My Country Nigeria Is Useless - Charmie

A post showing Lagos residents with their belongings scattered outside after a government-led demolition sparked a comment stating, “Omo this country is useless.” This reflects the frustration many Nigerians feel when witnessing such incidents. Demolitions, often tied to urban development or land disputes, can leave people suddenly homeless and helpless, with little to no support or compensation. For the affected, it’s a harsh reminder of the instability that can accompany living in certain parts of the country.

However, labeling the entire country as “useless” oversimplifies the issue. While government actions can be criticized for lacking compassion or planning, progress comes from constructive dialogue and pushing for better policies. Broad negative statements ignore the complexities and resilience of those working towards change.
