Always Being Right: Our brains are inefficient machines. We consistently make poor assumptions, misjudge probabilities, misremember facts, give in to cognitive biases, and make decisions based on our emotional whims.

One thing people need to understand is that AC gas is designed to last the lifetime of the car.

If your AC stops cooling properly, it usually means there’s a leak somewhere in the system either small or major.

A tiny leak? You could refill the gas and drive for years without issues.

A major leak? The cooling can disappear within days.

That’s why proper AC repairs can be expensive. A good AC technician won’t just refill the gas they’ll run a leak test to locate and fix the actual problem.

If you’ve eaten in actual foreign restaurants in Lagos, you’ll understand,lol.
Many foreign foods you eat in Nigeria were “Nigerianized” (seasoned,spiced).

If I see or hear anyone compare an abroad Distinction with a Nigerian First Class, …

A Distinction abroad isn’t as rigorous as a Nigerian First Class. And I’m making this claim as someone who holds both a First-Class degree from a Nigerian public university and a Distinction from a U.S. public institution (My master’s was awarded with Distinction, and I completed my PhD coursework with a perfect 4.00/4.00 GPA at an R1 U.S. university.).

First, check the percentage of students who earn a Distinction abroad versus those who earn a First Class in Nigerian “public” universities.

For example: EBSU, Class of 2019. Out of 1,924 graduating students, only six of us earned a First Class, university-wide, across all campuses. Fact-check me (Ebonyi State University, 2019. Only six).

There’s no European or American university where only six students earn a Distinction at an annual graduation ceremony. None! They’re usually in the hundreds, if not thousands, every single semester.

You earned a Distinction in the UK or somewhere in Europe? Congratulations! But don’t ever use that as a yardstick to underrate a Nigerian First-Class degree.

When you hear that only a few persons or no one made First Class at a public university’s convocation in Nigeria, it simply means that the expectations for a First-Class CGPA are “TOO HIGH” and often beyond reach. In fact, as an undergrad, I could count up to 50 students in my class and cohort who would have easily graduated with Distinction if EBSU were a school in the UK or US. They were very, very intelligent guys but couldn’t meet the extremely high First-Class bar.

A 70/100 as an A grade may seem low-stakes until you actually try to achieve it. Nigerian professors are very tough graders. In fact, an average Nigerian university exam is set with two intentions: The primary intention is to make you fail, and the secondary intention is to test your knowledge. For a 3-hour exam, you’d spend most of the time trying to understand the questions, because, if you rush the questions, their first intention is automatically achieved. This explains why in Nigeria, “understanding a question is part of the answer.”

Our education system has its flaws just like any education system anywhere in the world. No system is perfect. But I will not sit back and watch anyone underrate a Nigerian First-Class degree. I have one and I know the intensity of the fire I went through to be among the only six who bagged it in my cohort.

Distinction wey “almost everybody” dey collect for abroad? Nigerian Third-Class graduates dey bag Distinction for abroad normally. Na bad government we get, don’t play with our education system. The rigor choke, and that’s part of the reasons why Nigerians excel everywhere they go.

The problem with UK diaspora Nigerians in particular is that you don't know the history of Black UK immigration, so you don't know your place in that system.

You've never heard of Enoch Powell, or the Windrush era, or "No dogs, Blacks or Irish," or why the UK ever admitted Black migrants in the first place. You think your 2019 "japa" is something that just happened devoid of historical or geopolitical context, based on your personal effort and hard work.

You think your UK skilled worker/care visa makes you a hardworking, educated, taxpaying, contributing member of British society, and you get offended when that recognition is consistently denied to you. Because you don't understand your role in British society and why they gave you that visa.

The first Black UK immigrants in the modern era (the so-called Windrush generation from the Caribbean) were enticed to move to the UK between the late 1940s and the early 1970s, with promises of higher wages than they could get for their skills at home. The immigration pathway was even easier for them than for you, because they were classed as citizens of the British empire, and they did not need visas to move to England.

Due to a shortage of men after WW2, Britain needed labour to rebuild its destroyed infrastructure and revitalise its economy and tax receipts. Hundreds of thousands of men from Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, Grenada, St Lucia, etc brought their skills, energy and families to contribute to the UK, like you lot are doing today. The post-WW2 London Underground and the wider Transport For London network were built and staffed almost entirely by Jamaican men. At a point, TFL opened recruitment offices in the Caribbean to recruit migrants directly from there - such was its dependence on West Indian migrants to keep London's economy functioning (sound familiar?)

There is nothing great about the UK's infrastructure today that our Caribbean cousins did not significantly contribute toward. They literally rebuilt the UK's capital and significantly contributed to the growth of other cities like Birmingham, Manchester and Bradford. And after all these undeniable contributions, how did the story end?

In 2015, the UK Home Office started hunting down the surviving members of this generation, claiming that they had no legal right to be in the UK, and they should leave within 30 days or be deported to countries some of them had left before they gained independence. In the 30 years before 2015, the children and grandchildren of these Black migrants who built the UK had been economically and socially converted into an underclass that was overrepresented in crime statistics and invisible practically everywhere else except sports and entertainment.

If you knew all this, you'd have realised by now that your "Skilled Worker Visa" or "Care Worker Visa" is just Windrush Part II, and those "Jamo" people some of you look down on and warn your children against associating with, are exactly what the UK is going to turn your children and grandchildren into, if it isn't merciful enough to deport you and them first. They once used West Indian labour to carry out essential functions that they couldn't themselves, until their population recovered and they didn't need those blackies anymore. They're simply doing the same thing again, with a bit of extra English to massage your ego and make you feel important.

Ultimately your story in the UK will play out the same way as that of our cousins from across the Atlantic - economically and socially restricted to ghettos in a few cities where your children have only 2 real possibilities open to them: somehow make it as a professional footballer, or drop out of school and become a drug dealer in Hounslow with a Drill mixtape on Soundcloud. You and your kids will then be invoked by politicians as a "social burden on the British state" and become the face of the immigration Bogeyman they trot out to white voters every election.

History is very important.
