Surviving another lockdown will be filled with depressing moments.

Greetings everyone!!

It is another contest on hivelearners, I hope we are all having thoughts of participation or at the course of action. Well, it is a great opportunity for me to participate in this contest, contributing to hive learners movement. Over the years, we may have experienced one or two lockdowns of which to some of us, it is not an experience we will want to face again. Specifically in Nigeria they are different forms at which lockdown presents itself. They are different cases where citizens are kept at home. Cases like conflicts, riots and that of global pandemic which was really demanding from everyone.

That of covid 19 didn't have to do with me staying inside because I left my location back then to my community which is in a rural area. Everything was still normal in that vicinity, where everyone carried out their major activities around this locality, but the constraints faced were not being able to buy products from the cities as always, thereby causing an increase in the price of products that were less expensive. The experience was not interesting at this point where people couldn't generate money as supposed and where now buying food stuffs, goods at expensive rate.

The experience didn't just affect business but also my academic pursuits. At this moment that I am writing, I am supposed to be done with school, but because of the lockdown, everything in school was on hold for a full year. Going back to think of this moment makes me never wish for such an experience again.

A sudden lockdown

This is the last thing I will ever think of because, from past experience, lives were at stake, and there are cases where people died from lack of food or goods were stollen from shops, making shop owners broke.

In response to the question asked

Will I survive it?
Surviving this kind of situation isn't fully guaranteed, as the risks involved shouldn't be imagined. Lives are at stake if this happens; people will die from hunger, fighting, and harassment from officers, which may lead to the shedding of blood. I just hope that such an experience will not occur again.
