Ola and Steven met while in the university and became close friends after a second meeting. They seemed to have the same interests, which was the reason they became friends in the first place. The two remained close friends after university and even several years later.
Ola and Steven are now both 35 years old and happy with their partners. Both work for separate companies and live in different parts of Lagos, but they always make time to see and talk. After a while, Steven began to feel down and sad a lot; he was no longer interested in things that made him happy, and he was no longer encouraged or motivated to do anything. He solely felt frustrated and tired of how the economy was treating his finances. When he began to feel this way, he reached out to his friend Ola and expressed his dissatisfaction with the state of the economy, and Ola told Steven that it appeared the economy was dealing with everyone and everything, so he was not alone.
