Verily, Verily, I say this to you; it's Nigeria that's slowing down the Igbos.

So glad I have a job now, so I don't need to launch a course or a paid community to survive.

So if Alex Onyia didn’t decide to take these kids to Rome, you mean the world would not have seen us win gold?

Some other country would have won and we would have thought they were the brightest on earth?

Bad Governance is hiding the greatness of Nigerians.

I’ve said on previous tweets that Nigerians are the brightest and smartness people on earth. No enabling environment to showcase that brilliance.

You work at work, and then you come back home, and you continue to do house chores.

From time to time, let it go into chaos.

Everybody should go to the fridge and find themselves something to eat.

Teach everybody resourcefulness.

Leave the laundry, let it pile.

On a Saturday, stretch your legs, lie in, and let breakfast come to you.

Nothing will happen.

We are both walking around undiagnosed 😭😭😂😂

Jollof rice is great, but Imagine walking right out of long years of misery, just to walk into your prime. I look at myself sometimes and thank God, I look goooood, and feel great. Damm!

I have friends who are older and very fit because of their lifestyle. They don't drink or smoke and exercise daily. They also have the most unfit kids who don't follow their example. This has always worried me as I am raising young children. I have also seen families with hard-working and wealthy parents who raise the laziest and most entitled children.

We always want our children to do better than us, but when and where does this go wrong for most people? I think it comes from the time and attention we personally give our kids and the lapses we allow.

My wife and I are early risers. I have a particular sleep problem I am still trying to solve, but my kids can sleep all day on vacation if you let them. A friend with an older son who had just graduated and was back home, jobless, used to tell me how alarmed he was that the son would go out all night, come back early in the morning, and sleep all day.

I told him then that if he didn't force him to change that habit, he would remain jobless and stay with his parents longer. They eventually forced him to change, and he moved out. He has a job now and struggles a lot. His parents are concerned that he isn't thriving. He is now almost 30, and I think about this all the time. At 25, I was a beast and had started many businesses.

While we want our kids and young adults to experience life on their own terms in a world vastly different from the one we grew up in, we can't help but notice that others whose children were more disciplined are thriving better. One indicator I have seen that correlates with success in younger people is fitness.

A friend’s son started going to the gym regularly, and he even inspired his cousins to do so. I checked on LinkedIn recently, and he is doing exceptionally well as a lawyer and investment banker without any family connections or assistance. His younger cousins, who are looking up to him, are following in his footsteps. I decided to get my kids to spend more time with him.

The role models our children need may be closer to their age than ours. It is why we need to amplify the lifestyles of young, disciplined, and successful people more. Not every person will make it through creative pursuits. I stress this to my kids all the time. There are billions of YouTube channels, but there is only one MrBeast or IShowSpeed.

Social media is highlighting more unrealistic role models than the most useful ones. My daughter is likely one of the most intelligent young children that I know, but because she doesn't want to be seen as a nerd, she is adapting to popular culture to blend in, in a way that scares me. This sometimes affects the way she learns. While I don't want to restrict her now from experiencing the world, I have realized that she needs different role models.

My son’s role models are nerds, and he nerds out in ways that surprise me and it is also worrying. We can be watching a movie, and he goes online to research it and summarise the plot so he can leave to code. He is not experiencing life enough outside the internet.

They will either eventually be ok in a world very different from ours or struggle in a world that becomes worse than ours, without the skills to build personal resilience and strong social skills.

I recently had a personal experience that made me realize I was fortunate to have left home early and to have different role models from my parents. Having a broken home led to different outcomes for my siblings and me, but the fact that I had strong personalities like my mother’s uncle and the uncles I grew up around helped me learn a lot more about life and priorities.

The world is a very complex place, and life is not a bed of roses. While we want the best outcomes for our kids, we have to finally admit that they will learn far more from others than they will ever learn from us. The best thing we can do for them is expose them to the right kind of people early enough, then hope and pray that we didn't misread those people.

I once worked in a bakery owned by a man who lives in Germany. Even though he wasn't in Nigeria, he knew everything that happened in that bakery. He monitored everything.

As a staff, you couldn't even steal one loaf of bread. If you did, he'd send his boys, they'd deal with you, and you'd be fired immediately.

One day, a guy stole one sardines. The owner didn't react immediately. No actions at all from the man.

He waited until the end of the month, he deducted the cost of a full carton of sardines from the guy's salary, paid him the balance, and dismissed him.

That's how strict he was. Till today, I still don’t know how he did his camera settings.

Passport Bros: I wanted a traditional wife from a really poor country, western women are sooo entitled

Passport Wife: Great! Welcome to a traditional extended family system. Auntie’s moving in for a while, so is my mother, your brother-in-law needs £4000 for his start up, I will NOT be working, you’re expected to contribute to your niece’s university fees, and everyone knows you got a bonus this year so our cousins want mountain bikes

Listen, it's only a well accomplished rich Nigerian man that can die abroad with no structure put in place at home that outlives him. Then after his burial, his children just enjoy his funds with no impact whatsoever.

This Outlier 'controversy' brings up something I've been mulling over.

Non-black races study legal loopholes in order to benefit from them. For instance, Indians are renown for creating outsourcing Agencies because they understand pooling strengths and abilities, and maximising their skillsets.

A black man can be intelligent and well read, yet be completely dull when it comes to pooling resources to benefit those coming after him even if it means dissecting legal loopholes.

Beyond "brain drain," this is a fundamental issue that has permeated our psyche.

Even if an Indian can't personally create an Outlier account for his people back home, they can create an Agency and uncover proxy legal loopholes to make that a viable path. Before you know, Outlier opens support offices in India because they see value.

But here? "Na only me be big man!" "Those people are lazy, and don't want to work" or the worst, "it's God that is helping us oo" bla bla.

That's why they can tension you on X as they go on vacations yet, you don't derive any value from their lives as "well accomplished individuals."

Have you seen Elon Musk posting vacation pictures?

Not saying that posting vacation pictures is bad, but people that have value give value or think about how to give value, not all these fear-mongering that is unrealistic.
