i remember asking people in a gc that if they were president would they embezzle. omo a significant amount of them said they would😭 my flabber was gasted.

it was then i realized that there isn’t much hope for us. the corrupt adults my generation claims to despise live and breathe in a lot of us.

i told them that if i ever hear them complaining about our president i would give them a dirty slap. and every time i see one of them moving mad i remind them that they are the reason our country is like this.

it feels so good to have my thoughts written out like this, it’s a lovely article.

Thank you very much❤️❤️

Nigeria is a mirror. The people in power are us, we are them.

This is how it starts

“God no go shame us” but somehow we’re okay shaming ourselves loudly, proudly and with our full chest. And the poor girl that committed all they had to say was the “attention” she wanted? Not the pressure, not the expectations and disappointment she felt. Maybe let’s stop with the comfort messages and sit with the mess for once. So much more to say but well done Akpenkssss😭❤️👏

How can you even say she commited suicide because she was not loved at home?? How stupid do you have to be to vomit such words?😭

This is great Teeyarh!! Definitely enjoyed every part of it and it’s so real. Everyone has a role to play but as you said “maybe the system as trained you to think adaptation is wisdom” 10❤️

Thisssss!… did not come to play, Atiyyah 💜😭. It came with mirror, torchlight, and microphone. Every line stung and rightly so. Nigeria didn’t happen to us, we kept it happening, we are the ones doing ourselves okayyy😂, this is a 1000/10Atiyyah! 👏🏽🔥

I was hesitant to finish reading at first, questioning why you'd label those who contributed little to nothing to the country's progress, and instead spent their time idling, as MVPs. Yet, after completing the piece, I found your perspective enlightening. It's a fantastic read, definitely worth the 10/10 rating.

"Because, of course, who needs a functioning system when there’s a constant reassurance that “God will not shame us”?" Okay ma'am. Okayyy.

The way you bring out humour, seriousness, sarcasm, name it. I am in loveee with your ink on paper ml.
