Christmas means different things to different people. While some see it as an annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, there are those who think it is actually a chance to flaunt their wealth and spend hundreds of thousands recklessly on gifts.
In fact, there are those who blow millions and share their purchases on social media for all to ‘bow’.
Hardly will they remember the underprivileged who are in the Motherless Babies Home (orphanage) or even a relative whom they know requires special help. There are also those in the hospitals suffering and can’t even pay the bills.
There are also people struggling to get into the Christmas Spirit but why wouldn’t they when they are not into charity?
Kanayo O. Kanayo tackled people like this in a video he shared on social media.
You can watch the video below which was captioned;
“WHAT DOES CHRISTMAS MEAN TO YOU? Nigerians should stop pretending to celebrate Christmas. Please be patient and watch”
