A lot of things are going on around us in our society that we feel are wrong and wish the government could intervene and place a ban on such things to regulate and make the community a safer and more decent place for all. The same goes for things that would have improved life and made things much easier but were banned for one reason or another by the government. Today I'll love to write about what I'll do differently if I were to have the ability to ban and unban some things in my community.

Personally, in my country, there are loads of things that are good and would have made our lives much easier, but unfortunately for us, the government has placed an embargo on such, meaning indulging in such would be at our own detriment and put us on the black book of the government. I've got many in mind, but I'll just highlight these two ones I'll unban, and I'm sure maybe you will agree with me on this.
The first item on the list is to lift the ban placed on cryptocurrency trading by the government in Nigeria. It's not like they're totally against it, but they've placed a ban on direct transactions with cryptocurrency and our fiat account, and what that means is that if anyone were to mistakenly make a crypto trade directly with their fiat account, such account would be banned immediately, and one would have to let go of whatever you've on such account.
Like we all know, the importance of crypto can never be overemphasized, and with the ridiculous minimum wage being paid, one needs to seek other streams of income, and crypto does just that. Unfortunately, we now need to let go of some of our earnings to P2P vendors, who stand as a middleman between our crypto assets and our desire to hunger for fiat.

This vendor takes extra fees before they can send us fiat via their own fiat account, and we can release crypto assets to them once we see the alert. I believe having a steam-less trading system would be the best, and that'll also pave the way for crypto currency to be accepted as a medium of payment within the country.
Another important thing I'll love to uplift the ban on is the order given to health practitioners not to attend to another with a severe case of bullet, hit and run, and the like without a police report. This order has led to the untimely deaths of loads of people around the country, and if such a ban were to be lifted, at least the health practitioner would immediately give such patients first aid treatment that helps secure their lives rather than leave them for dead until a police report arrives, of which we all know such wouldn't be gotten in a giffy in our country.
Moving on to things I'll ban in order to make my country a better place for all, I'll be placing a ban on alcohol and any forms of smoking items like cigarettes, weed, or shisha. These items have caused a lot of havoc in our country and led to untimely deaths, accidents, loss of sanity, and several others, to mention but a few.

Although it seems like there was a ban on weed, we still see many celebrities smoking it in their music videos, and since nothing is done to them, other members of society indulge in it. These, including beer and cigarettes, are not good for our health, nor do they add good value to our lives. This is something I dislike a lot, and it'll be good for our country if there are no smokers and drinkers. It'll also reduce the number of mad people, the rate of accidents, and several others, to mention but a few.
That's about it for now. I hope you enjoyed the read. Have a great and relaxing weekend ahead.
