Nelson Mandela said and I quote, “For to be free is not merely to cast off ones chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others”. Are we truly free?

Israel Victoria Whenever the citizens of Nigeria especially Families of the victims that lost their dear lives in the Inferno that occurred in the late hours of Thursday, the 28th of June 2018 hear the mention of the popular billionaires name 'Otedola', it won't be for familiarity but for sorrow and anguish.

Israel Victoria  Sigh! Nigeria, another day with another problem, we are all living with no hope for the future, everyone trying to figure out life on their own in a country with corrupt and self centered Leaders, no interest of their citizens at heart. The only thing still keeping our sanity is probably the music, celebrity paparazzi and the trolls on social media. Oh! did i forget to mention that our politicians and top security officials are now comedians too. Different drama everyday (read the news).
