This is an opportunity to share the joy and pain felt during my Visit to an Eastern state in Nigeria.
I left Lagos to fulfil a required scheme as a youth of my nation unknowning to me my life was about to change.
While I expected my daily travel activities to be of triangle shape (Explore, indoor and trade) I ended up creating a star shaped schedule (explore, trade, learn, meet teenagers, teach and commect).
I had the opportunity to organize a learning session for over 1000 teenagers in remote villages, of the state far from the city. The goal was to bring recent educational resources and a sense of connection to communities with limited access.
The journey was as beautiful as the destination. Alongside my studentI, I often visited several natural landscapes, and it was a powerful reminder of how much there is to appreciate in the world. But the most rewarding part was meeting the teenagers. Their eagerness to learn was inspiring and limited access to resources was unsatisfactory to me. We discussed what careers there were aware of and I shared from my experience of emerging technology and web3 with them and the sessions were filled with laughter, curiosity, and a shared sense of hope.
We the elderly teenagers around eventually teamed up to create a community for the teenagers to express their creativity through their interests, we had products in Art, Agriculture and of course computer from them.
Connecting with these young minds and seeing the impact of our efforts was a profound experience. It taught me that while technology can bridge distances, human connection is what truly drives change plus the documentation (printed) knowledge goes a long way in contributing to the awareness and liberation of this teenagers' mind into a world where they become contributors.
This travel experience was a testament to the power of coming together to create a positive ripple effect. It's a reminder that even the smallest action can lead to a significant impact.
Below are a few of the images generated during some sessions.
The best way to gather the teenagers in volume is through the school authorities, so we visited several schools to achieve the goal of putting them in the know about Defi and the world of Blockchain.
The Blue Line has moved 2 million passengers in 2 years; with these additions, 4 million passengers will be conveyed in 1 year.
The trains run every 23 minutes presently. With the new trains, @Lamataonline plans to reduce the waiting time to 10 minutes

Kindly ignore the false rumors circulating that His Eminence the Sultan has declared the Shawwal crescent was not seen in Nigeria. I just spoke with members of our committee at the palace, and they are still gathering reports.

Maybe if you had not gone to LUTH for free ,there would have been enough fund to equip our hospitals to this level. They donโt go to medical schools for free abroad.
