They’re talking more about politics and less on commonsense economics
The good news about Nigeria is that life is never dull – there are always moments of drama and fun. The movement of the former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakir from the Peoples‘ Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Party (APC) has been described by Atiku as normal in Nigeria‘s political evolution.

People will form long lines of buckets with regular outbreaks of fights as each one desperately attempts to get water for their family use.
