A man advised tenants living in a compound where no one owns a car to move out once they are fortunate enough to purchase one. A comment in agreement responded, “First of all, the whole compound people will first accuse you of using their stars in the compound, then attacks—both physical and spiritual—will follow.”
This response reflects a common fear of envy and superstition in some communities. It suggests that success can be met with suspicion and hostility, often due to jealousy or insecurity. Rather than fostering division, it’s important to promote understanding and celebrate each other’s achievements without fear of backlash.
