Okay...........Now to the AVERAGE Nigerian....
I keep on ruminating on the reason behind the quest and lust for luxurious and exotic cars....is it the case that we allow our material possessions to define our essence? Or the quest to show the "other" that we are better is what constitutes the propelling force for this continuous acquisition of "goods" that have no direct bearing and impact on our lives in relation to the larger Nigerian society?
I was in a tricycle yesterday (popularly acclaimed as "Keke na pep"), and a Range Rover Sport drove past us like a whirlwind..... Instead of the "keke man" to be mindful of his well being having survived a "near-accident" scenario, he was swearing thus: "Chai!!!!! O boy...I must buy my own Range o...I must do wetin dis man do me so".......
Seriously???? Who does that?? Nigerians!...must we continue to be propelled by vengeance?? Wait sef o...is that one even vengeance or stupidity married with unscrupulous anger?????
Anyway.....just a thought from a Nigerian MIND.
