You see, I’ve come to the conclusion that the only way one can be safe in a country like mine is to be wealthy, not rich but wealthy. And this isn’t so that you can be able to pay off your ransom when you get taken by kidnappers but this is so that you can pay the police off when they come to harass you.
A few days ago, I had just gotten off this commercial motorcycle when the driver noticed a bus that was parked not too far-away from my place.
“Na police be this, better run inside” he said in pidgin language to me which simply translates to “This is the police, it will be best for you to run inside”.
Y’all might be wondering why running inside was the first thought that came to both of our minds when we saw the people that are suppose to be protecting us. Well that is because the police force is now a huge business company, they arrest whoever they see without any reason and then they extort a huge sum of money from them after labeling you with a lot of crimes that you have no idea where they came from. Most of them even threaten to take you to a station located at an entirely different state, all in an attempt to force you to give them what they want, money.
Few minutes after I walked into my home, I saw a young man being dragged out by the police. The man shad only his boxer on as they shoved him into the bus they came with, no wealthy man will be treated this way, they will instead gently and quietly escort him to his own car while they follow him closely behind in theirs.
And this is why I’ve come to the conclusion that you have to be wealthy and famous too because celebrities gets preferential treatments when it comes to things like this.
