God provides. Bad government takes.
Tell me why we have to pay exorbitant prices for petrol?
Tell me why we have to pay through our noses just to eat?
Even if you grow your own food, you still pay heavily for produce.
Tell me why terrorists kill us like Christmas chickens.
Bad government is evil.

Exactly! Tinubu is also forcing us to appreciate communal living again.
Why live alone when you and 5 of your mutuals can pool resources to share a 1-bedroom flat and a single generator?
He is bringing back the spirit of togetherness.

Tinubu met a bag of rice at N80,000. Through his reforms and heavy investment in agriculture, the price of a 50kg bag of rice is now N55,000. This administration has recorded the highest rate of reduction in food inflation.

@luminoux_e @presciencemode Such experience is what we can never wish for our enemies. I pray they come back alive

Even if we rarely admit it, in our daily lives we are often required to master the art of the chameleon. This means not showing all our cards, sometimes pretending, withholding the full truth, and adjusting our reactions to fit the environment.
As uncomfortable as it sounds, this adaptability is often necessary to survive and thrive.
In many workplaces, for example, you may be encouraged to “be open” and point out where things are going wrong. Yet in reality, you soon realize that such honesty is not truly welcome.
Those in charge often already know the problems but lack the willingness to change. Still, you have little choice but to remain, adapt, and play the role of the chameleon.
We often say we want the truth, but most of the time we only accept it from people who are very close to us
Even then, we may not like what we hear, but the relationship compels us to listen. Outside of that circle, honesty is frequently met with resistance rather than reflection.
So, learn to master the chameleon. Do not always speak or react based on how you feel in the moment.
Do not be like glass, transparent and easily broken. Life, in many ways, is a chameleon’s game, and adaptability is one of its most essential skills.

@luminoux_e Well said I will borrow your words. Thank you so much

@Three_Leg_Bird Okay. Does it mean He failed those who were kidnapped, killed, or died tragically?
English

The failure is a product of Man's carelessness through the STATE (government) which they assisted to bring to power.

@UjGlow If God is the reason we're still living, does that mean He failed those who were kidnapped, killed, or died tragically?

What changed?
Today, they quiet
Posterity!

Nigerian religious leaders are practicing selective accountability.

@luminoux_e The painful part is that we have the resources; what's missing is effective leadership and accountability.

@luminoux_e @Drealad0nis You think this country isn’t at war ??
This type of war is usually worse because it’ll be overlooked till it eats up the nation gradually. If it’s an external threat, everybody will be at alert. But this type of war, people will still be going to clubs.

Three weeks ago, my 23-year-old neighbor was kidnapped on her way to Kontagora in Niger State.
While in captivity, the bandits repeatedly raped her taking turns sleeping with her night after night. Still, they kept bargaining with her father over the phone, demanding ransom even as they violated her.
Her father fought with everything he had. He hustled day and night, borrowed from everyone, took loans, sold whatever he could determined to bring his daughter home.
When he finally gathered the full amount, he called the bandits and begged them, ‘Please, give the phone to my daughter. Let me speak to her. I want her to know I’m coming for her.’
They gave her the phone.
In a broken, traumatized voice, she told her father: ‘Dad, do not suffer yourself looking for the money. They have been sleeping with me. I’m traumatized. I can’t forgive myself. Even if I’m released, I’ll kill myself. Don’t bother paying the ransom.’
Those were the last words she ever spoke to him.
While her father was still holding the phone, he heard the gunshot. He heard his daughter being killed. Moments later, the bandits sent pictures of her remains to him, a final act of cruelty.
A 23-year-old girl. My neighbor. Someone’s daughter, someone’s sister, someone’s friend gone in the most horrific way possible.
This is not just one story. This is the nightmare too many families are living in Niger State and across Nigeria. Young women snatched on the roads, violated, used as bargaining chips, and discarded like nothing.
Living in Nigeria has become truly scary. You wake up, you step out, and you don’t know if you or your loved ones will return home. The fear is constant. The pain is constant. And too often, justice never comes.
Rest in peace to my neighbor.
