OPINION: Reflections on the Tragedy of the Common: The Nigerian Reality

Dikko Wurma Muhammad
The common man in this country is one of the jinxed people on earth. From precolonial period to the present, his life has not really changed. He thinks the same; he sees everything from a primordial angle; tribalism; ethno-religious sentiments; compounded ignorance etc. In his livelihood, he still uses the hoe to harvest his crops that could never take him through the dry season. Everything about his life is crude; just like that of his great-grandparents.
