The scale of this fabric problem requires local innovation of a kind to rival the likes of @infinitedfiber's #Infinna and @futureofapparel's #NuCycl. Congratulations to @YvetteTetteh for her epic #swim with @theORispresent to raise awareness.

"Nigeria does not have the infrastructure to refine its own oil." at 2:40 is not strictly true @AJEnglish - the capacity is simply low. They can refine about 18% locally & that should more than double once @DangoteGroup's refinery is complete, but (we agree) that's not enough!

Foolishness costs money. Non-diverse teams cost money. Get the right people in the room or at least listen to external advice.
