I wish I Wasn’t Born In Nigeria - Iyobo

In response to Jaywon’s post about the devaluation of the Naira, one controversial comment read, “Sometimes I wish I wasn’t born here.” This statement reflects the deep frustration many Nigerians feel about the current economic situation and the challenges facing the country.

While it’s understandable to feel disheartened during difficult times, such expressions also highlight the growing sense of disillusionment among citizens. However, it’s essential to balance these feelings with hope and a proactive mindset. Rather than feeling trapped by circumstances, channeling energy into community-building, advocating for change, and staying informed about opportunities can help in navigating these tough moments. Change is possible, but it requires collective effort and a resilient spirit.
