There have been reports of fights in the banks and gas stations across the country of Nigeria.
Videos of naked Nigerians begging for their hard-earned money inside banks have gone viral on WhatsApp.
Nigeria, a country that prides itself as the giant of Africa, is no longer a giant anymore.
The country is rather gargantuanly in serious anger and frustration as protest over naira note scarcity and petrol shortage ravages on.
“This is beyond sad. Of all the hardships we have experienced as Nigerians, we compare nothing to this.” A Nigerian told Godfrey Times via a chat.
“I am hungry!! Everything is more than what we will describe as hard.” a bureau de change Mallam told Godfrey Times via a WhatsApp call.
Are you a Nigerian in the diaspora, somewhere in Africa, or perhaps even in Nigeria? You want to know what happened in Nigeria today?
Oh, sorry! I forgot about the Western world. The Europeans.
Are you wondering, what is the news in Nigeria today?
