I don't know why,
But it takes forever for people to do anything here. Like for example, construction work takes super long, and then sometimes, you'll see a half-constructed building just sitting there for eternity without anyone working on it. I even have an example more personal than that. We're building a shop in the backyard backyard, so that we don't have to continue working on cars in our own compound; it piled up like crazy and one time I didn't even know where our own car was, and it was our yard! We have parking issues in our own front yard. Now that's bad. So that's why we're building a shop. We pay some people to build the roof for us right? We tell them that we'll pay them this much Naira for them to finish up the roof. They agree and all that...but they don't do the work! Every day they had asked for more and more money daily, even though they were supposed to get their pay when the job was done. So I think we fired them and we're doing it on our own. And then, only like a week ago, some people killed A COW in the back next to the still being built shop, and left the bones and everything still there! So now, when I walk my dog it's less of a walk and more of a "watch Shep eat the disgusting rotting bones for the rest of your life."
