The best chance Nigeria has for sustained agitations for reforms is a united middle class willing and ready to cripple national economic activity to compel changes.

But the Nigerian middle class is actually too small, too undereducated, and too self-satisfied to agitate for now.

The Nigerian middle class has to learn more, think more, and then teach more.

Most importantly, we need to learn more about sociopolitical equality: Equality irrespective of sex, economic class, political status, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, disability, etc.

The root of our inability as a middle class to compel sustained change for the benefit of all Nigerians is our subtle acceptance of social inequalities as a norm.

This is why many of us still refuse to understand that a #lockdown can literally mean starvation to other Nigerians.

We must understand that Nigeria as it is currently structured only works for the political class all the time, for the middle class some of the time, but never for the majority.

Eventually, if we don't trigger a process of change, it will blow up in our self-satisfied faces.
