Demoncracy really destroy Africa
Kudos to Modern Russia and China
America doesn't care about Africa

It's almost impossible for Government to utilise %100 of its power under Democracy due to different Party jostling for Power through Divide & Rule
while Communism can easily run at %100 due to Unity of the whole Government to the better of the people

Demoncrazy indeed
Exactly , Democracy didn't even work for the Americans , why would it work in Nigeria. True word Mate!

The past looks better because you were not there.

Don't mind them. In those days we used to eat one small piece of meat per meal. Or 2 if lucky or on christmas day.

Today na ''assorted'' with orishirishi daily.

Back then, no phone for the masses or internet. If you needed to speak to someone or start a business or whatever, na Molue you go catch. 49 sitting 99 standing.

No guarantee that the person you're going to see will be there when you reach o! If he no dey, na back to rushing for Molue to head home.

No air-conditioned BRT service with in-built USB outlets o!

Who dash you that one?

These pampered youths of today could not survive 1970s or 1980s Nigeria.

God bless you for this quite insightful posts.

Whenever I see pictures of young varsity ladies back then looking so well clad, ordinary and barely sexy, I can't help but compare then with varsity ladies of now, with all of their flashy and seductive dresses. Omo, what a time we're in. The generational differences is very alarming.

So you too believe in reincarnation. Me too. Unlike others who think life's is terminal with either Heaven or Hell and that there's no such thing as the circle of life.

this is still time appropriate. You could take a pic of Hausa girls dressed just like this, in an environment just like this, today.

For anyone who is conversant with Ibadan, this area looks more of the street between Beere and Mapo Hill towards Oja Oba, Ibadan.

My thoughts too...

I have been there so i just felt same way seeing this pic
