EndSARS Activist Says Police Torture Left Him With Eye, Hearing Problems; Alleges N10Million Court Award Unpaid | Sahara Reporters https://t.co/BwCZA1S8C6
We have a collective penchant for platforming silliness.
America, whose social culture we constantly try to imitate, is also firmly grounded in the arts, fashion, science, innovation and serious intellectual discourse, alongside celebrity culture and social fads.
In Nigeria, almost every other institution is failing, while social media trends and empty fads increasingly shape how people think, behave and define success.
People are rewarded for doing the lewdest and most outrageous things for views. Cameras are constantly pushed into peopleโs faces, and individuals with little of value to contribute are repeatedly given platforms simply because controversy attracts attention.
What example are we setting for children who absorb everything they see, especially in an era where school na scam has become a popular mantra?
We are slowly becoming a society that teaches young people to prioritise attending social events, chasing exotic cars, begging celebrities for money and recording every encounter for content.
A society cannot develop when visibility is valued more than knowledge, hard work, dignity and actual contribution.

Leaping for Joy!
Four years ago, Ruth Usoro missed out on a podium placement when she competed at the Birmingham 2022 Games.
Now in Glasgow, she leaves with a Silver๐ฅ medal, continuing Nigeria's tradition of winning a medal in women's Long Jump.
Before Ella Onojuvwevwo, only three Nigerian women went under 50s in the 400m.
This season, Onojuvwevwo has gone under 50s twice, and has a Personal Best of 49.47s.
Her future is very bright, and she is going to be a big superstar for Nigeria.
Moment white people were left amazed after watching a group of drummers play the Yoruba gรกngan (talking drum) at Jazz Cafe, London. They couldnโt stop shaking their heads and shouting in amazement. ๐๐ฅ
