We dey shout say Nigeria get about $49 billion in reserves.
Okay. And so.
Nigeria debt pass $100 billion. External and domestic combined.
So who cares.
Na like person wey dey post bank alert say e get ₦49,000 for account,
but e owe creditors ₦100,000.
Wetin be the achievement.
The money no be free money.
The debt no disappear.
The creditors still dey knock.
Reserve no cancel debt.
Reserve no equal wealth.
Reserve no mean country don okay.
Until debt drop, production rise, and people feel am for ground,
this reserve celebration na noise.

My pikin push teacher ke?
I will buy enough pankere (Cain) and escort him to the school, look for the teacher and hand him over a piece of the Cain, and ask him to flog the child 6 stroke of the Cain on his bottocks. After which, I will now ask what really happened that warranted him pushing his teacher if I am not convinced enough I will flog him another 6 strokes on his buttocks.
You push teacher ke, how nau?
I am not even capping, it is exactly what I will do.
if I'm being honest with you, this constant chase for money at such a young age is starting to destroy me.
Academically, I can't focus in class anymore.
It's also taking a toll on my relationship, I barely talk to her, and maybe she thinks I don't love her anymore.
but the truth is, I'm just overwhelmed. It's ruining me as a person. I can't even sleep peacefully at night anymore.
