As @DavidHundeyin cautions us, we Africans need to be wary of the media blitz of what is happening in South Africa. An agenda cannot start in the far end of the continent and spread throughout in real time, except with some very deliberate and huge investment of resources. We Africans need to realize that what we think is extremely important, yet the same media spreading this poison keeps telling us that thinking by Africans (which they sneer at as "theory") is so irrelevant to daily life. #MaishaKazini
Some people out there genuinely still think that one Bola Tinuboobooroo somewhere is the one making these decisions.
I am tired of explaining what should be obvious to anyone but the world's most hard-headed people...
The attack on education continues. The more people who can't afford the fees, the more people who can't further their education; and consequently, the more people who are less likely to think critically
You've already helped her to get to this point where she is 1 surgery away from returning to a normal life. The crowdfunding appeal got her the penultimate surgery.
I'll crave your indulgence one final time to ask you to find what you can, and help her over the finish line.
African journalists and media houses are riddled with traitors and RETARDS whose sole goal is to serve their foreign paymasters and twist the political consciousness of our people.
This 15-year-old boy, Bassey Stephen Etim, won today's Sterling Bank Online National Mathematics Quiz.
He is currently an SS2 student at Dority International Secondary School, Aba, Abia State.
He outperformed every other student who participated from across the country.
Another star has been discovered.
That's majorly the effects of Colonial education.
What we have in Nigeria is not education, it is a system of Eurocentricizing Nigerians
If we were serious about education, with all the professors in Nigeria. We would have had indigenous names for all/most of the things you're pronouncing now.
Students end up memorizing "botanical names, latin names, french n German including English not knowing the simple names our fore-fathers identify these things with.
Calling it "Tinea versicolor" or "Dematitis" doesn't make you any Smarter either. You just know the European pronunciation.
And the person calling it Eczema isn't any less smart, (I'm sure they know the local name for it)
They just can't continue memorizing complex European names🤷♂️
It is a form of protest for y'all to stop forcing brainwashing on Nigerians in the form of "Education"
When you speak English grammar finish, Na still eczema. Until you professors start teaching in the language we can all remember.
KENYA IS STILL PAYING THE PENSIONS OF BRITISH COLONIALISTS
According to Tom Ogada, an economic justice expert, speaking on Spice FM alongside Diana Gichengo of the Institute for Social Accountability (TISA), Kenya allocates approximately KSh39 million annually to pensions for former British colonial civil servants. While we have not independently verified the specific figure through official budget documents, Kenya does continue to pay pensions to some former colonial-era civil servants under its public pension system.
The revelation has sparked criticism on social media, with many Kenyan users expressing outrage that, more than 63 years after so-called independence, public funds are still being used to pay pensions to individuals who served the colonial administration. Some commenters described the continued payments as an absurd legacy of colonial rule.
The conversation highlights the absurdity of the current fiscal situation, with Gichengo pointing out that these payments are hidden in plain sight within the official budget books.
"We are very good," she remarked ironically, noting that while the government pressures citizens to pay more taxes, it continues to prioritise the financial comfort of former colonisers over the needs of the Kenyan people.
This segment serves as a powerful reminder of how imperial structures remain embedded in post-colonial governance, forcing nations like Kenya to continue subsidising their own historical oppressors under the guise of bureaucratic obligation.
It is also a striking example of why decolonisation is an economic necessity.
See how the head of the biggest, most powerful and most important country in the world welcomes the leader of a tiny African nation (genocided by the Germans over a century ago).
Humanity is beautiful. Western colonialism is malignant cancer. And this is just fantastic
Fun fact: Kleptomania became a diagnosed psychological disorder because white women were being caught stealing from stores and stealing other people's valuables. They made it a mental illness in order for white women to legally avoid prison time.
I’m really worried that Nigeria is behind in science.
It became obvious at the International STEM Olympiad Grand Finale where I saw children from other countries doing great things in science.
How do you think we can solve this?
