Money
Stops
Nonsense

-
Spending

So
 much
 money,
 the
 problem’s
 how
 to
 spend
it.
I
heard
that
in
the
70s,
Shagari
 also
said
this.
One
of
the
most
dangerous
 thoughts
 in
 Nigeria.
 I
 know
 you’re
 thinking
 ‘“Ta!
 Keep
 kwayet
 there,
 soup
 wey
sweet,
na
money
kill
am.”
But
hear
 me
out.
You
cannot
stop
nonsense
when
 you
have
spent
everything. We’ve
 worshipped
 money
 for
 so
 long
 in
 Nigeria
 that
 we’ve
 forgotten
it’s
true
purpose:
an
exchange
for
the
necessities
and
 comforts
of
life—
physical
items,
peace
of
mind,
food,
good
 health
 and
 more.
 If
 COVID
 hasn’t
 taught
 us
 anything,
 it
 has
 shown
that
las
las,
everyman
for
himself.
Can
you
imagine
a
 world
where
a
VIP
like
Abba
Kyari
could
not
be
flown
abroad,
or
 even
former
Oyo
state
governor?
Everyone
has
locked
up.
If
 you
are
not
producing
within
your
own
country,
OYO
is
ya
case.
 The
 richest
 countries
 in
 the
 world—–America,
 China,
 UK,
 Germany—are
rich
because
(apart
from
colonialism
and
slave
 trade)
they
produce
goods/services
that
can
be
exchanged
for
 money.
 This
 is
 how
 they
 have
 built
 their
 wealth.
 We
 MUST
 produce
the
things
we
need.To
get
money,
we
must
produce
 valuable
goods,
which
we
can
exchange
for
it.

You
would
have
heard
the
phrases
“FX
crises”,
“dollar
has
gone
 up”,
“devaluation”.
Big
English.
But
really
what
the
economy
is

asking
in
the
famous
words
of
Daddy
Showkey
is
“wetin
you
 get?”
to
which
he
also
answers,you
no
get
nothing”.
The
Naira
is
 only
worth
what
is
produced
in
the
country—in
our
case,
oil.
 Which
 is
 why
 when
 oil
 clears
 throat,
 we
 catch
 cold.
 If
 we
 import/export
nothing,
our
Naira
won’t
even
need
an
exchange
 rate.
If
the
government
gives
everyone
N1m
each
to
live
their
 lives
forever,
without
helping
the
economy
get
back
on
its
feet,
 our
country
will
still
be
in
trouble.
Money
is
worth
less
in
Nigeria
 because
we
have
nothing
to
return
in
exchange
and
we
have
 failed
as
a
collective
to
look
inwards.

Making
things
in
Nigeria
is
no
less
important
than
fighting
for
 independence—
buying
things
made
in
Nigeria
is
fighting
to
be
 free.
 I
 would
 like
 to
 shade
 the
 government,
 but
 not
 today.
 Instead,
 I
 encourage
 you,
 brethren
 and
 sistren,
 to
 start
 demanding
more
locally
produced
goods;
Aba,
Kano,
Ogun,
 Benue,
Lagos,
Oyo,
all
have
production
systems
that
should
be
 encouraged.
 Shalla
 to
 Ekiti
 state
 for
 creating
 an
 enabling
 environment.
That’s
an
example
of
the
government
doing
what
 they
should
do.

Let’s
not
consume
our
way
to
penury
or
 regulate
 our
 nation
 into
 poverty.
 Instead,
 let
 us
 educate
 our
 workforce,
 equip
 our
 entrepreneurs
 and
 pressure
 the
 government
 to
 do
 the
 needful
 (the
 right
one,
not
the
other
kind). In
the
spirit
of
consuming
local,
we
have
compiled
a
list
of
 small
businesses
that
are
pushing
boundaries
and
asking
 us
to
consume
local. List
of
small
businesses
