I've spent the last several months researching, travelling, and studying why countries like Singapore, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Canada and Finland built some of the world's best public education systems.

One thing became clear:

Nigeria doesn't just have an education problem. We have a school management problem.

Today, I'm releasing a white paper that proposes a new way to transform our public schools, keeping them publicly owned while introducing world-class management and accountability.

This isn't about politics.

It's about giving every Nigerian child the opportunity to attend a world-class public school.

I hope this sparks one of the most important conversations our country has had about education.

Read it. Criticise it. Improve it. Share it.

If we get education right, we change Nigeria.

The whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

The kind of ethnic supremacy, ethnic bigotry and ethnic essentialism and xenophobia I have heard from Nigerians is honestly as virulent and extreme as any racism I have ever heard or experienced. The things I have heard and read during this election cycle alone have shocked me to my core.

We can talk about afrophobia or xenophobia in South Africa but Nigeria matches or surpasses every violently insular instinct that they have. They just do it to fellow Nigerians who they do not consider as people who deserve to be in the same country as they are.

Multiple times, I have stumbled upon hundreds of Nigerians in Spaces online openly expressing the kind of violent xenophobia against Nigerians of other ethnicities that would make even white christian nationalists shudder.

Sometimes people ask me, aren't you afraid of racism in Europe? I remind them that the sort of violent ethnic bigotry and tribalism I have experienced in Nigeria and from and among Nigerians, is child's play compared to any racism I might have experienced in Europe. Racism might kill you. Nigerian bigotry will kill you or die trying.

All xenophobia is bad, but Nigerians as a group cannot claim moral superiority over South Africans who hunt African migrants in the streets when call each other aliens and foreigners and when they hunt each other.

One might argue, that if Nigerian ethnicities were different races, it would be one of the most racist places on earth.

Some people often wonder why some Nigerians abroad join right wing parties/movements in the US or Europe. They are shocked to find MAGA supporters or AFD members that have Nigerian heritage. I tell those people only to look inside Nigeria and they will find exactly the same kind of rhetoric or worse, only directed at people who look like them. There are people today in Nigeria who call themselves Yoruba or Igbo (insert other ethnicity) conservatives (by which they mean supremacist) who boldly organise themselves online along the same racist principles. I have heard some of them cite books and texts by core white supremacists, only replacing white with their ethnicity.

Whoever will change Nigeria has a lot of work on their hands.

They helped their students conquer the world.

Their schools are Evergreen Schools Enugu and Diamond Special College Owerri.

@Iam_Imanuel @TheAjakeManger Yes, healthy competition is okay, your point is valid, but I maintain that it's not now. Collaboration first, then we compete. Things are really bad right now. All the competition so far where has it led us?

[Iphy @Iphyzi]

@Iam_Imanuel @TheAjakeManger Shouldn't even spark competition if not for stupid bigotry. It should spark collaboration across the entire country. We are all feeling the effects of poor quality education. Collaboration, not envy.

Thank you for all you do. May you reap your reward in this lifetime.

There is a false tribal narrative being circulated claiming that we dropped a Yoruba child to replace him with an Igbo child for the International STEM Olympiad in Rome.

That claim is completely false.

This is the full live stream of the 2026 South East Maths Olympiad Grand Finale, where the winners emerged. Our selection process was conducted publicly because we believe transparency is the best way to protect integrity.

We deliberately stream our competitions live so everyone can see how winners are determined. Our goal is simple: ensure that the right children win based on merit, not ethnicity, religion, connections or influence.

We are building a generation that believes hard work is rewarded. Merit is not negotiable.

Watch the full Afia TV live broadcast and judge the process for yourself: https://t.co/hByUPQkdQv

Nigeria's children deserve better than tribal propaganda. They deserve fairness.

We will not renovate government owned schools anymore nor offer to train their teachers. They have the resources to do that and they can fix them if they wish.

For ISEE we will build modular container schools across communities in the South East, hire and train our own teachers, use of own 21st century globally relevant blended curriculum to train the children.

We will also give out scholarships, sponsor sports competitions, support technical education, apprenticeship education, invest in science and innovations.

We must remain independent and laser focused with top level management of our investments.

Young People of Nigeria, you need to pay attention to what is coming. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency may create pockets of wealth, and artificial intelligence will certainly reshape industries, but neither is likely to deliver the broad-based economic alpha for Nigeria in the coming decade. AI, in particular, requires enormous capital, reliable electricity, deep research ecosystems, and computational infrastructure. For now, Nigeria is more likely to participate in AI primarily at the consumer and application layers rather than as a dominant producer of foundational technologies.

But there is something else that could transform Nigeria in a profound way: the Capital Market. Interestingly, the capital market has already surpassed agriculture as the largest component of Nigeria's GDP, yet I do not sense enough excitement among our young people. That concerns me because Nigeria's economic evolution has historically been remarkably predictable.

If you study Nigeria's business history closely, you will notice a pattern: roughly every decade, the economy undergoes a structural redesign driven by a new operating system. These redesigns rarely announce themselves loudly, but when they arrive, they reorder winners, redraw value chains, and quietly retire old playbooks.

In the 1990s, the new generation banks emerged with technology as their weapon. They deployed VSAT systems to connect branches, collapsed distance, and made banking largely location-agnostic. Overnight, proximity lost its power, and legacy institutions had to reinvent themselves or gradually fade.

Then came the 2000s and the GSM revolution. Mobile telephony did far more than connect calls. It rewired commerce, accelerated coordination, expanded markets, and raised national productivity. A new layer of economic energy entered the system.

The 2010s deepened that transformation. Phones ceased to be mere communication devices and became economic terminals - mini banks, mini schools, mini offices, and marketplaces in our pockets. Economic life moved into the palm of the hand.

Today, we are living through the decade of application utility. Young people are recombining APIs, stacking digital tools, and fixing frictions across payments, logistics, healthcare, commerce, and education. But the next great inflection point is already visible.

Because of the Investment and Securities Act (ISA) 2025, the 2030s will likely become Nigeria's Capital Market Decade. ISA 2025 is one of the most consequential pieces of business legislation enacted in Nigeria in a generation. It does not merely amend regulations; it expands the imagination of what can exist within our markets. New asset classes will emerge. New instruments will be engineered. New forms of wealth will be created.

I want you to pay attention to the capital market https://t.co/ggYVTIVfI8
