As a creative, I have a lot of ideas. Too many, actually. And most of them disappear, because I forget where I wrote them, or I don’t even know how to start.

I just converted this typewriter into a Claude terminal.

When you type in a question, Claude types back a response.

My dad wanted me to go to a federal uni but I was too young to be accepted in most of the top ones except for two. When he asked me to choose, I chose the one that a nice lady in my class was going to.

@UfotUbon @seyedele 😅😅 Funny how I learnt about this from a skit by Layi.

@leyeConnect In certain universities in the US, there is a similar tech introduced by Grubbub (Design can vary). First time I saw one, I wondered if this can be trusted to work in places like Unilag or Covenant.

In medical school, I remember seeing a housefly 🪰 in the operating theatre during my surgical posting.

Surgery was going on when I noticed it and pointed to the theatre staff that there’s a fly hovering.

They were like “don’t worry, it’s a sterile fly”. Everyone burst into laughter.

But I didn’t find it funny. I was angry at the fact that they allowed themselves to make excuses for poor working conditions.

And that has become the pattern of our overall society:
• No electricity → we buy generators.
• No water → we dig boreholes and wells.
• No national insurance → we pay out of pocket.
• Bad roads → we buy SUVs.
• No security → we create vigilantes and civil defence.
• Kidnapping → We crowdfund for ransoms.

We’ve enabled government incompetence for generations by constantly finding alternatives instead of demanding accountability.

That day in the theatre, it wasn’t just about the fly. It was a symbol of a bigger problem: when excuses become our coping mechanism, decline becomes our destiny.

We joke about our problems and we don’t even recognise how far down we have plunged into over the years. Or maybe we know but we have resigned ourselves to the illusion that nothing will change.

The question is: how much longer can we keep patching up what should have been built properly in the first place?

There has been a lot of opportunities for things to change. The most recent being the #EndSARS protest. But it ended in the maiming and killing of innocent civilians by military forces that can’t stand up against Boko Haram terrorists.

We find efforts being sabotaged by our fellow citizens who have sold their values for money. We simply haven’t reached the point of “enough is enough” and sadly may never get there because we always find a way to cope.

After all, we are “the happiest people in the world”… or whatever it is we tell ourselves to keep living in denial of our true reality.
