In my previous article, I was talking about TRENCHES and what it meant in a financial scene. I would be continuing my talk on it on the topic.


In my case, I have returned to the TRENCHES and the TRENCHES is ever welcoming. The TRENCHES doesn't discriminate the black from the white, it accepts all nor does it judge people based on their commitments and actions as some people do leave the Trenches and don't end up remembering it nor saluting it once in a while when they got rich and when they go back to the Trenches, it still accepts them warmly and with open arms and treat them like the prodigal son. My abstract projection of personalising the "Trenches" as a human being or a person shouldn't seem weird or odd, it was just for clarity.

Some people do lie or portray themselves to be in the Trenches so that beggars and people might steer clear of them and not ask for support fundjgs and all, those people are impostors. People in the Trenches are generally broke and low on fundings.

One of the major characteristic we use in denoting and recognising those in the Trenches is the excessive and abusive intake of the food - Cassava Flakes natively called GARRI. When an individual exhibits this trait of excessive and abusive intake of Garri, it is safe to say and assume that he/she has returned to the Trenches.

Garri ( in the two big bowls ) with milk and groundnuts as additives for sweet and rich flavour

Cassava Flakes( Garri ) isn't a bad food and is surprising rich and a source of carbohydrates and it is usually taken with rich substances such as sugar, milk, fish, meat, groundnut/peanut/cashew, moƬ-moi, grilled/fried/smoked fish and all sorts of various sides. Water is added to garri to make it drinkable, it has a sour taste when taken alone and so,the least combination to take with Garri would be the Sugar to sweeten it.

Someone in the Trenches takes Garri without putting sugar as the cost of sugar might not be incurred or too expensive to add to the budget of the little fundings available to that individual.

Some of the factors that causes the downward spiral of an individual into the Trenches can be

  • Mismanagement of funds

  • Falling victim to fraudsters

  • Excessive and abusive spending of money

  • Emergency-Room matters, and so on.

Going back to the Trenches at times can be from an act of irresponsibility and negligence while some are out of noble cause and unforseen events. In any way, the Trenches isn't in anyway Good for an individual.

I would be closing the curtain here on my little insight into the state of things as of present with the Youth sector of my nation. I might not have presented the topic well, who knows? But i did to the best of my abilities .

Good Morning to you all. Do Have a nice day ahead
