All this and youβre still making five yr plans. All this and you still worry about double texting. All this and youβre still counting calories and sucking in your stomach. All this and you still canβt forgive your parents. All this and youβre still waiting for someone to go first

What a story! A janitor at a Yale University teaching hospital earned a college degree while working full time, then went to med school and is now returning to the same hospital as a resident in anesthesiology! https://t.co/STrVfb4q9l Mentors matter so much!
Nigerians are in the comments complaining about how poor their salaries are, and rightfully so. But when itβs time to get involved in the decisions that shape those outcomes, tribe and religion suddenly take over.
Itβs strange how people can be united by hardship, yet divided by identity, even when those divisions donβt actually change anything about their reality.
Igbo Christians remove the cap. They know what it means as a Christian you lower your self when you speak to God, and guess what that is correct and the ultimate respect to God.
When you speak to your chi, or your ancestors you donβt remove your cap because you are their ontological equal. But when you speak to the Supreme God who made all of it, Nwanne remove that thing.

Over the weekend... I built an open-source Palantir! π
It visualizes these:
- Country conflict intelligence
- Military bases locations
- Near real-time threat mapping
- Deep research/Intel on entities like Hezbollah or any groups
Learn wars, conflicts, military bases and history of nations with the Global threat map. π§

As someone who lived in Lagos before exiting, I believe that to genuinely enjoy Lagos, you must fall into one of four categories:
(1) Youβre an occasional IJGB visitor, returning intermittently and selectively, buoyed mostly by nostalgia and the romance of distance.
(2) You have never lived in a properly functioning city outside Nigeria for more than 3 consecutive months; a strenuous visit to Zanzibar or Kenya every other year does not qualify.
(3) Your income, social or other advantages are so tightly coupled to Lagos that leaving would require an intolerable loss of status, access, or opportunity making you a rational actor under enormous constraints.
(4) You are temperamentally suited to chaos and tolerant of disorder in a manner that is so unusual, it would be best explained by a rare combination of low intelligence, a comfortingly low threshold for environmental expectations, and the possession of just the right physical resilience required to absorb the daily friction.
Outside these categories, Lagos is utterly a hell hole. I will always stand by this. More than half the worldβs population would struggle to believe it is even possible to live under conditions this hostile especially because those conditions are obscured by a remarkable asymmetry between everyday lived experience and the cityβs relentless PR.
