No one saw the iron hand 2023 dealt Nigerians coming. From neck-breaking inflation to crazy fuel price and transport fare hikes, the poor barely gets a chance to breathe. As the year draws to a close, we deserve premium enjoyment to help us recover. We don’t want the Santa who comes with nothing but legwork and photo sessions. It’s these types or nothing.

The charity givers

Anyone who takes it upon themselves to give to the needy this holiday is the type of Santa Claus we need in this economy. 

Santa Wizzy

Wizkid is in Lagos and high in Christmas spirit. On December 11, 2023, he posted on his IG story that he has ₦100m to give away this Christmas in the name of his late mum. This is how a proper Santa moves; in millions and merry.

Mint note relatives

This is a callout to all our uncles and aunties who are known to dole out crispy naira notes. Don’t let us miss you this December.

A boss who approves “13th month”

A 13th month salary or Christmas bonus would bang right now. With that, we can ball in December and still manage through the 80 days of January. Any boss that disburses the funds should be awarded Santa Claus of the Year.

Anyone in Tinubu’s government

Appointments have been flying up and down. The federal government just sponsored over 500 non-professional people to the COP28 summit in Dubai. It’s clear to see that the biggest ballers of this period are the direct beneficiaries of Tinubu’s government. Find one today and tell him how good you’ve been all year.

IJGB people

They shouldn’t even bother to change their cash to naira. Let them just come with their hard currencies and squeeze them into our hands.

Friendly police

We need policemen who won’t harass us for not giving them “something” for December.
