I went to unilag yesterday for the first time, and I can't lie I'm very jealous, no school is touching that level of exposure in Nigeria.

😭 A large chunk of them have active LinkedIn pages.

They are always doing something that prepares them for the real world. OOU never offered me such 💔💔

You guys don't really know how primitive we are. Do you know it's an anomaly for everyone to be building borehole in their houses?

90% of Nigerians don't know what Central water management is. In 2026.

We have a Ministry of Water Resources, btw.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

One thing that deeply worries me about Nigeria is this:

Some dreams are almost impossible to achieve if you're born, raised, and educated here.

Want to become an astronaut? There is virtually no pathway.

Want to become a world-class professional footballer? For most talented children, the route is far harder than it should be because the development ecosystem is weak.

And there are many other careers where your biggest obstacle isn't your talent, it's your geography.

This is why some Nigerians have to leave the country, not because they hate Nigeria, but because that's the only way to fully pursue their dreams.

That should concern all of us.

A child's future should be determined by their ability and hard work, not by the accident of where they were born.

Nigeria has no shortage of talent.

What we're missing is a system that allows talent to become greatness.

[Aproko Doctor Global @aproko_doctor]

Nigeria keeps saying it doesn’t have enough doctors.

We have only about 50,000 doctors serving over 200 million people. That's 1 Doctor to over 4,000 patients.

You'd expect every doctor willing to serve to be encouraged.

Instead, one is detained after carrying out a menstrual hygiene outreach in Kaduna State.

Another 238 young doctors who returned home to practise wake up to an unexplained increase in their induction fees from ₦265,000 to over ₦415,000.

We cannot keep discouraging the very people we desperately need.

I respectfully appeal to the @KadunaMOH, @GovKaduna, @WHONigeria, @NGRSenate, @NGRPresident, and @Fmohnigeria to ensure Dr Al-Amin regains his freedom, and to the @MDCNOfficial to review this new fee.

If you all noticed yesterday, i was not really online. I blacked out during a surgery yesterday. I was lucky that the assistant surgeon was a very capable hand to continue and complete the surgery. I recovered early hours of this morning.

I hadn't had sleep for 6 weeks. In Nigeria, one Doctor does the work of 50 Doctors and this is not an exaggeration. The government knows about this but simply DOESN'T CARE. Life means nothing to them. Only money and power retention is important.

Our colleagues are also a very big part of the problem. Shame on our Medical elders generally. Shame on the government.

[Olúwatósìn Olaseinde @tosinolaseinde]

Pls stay away from drugs. A young person I know that has experienced success and with even more insane potential is spiraling under the influence of drugs. Drugs doesn’t care about your potential. It is there to kill and suffocate. There is nothing recreational about it.

A policeman shot me in 2011. The bullet shattered my hand. The Federal High Court said they must pay for the reconstructive surgery.

That was over ten years ago.

The police have ignored the order. I am left with two wounds: one in my hand, one in my soul from the injustice.

I need reconstructive surgery for my livelihood and my family's sake. The police refuse. Will you stand with me?

I have friends who are older and very fit because of their lifestyle. They don't drink or smoke and exercise daily. They also have the most unfit kids who don't follow their example. This has always worried me as I am raising young children. I have also seen families with hard-working and wealthy parents who raise the laziest and most entitled children.

We always want our children to do better than us, but when and where does this go wrong for most people? I think it comes from the time and attention we personally give our kids and the lapses we allow.

My wife and I are early risers. I have a particular sleep problem I am still trying to solve, but my kids can sleep all day on vacation if you let them. A friend with an older son who had just graduated and was back home, jobless, used to tell me how alarmed he was that the son would go out all night, come back early in the morning, and sleep all day.

I told him then that if he didn't force him to change that habit, he would remain jobless and stay with his parents longer. They eventually forced him to change, and he moved out. He has a job now and struggles a lot. His parents are concerned that he isn't thriving. He is now almost 30, and I think about this all the time. At 25, I was a beast and had started many businesses.

While we want our kids and young adults to experience life on their own terms in a world vastly different from the one we grew up in, we can't help but notice that others whose children were more disciplined are thriving better. One indicator I have seen that correlates with success in younger people is fitness.

A friend’s son started going to the gym regularly, and he even inspired his cousins to do so. I checked on LinkedIn recently, and he is doing exceptionally well as a lawyer and investment banker without any family connections or assistance. His younger cousins, who are looking up to him, are following in his footsteps. I decided to get my kids to spend more time with him.

The role models our children need may be closer to their age than ours. It is why we need to amplify the lifestyles of young, disciplined, and successful people more. Not every person will make it through creative pursuits. I stress this to my kids all the time. There are billions of YouTube channels, but there is only one MrBeast or IShowSpeed.

Social media is highlighting more unrealistic role models than the most useful ones. My daughter is likely one of the most intelligent young children that I know, but because she doesn't want to be seen as a nerd, she is adapting to popular culture to blend in, in a way that scares me. This sometimes affects the way she learns. While I don't want to restrict her now from experiencing the world, I have realized that she needs different role models.

My son’s role models are nerds, and he nerds out in ways that surprise me and it is also worrying. We can be watching a movie, and he goes online to research it and summarise the plot so he can leave to code. He is not experiencing life enough outside the internet.

They will either eventually be ok in a world very different from ours or struggle in a world that becomes worse than ours, without the skills to build personal resilience and strong social skills.

I recently had a personal experience that made me realize I was fortunate to have left home early and to have different role models from my parents. Having a broken home led to different outcomes for my siblings and me, but the fact that I had strong personalities like my mother’s uncle and the uncles I grew up around helped me learn a lot more about life and priorities.

The world is a very complex place, and life is not a bed of roses. While we want the best outcomes for our kids, we have to finally admit that they will learn far more from others than they will ever learn from us. The best thing we can do for them is expose them to the right kind of people early enough, then hope and pray that we didn't misread those people.
