David Hundeyin #ADVOCATE4GOODGOVERNMENT# 10 yrs ago, except North Africa and South Africa the country, most African cities looked about the same in terms of development. In the last 3-5 yrs so many have changed so much! I'm now both ashamed and scared for Nigeria! It's extremely worrying!

I'm extremely good friends with Wode Maya and Tayo Aina whose work tells positive stories about Africa.

My work seems to do the opposite, but what they and I understand is that we are all on the same side. They're the good cop, I'm the bad cop.

We all love this continent.

David puts things into perspective for you to understand why it is important to hate the current political.

It gives you an insight into their minds and what they think of you. It’s not a mistake Nigeria is suffering but it’s by design.

They might be illiterate but they’re

Lol. In 1979 one of the top military government officials, can't remember who, said 'it is not the intention of the government for every Tom, Dick and Harry to own a car' or something to that effect.

As Minister for Communications in 1989, Col. David Alechenu Mark, known today as Senator David Mark said that NITEL would disconnect the lines of its debtors, that they could not claim they were too poor to settle their bills. Poor people, he added, didn’t own telephones

If you wonder why I detest the social class I was born into so much, consider the following 2 scenarios:

It's 1987, and my dad is sitting in on a meeting involving Mike Akhigbe, MKO Abiola, and a few other big names of the time. MKO needs to speak to someone urgently, so he

As long as the average Nigerian can point to someone that he's doing better than, he's fine.
I have never understood it.
It just gets amplified when they then have money enough to consider themselves 'elite'.

David Hundeyin When the professor buys the 20yr scrap he will come to school and start disturbing all the small girls and maltreat the young boys.

All of them small in their brains.

I wouldn't expect you to know any more than I would expect a cow that has lived all its life in a wooden barn to know about the wonders of electricity and concrete houses.

It would make just as little sense to insult you as it would to mock the cow. You know only what you know.

This is exactly how Nigeria's elite want Nigerians to be - bedraggled and destitute to the point where a vehicle that would be sold for scrap in America costs 1,000x the monthly minimum wage in Nigeria, and is out of reach to educated, middle-class professionals.

Then whoever

David Hundeyin I've known about this for a while, I have a brother in NCAA that told me about the rot going on in that NCAA the worst is air force aircraft, they don't do the regular maintenance for their aircraft, and a lot of revenues are claimed by making them certify them worthy of flight

David Hundeyin There're plenty companies NCAA gave PNCF to operate non commercial whereas NCAA is aware that those aeroplanes are used for charter. Executive Jets is the biggest of them. Sometime ago I got the previous PNCF & conditions given to Execujet. The new one should not be different

David Hundeyin That is why you will see someone's living room and family lounge painted like a kaleidoscope, throne chairs, office chairs, sofas and recliners in one sitting room, 2023 Benzes and BMWs parked on cracked oil stained concrete floors next to soot covered generator houses.

To address the second to the last paragraph, NOT ONE THING would have happened if he had died.

The Chief of Army Staff died in a plane crash and nothing happened.
The Chief of Staff to the President (and the country's unofficial Prime Minister at the time) died like a nobodyd

My job shows me this level of fuckery that goes on everyday in Naij but for it to be going on in ‘critical’ industries is crazyyy. How much does a man’s life cost?
