After Nigeria’s First Lady shared account details to be credited, an actor reacted jokingly with: “lemme send my account is now legitimized.” The post quickly drew a wave of reactions, but one comment captured public frustration: “even animal kingdom dey learn work here. Animal kingdom organize pass us here, heaven knows.” The remark reflects citizens’ disappointment in leadership, suggesting governance is more chaotic than the natural order of animals. However, while the frustration is valid, comparing Nigerians to animals undermines the seriousness of the issue. We can address failures in governance with constructive criticism, without demeaning ourselves.
