I feel Nigeria is one of the funniest countries in the world. I have noticed that we usually leave things that are important to attend to things that are not very important. At the same time, the government always make sure that it blocks every opportunity that the citizens may get to live well. They block those opportunities and just let people suffer. This is why we see young boys and girls engage in criminal activities like robbery, online fraud and so much more. They feel they don't have a choice even when they do and all they could do is engage in those activities.
Let's throw it back to February 2021 when cryptocurrency was banned in Nigeria. This affected a lot of people and their funds got locked in some banks. I also got affected because my account was closed by my bank when they realized that I was making cryptocurrency transactions. For some years now, I have been feeding myself with the money I am making from cryptocurrency so why won't I stick to it. It is so loud and clear that the government know that we can make money or earn a living from cryptocurrency but I feel they just want to punish us by placing a ban on cryptocurrency.
Well, I'm glad that smart citizens like us are still making use of cryptocurrency and I even prefer to save in cryptocurrency than to save money in my bank account. Even with the fact that cryptocurrency has been banned, I'm glad that we are still finding our way to make money from it. Imagine placing a ban on something that we can make money from. Isn't that insane? The government in my country is somewhat else but if I am opportune to lift the ban on a particular thing, I will lift the ban on cryptocurrency.
Let's move on to what I want us to ban. I am a fanatic of soda drinks even when I know that it is very bad for our health but luckily, I have been able to stay away from it for sometime now. I think the last time I had a soda drink was three weeks ago. Would you believe me if I say that some people drink soda more than they drink water. How on earth would you prefer soda to water? We all know that soda is not very good for the health and water is the best but some people still prefer to drink soda. Well, it is funny and I'm not surprised because I used to be like that.
What can soda do to your health? It causes a lot of damage to the health and that is why I am trying hard to avoid it and I think I'm becomjng successful. Drinking soda causes weight gain, obesity, fatty liver disease, type2 diabetes, cancer and risk of heart disease. A lot of us know this but we take soda everyday. You will even see some people who take about 500cl soda in a day. That's too much and it is one of thw fastest selling things in Nigeria. That's funny...lol and some people cannot even eat withiut soda. That's how bad some people are addicted to it.
I wish I could just place a ban on soda drink because people need to stay healthy.
