“Dec 5 2018
Life sha!!!!!!!
On that day I just returned from Yaba market where I went to buy a few thrift, second hand clothes AKA Okirika for my children.
It was Christmas time and I didn’t have the funds to buy good quality new clothes for them, so I had to settle for okirika.
I was among those that used to okirika is better than new clothes because it has quality, little did I know it was p0verty speaking through me, because tell me how used is better than new.
Right now, we are tearing off labels almost every week.
When it comes to understanding the struggles of an average Nigerian trust me, I understand it 💯, so when I tell you, your condition is not your final bus stop please believe me”.
