Information can make you look smart, keep your friends,make you popular but at what cost do we get information nowadays? At the cost of another's life? Where are your morals? Where is that human in you? Only demons laugh wickedly at night under a big mango tree when the life of someone is gone. Someone who would do that in the open is worse.
A few incidents happened of late where Nigerians were quick to use their phones with the mind of
posting what they have just captured, all for cheap fame, rather than render help.
I saw recently a video posted on Facebook by Insight&Why where a woman in agony who had already lost her legs writhing in pain, after a container fell on her legs, to the pleasure of Nigerians quick to use their phones. Afterall, they were there is the boast. Which is better: capturing that horror scene or trying to get her to the nearest hospital? Her wounds could get infected.
Another was a nude lunatic woman walking on the street naked, taking of her clothes and displaying her private parts to the amusement of passerby's who were quick to post it with caption that suggested that the woman gave her family members money to complete her house as she was in Amsterdam but ran mad immediately she entered the house. There were men there that could save her (when she gets better) and her loved ones from that shame but none did.
The truth is we all want to capture moments but please it shouldn't be at the detriment of someone's joy. Those things that caused so much pain to others shouldn't excite us. It would leave them traumatized for a lifetime while that 'information' you passed will soon be stale.
