“Where did I go wrong being a Nigerian? Where did we go wrong? Did we pick our country? What offense have we committed that is strong enough for more than 200 people to go to bed and not wake up?”

She drew a striking comparison between Nigeria’s situation and the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict, noting that despite being at war, the casualties there haven’t reached the devastating toll Nigerians are facing in a time of supposed peace.

In a lenghty post, Tacha wrote; “Open Letter to the NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT!!!

The Nigerian people do not hate the government!! we hate the situation we’ve been forced to live in.

The PAIN shows in the way we speak, in how we act, and in the constant frustration we carry.

One of the most basic duties of any government is to protect lives and property. In this, you have failed us. From the president to the governors, senators, and ministers you all have families. You have children. You know the value of life.

AND To the First Lady of Nigeria we love you. I love you. And as a mother, you understand the pain of childbirth.

How do you explain children being born into a world where they die in their sleep!! burned, forgotten???

It is heartbreaking that Nigerians must beg for sympathy, beg to be addressed, beg for hope. What would it cost the Presidency to visit the grieving, to show that leadership feels??

We don’t feel the presence of our government. We are humans. You are humans. And yet, lives are reduced to ashes without national mourning. The flag should be at half-mast. But no!! only the Pope spoke before OUR OWN government did.

It is sad. It is painful. And we are tired of going in circles.

We just want to feel seen. We just want to feel safe.

We just want things to be better.

AND I ASK AGAIN!!?? WHere did we go WRONG AS NIGERIANS??💔.”
