RELIGION & TRICKS

Nigeria is blessed, not just with abundant resources but also with himalayan number of believers of one religion or another.

Most of Nigeria's population are either Christians or Muslims but there lies the root of this write up. One can never be detailed with matter relating to religion in Nigeria and its effect on their believers.

The notion of people who are inclined to these aforementioned religions differ and their reasons for subscribing to a particular belief differ too.

Some are just born into one religion and as such they spend their whole life defending their birth rights, some convert to a religion for one reason or another but mostly marriage, greener pasture or peer influence.

Nigeria is a country where people become religious leaders with versed interests. A country where these leaders move their members to believing that God calls a particular few and the remaining many should follow them. A country where an individual can not have a conflicting opinion about a clergy without a corresponding backlash from another on the ground that the topic is about a "touch not". Nigeria is my country and I have nowhere else to write about.

TONI'S PARADOX

Image
I have this stuff in my mind that I am curious about, can you help me out?  I have this paradox that I can't seem to place. I will try as much as possible to paint you the picture of what I mean, translate the picture 📸 into a question then find me an answer.  There is this discombobulation about population that I can't seem to figure out. Please read attentively because you must help me out! 🙄 My case study is Nigeria 🇳🇬,  a country said to be about 200 million people, the most populous country in Africa. Nigeria 🇳🇬, a country renowned for its level of poverty, and at the same time for how industrious her citizens are. This population is said to be reducing, the "japa" wave and the mass exodus of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and of course the investors. When you visit Nigerian Immigration Service Offices in various states, you will encounter various applicants who are plotting their exit from this once great country, when ...
