DIFFERENT REACTIONS FOR DIFFERENT SITUATION

Unlike those that lived in the 90s, we currently live in a world where rascality is seen as a norm.

Do anything you want, and you get a one way free ticket out facing he consequences, given you have enough money to settle the law.

Doing drugs, taking of alcohol and other toxic and harmful substance are now the other of the day.

Everyone wants to feel "among" and no body wants to be "Jew man" as they call it.

Irrespective of the fact that the economy is crippled, people still find a way to get money for organizing huge late night parties and still bring illegal, toxic and harmful substance to the party, for "highness" as they call it.

Growing up, I was taught that all liers shall go to hell and burn to ashes. This has subconsciously put a phobia for lieing in me. Anytime I want to lie, I remember what I used to be told, so I refrain from it.

Different illicit things are going on in the country, just for survival.
Worthy of note, is the fact that people steal from other people, just to make their finance fat.

Moral conduct has been lost. People cry, citizens try, and they are preparing to protest. The ones promising country is currently at the verge of going down as its currency is constantly depreciating, with no hopes or appreciating.

Just as the Nigerian constitution, each offence has a purnishment attached to it. My reaction towards a person that steals will be totally different from my reaction towards a person that tells a lie.

Stealing is not normal, and is illegal. However, as things are currently, I will not want to criticize a person that steals. Instead, I will give the best advice I have, and teach the person how to legally fish online or offline, depending on their capability.

This Is because I know how tough things can be. Getting to eat twice a day is a rare occurrence, as every food item is readily appreciating by the minute.
Even though they have two hands and legs, and they can work for food, our opportunities are not the same. They may lack knowledge on how to make good money for better living.

Based on this, I will not immediately criticize, neither will I hand them over to the authorities or to the citizens for jungle justice.

Instead, I will want to take that person under my wings, show him or her the amazing money they can make by doing little things online. I will want to each then on how to make this money, and also, advice them to bring other people so as to save them from the illegal path they are threading on.

If they refuse to listen, then I leave them to their fate, but I will never judge anyone.

Speak of lieing. Like I said earlier, the way I react to stealing, is totally different from the way I will react to a person that lies.

I will not actually expose the person there, but I will be a Nigerian parent to the person afterwards.
3 hours talk will be an introduction to the advice I have for the person. I will make sure that they see reasons to no do such things again.

If they refuse to change, then I will report them to their parent without thinking twice.

Now I will do this because lieing is a slow killer. The things they did in the party that made them to lie, is something that can slowly kill them over time.
Not trying to be judgemental or trying to tell someone how to live their life, but being my friend means that you stay away from some irresponsible activities. Unnecessary partying is one of it.

This is my entry to the hive naija prompt.
