@BaxibyOnafriq it's a month & half now since have been unable to make withdrawals. How do you expect businesses to thrive & survive if institutions like yours make things difficult for your customers. I just need to withdraw my money, is that too much to ask?

Please allow me to provide a slight different perspective. I don’t think the problem is ignorance, or lack of exposure. Let me begin with the ones on top.
Most of the people wrecking Nigeria, and many of the idiot aides defending them online, have travelled widely. Some shuttle in and out of London, Dubai, Paris, Berlin with enviable regularity. They know exactly what functional airports look like. They have used steady electricity. They have enjoyed public transport that works. They have tasted what it means to live in a place where the state does its basic job.
And yet they return home perfectly comfortable reproducing dysfunction.
Now this is the same with those at the bottom. Even for them the issue is not that they don’t know what a good country looks like. There is social media, or they have relatives who probably live abroad. They know it is possible. It is that many people, even poor people, but especially those close to power, are deeply uninterested in true equality, uninterested in reducing our violent hierarchies, uninterested in living in a society where there is no one beneath them. It sounds harsh but I really do think that even on a cultural level, Nigerians do not desire equality. They just don't want to be at the bottom of the ladder. But you see that ladder, too many people want, even need it. In Hausa we say, duniya kwandon dankali - Manya kan kanana -- the world, a basket of potatoes, the big ones piled on top of the small ones. (You know like how those people who sell tomatoes or potatoes on highways hide the small of bad tomatoes or tomatoes at the bottom of the basket🤣). We love that basket arrangement. We just don't want to be the rotten tomato or small potato at the bottom.
The middle class madam does not want to sit in the same train as her housemaid, even if she is happy to sit next to people she is richer than in public transport abroad. The junior political aide, who has narrowly escaped extreme poverty and begun to put on flesh since leaving his village to work for a politician, does not want shared amenities either. He wants to go back to the village and be bowed to. Be called oga. Have people kneel.
How many Nigerians genuinely want their children in the same schools as their drivers’ children? How many want to use the same hospitals as their gatekeepers as the women braiding their hair in the market? How many want public goods so good that private alternatives become unnecessary?
So airlifting everyone abroad, like the Devil took Jesus to a high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, will not magically produce consensus for reform. Exposure alone does not create virtue.
What many people actually want is the ability to escape, not the obligation to fix. They want to travel abroad occasionally, take photos in Cape Town or Joburg or Seychelles, and return home to lord those images over people who cannot leave. Mobility becomes a status weapon. Dysfunction becomes useful.
I remember a moment in Kaduna that clarified this for me. NEPA took light. It was getting dark. A young girl shouted to their gateman: Maigadi, bambamta mu da saura!—“Gateman, distinguish us from the others.” She wanted the generator turned on. She was delighted at the idea of being the only house glowing on a pitch-dark street.
That sentence contains a political philosophy.
This is why Nigerian elites are comfortable building vulgar mansions surrounded by potholes, shanties, hunger, and decay. Wealth means nothing without visible poverty to frame it. Power requires contrast. Hierarchy needs spectators.
If everyone had access to dignity—reliable electricity, clean water, functional transport—how would big men be worshipped? How would pastors promise what governments should provide? How would politicians and traditional leaders maintain relevance? How would people (even average Nigerians) find poor people's children to turn into slaves, aka housemaids? How else would someone have the temerity to beat his chest and ask: do you know who I am?
So the problem is not that Nigerians don’t know better. Many know. They just don’t want a society where dignity is common. They want one where it is scarce—and personally controlled.
That is a harder problem than ignorance. And it cannot be solved by excursions.

This is Abdulrasheed. No, he’s not deceased. He’s alive and well. This is just to document his humanity and share proof that there are many Nigerians who care little about religion, tribe or tongue in their interactions with their fellow citizens.
I met him in 1999 when I needed a suit in preparation for my resumption at the Nigerian Law School. I couldn’t afford a new one so buying a second hand or used one was the smartest choice even though that itself came at a price that was not easily affordable. So I bought one from Abdulrasheed who at that time did not know me from Adam. I got home with my prized possession only to discover that the trouser was a tight fit. My stay at home for 9 months awaiting admission had obviously come at the cost of some added weight. So off I went to Abdulrasheed to return the suit. He accepted it without fuss and offered me another in exchange. He then asked me to pick an extra, advising that having two would serve my means longer than having just one. I told him there was no way I could afford an extra one. He calmly asked me to pick it and return at any time I had the means to pay. This man did not know me, did not know where I lived and therefore did not possess any means of contacting me if I failed to return with the payment. I accepted the offer and returned a month later to pay.
That marked the beginning of a friendship that continues to this day. I remained his dedicated customer after I left the law school and well into my career as a legal practitioner until fate smiled on the son of man and I could afford a new suit and look dapper like another friend from way back then, Chris Adetayo.
I have been fortunate to have encounters such as this one in life. People have been kind to me. I will relate some other experiences later. I however find in this one, definite proof that there is a humanity in all of us that transcends anything on the outward, be it the colour of the skin, tribe, religion, tribe etc that suggests a difference. Perhaps when we give that innate connection the priority it deserves, Nigeria will be the better place it is meant to be.
I won’t fly #IbomAir again. The airline could remove the passenger without dehumanising her. No matter the offence, exposing the girl's nudity violates her. In a rational society, the airline would face severe consequences.
