Being driven around while the driver is having a full conversation on the phone, sometimes in a language I don’t understand, is extremely uncomfortable and makes me feel unsafe. Passengers deserve better.
@UberUK@UberUKI_Support something seriously needs to be done about drivers being on phone calls throughout the entire journey. It’s not an occasional thing anymore, it happens regularly.
You need to be a visionary, at least for your own life.
I recently realised that every other person does not have the ability to create a mental picture of their future, hold on to it and work towards it regardless of their present circumstances.
It was my wife who pointed this out to me. She said some people cannot lead even themselves. instead, they’re loyal followers. They need to be told what to do. They can vaguely describe their future, but lack the ability to formalise it and create an actionable plan, let alone the commitment and consistency to execute that plan.
For people like this, I think it makes sense to find a visionary with similar interests and follow in their footsteps. I do think finding that visionary is more difficult than leading yourself, but it is better than leaving everything to chance.
Some people would have turned out differently if they had someone else who showed them that it is possible to get a job in NNPC, scholarships abroad, etc, without 'connections'.
Since they can’t imagine a better life for themselves, their actions/inactions are motivated by incentives, not vision.
It took a while for me to believe my wife because it’s hard to even imagine that some human beings live like this.
You hear them say things like "school na scam" or use criminals like internet fraudsters as references in their arguments because to them, incentives are all that matters.
They cannot create their own world in their mind, so they reach out to what they consider the 'real world', observe and adopt behaviours the 'real world' rewards.
These are the people who want to study medicine, law or engineering, and more recently want to become software engineers because in the 'real world', there are incentives to pursue these career paths. It is the same explanation for people who have explored UI/UX design, forex, crypto, sports betting, social media influencing, etc, all in their 20s. It looks like hard work, but it isn’t.

Do you know what's more painful about Ochanya's predicament?
She was such a brilliant and intelligent girl. She said she wanted to be a medical doctor when she grows up.
Winifred's mum returned to the village one Christmas.
Decided to take Ochanya to the City to get good education since she was sound and intelligent. Yet, if was Ochanya's biological parents that paid her school fees.
And that was the end of her dreams, her ambition, and her life.
Winifred's dad and brother raped her for five years till she d!ed.
Guess what!
The rapists children are doing so well in life.
Winifred is now a lawyer and a social media influencer.
Victor is doing so well in his musical career.
Ihotu, the rapist's last born who was in the same class with Ochanya is in her 200level in Benue State University.
Ochanya could have been 21years now, and probably in her 200level studying her dream course, Medicine and Surgery in Benue State University.
But she was used as the sacrificial lamb.
Can I tell you something?
Ochanya has a very strong spirit that keeps crying out for justice every now and then.
Everytime people think the case has been swept under the carpet, then Winifred makes another mistake and then #JusticeforOchanya begins to trend.
This time around, with you, I and millions of Nigerians solidly behind her shouting for justice.
This time around, we will not allow the case to be swept under the carpet like it was in 2018.
Until justice prevails, we remain Ochanya's voice.
Remember, silence in the face of injustice is INJUSTICE—and evil.

@chisomholic@xdealsgadgets For many who don't understand the magnitude of this evil, vile, abominable, heinous and ungodly act on that small innocent girl by that rvpist family.
Here is a much better context
I tweeted this image below. The very first time I read about the innocent, young child.
Do you know how useless you have to be as a father for your daughter to have caught her elder brother rvping his young cousin and instead of doing the right thing as the leader of the family, you had to join your son in defiling your own niece?.
Do you know how crazy that is?.
Nothing we do can help Ochanya. We already failed her, but there are many other girls currently going through what Ochanya went through. They are the ones we can help by insisting on #JusticeForOchanya
