Meet Cynthia Onwuchuruba.
She teaches Mathematics to dropout children in Igbo and Pidgin English, ensuring that every child gets an education regardless of their background. She's a First Class Mathematics graduate of UNIZIK.
Let's retweet to celebrate her! ❤️
I still remember when my cousin lost his job, watched his investments crash, and hit one of the lowest points of his life.
His girlfriend firmly stood by him and told him, "Love is patient, we'll get through this together."
For more than a year, she stayed true to her words.
She supported him, paid for a Crane lifting course, even helped him find a job, and stood by him until life started making sense again.
Then, just when things were finally stabilizing, and he thought it was time to settle down with her, she broke up with him.
She then reconnected with her ex, got married to him, and moved to Canada while living her best life.
To this day, my cousin is still confused.
His biggest question isn't why she left.
It is why she stayed for so long if she already knew she wasn't going to stay forever?
There was a time Nigeria talked about satellites, space missions, science, engineering and the future.
Today, our headlines are dominated by kidnappings, corruption, political drama and survival.
That shift should worry us.
A nation becomes whatever occupies the minds of its young people.
When children grow up hearing about scientists, inventors and astronauts, they dream of building.
When they grow up hearing only about violence, fraud and politics, many begin to believe those are the only paths to relevance.
The tragedy is that we have stopped inspiring our children to even look up.
The future belongs to nations that fill young minds with impossible dreams and then give them the tools to pursue them.
We cannot build a great country if our children are surrounded only by stories of failure.
Things have to change!
🎉 The results are out!
