The frustrations of an NYSC official – By Israel Mark Ademola

Nigeria is a country that boosts of a large quantity of very frustrated people. I’m a member of this association and so are you. But why are we frustrated? Let’s look at it this way: You wake up in morning, wanted to take your bath but the tap is not running. You managed to get water from a nearby well, good for you. You remembered you need to press your clothes but alas! There’s no light. In fact, you’ve not seen your bulb lit for some days, yet you pay your bills. It’s only fair you get the service you paid for, but of course that word ‘fair’ does not exist. We deleted it from our national dictionary.

Whose Job is it to Clean Up This Mess? By Israel Mark Ademola

It’s funny how Nigerians make excuses for their leaders, or should i say rulers? Well, either way, these are the people we have entrusted our common wealth, our national cake if you like. Some of my friends see me as an unrepentant critic of the present administration, i must confess that this is pretty flattering. To others, i’m just one hell of a guy that can never see anything good in a ‘performing’ President no matter how much he (the president) tries.
