Another form of low self-esteem is being too available for people who've shown you, time & time again, that they don't value your time, effort, or presence. It's hard, but stop chasing what's not choosing you. Regulate your nervous system, protect your peace and worth. Cheers✌🏻
Join us for the 1st Africa Conference 2026 Quarterly Convening as we explore "Reimagining Elections in Africa: Nigeria and Kenya as Case Studies."
This important conversation will examine how African democracies can strengthen electoral integrity, rebuild public trust, and advance credible elections through citizen-led reforms.

AI is changing how we learn—fast. It’s helping teachers, supporting students, and making schools smarter. But how do we make sure young people are ready for the jobs of tomorrow?

A WARNING TO THE PRESIDENT @officialABAT , GOVERNMENT @NigeriaGov , @nassnigeria@NGRSenate@HouseNGR Governors’ Forum @NGFSecretariat and State Houses of Assembly AND THE NIGERIAN POLITICAL CLASS OF NIGERIA AT LARGE:
DO NOT DARE WISH OUR CHILDREN “HAPPY CHILDREN’S DAY” TODAY .
To the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the Vice President, the Governors of the 36 States, the Federal Executive Council, the Members of the National Assembly, the State Houses of Assembly, and the entire political class that has captured and destroyed the Nigeria State:
Do not dare.
Do not dare open your mouths on May 27 to wish Nigerian children a “Happy Children’s Day.” Do not dare release the recycled, ghost-written platitudes your media handlers have already drafted. Do not dare stand in front of cameras, surrounded by carefully arranged children in matching uniforms, to perform a tenderness you have never extended to the millions of Nigerian children you have abandoned, betrayed, and condemned to lives of suffering.
You have no moral standing to wish anything to Nigerian children. None.
Consider what you are dishonorably wishing them.
You are wishing “Happy Children’s Day” to the 39 students and 7 teachers seized only days ago, on 15 May 2026, from a secondary school and two primary schools in Ahoro Esinele community in Oriire district of Oyo State- children aged between two and sixteen , snatched from the southwest in a chilling expansion of a terror that you swore would be confined to the north.
You are wishing “Happy Children’s Day” to the 25 schoolgirls of the Government Girls Comprehensive Secondary School in Maga, Wasagu/Danko, Kebbi State, taken from their hostel at dawn on 18 November 2025, after gunmen killed the vice principal and most of whom are still missing as I write.
You are wishing “Happy Children’s Day” to the 303 students and 12 teachers of St. Mary’s Catholic Primary and Secondary School in Papiri, Niger State, seized on 21 November 2025 - children aged 10 to 18, boys and girls- whose abduction forced more than 20,000 Nigerian schools to close indefinitely .
You are wishing “Happy Children’s Day” to the 287 students of the Government Secondary School in Kuriga, Kaduna State, taken by gunmen on motorcycles on 7 March 2024 in broad daylight while you and your political colleagues posed for swearing-in photographs.
You are wishing “Happy Children’s Day” to the 15 children of Gidan Bakuso, Sokoto State, seized from their boarding school on 9 March 2024 as they slept.
You are wishing to the Chibok girls- over 90 of whom are still missing, twelve years after April 14, 2014, while you have moved on, and for your repugnant luxury, speedily rebuilt and redecorated Aso Villa, bought opulent hideous cars, and rotated power among yourselves as if those girls never existed. But their parents who gave birth to them continue to grieve and daily rain curses on the evil leaders that have shown no empathy towards them and their abducted daughters.
You are wishing “Happy Children’s Day” to the children of Dapchi, Kankara, Kagara, Jangebe, Afaka, Greenfield, Bethel Baptist, Tegina - and to the many whose abductions never made the headlines because Nigeria had run out of capacity to grieve.
You are wishing “Happy Children’s Day” to the at least 1,799 students seized in a dozen of the largest abductions since Chibok , and to the 670 children affected by at least 10 school kidnappings in less than two years - a litany of horror compiled not by your security agencies, but by international human rights organisations doing the work your government refuses to do.

🤔 Are aid agencies paying attention to what works in education?
Some approaches, like targeted instruction and structured pedagogy, deliver far greater learning gains for the same cost. But are they being used?
New analysis from @angrist_noam👇

Convention wisdom is that bioweapons are humanity's greatest weakness – 100x cheaper to make than to defend against.
Andrew Snyder-Beattie thinks conventional wisdom is likely wrong.
He has a plan cheap enough to do without government. Useful even in worst case scenarios like mirror bacteria. Effective enough to save most people.
In one of my all-time fav interviews he lays out a low-tech 4-step approach developed by his research team at Open Philanthropy, to fix a problem most have thought unsolvable.
ASB is hiring for many roles in this project from logistics to biotech to manufacturing, and has $100s millions to deploy. Enjoy, links below!
2:10 How bad it could get
9:19 The worst-case scenario: mirror bacteria
18:14 Why low-tech
25:30 Prevention
31:21 The “4 pillars” plan
33:09 ASB is hiring now to make this happen
35:11 Everyone was wrong: biorisks are defence dominant
40:23 Pillar 1: Lungs
55:53 Pillar 2: Biohardening
1:15:19 Pillar 3: Detection
1:28:40 Pillar 4: The wrench hypothesis
1:40:12 The plan's biggest weaknesses
1:44:44 Would chaos make this impossible to pull off?
1:51:50 Would rogue AI make bioweapons?
1:57:57 We can feed the world even if all the plants die
2:07:03 Could a bioweapon make the Earth uninhabitable?
2:09:35 What ASB is hiring for
2:30:27 How to protect yourself and your family

@peculiarchichii Most times in life we lose to gain. The Analyst for now is only honing her expertise, a time will come when the 4.8m would be less than her consultation fee. Its a gradual process, life is in stages.
After watching this ChelseaVsManU banta
The truth is most men are more loyal to their football club than their marriage.
Imagine if we flipped that. Divorce rates would crash and marriages would be undefeated seasons.
