Hello Stephanie,<\/p>\n
I am a student schooling in a university in the southwest part of Nigeria. I am in my second year. I am actually squatting with someone I know from home \u2013 he used to stay in my neighbourhood before his parents were transferred. He is older than me. The issue is, he gets involved in a lot of trouble and I feel this will affect me also. He takes drugs, he smokes and drinks a lot. He always has one new girlfriend every week. Countless times women have fought in his room because of this. One time I got injured in the process when one girl threw an empty bottle to another girl. The pieces almost cut my eye.<\/p>\n
Now, I suspect he is also a cultist. I have seen him with dangerous instrument before. He is very shady and I know he steals to sustain his drinking habits. He experiments on too many bad things. I don\u2019t have any money to get a place, and I don\u2019t know anyone else whom I can squat with. How can I stay away from all this trouble and still maintain the free accommodation I have? I have slept in class before but that is dangerous because thugs can come there and steal anything from you or beat you just for the heck of it.<\/p>\n
What can I do? I\u2019m very worried.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
