Do Animals Think Nigerians Are Weird? - Tekedia

A satirical essay uses animals in a Nigerian reserve to mock citizens and leaders who rationalize suffering.

It imagines a fictional town hall where wildlife debates whether Nigerians are truly “okay” amid hardship.

The piece skewers politicians, influencers, and ordinary defenders of the status quo for excusing poor governance.

It argues that public excuses and self-justifying leaders help normalize broken services, weak infrastructure, and economic pain.
