Why do Nigerians seem to have this constant urge to politicize every sphere they find themselves in? Why is there always a NEED to establish some sort of hierarchy, no matter the setting? Whether it’s a workplace, a social gathering, a COMMUNITY group, or even an informal friendship circle, there’s always a push to create ranks, titles, and positions of power; sometimes even jokingly, with nicknames like “President” or “Chairman.” Is it a cultural instinct? A subconscious reflection of the political environment? Or simply a deep-seated desire for structure and influence? It’s fascinating how, even in the most trivial situations, there’s always someone trying to claim authority while others fall in line, knowingly or unknowingly. Is it about leadership, control, or just an ingrained habit of turning every space into a microcosm of Nigerian society?
