It sucks being a Nigerian
<p>Sometimes it hurts to be Nigerian.</p><p>You wake up every day and hustle with everything in you. You work hard, sacrifice sleep, miss meals, carry dreams bigger than your current reality, and still somehow things don’t go the way you imagined.</p><p>You plan.</p><p>You pray.</p><p>You push.</p><p>But at the end, reality hits differently.</p><p>I watched Ponzi and it made me sad, not just because it was a movie, but because it reflected the lives of so many Nigerians, especially the poor. People are not always looking for shortcuts because they are lazy. Sometimes they are just tired. Tired of struggling. Tired of hoping. Tired of doing everything right and still barely surviving.</p><p>The saddest part is knowing that so much could be better if the people meant to help actually cared. If the money meant for development was used well. If leadership remembered the people they were meant to serve.</p><p>It’s heartbreaking watching a nation full of hardworking, brilliant people keep fighting just to breathe.</p><p>Being Nigerian means carrying hope and heartbreak at the same time.</p><p style="text-align: center; "><strong>Majo♡! <a class="tc-blue" href="https://twocents.space/insights/tag/15">#15</a></strong></p>
