SAD BUT TRUE 😢

Akara and Pap was breakfast served every morning in a hostel of 100 people.

Out of the 100, 80 didn’t like it. They complained daily, saying they were tired and wanted something different.
But the remaining 20 were satisfied. They liked it just as it was.

To solve the issue, the warden introduced a simple rule: Every night, everyone would vote for what they wanted to eat the next morning. The meal with the highest number of votes would be served.

So every night, the 20 who loved Akara and Pap voted for it—with one voice.
But the 80 who didn’t like it were never united. Their votes went in different directions:

18 for Bread and Tea

16 for Yam and Egg Sauce

14 for Jollof Rice

12 for Spaghetti

10 for Indomie

10 for Moi Moi and Pap

Can u guess what the result was every single time?
Akara and Pap kept winning, Not because it was the best, but because the people who didn’t want it were too divided to agree on anything else.

In Nigeria, many are tired of the same old hardship, bad governance and recycled leadership.
We know who and what the real problems are.
But even those who want change are divided—along tribal lines, party names, personal interest, ego, ambition etc.

2027 might seem far away, but it's already around the corner. If we don’t learn from this story, we will wake up again to another bitter round of the same ā€œmealā€ we’ve been served for ages.

This Is a Salient Message
THERE'S POWER IN UNITY, NOT JUST IN NUMBERS.

A United Minority Is More Formidable Than A Divided Majority.

Those who want change must change their discordant tunes if change is to happen.
