Nigeria is regarded as the greatest country in Africa it's argueably the most populated country and rich in many natural resources.the main natural resources being crude oil which is very abundant in commercial quantity.aside the crude oil there are other natural resources such as gold,coal and so on and so forth which are all in commercial quantities. Nigeria also has the richest economy in Africa.

Despite the large population and booming economy,the country has so many problem ravaging it's dignity. The system in which the country operating is unexplainable by anyone in the country. Surviving in Nigeria as a citizen is one of the greatest hassle of living being in the country.sometimes I begin to think if the country will ever be better than it is presently,I am very sure I am not the only person thinking this way as the situation of the country is becoming unbearable.i am sure the reason why people are still living in the country is because they have no choice.i am very sure if there is any slight means for anyone to live the country,he or she won't hesitate. One great problem that the country is facing today are,

CORRUPTION:Corruption has eaten deep into the system of Nigeria,in short corruption is a culture in Nigeria,it has become a way of life of the people.Virtually all the parastatals of the government are bathed with corruption,most of the funds which is meant for the public are been misused and diverted by the gullible politicians living the masses with little or nothing to live on. The citizens strive by all means available to meet their needs.

The youths are dambling into various kind of unpaying jobs just see that they survive.The issue of corruption is actually making living in Nigeria a hell because you work more than you earn. There is a slogan in Nigeria that says all means is means.this means that do anything doable as long as it will get you money.so many people complain about the poor standard of living in the country which the government refuse to yield to.

2 INFLATION. Inflation has been on the rise in the past years but this year it has become worst than ever,everyday dollar keep rising over naira which is the Nigerian currency.the citizens are faced with high cost of living with less money in circulation.The inflation problem in the country has actually changed the way of living of so many people.people are becoming more poor and rich continues to get richer.thing have actually gone from bad to worst but one thing is that the citizens are always very strong to withstand the harshness of the country.

More issues such as banditry and terrorism is killing the country in every ramifications.all of this and so many more are what the government has refuse to attend to.

So living in Nigeria is a very big task as you will have to face the sterness of the economy, everyone is doing anything doable to keep going.the level of poverty has made everybody to be wise.so many youths now indulge themselves in illegal activities such as cybercrime and fraud which has become very prevalent in the country.

My interaction with some of the youths has made me to understand that not all the really like the idea of doing things illegally but the count has left them with no choice.

My conclusion is that if anyone can survive in Nigeria then you can definitely survive anywhere in the world.To me Nigeria is the hardest country to live despite it abundance of natural resources and human power.
