@ruffydfire When you pack touts, career criminals and thieving politicians and give them sensitive positions for political gains, there is no other outcome than utter, complete failure.

This little boy, Godwin Chijindu Ikeobi, a JSS1 student of Government College, Owerri, surprised me today.

Today he won first place in the Junior Category at the Mathematical Association of Nigeria (MAN) Imo State Chapter Olympiad exam.

He failed to qualify for the final round from Imo State for the 2026 South East Maths Olympiad and has been crying and depressed.

He attends a government school and felt he was disadvantaged. He was one of the reasons I deployed learning content for all participants in the 2027 South East Maths Olympiad for education equality.

He took the lessons seriously and has been studying them on his own daily. Today he has proven that your background cannot limit you if you are determined to succeed.

He beat all the private and public schools in Imo State today to attain that position.

What a star!

@dolawanle Words worth noting: "Don’t grow so big that you now talk about those who help you as if they are your equals, or you never acknowledge them to say what they did for you".

As we celebrate Democracy Day, a recent poll shines a light on how Nigerians feel about their democracy, the hurdles they face, and their hopes for a brighter, safer, and more inclusive future. It also reveals the nation’s growing expectations for a stronger democracy, better leadership, and greater economic opportunity.

Though challenges persist, the true strength of Nigeria pulses in the voices and dreams of its people, who are actively shaping a more resilient democracy and a future of shared prosperity.

@dolawanle With the recent dynamics where both parents are financially involved in running the home, the excuse of men being too busy making money to be emotional available to his children does not hold water. Men should make deliberate efforts to build a relationship with their children.

My sentiment exactly! Lowering the standards screams mediocrity. It shows teachers & our educational system is not valued. As parents, do we bother to find out the educational qualifications of our children's teachers? Ironically, it rubs off on our children. Let's be guided.

[Toyosi Stephen Adedara @TSAdedara]

Just so you know, this is not because the system is broken but because we never thought it was worth fixing.

I have a https://t.co/0nj6bkCGQL,Ed and a MEd from the Nigerian education system. I watched brilliant, committed people study curriculum theory, developmental psychology, pedagogy, and assessment for years, just to enter a profession that the same government treats like a fallback option for people who could not get in anywhere else. And now JAMB has formalized that disrespect.

Ask yourself one question: would we ever do this for Medicine and Surgery? Would we say, “you know what, anyone who wants to be a doctor does not need to pass UTME?” Of course not. Because people would die, and we would see it. Dead body go surplus ba? Yeah.

But here is the truth nobody wants to say out loud. The damage a poorly trained teacher does is just as lethal. It is only slower. It shows up twenty years later in citizens who cannot think critically, who are vulnerable to propaganda, who will collect N5,000 and vote against their own future, who will join a secret cult because nobody ever taught them their own dignity. You cannot separate the collapse of Nigerian civic life from the collapse of Nigerian teacher education. They are the same story.

Finland did not become Finland by accident. Denmark did not become Denmark by accident. The countries we admire for their infrastructure, their rule of law, their social trust, their cleanliness, their decency, built those things first in classrooms, with teachers who were selected from the top of their graduating cohorts and paid and respected accordingly. Teaching in Finland is as competitive as Medicine. That is not a coincidence.

Our leaders cannot see this because they are not building for a future they will not live to enjoy. They want to name senate buildings after themselves today like Mimiko did in Ondo State. They want to build stadiums and name it after themselves like Godswill Akpabio. Nobody gets a plaque for producing a generation of thoughtful citizens. Nobody cuts a ribbon for that. And so it does not get done.

Also, prioritizing petroleum engineers and tech gurus give them the ammunition they need to continuously take advantage of our natural resources and fintech opportunities to make millions. But for teachers who raise viable citizens? Nah! No instant reward.

This JAMB policy is not a mistake. It is a value statement. It tells you exactly what this system thinks of teachers, of education, of the human beings those teachers will spend their lives shaping. And until we are as outraged about that as we are about fuel prices or naira depreciation, we will keep producing the same country, and then wondering why nothing ever changes.

Everyone at @JAMBHQ should be ashamed of themselves.

@PolarisBankLtd Your apologies do not solve the issue. I haven't been able to access my account in days. Doesn't this supposed maintenance have a duration? You can't hold on to customers funds indefinitely and pause their lives.

@PLACNG @cnwangwu @OshajiP @Matthewbycredo @FCDOGovUK Women are working hard but not enough, there is a need to re strategies in identifying their target audience. Electoral representative have wives, husbands, relatives at home the push, support and passing of the special seat bill starts from there. - Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu

[NOIPolls @NOIPolls]

@PLACNG @cnwangwu @OshajiP @Matthewbycredo @FCDOGovUK Despite huge support for the Special Seats Bill for women the constitution review/bill should not be passed until it includes provisions for persons living with disabilities. In its current form, the bill is exclusive than inclusive,failing to represent them. - Mr. Jake Epelle

[NOIPolls @NOIPolls]

@PLACNG @cnwangwu @OshajiP @Matthewbycredo @FCDOGovUK In conclusion, considering citizens’ perceptions, this dialogue has the potential to significantly strengthen electoral development. When citizens are actively engaged, they are more likely to participate meaningfully in democratic processes.
