Afrojugation: The political and economic subjugation of Africans by Africans; the bloating of identity and primordial ties for selfish interest.

[Tope Akinyetun @topinson4all]

It is unusual of me to rant, but I reckon that little is said about this gang of misfits threatening businesses and posing greater security risks. No doubt, decisive and intentional policies are required to tackle these headlong.
Here I rest!

End.

What should be said of a nation that moved from "Ise loogun ise" to "owo mi da"? It appears the external diseconomies of scale such as traditional tributes, otherwise informal ground rents, otherwise 'owo ile' is killing businesses faster than surging inflation, 1/4

[Tope Akinyetun @topinson4all]

Are we not building a system of endangerment? So what will happen when there are no more 'mugus' to oblige the dreaded "owo mi da" call? Are we not prone to perpetual attacks? Are we safe?
