Dear Sir,
I trust this meets you well.
I just finished reading your Friday piece at the Punch back page ("Friday Musings with....").
I must say that despite the fact that you obviously do not deserve the abuse and needless insults you get from Nigerians- it is something that cannot end. I believe that there is a relationship between one's education level and the way he or she addresses others. Note that a lot of Nigerians may be 'book smart' but they are not educated in the very least. The fact that it happens world over is a simple confirmation of this fact.
Going through Social Media these days is enough to give one nausea when seeing how simple analysis-devoid of sentiment-is turned back on the writer with insult to boot! Writing in the public space is never easy and I applaud you for doing so. Keep up the writing, one day it might get past their thick skulls.
Do enjoy your day.
Best,
Vahyala (writing from Lagos Island, Lagos)
