@Spearhead_Af This is really educating. Africa's problems are more from external factors than within... This is indeed an eye opener for those who still think all our problems are caused by bad leadership
You've Been Lied To - The West Is Not Saner
The myth that the West is inherently "saner" and more protective of its citizens has been sold to Africans for too long.
The recent US Supreme Court ruling in favour of biotech giant Monsanto exposes the fact that Western systems also sacrifice ordinary people when corporate profit is at stake. They are just very good at packaging impunity and hiding behind polished institutions while giving their brand of corruption fancy names.
Africans must as a matter of urgency discard the completely false idea that our problems exist only because of African leaders, while ignoring the global power structures that protect and project corporate power around the world, while directly fuelling Africa's underdevelopment.
The system that tells Africans that we are sole cause of our problems is the exact same system profiting from our problems. That lie must be dismantled.
Please oh, yahoo boys in the house.. (a.k.a thieves).. how do you people do it? I mean your conscience..
Yesterday, I made a 50k transfer to a POS man. I did this on my way to get some things as I didn't have my card with me.
I received an alert later in the evening, and the balance wasn't corresponding. It was 50k higher than what I expected to have left in the account. Curious, I checked immediately and realised the 50k I earlier sent to that POS man either didn't go through, or was reversed. The man didn't even bother to check if it dropped before I left. Probably because I was already in a cab. He also had a few customers he was attending to.
I quickly hailed a bike as I stepped out, straight to his stand. He had closed for the day.
I was restless within me. You know why? He would go home, and find out he's short of 50k. He would not be happy, he would feel pained. He's a family man, he has kids he needs to feed.. he might be thinking he had lost the money. I thought of every possible emotions that man may feel over the night. I was sad for him, but happy because I knew I will get back to him by morning.
This morning, I headed to his POS stand again. He was there. He didn't even recognise me. I had to explain that I was the lady in a cab that withdrew 50k yesterday. And that the money was reversed or something. This man almost had my head with his "thank you". He kept saying.. "thank you madam, God bless you." I transferred to him and was almost on my way. He stopped me and asked "why?".
Why what?... I don't understand. It's your money.
Two men were there when this happened. One of them told the man that he was lucky, the other one said "all these one na show, if I see bombing bomb now.. everywhere go stew". I immediately knew he was an "upcoming" thief (yahoo boy).
The man kept lamenting about how much he had lost on that stand. But he keeps pushing because he has a family to take care of.
He asked me to come to his stand at anytime I probably need "help". That, he will never forget my face.
On my way, I kept pondering and asking myself how we got here. When has it become something to celebrate, that someone returns to return YOUR OWN MONEY!
If you can take something that doesn't belong to you, and be comfortable, you're no longer a human. The devil is your apprentice.
Yahoo boys, I don't like you people at all because I don't like wicked people. If you're following me, please unfollow me now and block me.
T for thanks!!!
