ARE WE MAD ? (145) COLLATERAL

My name is China, I suffered so much to the extent that at a point in time I was at war with all my friends (America, Britain etc) because of what I believe in and how I should train my children.

I have a lot of them and the resources to cater for them was meager so I was very strict with them so that they can leave some for their own children but thank God I did it successfully, now it’s not only me that is rich but my children are also very wealthy in everything

I now have so many friends and some of them earlier were my enemies but now because I was like the proverbial Joseph and Pharaoh I have a barn of grains and there is drought in the oil farm

Nigeria my new friend has fewer children than me and have more resources than me but because he cannot control his children when he was having money, the children squandered his wealth and are now labourers in America, Britain, Australia, Lesotho farms

Things are no longer rosy for my friend

My friend has a habit of borrowing money he cannot pay for his children to enjoy the good things of life
He approached me and I agreed to lend him some money from the reserve I kept for my great grandchildren and since I may not be around to draw the debt at the expiration of the loan I am asking him to give him one of his lucrative farms as collateral so that if he can’t pay when due,my children can use the farm , harvest and take what belongs to me.

Suddenly the spoilt brats of my friends are kicking against it calling me all sorts of names like Shylock etc forgetting that their father is a known debtor still owing some of our cooperatives like Paris, London,IMF and some other friends and even some of his own children through OMO

Please advise me on what to do because I am afraid I don’t want to lose my money and I want to help my friend

I am not APC or PDP but I desire the best for Nigeria
