Instagram user, @miss_titilayomi, has shared the sad story of how she
found the corpse of a man on the road and no government official
attempted to remove it. Sharing the photo above on her IG page, she
wrote;Saw this man lying on the side of the road while on my way home
from work. Must be exhausted I thought, definitely doesn’t have a home
for an afternoon nap...What a pity! Until I looked closer...He’s dead!
Why is he not breathing?! I call the attention of a LASTMA Officer who
was mindlessly controlling traffic. Please check that man, I urged.
‘Madam he don die o, na so I dey here since morning, him never move’.
Mouth agape, so many questions, none voiced. ‘Ah madam e dey happen like
that, na so they just fall dan die like that’. By they, I’m sure he
referred to the homeless, the mentally challenged, the less
privileged.What struck me about this scene was the presence of a
presidential campaign poster for the current government just inches away
from the deceased. ‘Progress’ it read.I looked at the lifeless body
once more, flies parading his body, ants all over his face...even in
death he’s still ignored. #temporarypost #prayforNigeria
