While Nigerian new Nike jersey goes for £67, and the company has sold over 3million pieces already and people are still queuing up in Oxford street to buy more, a Nigerian author wrote a book on how we can develop our nation and ourselves, sold for £10, nobody asks what he is selling. He reduced the price to £5, nobody even look his side. He said he will give one of the book free if you buy the other one, yet nobody buys. 😔 sad.
Now let me do analysis of the new kit for you.
Thanks to Nike who presented the jagajaga state of our country in our national colour.
The jersey comes with three colours: green, white and black. While the first two are our national colour, the third is universal colour which van be used by any country. The colour is not where the story is hidden, rather it is in the pattern.
A nation is going to World Cup with zigzagged, "electrocuted" pattern and nobody raises an eyebrow? Our unity and peace, represented by the white colour zigzagged, aptly portraying the state of the nation's security of lives and property: bokoharam, Benue herdsmen and the massacre, Political thuggery, militancy in the south south. Our peace of mind is zigzagged too: with a codine and tramadol destroyed generation of science students for our youth. They are the victim of astralobogulous public stealing.
Our proud identity, the green colour of our national flag is zigzagged too. These whites got no chill. They tell it the way it is. Our agriculture is in moribund, and someone with electrocuted mind recently signed off his people to be used as guinea pigs for GMOs testing. Why not? We are the most sufferness-enduring species of home sapien ever. If Nigerian are in hell, they will still smile and exchange pleasantries.
Do I need to tell you why our crude oil, represented with that black colour is zigzagged too? I guess not. For even in hell hole we are, I will still exchange logical complement with you. A nation that boasts of third best petroleum in the world cannot refine it's own PMS for domestic use.

Meanwhile, here is another cool design for the team by a patriotic Nigerian guy, which we could have used. It will cut cost, encourage local content, employ many of the so called lazy youths and generate money for the country, but no. We don't do things that way. Our government prefer to be wasteful because it is in wastage that the cankerworm of corruption feeds fat.

You can call me a wailer, but know that wailing is at this point necessary, for wailing is the ideal thing expected in hell. Nobody lives in hell and hail, except of course, a zigzagged mind on ten shots of political codine and tramadol everyday.
Peace out.
