One of the most recent lessons I have learnt in this life is how one can never be too sure of themselves.
I am seeing people’s lives take terrible turns despite being decent all their youth at an age you’d think they have already passed the stage of youthful exuberance.
Only one Nigerian:
Electricity-Band A, expensive and STILL unavailable.
Fuel-1350/1400 per litre. STILL disappears like air.
Food-beef 7,500/kg, rice 60-70,000 per bag, tomatoes 5-7k per custard bucket, onions 5-6k dustbin basket, yam-13-17k for 10 pcs, half for half. Among others
Security- God Abeg.
Water-borehole/sachet water/tanker water.
Road-LOL
Minimum wage-70,000 per month
Health-out of pocket. (Inside which money?)
Education-poor quality, STILL expensive for nothing.
NOW, cooking gas-2000-2,500/kg
Life is just unbearably and unnecessarily hard for the average Nigerian.
LIFE MUST NOT CONTINUE LIKE THIS.
With this kind of ethnic and religious hatred we see online every day, I honestly wonder, how have we managed to live together as one Nigeria all these years regardless of our ethnic and religious differences? How do we still work together, school together, laugh together, and do business side by side?
Are we truly living in peace, or just pretending, smiling at each other while our hearts are filled with anger and suspicion? Or is this hatred only real on social media, not in the real world?
Does Alhaji Abubakar selling cows in Onitsha feel this same hate? Does Mr. Nnamdi selling spare parts in Kano experience it too?
Are we just waiting for the slightest spark to turn on one another? To destroy everything we’ve built as a people and as a nation?
What kind of citizens are we becoming? What’s the point of all this hate when our country is big enough for everyone, every tribe, every faith, every dream?
Where did we go wrong? And when will we finally learn that hate doesn’t build… it only burns?
When will we finally stand together and fight the real enemies that destroy our future, terrorism, banditry, corruption, bad leadership, and resource predators? When will we stop pointing fingers and start holding hands to tackle poverty, inequality, injustice, youth unemployment, and impunity?
These are the forces that steal our children’s tomorrow and sell our tomorrow for short-term gain. Not tribe. Not faith. Not the neighbour who looks different. If we cannot unite against what truly eats at the heart of our nation, then all our smiles will be little more than a quiet surrender.
Let us rise, not in anger at each other, but in outrage at injustice. Let us demand leaders who serve, protectors who defend, and systems that reward honesty. Until we do, the real enemies will keep winning while we waste our strength on each other.

You really need some schooling,
Stop embarrassing your self, out of ignorance and bigotry.
The Nigerian Army logo was designed by a Christian, His name is lieutenant colonel David Ejoh.
He is the then chairman of the Nigerian Army dress committee.
Stop looking at things from the lenses of bigotry and hate.
Watch to the end.
..dry, while hunger and insecurity ravage our communities.
There has not been a single policy in this regime that has remotely favoured the common man.
So, Forgive us, O learned one, if we refuse to understand these hypocritical leaders of ours.
Lmaooooo 😂 😂 😂 😂
Please stop with the condescension. Is it today that Govt officials started talking with both sides of their mouth?
We don't fxcking trust the Nigerian Government. Removing subsidy was supposed to be followed by economic prosperity. Yet they're stealing us..
No, MS. They're not.
Northern Leaders are hypocrites.
They are always silent when & where it matters. I promise you, these same Southern Leaders you're mocking will never let our degree of insecurity ravage their people, while they amass their commonwealth and pretend all us well
Arewa24's "Zabi Biyu" is, most likely, the best Hausa drama ever produced, given its nearly flawless production quality. While the story may not appeal to some, especially the elderly, due to its focus on youth, its execution will undoubtedly captivate anyone who follows Kannywood.
We have watched six episodes so far. There is no dull moment. Each episode, packed with suspense, entertainment, and lessons, leaves you wanting more. The actors, most of whom are newcomers, deliver their performances as if they were seasoned professionals.
I doff my hat to both the actors and the crew, especially the writers and directors. A special credit also goes to our alma mater, Bayero University, Kano, for its 'cooperation' with Arewa24 in creating this excellent piece of art.
I shall write more about the series. Before then, I hope you enjoy it as well. If you haven't started watching it, I highly recommend it.

You’d think those we live and laugh with will be the first to debunk this falsehood but as we have seen many times, they stay quiet in times like these and act like they don’t know what this is all about.
