Nigeria's minimum wage is ₦70,000 a MONTH.
The UK's minimum wage is £12.71 an HOUR.
A British worker on minimum wage earns about £2,200 a month working full-time. That's roughly ₦4.7 million at current exchange rates. Meanwhile, a Nigerian worker earns ₦70,000 for the entire month.
What's even more insulting is that some groceries are cheaper in the UK than in Nigeria. Milk, apples, potatoes and other basics often cost less there despite their workers earning hundreds of times more.
We earn like ants and spend like elephants.
The cruelty isn't just the poverty. It's that our leaders watch millions struggle to survive and act as if this is normal. Remi Tinubu thinks her husband is doing us a favour by building “coastal road” because “flight is expensive”
I hate it here.
REMIND YOUR OLDER SELF OF THIS
When you hit your mid‑30s to mid‑40s, life starts teaching you in 7D. Your older self needs to remember, before another decade disappears:
Take a mental pause before burnout forces you into a full‑blown mental shutdown.
Hydrate. Step outside. Half of your mood swings are due to dryness and stress hormones.
Stop chasing popularity at work. Earn respect instead; they’re not the same assignment.
Some people only look appealing because you’re emotionally starving.
Open the letters. Dodging bills is not a financial plan.
Release the earlier version of you. That version carried you here.
Change your environment if needed. Sometimes the location is the limitation.
End the situationship. Yes, that exact one.
Tidy one drawer. Progress begins with small wins.
Let your teenager handle things. They’re 14, not a toddler.
Eat protein like it’s your daily contract, because at this age, it is.
Stop acting like the family counselor. You’re not certified, and they’re not paying.
Cancel the subscriptions. Re‑activate only what you genuinely miss.
Repair the marriage or release it. The in‑between is draining both of you.
Book the colonoscopy. Stop being dramatic.
If it’s not scheduled, it’s not happening.
Draft the will while you’re still strong.
Choose who you want to be at 55, then build backwards.
Life is not a rehearsal. Your older self will be grateful you listened.
@Ziyad_yakubu It's only from your mouth I will hear that southern governors are telling their youth that the unemployment rate in their state is cos of north. I have never come across any governors saying that.
Y'all just create scenarios in your heads and move with it like it's the truth?
@UzairuMarxz I know say I no suppose dey argue with mumu but sometimes you can let mumu see the light and it's left to that mumu to try and learn to get more sense. At the same time a mumu can not be forced so it's your choice.
Dey enjoy
@UzairuMarxz@dangelinhooo@ashita_valdez I said it this one no get sense
That lad of Hijaz is it not inside Saudi right now? Taif, Jeddah, mecca, Medina are the not part of the Saudi Arabia peninsula?
You allow women voting before the means you can compromise on somethings why Una con dey force sharia on Yoruba Muslims?
@UzairuMarxz@dangelinhooo@ashita_valdez Since una dey punish person for drinking in the north
How many politicians have you punished for stealing?
Idiots with selective application
@IdrisAOni1@kootujirian 2.
And if you don't, you fit reincarnate as a goat. The quote "ewúré jele jele.." is about where you will be before being given another chance to life. Tí wọn ba ro òkú, That saying applies to that dead because it won't allow the dead to rest and find the chance for another life
@IdrisAOni1@kootujirian In my opinion, you are not half a Yoruba as you are suppose to be.
Because if you are, you will know (unless you want to pander to your religion) that from the beginning Yoruba don't have the concept of ọrùn rere And àpáàdì. If you do good you will be reborn with better life.. 1
@UzairuMarxz@dangelinhooo@ashita_valdez Let me make you see light from the first argument Mr parochial but I know you aren't a priest.
Saudi Arabia which is your holy land and which should lead as example opened a beer or let's say drinking joint for "elites".
Is drinking allowed in Islam? Or Saudi sharia different?
@MasterMaliq I thought you said just yesterday that Muhammad isn't the one that wrote the Quran.
Today, that same quran is what Muhammad left for his followers.
Nawa oo
I laughed so hard this afternoon when I saw that you Christians requested for a community note on a post that was making waves
Many quotes and comments shows you all were happy that I won't earn from that particular harmless post
Let me tell you
I am on twitter not because of Elon musk money
I am here for exposure and to expose the dark hearts of christians
You all just showed that the hatred you christians have for muslims is out of this world
And you go to churches on Sunday to worship 😂
This is the main reason why I left Christianity and I am glad I did!!!
Was once like you all here calling muslims all sorts of names so I know how it feels 😂
Soon you all will understand life
I've been on twitter space since 2022 and when I reverted to Islam I had a purge on this twitter account...
As a Christian I was involved in heavy betting, alcohol and criticism of muslims here until Allah arrested my heart and I left everything behind
Today I am a proud Muslim and I have the best of life
I have discovered the only way to Jannah is Islam and no second opinion
Whatever I lost as a Christian has been given me in 10 fold
Alhamdulilah for everything 🚶
@A__yabo Awe leave one Nigeria at this rate
Mapami now
Everyday na bad news and you still want make I continue one naija
Even the ones that are affected the most, their leaders dey keep quiet while their citizens also dey support rubbish
@UzairuMarxz@dangelinhooo@ashita_valdez X just dey accept all kind of nonsense this day
How is beer parlor correlate with tinubu misappropriation of funds or EFCC?
