You Are Not Alone: The Nigerian Story By Martins Richard Ugbegu

Let me tell you a story.

It’s a story of pain, a story of loss, and a story of fear. But it’s not a sad story.

At this moment in time, many citizens of Nigeria have lost so much. Some have lost their families, some their homes, others their friends. But the majority have lost their peace of mind.
