Privilege Beast (Excepts from “The Scheme and the Scam.”)

Privilege Beast (From the Excepts, "The Scheme and the Scam.")

Welcome to Africa, the land of hope and progress, of greedy and unpatriotic, unapologetically proudly placed personalities. In this context and generalization, I dare not remove my naked-self. The attention to experience and intentions to describe them are my central qualities. This really qualified the ghostly unseen me. I’m dead if I tell you— that, this life is fair, or —all people are nice, or— friends won’t turn enemy one day, or— things will remain the same forever. Really, that imaginations are unbeatable!

 

I was told that NYSC is the only means to serve this country and bring about a decently-close united and progressive state. Nysc! And people, young educated graduates with bright future believe that? I mean, you actually bought that with your intelligence hanging behind your back and your roofed sense of reasoning still active? How can that be? When the constitution of this country doesn’t preach unity neither is the political system. I could’ve said otherwise but, com’on, this is Nigeria and everyone is either a potential criminal, or an opportune rogue. Everything about us lies in few.

 

My name is Okoroji Chidiebere Alexander and I can boldly tell you that the Nigeria of your dream is a bullshit. A smelling bullshit! Like when I say that the incompetence of the President and his Cabals are smelling, that’s what it means to say there is no dream in Nigeria. Someone is a privilege beast and he is making others suffer— live in misery and pain and, we fold our hands and do nothng. How can we sit and do nothing, while our country rot, is it because we share differs opinions about some certain things in our political structure? Then we neglect our welfarism? Thereby enduring suffering while smiling. Oh! We like enjoying the daylight suffering, I forgot, pardon my stupidity. How can we be so stupid to even think there isn’t a solution? How dare the politicians unite against the people and inflict pains on us? How dare the President live larger than the old widow in the village without necessities of life? Without a lifeline! How dare the Governors neglects us and our so called Senators and Representative and LGA Chairmen-women do same? Why can’t we demand for accountability? Demand for equal right and justice! Demand to take our country back from old men! Why? Why are we so foolish in this country!

 

Let me proceed; I can’t forgot most of my sad experiences in Nigeria. Although, I’m forever grateful for few who accepted my curiosity and help me in my anxiety as I overcome my fears. In my wondrous excitements, I realized that my last minutes stay will end up becoming so unobtrusive. This is the feeling! The only reason to see from within, from some sets of psychos’ and their acts of niggardliness. And some occupants, mostly a retard avaricious personalities, a completely attributed stunod will disrespect me with so much impunity and pomposity. But this is the class and norms which represent a highly inductive-reasoning from a post-positivist. I mean a stupid person.

 

Someone who is reading this will be asking what is this one saying. Okay! You got me there! I’m saying nonsense! No sense at all!! I am trying to pour out my frustrations and disappointment about life, so you feel what I felt. About living, probably, I’m thinking differently now, and I am like, oh fuck it, we dumb and I’m deaf and stubborn like the fly, I might end up badly; and I’m suppose to be scared. Okay sorry, somebody should know that we have privilege beasts, I mean those who didn’t merit the post they are occupying. Those who are unopposed, or who rigged and bribed themselves or way to the position they presently occupies and instead of being nice to people and treat everyone fair, NO! they rather create enemies instead of friends, although, most of their enemies are those who tries to speak against their atrocities and evil policies and decisions. Gosh! For how long must we tolerate privilege beasts and accommodate them as if they are not one of us. How long? I can wait if I know the duration it will take us to dispose them to exactly where they should be; floor members. I can wait only if they can be demoted. But when we don’t speak out, agitate and stand our grounds, how can that difference come to existence?

 

“Our gods are stupid says the Whitemen who are creamy in colour against the black people the called Blacks to differentiate us from them”.

 

Before I end this, I just want to say that, some days in life we make decisions because we want to be safe and preserve life so preciously giving with love and kindness. If this is what Africa is proud of, Privilege beast in our country, offices, schools, medicals, transports, power, courts etc. Should continue to oppress and suppress us, divide us further, then we should be proud of our suffering and pains, so plain and simple. Just be proud of life, nothing more— while all the pains be endured. My million dreams dies and my precious youthful life wasted with hustling and restlessness. I pity myself, you and I can’t pity less.

 

This isn’t an article or any sort of write up, (your thinking tho). This is just me writing or pouring my feelings out and like I said, my frustrations and anger. That we as a nation/citizens of Nigeria accepted a President without certificate, Criminals who are having cases of fraud with EFCC Senators and so on and so on, all in the name of tribal and religion politics and grounds. Gosh! I’m sad! But I will be fine! Is just a moment in time and it will pass.
