@NdukaEbubeDike “Nigerians do not know how violent Nigeria’s history is” Yes. There has been at least 24 major violent crisis over the last 95 years (1929 to date) and there are 7 clear repeating pattens.

Everyone should see this, so that you're reminded why you should STAY ANGRY.
Edo State police arrested kidnappers & recovered bodies of victims.
Victims that were still slain after 11M naira ransom was paid.
STAY ANGRY.
Do you know what it means that a whole teacher was beheaded and absolutely nothing was done about it?
Children from 2-12yrs were kidnapped, over two weeks now and absolutely nothing is being done about it?
Do you know what it means to not feel safe in your own motherland?
Why isn't Nigeria rich?Bad government? Corruption?
Or is there a more uncomfortable explanation: the way we think about money itself?
In my new article, I explore why some societies turn money into capital,while others struggle .

Meanwhile, Nigerian cities desperately need to bring back urban planning. There is no good reason for everywhere to look like dustbin. We are not cursed.
Africa is sleepwalking into a dangerous future. Social media monetisation has turned an entire generation away from skill, mastery and innovation. Everyone wants to be an influencer. Nobody wants to learn a craft, build anything, invent anything or develop expertise. Even students in engineering, medicine and law are choosing ring lights over real careers because the system rewards virality more than value.
And we have seen this movie before. Look closely at Black America. Their most celebrated paths became entertainment, music, comedy and sports. A powerful culture, yes, but not a powerful economy. Visibility without ownership. Fame without structural influence. Africa is drifting toward that same trap at full speed.
Meanwhile, countries like China, India, South Korea and Germany are producing engineers, technicians, inventors and manufacturers at scale. They reward innovation. We reward content creators. They build industries. We build followings. The future does not belong to the continent that dances the most, but to the one that creates, designs, engineers and produces.
If Africa continues to chase fame instead of skill, we will become a continent of performers with no producers, loud but not powerful, visible but not valuable. Entertainment can enrich individuals, but it cannot build nations. Only innovation can. Only expertise can. Only craftsmanship can.
We are running out of time to choose what kind of future we want: a viral continent or a visionary one. Only one leads to real power.

Water, electricity and good roads didn't get to your area/town, but election materials will get there.
They didn't forget you, they just don't care about your existence. 😝
They were kidnapped since easter holidays almost a month ago, are they still in captivity or have been rescued? The media seems to have forgotten about them...

Churches everywhere. Yet you can’t go to the market without laser eyes because the mama selling eggs might take some out of the crate. You have to double check your restaurant bill in case the waiter has sneaked something in. But sure, such a Christian nation.

It’s becoming genuinely painful to watch society grow more ignorant, more cruel, more weird, more stupid, and increasingly stripped of empathy every single day.
The next natural work for every Nigeria is to start debunking the lie that Tinubu’s reforms gave Nigeria economic stability.
Nigerians have never been this poor!
I just completed my PVC registration at the INEC office in Lagos (onike). I came in around 2:50 ish, it was JUST ME in the whole hall! It took me less than 5mins to register. Don’t say enough is enough without your PVC. They even close by 3pm because of the low level of turnout.
Terrorists in Nigeria are now competing with Peller and Carter Efe on who drops more livestreams.
Meanwhile, the government is busy threatening content creators for telling the President the hard truth.
This government priorities are completely upside down.
End In security
