Bro, as easy as it is to say it, I fear we have lost the opportunity.
I was raised to believe that education will always set you apart.
I graduated with a 2'1, was already working, and my parents did not let me rest because I did not have an MSc.
I had to go back to school while working full time.
Look around today bro, all that is marketed is that the more you debase yourself online, the more money you can make.
Until we decenter that money worship in our society, education will take a back seat.
Why would young people go to school when they can rage bait on X, open an all access account, and debase themselves on TikTok for earnings?
One of the reasons we are seeing the rise of the Olodo culture is that many intelligent people are too quiet. They hesitate to put their work out there or raise their voice. They think nobody will listen. They assume there are already enough intellectuals writing articles, making podcasts, or posting on Twitter and other platforms. Some even believe they’re too intelligent to engage in everyday social discussions.
But when thoughtful people stay silent, they create a vacuum. And as we all know, nature abhors a vacuum.
That Vaccum is quickly filled by people who are more confident than competent. People who are not afraid to speak, create content, or dominate the conversation, regardless of the quality of what they have to say.
If knowledgeable people refuse to participate in public discourse, they shouldn't be surprised when less informed voices shape public opinion, and when Olodos start being role models.
Obi making sure that his presidential ticket with NDC is secured while telling others from his camp to accept whatever the decision of the party is regarding their own tickets😆
“Where I'm from, they will tell you not to give it to an Anambra, Imo or Abia man, but to give it to someone from Enugu. The practice goes from state level down to local governments. They also warn against marrying from certain subgroups. Then Enugu introduced an indigenization policy: ‘If you're not from Enugu, go back to your Imo State.’” — Man exposes clannish behavior within parts of the South East.
How on earth can you be so dumb that you don't understand what cultural and settlement boundary respect means. Go and develop your own miserable land. Your miserable brothers are rotten in Ethiopia prison while you are here with your muddlehead vocal.
Aliyu Giwa, it is high time you guys start asking your officers to understand psychiatric test. It is only a mad and EVIL human will carry a Public Execution in board day light. Oloriburuku po ninu eyin Olopa walahi....
The Nigeria Police Force acknowledges that this action was wrong.
On 26 April 2026, in Effurun, Delta State, Mene Ogidi lost his life due to the unjustified use of force by a Police officer.
Officers responded to a report of a suspect apprehended at Benin Motor Park with a concealed Beretta pistol. While efforts were being made to take him into custody, Asp Nuhu Usman discharged his firearm. The circumstances surrounding the incident, as reflected in the circulating video and preliminary findings, indicate a clear violation of established regulations.
A man has lost his life, and a family is grieving. The Delta State Commissioner of Police has directed the Area Commander to bring ASP Usman and his team to Force Headquarters in Abuja. The Force Disciplinary Committee will review the case, followed by criminal prosecution. Accountability will be enforced without exception.
The Force leadership extends its deepest condolences to Mene Ogidi’s family and assures them that justice will be served fully without compromise.
To the people of Effurun and all Nigerians, your concerns are heard. The Force remains committed to ensuring that such actions are properly addressed and do not occur again.
You guys are just bunch of daft and muddlehead. It's definitely going to be the normal operation: condemn the act, inform the gullible people that the officer will face disciplinary actions, sympathize with the family and after few weeks, case closed. Eti ya were walahi...
