Survival of the fittest

We survived thereafter in Lagos with the kind of uncommon success that Nigerians often yearn for that very midas touch that many unfortunately never succeeded in garnering home in a lifetime.The secret of longevity sometimes can be satisfaction and achievement of lifetime goal and living a stress free life.To be candid Lagos is stressful and Lagos life is stressful but we survived it and if one cannot get a life line and a helper in Lagos or good jobs or good business one may find it hard like many to survive that is for those who lack the capacity thereafter in a lifetime lift .From the stress in housing , transportation,jobs down to career life the task of survival is highly demanding and you often ask yourself the role of the government and the private sector in granting relief and what type of relief do they need to grant to the working man?As we know a working man a stressful man and the stress that is killing the working man is not just the stress of work alone but extramaterial work stress related to peerage pressure,marital pressure,career pressure,mental and psychology pressure pressure that comes from alimony,health pressure, pressure from expenditures and allied emergencies not covered in the pension related matters.The poor man is often the target of many scams in the City as found elsewhere round the world and so you ask yourself how do folks especially Nigerian guys survive in this harsh terrains that seem so unsympathetic to their plight in general? When you look closely you found out why life expectancy is on the waning side.No one can deal with those pressures that comprise of the average social stress per capital without any social and economic safety net which we proposed in our non governmental organization.I don't understand and can't understand the truth and the animal spirit behind the survival of average Nigerians at home and in the diaspora.We agree that forty percentage  of Nigerians in the diaspora though educated can or have weathered the storm using the erudition to take advantage of robust white system that educated them and understandably so giving back to the system that insulated them but case at home is a potpourri of confusion and inconvenient incomprehension to the folktales of average cultural survival in Nigeria  or of any nation so deplorable.We can do nothing well in the country should the private sector arrangements is highly disgusting and lethargic to national arrangements.Nigerians cannot survive under their government if the private sector failed to device a befitting structure for their survival and that is just the gospel.To buttress my point I wrote a full a thousand paged novel on the American history how the private sector formed the united states' and had nothing to do with government a tale that is justifiably told in the era of colonial expansion with great Britain. A task in which a single schematic brilliance by a privilege provided by a private sector man called Alexander Hamilton did singlehandedly to propose and theorized a non existent territory into being through the slap and fortitude of his ideological authority propounded and proposed the united states' into being and then the same folktales are still being immitated and told several times worldwide . Private sector folks must actively intervene to arrest the onslaught in the rising decadence and depreciating standard of living of the people.Surprisingly they complained a lot saying they can not do it why Dangotes ,otedolas,adelekes are expanding in the energy sector.The challenge of energy insecurities been tackled by some concerned Nigerians is being frustrated by the same Nigerians in another perspective than we could hardly imagine especially those importers of petroleum who refused buy products from dangote claiming it a monopoly and preferred to earn dollars instead.It s a very confusing situation and I blame the private sector not being able to run companies well and don't let any one deceive you the support of Nigerian government though certainly discouraging cannot change and I think all governments of the world are the same and they have a way to often silence the people.However it does not stop the most appropriate channel for egalitarian spirit to find their own way in contributing their quota towards the survival of their people.If we fail to produce a sensitive private sector men to take the challenge of better life in Nigeria seriously as mere service to humanity then the rising decline of living standard might persist into distant posterity.Even after the spate of some enabling environment were created still the lazy private sector fail to take advantage and we might be surprised to uncover how much lazier they were to be the main perpetrator behind the rots in government from corruption to nepotism down to fraud and forgery and tribalism,you name it ,they were caused by the private sector.They were often started by a private sector who later became degenerative class of politicians from the hoods rose into quarters of political power to become the worst perpetrators of serious economic ills and depreciating quagmire of living standard we experimented and experienced till date .Only few make a difference like the awolowos ,the Soyinkas and asabias of this world in the 👂 early republic transforming arts, business and politics and it must be sustainable.We hope the trends by Dangotes, otedolas and adelekes set in the energy industries persist into distant posterity.We have to recreate, identify the true identity of the private sector to be able to regenerate and redefine the workable model for them to progressively participate in the growth of development not retrogressive mode of development.Let me repeat it again the evils of government and the evils in government cannot be altered and they don't seem to care.Until we have a united front in the private sector,any effort at sustainable economic development it might not last .
