One of the reasons I share almost everything we're doing in the South East is simple:
I want you to copy it.
If a strategy gets more children learning, gets more students excited about STEM, raises academic standards, or inspires excellence, don't admire it from afar or criticize Alex. Replicate it in your region. Improve it. Scale it.
Africa has spent too much time protecting ideas instead of spreading what works.
I don't want the South East to be the exception. I want it to become the template for Africa civilization.
Imagine every region in Nigeria building its own Olympiads, ranking schools, training teachers, identifying talent, and making education a public movement.
Imagine every African country adapting the same ideas to fit their own realities.
That's how continents change.
Education is Africa's greatest opportunity. If something works, copy it.
Just a normal, regular news bulletin in a totally not-at-all-insane country, casually debating how best to commit crimes against humanity on morning television.
Journalist: “You've said that Russia should repay for reconstruction of Ukraine. Do you believe Israel should repay for reconstruction of Gaza?”
EU chief spokesperson: “I have no comment at this stage.”
*Days later, the journalist is fired*
Wike's daughter just graduated from a UK university.
Seyi was at the World Cup final with his family.
Please, Mummy Remi, how many days will I fry akara to achieve any of these? 😭😪
I just heard a story and my body is shaking…
A 13-year old boy in Maiduguri was selling sugarcane in a wheelbarrow for his father.
Inside the scorching sun, he decided to push his wheelbarrow to a nearby tree for shade & for him to rest for a while.
As he pushed his wheelbarrow tired, he mistakenly brushed the front of a parked car & the headlamp fell off. He looked around & couldn’t find the owner. His conscience didn’t let him walk away from the car. So he waited for the owner who happened to be praying in a nearby mosque.
The owner finished his prayers & found this 13-year old boy and the damage he has done. He called the police and ordered the boy be put in prison.
Recently, this 13-year old boy just got released from prison, after spending 47 years in prison, at the age of 60 years.
At this point, I broke down in tears.
He was literally moved from one prison to the other all over Nigeria in the course of this 47 years in prison.
He only got released because a governor granted him pardon.
May Nigeria never happen to you.
Three front runner aspirants for the office of President of the federal republic…
One aspirants team is lobbying the US to review a longstanding case of money laundering and drug related offences forfeiture…
The others team is responding by reminding the former of longstanding allegations/ case of bribery…in the US.
Both have hired lobbyists.
Third Candidate stands clear of any scandals…money laundering, corrupt enrichment, bribery or otherwise. Has persisted in saying that any credible allegations of malfeasance while in office will result in him stepping down from the race. Has made the same challenge for years now and still…crickets.
And you say you don’t know who the best candidate is ???
My brethren in the lord…your character is suspect!
The atrocities being committed by Nigerian security forces in the South East will be spoken about one day.
Extrajudicial kïllings
Disappearances
Placing the whole region under military siege while rehabilitating terrorists in the North
Arresting men and tagging them IPOB.
While a U.S. senator is publicly calling out Tinubu, the APC government is busy promoting fake Trump appreciation letter whose authenticity has been questioned. Nigerians, can you see the contrast?
