A NATION CALLED PANIC!

How can you spend 1 grand from Berger to Ketu? The woman beside me asked her friend while on a commuter Bus to Lagos island. I shook my head in despair as i try to fathom why this happens every end of the year in a land with massive fossil fuel deposit- and about 2.5 million barrels of oil per-day!

Christmas is the season that unite the long lost, brings back hopes and connects friends with foes. In an over-watch controlled Capitalist Nation, the reverse is the case. This is the season where things get tougher and harsher on the masses despite the joy the season has brought to the World.

We live in Affluence but suffer, we are rich but stricken with Poverty. An irony of life, a nation in despair where the citizens panic as each day comes with it's own mystries, where do our help come from? From overseas, from Neighbouring countries?

This is a dilema to every developing region, how to manage it's resources with the influence of foriegn powers and their master minds games. In this situations, only the enlightened; the ones that had been liberated from the Blockchain would remain free from the clutches of the Overwatched controlled Government.

The unorientated ones, the one yet to be empowered by the Blockchain "panics" at the decline in the level of good living, the hike in fuel prices, the poor states of housing and the degradation in basic amenities etc.

A nation under panic attack would only be liberated from the slavery of politics and capitalism through Steemit's "PROJECT20MILLIONNAIJA"

Every year the same drama plays out.
Fuel scarcity
Insane hike in cost of fuel + transportation
It always happen when people move the most (during Christmas)
Doesn't it look as if it being engineered by some group of greedy blokes out to make a quick buck? Dang.
2018 December would be no different; unless something is done.

You are on point mate, this is the time they mastermind and syphooned huge cash from the Nations purse.

I'm happy for blockchain. One day government would be decentralised 💯✌️

I'll bet Gilbert Chagoury is having a Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas and a peaceful and blessed new year to you my old friend!!!

Hahahaha,

Thanks Ol Richie, have a merry Christmas.

Excellent writing, thanks for great sharing

We live in Affluence but suffer, we are rich but stricken with Poverty.

This line caught my attention, I still don't know why these things happen. What could probably be the cause?.And the Government is not even making anything better.

They are the architect of this misfortune

The increase is just too much
Not only in the transport fare,hold up too.

If i reflect on my experience of it i might just cry.
Thank God i came home successfully tho

Welcome home, The city has been a mess

Awesome writing and nice post. The fuel hike is mad, imagine 210 per liter. Transportation from oshodi to ajah 800 naira dis is madness. I am trying to ignore all thanks to steemit .

Ouch, sorry my friend...Uber doubled there fees; 18k to Iyana Iba

Imagine, a friend told me he called up one Uber driver and the guy was asking for 5litres petrol at the rate of 200naira per litre. It is crazy

Hahahaha, very funny

You are doing a good job buddy. Best of Luck on Steemit. Steemit is rising in Nigeria

Thanks my friend

Wow your picture looked like black friday at Walmart!

Hahahaha, sure looks like a panic set of people
