The biggest myth about community?
That you have to build one.
There is a Yoruba proverb that says:
"What you are looking for is already in your pocket."
Maybe your community already exists.
You just call it something else.

The first thing Singapore did was to educate its people.
This journey is not even going to be long.
Nigerians are already very smart people.
Give quality primary and secondary education.
Bring in companies that can employ thousands of people.
Set them up in several states. See this mining situation. Get a hold of it and make it a very formal sector.
Allow the people who want to sell Akara and other things access to soft loans. Create a structure with every bank to help them be accountable. Like a credit score.
Fix electricity.
If itโs too hard to change all the lines, create solar plants for different clusters while you take a few years to fix power lines to be efficient.
Step by step, country will be better.
I donโt know why we donโt have a leader that wants to do this.
Itโs not rocket science.
Focus on direction, not speed. The line is yours to shape, but only if youโre still on it. So, stay on the bus. Stay on the f*&#ing bus.

They need better listeners.
There will always be another tool, platform, or strategy.
The real skill is learning to meet people where they are instead of constantly redirecting them somewhere else.

@Olori_Ade__@AweniOnibata You cannot be in love with stupidity. Let a fool go be with another fool, that makes sense. A fool and a wise person in the name of love is a foolish venture. No need to sugarcoat foolishness.
@AweniOnibata You listened to the end? I mistakenly switched into my personal Insta this morning, saw a video from my crush in uni days talking about how Bulaba is great. I wanted to throw up, I was like what was I thinking crushing on a dumb one like this. I was genuinely disgusted.
