https://theadoraweb./2016/09/10/for-the-women-who-are-afterthoughts/ The End.

| Crime / Absence Of Security In Nigeria In The Presence Of It by RCINC: 8:36am On Sep 09, 2016 |
This is a rant. Every night while going home, our cab stops at a check point where our driver gives a fancy handshake to a policeman after a minute of worded combat. I live at the satellite town in Calabar, an safe haven for my thoughts I might say as its tranquility is of a different breed from that in the main town, should there be any in the main town. It's where a lot of folks with a thirst for environmental serenity reside, and this lot of folks include some politicians and lots of individuals with hefty bank accounts. It's no wonder why the neighborhood has become prey to malevolent young men and their cohorts, waiting for the next fence to jump and rob. It is because of them and the agitation they give raving dogs that we no longer sleep at night. Rarely would you find a house without a dog waiting to rip the next intruder apart, yet, with each passing day there are sorry tales of a burglary in a house close to yours that leaves you anticipating your turn with fear like a child at the dentist's. I have never fallen prey to these ones but I kid you not I have awoken to a pair of thieving eyes peering at me in the dark through the window and scampering away at the outburst of my screams. Welcome to the satellite town, that has young men trafficking guns to enrich their pockets off another's sweat. The satellite town where a car parked in your house is done so at your risk. The satellite town where fences as strong as Jericho's wall is child play to thieves. The satellite town that now has the security of the police every night. The police are there to scan cars and ensure that nothing shady passes by. They are there to ensure the thieving young men don't get to destination. They are there so we can sleep at night or pray or Bleep without interruption from barking dogs They are there however to enrich their pockets and get hold of hundred and fifty naira's. Under their watch, we have had robbery cases Under their watch crimes still get committed Why? Because of the incompetence that is the Nigerian security system. Because oga police would lazily collect his change and forget to properly scan the vehicle. Because oga police doesn't care about the security. Because oga police might be the first to run should in case a gun is shot. Because "hold it, your particulars there" is another way of saying "I want fifty box". We were sitting in this cab watching one shamelessly drag 'change' with the cab man, when our cab moves I hear the many sorry tales of the Nigerian police and how evil continues to escape under their watch and I'm ashamed! "Give them 1000 naira, you go turn suspect, give them 50 box ehen na wetin dem want be that" Nigeria, which way? https://theadoraweb./2016/09/09/absence-of-security-in-nigeria-in-the-presence-of-it/ |
