The Thieves In Our Bus by Cantonese: 6:32pm On Oct 23, 2022 |
An employee received his salary and boarded a crowded bus back to his home, and there was a thief in the bus, so the theif stole the employee's money from his pocket. After the employee had reached his destination and the driver asked for the fare, the employee found nothing in his pocket, his face blushed and his tongue became heavy, so the driver said mockingly: Shame on you, you consider yourself a respected person while you can not afford your transport fare! Pride hit a potion of the thief's ego and he said to the mocking driver: My brother, the teacher's fare is on my me! The thief offered to help the teacher, his victim, not out of pity for the poor teacher but to buy from the other passengers their trust and confidence, and to use some of the stolen money to earn himself a respect before the rest of the passengers in the bus. The poor employee smiled and said to the thief: May God bless you and multiply your likes, sir! Then some of the passengers in the bus praised the thief, praised his kindness, and also prayed for him and that God should increase his kinds. Since then, the number of thieves has increased, and they still receive our thanks and appreciation; We are still on a bus where thieves rob us, and we thank them for their kindness. This is the metaphor of the state of our nation, Nigeria! Looking at what the politicians are campaigning with, and what their supporters are praising them for, one cannot do but say that: indeed, the victims of the thieves on our bus this year are supplus! The politicians rob us our education to send their children overseas to get standard education They rob us our peace but travel oversea to enjoy peace in another man's land. They give us death-traps as roads but fly in their expensive planes. They deny us electricity but buy themselves fuel to power their generators. They do all of this on the detriment of our collective comfort and rights, they equally weaponise poverty to bait us with the crumbs falling from their dining tables during election time. Our only means of having the feelings of what it feels like graduating from a standard institutions is when we see their children being celebrated on the social medias; we aren't even invited- who invites the downtroddens to feast?! While they do this, they save some of the stolen money from the national treasury and then share it among us to buy our consciences under the guise of helping the electorates and then some of the oppressed citizens praise them, thank them and celebrate them. This is the reason why the politicians who are stealing our money from our national treasury are increasing. No matter how big a politician gives in this Nigeria of today, he deserves no appreciation, what he deserves is to explain when he is going to return the rest of the money and then ask for forgiveness from the people they have stolen their all to buy themselves all of the comforts in another man's lands. The thieves in our bus are increasing all the time because we continue praising them for returning small from the plenty they steal from us. Happy Weekend to us all. 1 Like 1 Share |
