Famous Nigerian music producer, singer and songwriter Cobhams Asuquo has roused the attention of Nigerians over the inadequacies in the country, extending from the government to different organizations.
Cobhams, currently in Kenya, shared a video online where he contemplated extending his stay in the country over their remarkable difference from Nigeria.
The highly esteemed singer was spotted in the video tracing a braille (a form of written language for blind people, in which characters are represented by patterns of raised dots that are felt with the fingertips) menu provided by the restaurant.
Cobhams, who shared the video on Instagram, expressed delight to be able to select his menu in a restaurant and also thought of staying back in Kenya.
He wrote: So I came to a restaurant in Kenya and these guys gave me a braille menu. Nigeria, how far? Am I coming back lai dis ?
Nigerians who reacted to this development counted the many faults in the country’s system while highlighting the vast difference and setback Nigeria has been experiencing.

Good girl? anyway, I’ll save my personal birthday message to you for your ears only; I don’t think they can handle it! but today I raise a glass to a wonderful woman who has turned many obstacles into stepping stones.
