Your Excellency,
RE: Nigeria's Slow But Steady Descent Into Chaos
Kindly allow me to paint this rather worrying picture for you.
Inaccessible road junctions, traffic at a standstill on most expressways, policemen and soldiers trying in vain to keep the peace at every petrol station, and citizens fighting each other as a result of being pushed to breaking point. Homes without light or water, businesses without staff, and an economy that is now officially going backwards.
This, your excellency is no ordinary picture. Rather it is the very grim reality of today's Nigeria - your Nigeria.
Walking past a petrol station earlier today I witnessed a bunch of individuals sarcastically chanting "change, change, change" as each stood over his small generator whilst waiting to buy petrol. Yes Sir, that's right - Nigeria's citizens now have no other option but to take their small generators to petrol stations!
Whilst this may seem a small incident I want to encourage you not to take it lightly in any way. Such chants being voiced by the very people that voted for you strongly suggests the average Nigerian has lost all confidence in your ability to move this nation forward.
