Frusutrated 27 year old jobless Tunisian man decides to set himself alight in protest of lack of employment.
Badly burnt and in critical condition
The young man drenched his body in Petrol and set himself ablaze
The incident was a retrospect of the suicide of Tunisian street
vendor Mohamed Bouazizi who set himself on fire on 17 December 2010, in
protest of the confiscation of his wares and the harassment and
humiliation that he reported was inflicted on him by a municipal
official and her aides. His act became a catalyst for the Tunisian
Revolution[2] and the wider Arab Spring, inciting demonstrations and
riots throughout Tunisia in protest of social and political issues in
the country. - Wikipedia

I think Nigerians know that when there is life, there is hope
