I worked at the McDonald's at King's Cross Station for three months while I was a student in London. Then, after my security clearance came through, I left to work as a temp at the British Parliament. That's when this photo was taken.
I would do my shift, go home and sleep for three hours, then go to school, and after school, I would return to work and do another shift. In between, I would go to the toilet to sleep and ask my brother to phone me in fifteen minutes so I could return to work without attracting too much attention. Thank you, Jemine!
Juggling school and work is not an easy task. It certainly is not for the faint-hearted.
If you are one of the estimated 1 million Nigerian undergraduates benefiting from President Bola Tinubu's Interest-Free NELFUND Student Loan, you may never know how blessed you are to have the opportunity to focus on your studies without worrying about your tuition or upkeep.
That alone makes learning conducive and fosters a state of mind favourable to academic pursuits and mobility later in life.
I urge this million-man student army not to underestimate what the President has done for them, and not to underrate the threat to this scheme if fuel subsidy is restored.
Your education makes you the elite of Nigeria. You know about scale of preferences and that human wants are unlimited while available resources are limited.
What do you think will happen if fuel subsidy is restored? Automatically, the initiatives funded by subsidy savings, such as Student Loans, increased and regular allocation to states, regular and improved payment of civil servants' salaries and retirees' pensions, as well as unprecedented infrastructural development, which includes the 750-kilometre Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, the 1068-kilometre Illela-Sokoto-Badagry Superhighway, and the 465-kilometre Trans-Saharan Road, will grind to a halt.
And even worse for you, ASUU strikes will resume!
So put Nigeria first and stay the course by extending the right hand of fellowship to His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, on Saturday, January 16, 2027.
The President came through for you. Now, come through for him.

NEWS FLASH: Ibo widow forced to take a bath in public with the water used to bath the corpse of her late husband. An age-long practice widows in Ibo land, South-East Nigeria are subjected to to prove they did not k!ll their husbands. Sometimes, these widows are forced to drink the water used to wash the corpse of their late husbands.
No wonder Ohaneze Ndigbo procured the services of a an Expatriate from Eneka, Ikwerre land, to lead them as Ohaneze PG and help abolish inhumane practices in SE such as this.

Anyways she's gone back to resign from her job and packing her bag to spend the rest of her life with his Nigerian king in Nigeria.
When you think Nigeria has no value, it won't be valuable for you.
Even the Bible says in Jeremiah 29 verse 7 says
"Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper." (NIV).
Please if you have any connect in the hospitality sector, she has over 10 years in the hospitality management sector and she's ready to be part of Nigeria's workforce. Pls tag them to this post or reach out to me.

In March 1997, police walked into a mansion near San Diego and found 39 bodies on bunk beds. All of them wore the same black clothes and the same brand-new Nike sneakers, with a purple cloth over their faces. They had killed themselves to catch a spaceship they believed was hiding behind a comet.
In the video below, you see them a few days earlier. One by one they sit in front of a camera and say goodbye. They smile. Several of them call it the happiest day of their lives.
They called themselves Heaven's Gate. Their leader, Marshall Applewhite, a former music teacher, told them the Hale-Bopp comet was bringing a spaceship to take them home. All they had to do was leave their bodies behind.
They lived together, shared the same haircut and the same clothes, answered to new names, and paid the bills by building websites.
They died in shifts over three days. Each one had a five-dollar bill and some quarters in their pocket.
On the tapes, a former army paratrooper thanks Applewhite for taking him under his wing. A mother of three says her thoughts in these last hours are "only of joy and wonder."
"I am doing this of my own free will."
Experts who studied the tapes say almost every one of them repeats Applewhite's words nearly word for word. And on the other side of the camera, Applewhite was sitting there, listening.
One investigator called it 38 murders and one suicide.
Was this 39 people choosing to leave, or one man making sure none of them could change their mind?

Hypocrisy of an Overrated 'Prof'
At 26 years....Pat Utomi was already a special assistant to the Shagari govt on economic matters....
They oversaw one of Nigeria worst economic slump in history....
Nigeria was just transiting from the oil boom era under Gowon and Obasanjo that saw the duo wasted Nigeria opportunity to develop on stomach infrastructure....
They invested billions of Naira on frivolities....from the udoji wage bonanza, to monumental cement importation deadlock.., to big brother Africa bonanza to Festac.... Obasanjo and Gowon ate Nigeria future with some public servants....
Like Tinubu.... Shagari inherited a dying economy.....
Instead of embarking on economic reforms like Tinubu.... Shagari continued the business as usual route...
Nigeria was committing billions of dollars to defend the Naira..... Shagari... probably listening to the young Utomi.... choose not to float the Naira... The numerous subsidies introduced by Gowon were retain.... Stomach infrastructures reign supreme...
Borrowing grew by almost 200%.... as Nigeria debt climbed from about N7 billion to over N30 billion.....
The so call "good life " led to massive importation.... exportation fell as the artificial strong Naira " killed export...
Soon the $10 billion reserve Shagari met..disappeared..
Nigeria had no dollar to import basic commodities..... local industries had no dollar to buy machine parts and raw materials...
The shelves were now empty.... people could no longer find essential products to buy even when they had money.... these was not scarcity of fuel.... but food, drugs and others...
Inflation flew from 10% in 1980 to over 35% in 1984....
Shagari was forced to ban importation of some specific goods to conserve dollars...
nigeria was just roughly a nation of about 60 million people....
Tinubu is shoving through same crisis without the disastrous approach of Shagari for a population over 4 times of what Shagari managed...
Naira was artificially stronger than the dollar in the Shagari economic disaster...
So the idea that a Naira with value below N500 to a dollar means comfortable life is lame...
Pat Utomi was part of the Shagari disaster... it was the most hated IBB SAP which devalued the Naira.... that resurrected Nigeria economy from death
The internet is awash with numerous videos of Pat Utomi eulogizing Tinubu in the past....probably he may have fell out with Tinubu over his attempt to reinvent the Shagari economic harakiri under Tinubu...
Unfortunately he is positioning himself as Obi economic minister in a bid to punish this generation as he did with the past....
For those who thinks Utomi is actually brilliant..... They are the reason why the Urhobos say...
It is better to born a thief than to born a mumu....
Proverbs are not for kids....

See @Morris_Monye praising Student Loan when Obi copied it hurriedly in his manifesto in 2022, immediately the original owner of the idea, Mr President started the implementation in 2023, They suddenly started abusing Student Loan, If you like, let them gaslight you, We know where they all got their advise from ‘that guy’ 😂😂😂
They all know the truth, as far as it’s not Obi doing it, It’s a bad idea 😂😂
I’ve said it several times that I supported Peter Obi in 2022/23 because of his economic policies.
Fortunately or unfortunately, Tinubu got into power and started implementing those policies I had looked forward to Obi implementing.
I publicly backed those policies, cause I believe they were in the best interest of the country.
On the other hand, the same Peter Obi I once supported started speaking against these policies he once campaigned with.
I publicly called out that deceitful behaviour.
Ladies and gentlemen, that’s how I became an APC data boy.
