Until they work for government civil service or wear suit and tie in a bank, they don't believe they have a job. The socialist system has messed us their thinking. My plumber says the same thing..."if I see proper job" and I always ask him, what is a proper job?
Since YCee has awakened Nigerians to the “Olodo uprising” debate, here’s a report on how the big tech giants weaponize their algorithms to dumb down the Nigerian/African population.
It’s my favorite report for the @Spearhead_Af from last year, but evergreen. Make sure you follow the @Spearhead_Af for more of this every single day.
Seun and Otunba Sowunmi clashed in this video, but in the end, Otunba Sowunmi came out on top.
Although he is a member of the opposition, he also did a good job of highlighting and marketing some of the achievements of the present government.
Ire oo.
Fred Rogers met with a child psychologist every week for 22 years to build his show. She shaped everything: every script, prop, and song. The whole point was to give a child's nervous system time to slow down. In 1984, a single regulatory decision ended all of it.
The psychologist was Dr. Margaret McFarland, who co-founded the Arsenal Family and Children's Center alongside Benjamin Spock and Erik Erikson. She and Rogers understood that the prefrontal cortex in children, the part of the brain that controls impulse, emotion, and attention, takes decades to fully develop. At the start of every episode, Rogers tied his sneakers and changed his sweater while children settled in. Those pauses were intentional, designed to help a child's nervous system shift into a calmer, more focused state.
What ended it had nothing to do with child development science. In 1984, Reagan's FCC chairman Mark Fowler abolished the advertising limits that had protected children's programming from commercial pressure. Toy companies moved within months. Between 1984 and 1985, cartoons tied to toy lines increased by 300%, from a handful of shows to more than 40 animated series. In almost every case, the toy was designed first. The cartoon was built to sell it.
Researchers later put numbers to what parents were already noticing. A 2011 study in Pediatrics from the University of Virginia tested 60 four-year-olds across three groups: one watching SpongeBob, which cuts scene every 11 seconds; one watching a slow PBS show, which cuts scene every 34 seconds; and one drawing. Nine minutes later, all three took tests on attention, impulse control, short-term memory, and problem-solving. The SpongeBob group scored significantly worse across every measure.
In the 1970s, children began watching television around age 4. Research from pediatrician Dimitri Christakis found that by 2009, the average age of first screen exposure had dropped to 4 months, as the content got faster and the audience got younger. Researchers separately found that each additional hour of daily screen time at ages 1 or 3 raised the risk of attention problems at age 7 by 9%.
When it comes to positive news, millions of Nigeria just swipe up but when they see negative news, all they do is ensure to spread and condemn the nation.
Nigeria will surely work 🇳🇬
“When I went to China, with 56 ethnic groups, they still proudly promotes Chinese tea and integrates traditional medicine with pharmaceuticals in hospitals. But in Nigeria this online Doctors will start making noise”
For a video that's 25s, the commentator did not even mention her name... not even once!
I remember people making excuses for the commentator, that he thought Danielle Williams was in the lead, but how about when the camera focused on Tobi Amusan after she had won the race?
These are the issues!
Tobi led this race, at least from the third barrier, but it was Williams and Keni Harrison, who both trailed her, that were talked about.
Almost as if Tobi wasn't there...
I was shocked when I found out that the Prophet ﷺ used to ask Allah for 47 requests in a single supplication!!
A supplication that might take just one minute of your time, containing 47 requests - imagine that!!
When they say hold your local government chairmen accountable, you will be crying.
Digging Substandard boreholes is for mediocre leaders like Peter Obi.
I will be disappointed if I see Tinubu commissioning substandard boreholes instead of stuff like this.
