A Tale of Two Locations and One Citizenship by Lawson Akhigbe
Passports are supposed to be the great equalizers of national identity. If two people carry the green-backed book stamped with the Nigerian coat of arms, the constitution insists they share the exact same claim to fundamental dignity and justice. But citizenship, like roaming data on a prepaid SIM, appears to depend entirely on which borders your passport happens to cross.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/09/19/a-tale-of-two-locations-and-one-citizenship-by-lawson-akhigbe/

'Three syntactic patterns appear consistently:
• Passive constructions, such as “Data shall be retained,” which avoid naming the actor.
• Nominalizations, such as “submission,” which replace verbs like “submit” to obscure who acts.
• Instruction templates without subjects, such as “Confirm identity before approval,” which issue commands without specifying any agent.'Each of these forms is grammatically acceptable and often institutionally adopted. What unites them is that they structurally remove the subject, the speaker, and the agent.
'Why This Has Consequences
'Where no one is named, no one is held accountable.
[…]
'Formality, once a guarantee of procedure, becomes a mask for the absence of responsibility.'Documents continue to function. Authority continues to be exercised. Yet no one signs, and no one speaks.'
