I am a Northern girl. But I am not the Northern girl you imagined.

When people hear “Northern Nigeria,” many immediately picture a Muslim Hausa woman.

That woman exists.

But so do I.

I am a Northern girl. I am Christian. I am not Hausa. I am Laka/Godogodo.

And sometimes explaining that feels like I am introducing myself three times before people finally understand where I come from.

The problem is that Northern Nigeria has been reduced to one religion, one language, one culture and one kind of woman.

But the North is not one people.

There are Christians. Traditionalists. Muslims. Indigenous ethnic groups. Minority languages. Women who wear hijab and women who don’t. Women who grew up in churches. Women who grew up in mosques. Women whose grandparents spoke languages most Nigerians have never even heard of.

We exist.

And I think one reason many people don’t know we exist is because we haven’t told our stories loudly enough.

So yes, I am a Northern girl.

Just not the version of Northern Nigeria you were taught to imagine.

I was in Nairobi a few days ago for my premiere and I spent a few hours with @wmnjoya at the Sarit Centre rooftop area.

You could barely move because of how many people there were. People were out with their families spending money and enjoying a day out. Literally hundreds of people. By the way, Kenya is not by any means a successful economy, but the visible symbols of commercial activity in Nairobi are undeniably busy. Commerce is actually taking place there.

And then there is Nigeria. Every single time I meet someone who just came from there, I hear the same thing - all the shops and malls are empty. People go into malls to buy one item and take pictures, because the mere experience of going to the mall has become out of reach for most regular people. You have no idea how much this pisses me off!

I've been warning for years that Nigeria is being deliberately steered into complete irrelevance. Uber makes more money in Nairobi than Lagos - and Lagos has 4 times Nairobi's population! Africa's largest population centre is increasingly being treated as if it has no more economic importance than Lesotho or Eswantini!

I fucking hate this shit!

[David Hundeyin @DavidHundeyin]

If I wanted to maintain my current standard of living, but in Nigeria, it would cost too much to be realistic.

Nigerian prices are way too expensive in USD terms despite having such a devalued currency, and I don't understand how everyone is quiet.

That country is stupidly expensive for no reason at all🤷🏾

[hybrid9111 @goodhuman91]

@DavidHundeyin You will think Nigeria is not expensive until you need
24/7 electricity
24/7 internet
Go to store with $100 worth of Naira to get groceries( you will get 2 small bags),especially in that Lagos.
Tueh 🏃🏃

@TWEETORACLE And this is not entirely true, $400,000 in 2015 isn’t the same as $4,000,000. Rather, it’s about $552,023 in 2026

Let’s get the facts straight

[Wayne_NotCarter!!! 🎶🎤 @AlaniOmarWayne]

@SavvyRinu @Hauwa_L Wait what? Why are people shocked this happened? Why am I seeing people asking if it’s a skit?
