1. My people & their 'drug empire'! We make it overseas, mainly in Asia; return home to buy cars, lodge in hotels, lorry load of women, build houses etc. We call it 'ego mbute' 'eriwe agwu-agwu'. What many do not know are the tales of sorrow, pain & blood behind it. Many arrested
2. with long sentences or executed. Victims who get hooked on the drugs & their lives ruined. Drug gangs who unleash mayhem leaving behind pool of blood. We now see stories going viral of peddlers using their fellow Nigerians as collateral (most times the human collaterals don't
3. even know they are being used). It has become a normal thing; get rich or die trying. If you speak against it, they will blame government & talk further they will attack & call you efulefu. You travel to some asian countries & try to rent an apartment/hotel for a few days
4. and once you show your Nigerian passport, 'no...No Nigerians allowed'. Not so long ago we saw the video from South Africa where a man killed his cousin in cold blood with a brick because of a deal gone bad. What was shocking in the video was how people gathered watching
5. you could tell this was normal to them. I can still remember the Ozobulu massacre; a deal gone wrong in the same south africa leading to the slaughter of church goers in Nigeria. That case seems to have died a mysterious death. I wasn't expecting anything from it, by the way

7. silent. You got only two choices; shut up or take their side.

The venomous snake we are breeding will turn around to sting us .
