Policy is meant to remove ambiguity.
If people need to use common sense when applying a policy, the policy has failed and must be discarded or modified.
One sure thing to happen today is UBA HR sending out a memo about that incident, talking about how TOE is no longer part of the bank, and as such, the first name basis doesn't apply to him.
this is insane. i genuinely don't understand why ambitious people aren't shown this lecture before their careers start consuming their entire lives.
clayton christensen spent his career studying why successful companies collapse. in his final class, he asked students to apply the theory to themselves: if you keep allocating your time the same way, what life are you actually building?
he had already seen the answer in his own harvard mba class. everyone looked successful at the fifth reunion; by the 10th, 15th, 20th, and 25th, many were unhappy, divorced, and living far from their children.
work shows you the score immediately. close a sale, ship a product, finish a presentation, earn a promotion, get paid.
an hour with your child may produce nothing you can measure today; it may take 20 years to understand what that hour built. so the next free hour goes back to work, one rational decision at a time.
this is how people build lives they never planned: through hundreds of right decisions that lead in the wrong direction, day after day.
money, titles, and headcount are easy to count. christensen believed a life should be measured by the people who became better because you were there.
he died in 2020.
one question remains: if someone saw only where your time, energy, and attention went this year, what would they think actually mattered to you?
the full 19-minute lecture is in the video below.
Dear Young Nigerians,
Think about the things you have had to spend more on, wait longer for or give up because of the realities of living in Nigeria.
Maybe it is the transport fare that went up after the latest fuel increase. The rising price of food. The cost of keeping your phone charged. The hours spent on the road because of bad infrastructure. Or an opportunity you had to let go because you simply could not afford it.
These everyday realities can shape how we live, work, study, earn and plan for the future.
With International Youth Day coming up on August 12, we want to hear your story.
What has being Nigerian cost you?
Tell us what it has cost you at [email protected].
Your story can help put a face to the numbers and show what these realities look like for young Nigerians.

A part of me (more like 99%) has this notion that the wife ratted her husband out to this man.
If she didnt, then someone (probably someone whom the wife confided in) within the inner circle of this man did the job
"Your wife is healthy. If she has s€xual intercourse with another man, she will get pregnant. You're the one with a zero sperm count."

@Heurak@just_Korede@sepril23NG Good question

He did not wore police uniform come and he came alone he didn’t call anyone on phone on that day and within 5mins he asked me to check if have received the money
This is so ridiculous. What's the population density of most places in nigeria?
Whats the purchasing powers of those places?
How many people in those places eat akara out of their "disposable" incomes on a daily?
If you fry akara in a good location, after all cost, you make N20/akara and you sell 500 pieces per day. That is N10k/day, N60k/6 day week and N240k/month. Better than bank job.
@Olota48 People talking about him begging god for another chance haven't been in this situation. Nothing is on his mind atm, the only three things on his mind are sleep, vomit and shit. Nothing else!
