Dear Alex Onyia @winexviv,
Concerned Nigerians have read your recent tweet where you said the Ministry of Education is demanding total handover of the Olympiads portfolio so they can sponsor them with government funds.
Please don’t fall for the illusion that the federal government is selling you.
They didn’t care about these Olympiads for 7 years. Now that you’ve single-handedly redefined education and put the finest brains among our teens on the global map, they suddenly want to “sponsor” everything.
Don’t let them politicize your hard work, which they will definitely do if you emotionally allow them.
They will introduce tribalism, disqualify the best students, and push incompetent ones forward just as they’ve always done.
Look at our athletes under government sponsorship. How many times have they missed international appearances?
This is classic Tinubu and APC style.
Please protect what you’ve built.
Our children deserve merit, not politics.
RT by Lending your voice 🙏
Let it be on record that the 3 most intelligent mathematicians on earth under 15yrs old are Igbo kids from southeast Nigeria.
Again, when e reach the turn of your region, encourage youths to fry akara or sponsor mass weddings & pilgrimage.
@NemeremNjoku Omooooo. Seeing and hearing about all this and I simply wonder, is there saving Nigeria?. How can a people of such potential be so daft and easy to manipulate..🤔🤔
