Nigerian women are very industrious and committed to whatever they do. You can hardly ever move around the Lagos and Abuja Metropolis without seeing these kind of women who have decided to earn a living from very energy sapping tasks majorly embarked on by the male folks. They’re always daring to engage in Jobs that require muscular flexings.
I really felt amazed when I saw this Woman who commuted her passengers via Tricycle, popularly known as keke around the axis of Mainland, Lagos. See the way she treated her passengers with courtesy and polite customer Services unlike the male folk transporters, who would insult you after boarding their buses and still not give you your full cash balances after payments. Very annoying set of people.
I was a Vehicle far off from where I took these shots. I would have encouraged this lady in cash as gift for her hard work.
Let us encourage Women in our World today. They deserve to be encouraged, I don’t mean oloshos please.
I have always dreamt of a World of Love, Unity and Progress in my formative times. I grew up in a very humble background where one Man’s Property virtually belonged to all. We cared and had respect.
I remembered my Father’s benevolent gestures to his kinsmen when I was growing up. I emulated such, as though accepted by the Christian practices. I remembered how my Father single handedly paid school fees of some students back then who couldn’t afford their fees. Helping one another was a culture practised in the times. No cost was involved, nor stress attached.
Everything has changed now in our robotic, cyber, android and Swagger conscious driven world. Nothing goes for nothing. Everything has become monetised or special benefits attached.
My Brother shared a story with me on how he got his car stocked on a pothole somewhere around Ikeja. He was stranded, after a while, three men came to his rescue. They pushed the Motor car out from where the car was grinded. My Brother appreciated by giving them N500 a token atleast for their inconveniences. To his amazement, one of them cried ”Oga, this one no go reach o, we bethree here and where we dey stay far, well,well”. My Brother had to plead with them before they accepted. That’s crude and cruel. No one wants to help without the mindset of having something back in turn. Very bad.
This has also bitten and eaten into our relationships. Some Men want to have a royal rumble before helping our female folks. Very bad.
Another very annoying behavior of selfish people is this; I have also noticed recently, that once a friend that hardly calls rings your Phone, the next thing is ”kai, o boy, na God just say make I call you so, after all my good friends don fail me, I know say u no go fail me, one keke scratch my car yesterday for traffic, LASTMA sef come arrest me, as I reach house, my wife come dey Labour”. They don’t care about your own welfare. This tactic is used by our fake pastors.
Let us make the world a better place. The World wasn’t made for ME, but for YOU and I. Cheers to Happy World.
