NA ONE WAY SURE PASS, BUT...
Just
the other day, I heard a neighbour of mine complaining how things have been
difficult for him. He stated in clear terms that he can't even afford to
provide a meal how much more three-square meal for his family.
“Them
say na who wear shoe know how and where e dey pain am.”
I felt pity for him and had to encourage him
to be positive. But to my shock, he told that his mind was already made up to
do yahoo(fraud).
“Afterall any which way na way”, he said
The Miranda right quote got hold of me and
also kept me silent. I couldn't speak a word again as obviously anything I do
or say will be used against me. I thought I had seen it all until a fight
ensued last week in a cab I entered while going for a training session.
“Abi na you carry me come Port Harcourt come work? Abeg give me
my complete money before I change am for you ooo”, the driver hurled at a
passenger.
After much banter, the passenger's ego that we
thought to be bulletproof vested was shot to pieces and he paid. He angrily
brought out a 'herdsmen N50 note' that looked very much like the condition of
the country. He looked frustrated and downcast.
Realistically life is difficult in this
country, and it is no surprise people are doing everything possible just to
make ends meet. 'One way' has become the order of the day as people look for
shortcuts to success. For most people, the fast way is the best way. The driver
is ready to follow the wrong lane just to count enough trips to double his hustle.
“Na anywhere belle face nai be way o”
Your next door neighbour is ready to sell fake
goods just to as many as possible to put food on his/her table. The worst are
the market sellers that use configured cups to sell garri and rice in the
market. Thinking their injustice isn't enough; if you're not smart they will
use the bottom of the cup to measure and sell for you. Walai...they will not
make heaven. Their wickedness is something from the devil's evil
handbook.
Even the patient dog waiting for the fattest
bone is tired of waiting and is looking for his own one way. It's either he
bites me or you for survival. Tori don worwor. Chai!...now almost everybody on
social media is operating a ponzi scheme group business. You'll hear things
like
"Join my loom the fastest one o, bring N500 to get
self-contain"
Las las all na major scam! One way might be fast, but can lead
to long-term regrets and consequences. Don't forget that it's better to trust
in God because He makes everything beautiful in His time.
Love you all my contri pipo…
