🇨🇳🇳🇬 A Chinese travel creator was trying local food at a market in Nigeria when a group of men stopped him and demanded money.
When he asked why, their explanation was basically: "we’re Nigerian, you’re not, so we can take money from you."
Over roughly 10 kilometers, he says he passed more than 20 checkpoints and was asked for money again and again.
His final travel review?
“Don’t come to Nigeria.”

My organization, Educare, will be committing $100,000 within the next 18 months toward academic research exclusively in Nigeria. We will identify and partner with some universities to deliver the outcomes.
We have identified numerous challenges in the Nigerian education sector. However, our first investment will focus on the development and psychometric standardization of school exams, with critical thinking as a core component.
This initiative will span primary, secondary, and tertiary education, significantly improving the quality of learning outcomes in the country.
It is time to start creating a true Nigerian education system that will move our society forward.
A lot of people know about the problems in Nigeria; it is time we start committing to solving them with meaningful research investments.
