Common sense and not prayers would solve lawlessness- OAP, Yaw cries out

June 29,2018

By Patricia Uyeh

Popular On Air Personalily, Yaw, born Steve Onu, just every other concerned Nigerian, is pained by the rate of deaths in the country especially in the past week.

Following the recent tanker explosion in Lagos, he narrated his own experience to show that state of lawlessness in the country is very bad.

He recorded a trailer, without tyres in motion and then cried out at the lack of safety and the damages the tyre rings will cause on the road.
Yaw wrote :

“I don’t normally write like this but this is getting too much,

“Until the rotten tooth is pulled out the mouth will know no peace. The problem of our dear country is not for God to answer us but for everyone to do that which is right.

“I was driving home from the mainland and i saw this trailer driving without tyres, driving because he already knew that there’s always a way out (bribery) regardless of who’s enforcement agency is on the road not minding endangering not just his life but that of others.

“Nigeria is a quagmire of cankerworm of lawlessness that has deeply eaten into the system. Who do we blame?

“What is happening in Nigeria is as a result of indiscipline, lawlessness; corruption and non-standardization of laws.

“It has nothing to do with God’s punishment or prayers but for the right peg to be in the right hole.

“This disaster is as a result of our stupidity… Like @asiricomedy posted this morning,

“Most of the things we pray for in Nigeria are organizational anomalies. Prayers don’t solve that, Common sense will.”
