Monkey Dey Work, Baboon Dey Chop

The title is from a popular Nigerian pidgin English. This is usually when someone does all the work while another person takes all the glory or reaps all the benefit. It is when a hardworking individual is being taken advantage of. This means the act of exploitation.

People in government (PIGs) are hopelessly corrupt and putting in less work but eating off their minion’s labor. They loot and feast on the sweat of the people in the country in order to line their pockets. Nowhere is the Orwellian maxim, “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others” more apt than in Nigeria.
