Aptly stated.
Imagine Belgians fighting the French over who invented French fries. And why it’s called French fries instead of Belgian fries. It’s shameful. This is the same thing that black Americans do with braids. Not knowing that it’s a Dutch invention. It’s really crazy.

This is not just belief. This is mental and ideological terrorism. It’s not different from boko-haram and other Islamic terror groups. It’s like you saying drug dealers should be allowed to sell their drugs freely because they are not forcing anyone to come and buy.

OPay 2025 balance sheet shows that they disbursed over 900 million dollars worth of loans. They were given to Nigerians like yourself not goats.
Agenda is bastard!
Some religion slave believed the nonsense coming out of this man’s mouth. You are a missionary country but over 50% of your country men are still Muslims, isn’t that foolishness.
This thing just dey vex me. Not because he said it, but because some people believed it.

This tweet accidentally explains one of the deepest problems with Nigerian education.
We have confused early literacy with early intelligence.
A 5 year old kid reading and writing before everyone isn’t impressive. Childhood development is not a race to finish the ABC. Those early years should be about building curiosity, creativity, problem-solving, communication and independent thinking.
Let them build things. Draw nonsense. Play games. Solve puzzles. Ask annoying questions. Learn to disagree and explain why.
Then reading, writing and maths become tools for a mind that has already started learning how to THINK.
And Twitter is probably the funniest evidence of what happens when we get this backwards 😂
Every day you meet people here who can read and write beautifully. Big grammar sef.
But comprehension? Omo.
You write A. They read B. They argue passionately against C. Then 4,000 people retweet aggressively 😭
That is the tragedy.
Literacy is not the same thing as education. Being able to read is useless if you were never taught how to think.
Canada 🇨🇦 thought my 5-year-old was special. Nigeria already prepared her.
One of my girls was 5 when we landed in Canada. In Nigeria, she would already have been in Primary 1. She could read and write simple sentences.
Her first months in a Canadian school shocked everyone. Not just because of her Nigerian accent. They were stunned she could actually read and write while her classmates were still learning letters and numbers.
She started winning awards. They made her read to the whole class.
As parents, we were not celebrating. We saw what was happening. They were slowing her down. Our biggest fear was that they would make her forget her maths.
So we did what many Nigerian parents abroad eventually do: we got a teacher from Nigeria and added IXL. Thank God we did. Years later, she is still ahead.
I still don’t understand why Canada waits until children are 5 before teaching letters and numbers.
Nigeria 🇳🇬 starts earlier. That early foundation is not “too much.” It is an advantage. Do not let a slower system erase what your child already has. Bring the standard with you.

The only ideas public university administrators have for revenue generation are school fees, bakery and pure water factory.
He no dey pass those three.
Nothing like endowment funds, converting their vast lands to startup parks or leasing them to manufacturers who can engage students with internships.
Bunch of stupid professors running Nigeria's educational system.
Ex-LASU VC: Public varsities must charge N1m tuition per student to sustain financial independence
Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, immediate past vice-chancellor of Lagos State University (LASU), says public universities across the country will have to charge N1 million tuition per student in order to sustain financial independence.
Olatunji-Bello spoke in an interview with Punch, where she reflected on her five-year tenure in LASU, which ended on Saturday.

If you are a founder in Nigeria and you strongly believe you are solving a problem, ignore this advise. Founders that lived and built from Nigeria have raised funds more than founders that live outside Nigeria. In fact you are more likely to succeed if you build from Nigeria.
If you are developer in Nigeria still less than 30 years old.
Build up your skills and set your eye on leaving the country earlier.
Don’t get trapped by that “founder” thing.
Nigeria isn’t America where you can get funded for an app that will eventually fail.
Some things are easier to achieve at 30 than at 40.
The only thing I can see here is too much confidence and no logical sense at all. Such confidence can only come from thinking you are the smartest person in the room.

Upcoming generations of black people will live through something similar to a modified version of enforced segregation. I’m not saying this to be alarmist. I’m being very serious.
I don’t think people realize how radicalized young white people are becoming because of the behavior displayed in this video. Once the boomer and ultra-liberal whites who have no kids die out, you will be left with white people with a heightened sense of tribalism and natural hostility toward black folks.
I can’t say that I blame them. Whites have spent a good 8 decades extending moral fairness and charity to other ethnic groups, while other groups (black americans) have been exploiting this goodwill only to become more narcissistic and hostile toward whites.
The biggest thing about this is that white people helped black people burn down cities and held highly publicized panels in protest of “mistreatment” of our criminal class, but these same black folks cannot be bothered to even acknowledge frequent black-on-white violence. Do you all think this will continue?
Black people are too prideful and narcissistic to take on the perspective of the other side. I don’t want to hear any whining when things reach the boiling point.
🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after a mob of Black "teens" dragged a White female college student off her own porch BY HER HAIR, dragged her to a stop sign, and then beat her UNCONSCIOUS... TWICE...
...while a crowd stood around FILMING it!!!
The girls called 911 **FIVE TIMES** that night, but police didn't show up until AFTER the beating was over.
This happened near York College in Pennsylvania.
A group of students, young White women, were on the porch of their off-campus house when a stranger walked up and picked a fight and a mob of Black "teens" rushed them.
One of the girls was ripped off the porch by her hair, dragged to a stop sign, then roughly a dozen people jumped her at once, kicking and punching her from every angle while a crowd of up to 30 encircled her.
She blacked out TWICE... once from a kick to the ribs and again from a blow to the back of the head.
And the whole time, she says, people were recording it on their phones and laughing... filming her get beaten unconscious for entertainment.
Her friends were dragged down the steps by their hair too. One was already in a knee brace, recovering from an injury.
The girls say they called 911 FIVE separate times.
The first calls went out BEFORE the violence even started, when a crowd was gathering and cars were street racing so recklessly that one of them smashed into a parked car next to the firehouse.
Five calls. They were told each time that officers were coming. Officers didn't arrive until it was over.
Students say this isn't new and that large crowds gather there constantly, and that another student was attacked just two weeks earlier by what they believe is the same group of non-students.
"The cops haven't done anything to protect us, and campus safety hasn't done anything. It feels like they're scared to get involved with 'these' people, but then it puts us at risk when they're doing nothing."
WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!
This is not a bad idea, however, I don’t trust Nigerians with any policy implementation, it has always failed. What system or systems will be put in place to ensure this is successfully implemented?
My dear Francis, thank you for taking the time to truly understand what I am proposing. That means a great deal to me.
I am not restoring subsidy so that Nigeria can keep paying for imported petrol. I am restoring subsidy so that Nigerians can produce more at home, pay less for fuel, and keep more money in their pockets.
That is the difference between import subsidy and production subsidy.
Think about shoes. If government wants Nigerians to buy shoes more cheaply, it can spend public money making imported shoes cheaper, or it can support shoemakers in Aba to reduce their production costs so they can make more shoes here, employ more Nigerians and sell at more affordable prices.
I choose the Aba shoemaker.
I will do the same with fuel. We will support crude refined in Nigeria so our refineries can produce at a lower cost and you can pay less.
But for me, this is bigger than fuel.
I want the bus fare you pay every morning to come down. I want the cost of taking food from the farm to the market to come down. I want the trader to spend less. I want the barber, tailor, welder and small business owner to spend less on energy.
I want a mother to return from the market with more food in her bag.
I want a father to pay transport and still have something left in his pocket.
I want a small business owner to close for the day with profit, not just enough money to buy fuel for tomorrow.
That is what affordability means to me.
Less money spent on fuel.
Less money spent on transport.
Less pressure on food prices.
More money left for your family.
My promise is personal: I want you to feel relief in your pocket, in your home and in your daily life.
I will make life affordable again.
I will make Nigeria affordable again.
It is a promise. -AA

Well, you wouldn’t know what it takes to build a business like OPay and have a nuisance try to destroy it by spreading fake news for stipend.
We all know that what Haifa did was wrong and virtually nobody supported her actions. However, I have questions about what happened afterwards.
From what I have followed, after her tweet went viral, OPay only asked her to take down the post and issue an apology within a specified timeframe. My understanding is that she did exactly what she was asked to do she removed the post and apologised.
So, why would OPay still go ahead to have her arrested, particularly if she had complied with the company’s demands?
I would have viewed the matter differently if Haifa had refused to take down the post or apologise after being asked to do so. But if she did exactly what OPay requested, then I believe there are legitimate questions about why her arrest was still necessary, especially if the decision was influenced by calls from social media users demanding her arrest.
I therefore want to make a sincere and strong appeal to OPay, please, kindly look into this matter again. Haifa is a young woman and a student. She made a mistake, was called out for it, and, from what we all saw, complied with the corrective steps OPay itself requested. If that is indeed the case, I believe keeping her in custody serves little useful purpose.
We can condemn what Haifa did without condemning her as a person. We can hold people accountable for their mistakes while still showing compassion, especially when they have acknowledged the wrongdoing and complied with the remedy requested of them.
OPay, please reconsider this matter. We appeal to you to have Haifa released and allow this incident to end with a lesson learned rather than a young student’s life being unnecessarily derailed.
