This is one reason why Nigeria's public policies are always flawed.

With no disrespect to Dr. Joe himself, but policies shouldn't be based on individual ideas or what a group of elites considered progressive or "the brightest way of doing things".

It should be based on collected data, survey, democratic inputs and feedback from the populace. People sitting in an air conditioner filled room can't just assume what is best for the mass population in the country.

It's a monopolisation of abstract and pedestrian knowledge that no single human being or a group of politically privileged human beings can know.

On NYSC reforms, what's the data that show that the current system isn't working? And if any, where's the data that indicate that the new system will solve the identified problem? What research was carried? Where's the democratic input from the people who are currently in the system (the corp members)? Where's the feedback mechanism that made this new approach justifiable?

Without any of this, we just propose ideas that sound and look good on paper only for it to become adversely inapplicable to those who the ideas directly affected.

The same way I asked Mr. Oyedele then what data was driving his tax reform bill, and the proposed increment in VAT and CGT in the bill, only to have the host and the co-host kick me out of the space.

Our intellectual and political elites must be humble enough to know that not all ideas in their head are made of gold.

Else, we continue to fix what necessarily isn't broken.

NYSC is not an educational institution. It's literally "...Service Corps."

If you want to work on Education, go and finetune the curriculum and infrastructure in dilapidated educational institutions.

It's actually worrying that you think this way.

NYSC was designed in the 1970s for “unity” - that’s why people are posted to other states

No longer feasible today at all

All of a sudden, you people want to make it Unemployment intervention because a government has failed to trigger industrial and private sector growth 🤣

We grew up believing that politics was a dirty game and somehow allowed the ‘hoodlums’ we knew in school occupy political seats and we the supposed ‘good’ ones are at their mercy.

We are the biggest fools. Evil thrives because good people say and do nothing

[O.A @snrmanOA]

There’s satan and then there’s APC supporters who live abroad.

Because how can you live in a developed country, enjoy all the benefits and standard of living and somehow still actively support a government that’s chosen to impoverish people back home.

The fact that to have quality education you need to come from a family who can afford private school is one of the main problems of the country.
Anybody from any background must have access to basic quality education.
Look at how eloquent and intelligent all our heads of states were. We need to return to that era.
Schools need a massive clean up.
Curriculum needs to change.
Cramming and pouring it back should not be what education is.
Teach AI from primary school.

So why are you MAD???

[Anubis @eduantao]

Eu percebi que ninguém, nem mesmo minha mãe ou amigos mais próximos, sabe como eu sou de verdade dentro da minha cabeça, e a única pessoa que realmente sabe quem eu sou sou eu

[LADIPOE @LadiPoe]

Nothing happens overnight o. Neglect education for decades and eventually the invoice arrives. The next gen usually ends up paying it

[jay @Jay_bigstepper]

Nigeria is a very bad place to be intelligent.

so this shyness thing doesn't go away with age huh

[OLUCHI🫦 ( you have no funder) @Phatbabeluuu]

You really make me wonder if they carried you in a womb or you were laid as an egg.

[gst @wearegst]

Every single part of your daily peace is governed by politics. If you're holding onto a cracked screen because phones now cost millions or you can't buy shawarma without doing mathematics, you are feeling the real-world weight of state failure.

Everything is politics.

This is what I mean when I say there's someone for everyone 😂😂

The aisle? The arches? The cross?!! SICKENING.

For context, the equivalent price of crude that justifies N1300/L is $110. You don’t hate these people enough

Having kids is a serious responsibility. I don’t think people fully understand that, judging by how casually some approach pregnancy, especially at a young age. Children are not accessories. Being a parent is real life work. It requires sacrifice, selflessness, emotional maturity, financial stability, patience, and a willingness to put someone else’s needs before your own. Raising a child is one of the biggest responsibilities a person can take on.
