We are our own 'lifesmiths'. We blast and shape it as we choose.
The praise for the success and the boo for the failure rest on us. And in doing so, squarely!
Nigeria, probably the world's tenth largest bamboo producer, but most of it ends up on construction sites for one-off use as scaffoldings. Plenty of room for engineered wood, textiles, paper and pulp...
@Trullydearest@amandyobasi1 ... Existence of uncivilised People like you is the reason Nigeria will not get better soon. If he's not popular, the voters should say that with their votes. Abnormal people everywhere for Nigeria
@amandyobasi1 There's no reason why it should be funny at all! The intentional destruction of Nigeria to make people poor, and suffer so that they can be doling out peanuts and crumbs for loyalty, and weaken the people, has no reason to stand! STOP THE ROT 🛑❗❗
@Ohmz___@zaddyofbenin He is talking to oyibo. He has to pronounce stuff na they do if not they won't understand.
The way I speak to Nigerians and oyibo are entirely different
@chumanwokolo@numoore I forgive neither of those heinous crimes against me and my fatherland. I forgive my fatherland for being too weak to defend me against this crimes because the Land itself is also a victim of these rapes.
@numoore@chumanwokolo ... Also, this particular census was a shambolic show and done like most of the projects executed by Nigerian government.
We are therefore, working with figures that was quadriplegic when it was most relevant.
I forgive Nigeria.
@Anite__Evelyn@AfricaFactsZone I will do the same if I am not campaigning to return after previously serving. If they prefer another candidate over the one that prioritised their health, then they should enjoy all they see in the other candidate.
@EmekuIheanyi@ruffydfire This is why I thought that NARD allowing HOs to go was a huge misstep. Now they are alone, in the cold... voiceless. But why do we need to beg to be paid for a very difficult and important job? By the time Tinubu is done with us, we will have nothing left.
@bigjosh_0 Consistence and discipline are the major hacks for med school. However, secondary sch student who made 300+ already have these life skills.
Those who made good grades should be proud of them provided it does not prevent them from chasing the next milestone. I wish I made 300+
@jollynony@HQNigerianArmy Thank you @jollynony for expressing this extremely high level of comprehension. The military using hunger to render soldiers vulnerable, powerless and demotivated should be a shame on the leaders of these forces.
I was 21. NYSC posting: a village clinic in Osun. No light. No water. Just me, a matron in her 60s, and women who walked 3 hours for antenatal.
Day 1, a 16 year old girl came in bleeding and pregnant. Her 40-year old husband said, “It’s normal. First baby always hard.”
Matron took one look at me and said, “Corper, you go learn today.”
We had no ultrasound or blood bank. Just gloves, faith, and a torchlight I held with my mouth while Matron’s hands disappeared inside that child.
For 6 hours we fought. The girl was slipping. Matron prayed in Igala and English. I cried, thinking, “This is why I wanted to japa.” 😂
Then the baby’s cry came; a small, angry boy, alive. The 14-year-old whispered, “Aunty, thank you for not running.” 😭
Covered in blood and sweat, Matron said: “You think this work na for money? This work na for the girls who don’t know their own worth yet. You stay. You fight. You stubborn. Because if we no stubborn, who go be stubborn for them?”
That was 5 years ago.
Today I’m a doctor in Lagos with a clinic in Abule Egba. Every girl who comes in with “normal period pain” that’s been killing her for years reminds me of that torchlight and Matron’s hands. I get stubborn.
I’ve diagnosed 47 cases of advanced PID this year, done 12 fibroid surgeries, and caught 3 girls early before their wombs got damaged.
Ladies, my message is simple:
1. “Normal” pain that stops your school, work, or life? It’s NOT normal.
2. Your body is not “village people.” It’s biology. Test it. Scan it. Know it.
3. Be stubborn about your health. The world will call you dramatic. Be dramatic and alive.
That matron died 2 years ago, but her stubbornness lives in every girl I refuse to let die quietly.
You aren’t lazy, you have what it takes to work hard at a start-up in Kano. Pay is very good, but you have to prove your worth. Previous experience is needed, 9-5, must be a dreamer and a fighter. Push me, push the company, get a slice. E-commerce, logistics, fintech. Inbox me, education, previous experience, can work in Kano, what makes you stand-out. This isn’t a charity position, it’s a do-me I do-you situation. Apply in person.
@chikaville@Ntob @Vicyndysimipeal @chikaville it is not difficult to say you dont know. You cant just throw around concept and when someone seek clarification to understanding , you resort to adhominem
@OurFavOnlineDoc She did not get sudden huge money, I believe the curgar was sold that dream by that little boy. Senseless women chasing sexual gratification with there souls.
