Yet every time we reached what looked like the finish line, the definition of “enough” shifted again.
This is what I call **The Generation of Goalposts**—a generation navigating an unstable definition of readiness. Always almost employable.
The Generation of Goalposts**
We were told to go to school.
We went.
We were told to get a degree—so we did.
We were told to specialise—so we returned for a Master’s.
And now, we are being told to get skills.
I want that to sit properly for a moment.
Because there is a generation of young people who did everything that was asked of us. Not casually. Not half-heartedly. But with belief, effort, and sacrifice.We followed the instructions faithfully.
Nigeria’s problem is not APC or Tinubu.
Leadership is not a party trait.
Someone from the same party tomorrow could outperform everyone.
Our real problem?
We reduce complex issues to one group instead of fixing the system.

Look at the hordes of men in that video, both old and young, chasing after women to sexually assault and rape and not one man, vigilante group o, youth o, elderly o, not one man, could stop them and tell them how wrong what they’re doing is. A generation of deviants .
They deceived you into believing that feminists are bitter and angry women, or women without fathers, or women who hate men.
They made you dislike feminists and feminism.
And they made you fall in love with misogyny.
Some of your papa's and mama's even laugh at feminists on stage, and you laugh with them. You are laughing with people whose voices are loud about submission but never about injustice.
You are laughing with people in armored cars and armed guards, while you are exposed to rape or kidnapping every day.
My dear, you are not hurting feminists. You are hurting yourself.
Keep laughing with people who observe table manners while you are in pain.
A RAPE FESTIVAL happened in OZORO DELTA STATE a couple of hours ago.
Yes, you read that right.
A RAPE FESTIVAL.
Can you see why WOMEN ARE NOT ANGRY ENOUGH?
No male adult or wise men stepped in to stop it.
NO MAN tried to stop the barbaric act they call culture.
ANY CULTURE THAT STRIPS SOMEONE ELSE OF THEIR FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHT IS PSYCHOTIC.
But if you send out only one ship and it sinks, the journey ends.
So I build, I delegate, and I keep the harbour strong.
You really to learn to delegate.. I have done one thing before and I have done several things before. I know the difference
My friend said I should focus my energy on one thing.”
But here’s what I’ve learnt: sometimes you must send out several ships.
Not even different missions, the same mission, different programmes.
Some ships will return with treasure. Some may not.
