@kenkenlewu @IyelolaIge Calling this entitlement is too simplistic.
She didn’t demand, she chose what made more sense for her reality. When you live in scarcity, you think beyond the moment.
It may feel off, but not everything uncomfortable is entitlement. Sometimes, it’s just survival thinking.

Yesterday, I was sharing plates of food in my street.
I met a woman and her two kids going to fetch water.
I gave them three plates.
She refused.
I thought she was joking.
She said,
“They don’t need food. Monetize it for us.”
I begged her to let the kids take it, after all, it’s Easter.
She said no.
“If they eat it, they’ll start craving what I can’t afford. I don’t want that.”
I told her I didn’t have cash on me.
She asked me to describe my house.
This morning, she came.
So I gave her ₦5,000.
She looked at me and said,
“Aunty, the food in that pack yesterday is worth more than ₦5,000 ooh.”
Then she started calculating.
“The malt alone is ₦1,200 × 3 = ₦3,600.
Add rice and meat… that’s like ₦20,000.”
She refused to collect the 5k.
I told her to wait for me outside my gate.
She has been waiting since.
Walahi she will sleep there eh..

Let me illustrate something for you:
*Typical Mega Influencer Rate Card On X:
One post = 100K.
Shoutout= 500K (For some, you'll also have to add giveaway money, maybe 100K or so).
Roughly 600K.
Sir David will carry shoutout and give you free of charge. You will gain lots of followers, your visibility will skyrocket & yet, ordinary thank you will be too hard for you to say.
On top of that, you'll still take it for granted.
