It’s because of slavery and colonialism
Nothing is working in Lagos state right now !! Absolutely nothing !! No light, no packing of refuse, everywhere is smelling !! What kind of rubbish is this for Christ sake! If you come and comment rubbish under this post, God will punish you!!🙏

No, it’s Africa Everything has to be rocket science Her only contribution to modern society is be a crybaby about slavery or whatever BS gimmick to justify her ineptness

Me with my kitchen drum!! 😂😂😂
Earlier this year, I bought a big drum and on getting home my wife was wondering why we needed one since we pay service charges for water. She didn’t know I was responding to trauma. Now anytime electricity is out for days and the house managers aren’t pumping water with generator on time, I usually tease her about how my decision to buy a big drum for water reservoir is a genius idea. That is how terrible this country has fvcked some of us up. If I travel abroad today my instinct will still be pushing me to buy drum. Imagine looking for market where they sell blue drum in Woolwich London UK.

Lol I’d argued that I don’t think some stereotypes about Africa (read: Nigeria) are false People in their Lagos - Lekki / VI / Ikoyi bubble will swear you’re just not African or Nigerian enough. These people have never been to Alimosho or know what goes on outside their Island..
So many areas haven’t had light in months. I love that it’s getting to the “rich” side of Lagos now and that’s why there’s so much noise.

bubble on a daily basis. Now, think the shitshow that is the other 30+ states in Nigeria and tell me if the stereotypes aren’t true. No electricity, no water, no internet; literally nothing. This being a regular Tuesday for the average Nigerian, mind you.

Same! I’m still very much a paper and pen person. Notion and the likes never worked for me
I learnt my best productivity hack from a podcast with a former JPMorgan CMO. I write all my tasks in a jotter and cross them out with a pen as I get them done. Looks archaic, but it works for me.

Do you understand how fucking sad and disgraceful it is that this country is 60 years old and we don’t get up to 5hours of electricity daily???? You fucking bastards.

It’s Black Lives Matter till it’s an African.

nothing much; just Africa casually being Africa
For a country with a massive shortage of ambulances, the number of campaign buses is ridiculous
