Addendum.
We engage policy of Educational Disadvantage, implementing same, but fail to implement Principle of Federal Character in appointments, even though it's enshrined in the 1999 constitution.
In effect, a certain section of Nigeria is put in perpetual advantage of others.

Funny story with underlying life's lessons.
During my NYSC in Ondo town, I had this girlfriend Funke (not her real name), a fellow corp member, who was generally doing the motherly duties for me & 3 of my fellow corper friends. She was cooking & taking care of us.
Short thread.
Funke's folks stayed in Lagos, while I & my friends had our stations in Delta, Edo & South East. Life in NYSC was pretty tough (like it is today). The 'alawee' then as at now, couldn't do much for us, so we depended on stipends from home (whenever it came), & Funke's magnanimity.
She used to visit home (Lagos), every Thursday or Friday (or so she said), and come back on Sunday, bringing back needed foodstuffs (palliatives) and cash, for her gang (us 😊). Our survival basically depended on this her benevolence and affection for me.

That Nigeria is hard is an understatement. I've seen hitherto very wealthy persons about a decade ago, struggling to survive today. Folks who lived upper middle class life, barely managing to exist. They're no safety nests, no consistency in policies to enable planning, NOTHING!
I've a friend who lost N220 million a couple of years back, to a distressed mortgage bank. He battled suicidal thoughts. Another friend lost heavily in the stock market crash of 2012, & left for Canada with his family. He said, if he remained there, he said, he would've died.
Is this the reason why people that find themselves in public office over-steal? Can they be hedging the risks of uncertainties in the future? The business environment is so volatile that one can lose his life's savings in one day of encounter with numerous scammers on the prowl.
