You asked for growth so life gave you discomfort. You asked for success so it demanded sacrifice. You cannot have one without the other. More ambition means less free time. Every choice has a cost. When the weight feels heavy remember you asked for this. That is not punishment. That is the price.

You should have things you don't do, places you don't go to, substances you don't take, words you don't say

By all means, have Principles and Standards.

I finally understand what Machiavelli meant when he said, “Never play fair in a game where others cheat.” It doesn’t mean become evil. It means stop being naive. Stop bringing honesty to people who study manipulation, stop giving access to people who weaponize closeness, and stop expecting clean hands from people who already showed you they’ll throw dirt. Sometimes wisdom is not revenge. Sometimes wisdom is learning the rules of the room before the room uses your goodness against you.

Visited a slum today in Lagos in preparation for a medical outreach we are planning this week.

It was an eye opener.
It just reiterated to me that we need to do more concerning youth awareness and substance use.

I saw young people like myself with bloodshot red eyes.
I smelt the deep ooze of cannabis.
I felt the air of nicotine smoke.

I saw as young boys and girls grabbed their roll of drugs.
I saw as heavily tattooed youths sat with a game of Ayo while a bottle containing mixtures was by their side.

I saw pregnant girls went about their daily activities, wallowing in the marshy puddle of water.

I saw a flow of people struggling with substance use.

Then I asked myself, That could have been me?
But perhaps, knowledge and opportunity was what made a difference.

It gave me a focal point to think.
So much to do
So many lives to touch.
Young people like myself must be invested in the business of changing lives.

We are planning a big massive outreach to Surulere this week.
We are giving free medical care, free medications, free groceries, free foodstuff, free consultation, free therapy sessions, free pads, free sanitary towels and more

It's been tasking putting this together.
Hundreds of hours and team efforts/ strategy.

We are storming Surulere with a team of Doctors, Nurses, Lab scientists, Psychiatrists, Pharmacists and other Healthcare workers.

WE ARE NOT THUGS @RectorPascal. Will be in Surulere this week, Saturday for the HEALTHY SHITTA OUTREACH

If you will like to support us.
Please send a message.
We will appreciate.
Thanks

Surulere, Lagos. See you on Saturday, 13th.

[Prince Dr. Dapo Abiodun, CON @DapoAbiodunCON]

Power remains the foundation of industrialization and socioeconomic development, which is why we launched the Ogun State Light Up Project to ensure energy self-sufficiency across every part of the state.

[Man of Letters. @Letter_to_Jack]

Yesterday, Governor Dapo Abiodun @DapoAbiodunCON constituted the Direct Impact & Social Investment Project Committee. If you are a resident of Ogun State, this is what this committee means for you:

This new Committee has a clear mandate: to deliver results directly in our communities, where our people live and work.

1- They will be rolling out solar and manual-powered boreholes in EVERY ward across the state to ensure access to clean water without stress or long distances.

2- Transformers have been procured, and they will be installed to strengthen electricity supply for homes, businesses, schools, and healthcare facilities.

3- Road grading will commence across four locations in each Local Government Area from October, improving access and mobility within our communities.

4- They will be providing direct cash support to the poor and vulnerable, including the elderly, widows, persons with disabilities, and families in need, ensuring that no one is left behind.

The Committee is chaired by the Secretary to the State Government, Mr. Tokunbo Talabi, and comprises Commissioners, Special Advisers, Local Government Chairpersons, Councillors, and community representatives.

Keep tabs and demand progress report with the members closest to you. This is a collective effort, and it belongs to all of us.

God bless Ogun State.

I have followed with rapt attention the discourse that followed my conversation at the Platform Nigeria on May Day. The stark reality is this - opportunities are few and far between, unemployment/underemployment is high and sadly there are too few employers for a huge market such as ours, at least when compared to other markets such as China, India that have similar youth bulge.

We Nigerians are some of the most hardworking and gritty people in the world.

But we must tell ourselves the truth. Nigeria currently doesn’t have enough highly skilled technical talent resident in Nigeria to build companies that can scale globally.

Interestingly, I have also read a lot of employers double down and agree with my current diagnosis around our country’s technical talent pipeline gap and confirmed it is true. Former Minister, Kemi Adeosun also referenced Africa’s richest man, Alhaji Aliko Dangote comments around finding the right quality and quantity of talents for his refinery project.

Let me ask a hard question - can we say that Nigeria has enough highly skilled technical talent still resident in Nigeria? That's a huge conundrum that any organization that wants to maintain market leadership must solve for.

How many engineering executives do we have remaining in Nigeria that lead a payments team that handles payments infrastructure processing tens millions of transactions daily without fail?

How many senior data scientists do we have in Nigeria that can create data models to appraise millions of customers while managing prudent NPLs?

How many senior growth executives in Nigeria have the experience of growing a digital apps towards acquiring 80k customers a day through digital and offline channels while maintaining prudent CACs?

It is important to note that this is not about Nigerians generally, this is about senior Nigerian talents still resident in Nigeria.

Nigeria is not producing enough high quality senior technical talent and the little we have are emigrating.

I can explain these to be that Nigeria does not have too many feeder industries across the board. As such, there are fewer starter companies that young talent can come from to feed into senior roles in other companies. Every one then ends up fighting for the same pool of senior leaders that have experience and bandwidth to deliver and win in the market.

The effect of the Japa wave has been very well chronicled and I must add that this has been a trans-generational challenge. Remember that time in the early 80s where a lot of our medical professionals left for places like Saudi and the UAE? As at March 2024, Nigeria had lost around 16,000 medical doctors to other countries, most especially the US and the UK.

The quality of technical education is also falling as our standard of education is lagging behind global counterparts.

Can we say we have enough senior technical talent in Nigeria to compete with global competition especially China? But Moniepoint, Dangote, Flutterwave, LemFi are competing with them.

Training young talents can fill the gap for the future but is inadequate for today. Companies need senior talent and cannot wait the eight to ten years needed to get them to senior levels to compete.

In training young talent, Moniepoint has seen a lot of bright spots through our various interventions that are aimed at deepening the talent pool. So we are indeed doing something about improving talent density for the ecosystem. Through our DreamDevs programme, which is in its second year, we're training talented young engineering graduates with the skills they need to enter the workforce as top talent. We have supported the government's 3MTT agenda as well as a partnership with Unilag’s NITHUB to push the HatchDev initiative. Our Women in Tech internship programme, which now in its sixth year, provides women with the access, training and opportunities they need to build careers in tech. I also personally have a scholarship program for STEM students across select Nigerian universities in every geo-political zone.

Competing globally also means that you spend top dollars to retain top Nigerian talents that you have nurtured. We routinely retain Nigerians that emigrate and pay them according to their local market standards.

A recent example is an exceptional first class graduate we nurtured through our women in Tech program and had to go to school just as a path to emigrate and we had to retain abroad and offer an alternative naturalization path for her.

Moniepoint has over 3,500 full time employees with over 90% Nigerian talents, and we’re growing 20% YoY. We’d love a world where this is at 99% while building for the world.

Self deception isn’t a virtue and we must tell ourselves the home truth - we need to raise the quantity and quality of our technical talents resident in Nigeria to compete. No organization can rise above the quality of its output and execution is everything in this game.

Nigeria will be great. Let’s all do the work together.

By the way, top tech talents still resident in Nigeria, we need you badly. We pay above market rates and you will make real impact. Please apply here: https://t.co/hrBbhCWj1k

For top Nigerian talents out of the country, we hire out of the UK, Portugal, Spain, India and Pakistan. Also apply, we are building digital banking infrastructure that provides financial happiness for emerging markets.
