RE: Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement #85 - “THE GIANT OF AFRICA”

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Well, lemme drop my honest opinion before all of una scatter ground😁...

"Naija no dey carry last," " we're the giant of Africa." I believe you will all permit me to say that phrase was once upon a time, it used to be our brag back then, not anymore. Anyone who says such slogan now is either chasing clout or just cruising, because it's not our reality. Because, how are we not last, or how are we giant of Africa with unstable electricity, bad roads, bad governance, unemployment, fuel scarcity, and there's the issue of gas as we discussed last week, not to talk of the huge school fees we now pay in our various institutions and many more... This days, we are only surviving.

What can I even say, all of us now dun turn motivational speaker as we dey try use those words take hold body, wbule keeping our hope alive.

I even saw a chart recently that showed how poverty stricken our country is, I think we were ranked in the first five, guess what, our leaders debunked it. The truth o.

But then again, we still find ways of surviving, we now turn our pain into cruise and laugh it off, we can see our musicians topping charts, some of our influencers doing well and making waves, and it kind of...gave us hope.

But then, maybe it's a gift from God, I dont know but we are the type who fall, rise again and even joke with it, we can survive in almost any condition. Truth be told though, "We really deserve much more than just surviving."

I pray God help us all...

Naija no dey carry last is now a statement of the past cause presently it's the complete opposite.

There's one thing I seemed to notice about us Ni-ge-ri-anssss though. We tend to adapt way too fast to every given condition we're thrown into. But I must say, that has been the oxygen keeping us alive in this country.

Despite all, our people are still ringing bells everywhere they go and if that is not a blessing, I don't know what it is.
You broke it all down bit by bit brooo. So proud of you...... You're following my footsteps now 😁.

You've summarized it all too. We tend to adapt way too fast, we only complain or murmur for a while, and the next second, you see us doing our things as if....🤦
