The image goes; been an African could feel like life cheated you, especially when you grew up in a struggling community and poorly maintained power and rulings. I have come to an understanding to seeing things from different perspective. Looking above what normal people would see and comprehend.
The struggle of survival is truly everywhere but has you keep on pushing its feels like you are moving no where(I.e. the act of feeling no progress).
The only way you can survive comfortably been an African presently is when you work has;
- Programmer.
- Blogger.
- Crypto investor / trader.
- Analysts.
- Arts and Music production.
- Freelancer (Field speciality).
Following the present currency of the Country, it all Jammed it can’t pay the bills and the minimum wages. After the Lockdown wave by the Government; prices of things increased, standard of living moved to an unbearable point, most people lost there jobs, some lost there loved ones no health care.
Quiet alright I know the Covid-19 outbreaks disorganized most countries and made them almost fall but the fact that the Government used this opportunity to embezzle more than enough money to feed thousands, help upgrade health’s cares, give opportunities to feature projects and serving the people major concentration. Instead we have been abandoned by the country after squeezing out all pockets. Leaving us to crashed down values of NGN and never looked back. During the lock down I couldn’t see the sun for eight months till we all discovered it has just been formulated numerous positive COVID patients.
The people don’t care anymore, everyone is angry and going desperately on how to fight poverty and hunger. We feel like the country has been sold and has no setting ruler no more.
Hospitals are increasing bills treating patients with slow healing process and enforcing to give the vaccine has part of any medication bills and the newly birth babies are now vaccinated with Covid vaccines; which keep us wondering if they are truly fighting the COVID or just making sample test among the newly born trying to find a way to reduce the population of the Country. To be honest I fear the coming feature of the country and what comes after now.
Presently, the Government has no more control, everyone is focused on there own needs, what favors there survival and interest. The people are going crazy and wild on every decision they make, not having a second thoughts.
Thoughts
At times I wonder if we are moving forward or backward. Never the case may be, it isn’t easy out there I wouldn’t lie to you just keep striving to survive. Nothing good comes easy, am still young and learning there’s more to understand about the system. Take out the fear of failure towards the society and skill.

Every morning, I tell my self I can get through this day without no bad vibe or worries. Take control of my emotions and focus on the solution. Listen more and talk less. Get settled and study myself. One day it’s all going to be fine.
Now the enforcement of the vaccines are popping up. “WHAT NEXT?”
