RE: Where Should You Draw the Line for Survival?

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

While I can't condone the criminal activities you mentioned, I can understand the motivations. When faced with the choice between breaking the law or potentially starving or becoming homeless, I imagine many people would feel like they have no other option. It's a tough situation, for sure.

I hope that the Nigerian government and other stakeholders can work to address the root causes of these problems – things like lack of job opportunities, affordable housing, and effective regulation.

If people had more access to legitimate ways to support themselves and their families, maybe they wouldn't feel so desperate to resort to shady tactics.

You're right. Most times in life, the need to survive mostly outweighs everything in life. What people do to survive is often unthinkable, but it's probably life and it's what it is. At the end of the day, we just justify anything with the fact that it was survival instincts. As for the Nigerian government. It's a pity. The country will not get better with the people we're constantly voting, and this is why this country might just remain the same.
