Nigeria has a rape, pedophilia and femicide problem.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

Nigeria has now been delisted from the International Maths Olympiad, whose finals are happening in Shanghai, China, this July.

It is one of the most prestigious academic competitions in the world.

Nigeria can now only participate as an observer nation, while other countries can participate fully.

This was because of the Ministry of Education’s inability to fund students for 4 consecutive years through National Mathematical Center.

It’s a big shame for Nigeria.

They blame systemic issues on the HCWs.

1. They hate the doctor because they spend a long time before being seen in a public hospital. Forgetting it’s one doctor alone seeing over 40 patients.

2. They hate the nurse because she’s not by their bedside to feed and change diapers every time. Forgetting she’s the only one nursing over 25 patients.

3. They hate that HCWs don’t run like it’s portrayed in movies. Forgetting the HCW here is overworked and underpaid unlike the ones in movies.

4. They hate that the HCWs send them to buy other things and do some tests outside. Forgetting that it’s not even the HCWs duty to keep those things in the hospital.

People don't say it much, but financial stability has a large effect on how well you do in medical school
It's not easy to be hungry and be chasing distinctions

Beauty standard koor

[Alma Asinobi @almaasinobi]

There’s nobody in this world that can gaslight you more than a braider who wants to use gel on your hair.

[Rage🌸✨️ @softangrygirl]

I think most of us who are not slim do not understand the reality of being slim in a country that strongly praises being thick. You can look in the mirror, see a soft curve, and still feel like it is not enough because you are constantly told that being slim equals being straight and that is something to fix.

There is also the everyday struggle people don’t talk about having to search endlessly for your size, not finding it, and constantly tailoring clothes just to feel like they fit your body properly.

And beyond that, there are the comments. Being called flat, a broomstick, a twig. Being mocked for your neckline or lack of curves. Even being sexualized in uncomfortable ways, like your body is something to joke about. These things affect how you see yourself over time.

What makes it harder is when those experiences are dismissed, especially by women like ourselves, as if slim women cannot be hurt because of beauty standards. Yes, fat women face very real and harsh body-shaming too, and that should never be ignored. But that does not mean slim women are not also dealing with pressure, criticism, and insecurity.

It also needs to be said that the label “fat” is sometimes used very loosely. A lot of people who call themselves fat are actually thick or still within what many African contexts would see as attractive. And it shows how extreme beauty standards have become, where people are increasingly dissatisfied with bodies that are not even outside the range of what is socially desired.

This whole idea and mindset that only one group can be the “real” victim, is what has led you people into invalidating others instead of understanding them.

In reality, we are dealing with the same beauty standard from different sides.
We are on opposite ends of the same beauty standard system, and it harms all of us in different ways.

@teesmmm Getting squeezed and asking you to join a sit cos you won’t hold too much space😭

[khaleesi🧍🏽‍♀️ @shelovesore]

Oh so we’re speaking on bodyshaming slim people now and you guys want to pretend it doesn’t exist??

Please it’s dishonesty I don’t like. It’s as bad as our friends bodyshaming us and laughing it off as a joke cos it’s meant to be a compliment..??

Acknowledging that slim people get bodyshamed as well doesn’t affect also acknowledging that fat people get bodyshamed. You people shouldn’t even do this please
