Peter Obi graduated with a Third Class in Philosophy. Yet, owned buildings and a thriving business as a student and was Chairman of a bank in his 30s.
‘Smartness’ has nothing to do with grades. In fact, one may argue that the Nigerian drive to graduate with good grades rather than focus on solving problems has created a nation full of educated people bereft of critical thinking.
@GinikaOfAfrica There are even lots of graduates with Third class honours that when you listen to them speak, you'll find it difficult believing that result belongs to them
The Nigerian educational system is a disaster, there are Sadists and Abusers as lecturers, life traumas and other...
@CountValkwula@GinikaOfAfrica The fact that you boldly compare a primary school to a university where there are factors outside a student's control is so funny
My Bros, what’s your beef with 2nd class lower graduates? You know very well that many factors contribute to both higher and lower grades aside being smart and being dull? Your binary view on this topic is beginning to make me question your critical thinking processes 🤔 There are people with 3rd class degrees who traveled to Europe and ended up with first class degrees… You can motivate students to aim for excellence without shaming those with low grades. While education is great, it’s not necessarily the only means to achievement, success, or even happiness.
Nigerians, THERE IS FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN!
Starting next year, japa will become a prison break; you will need the combined efforts of Michael Scofield, Fernando Sucre, Dr. Sara Tancredi, & T-Bag Bagwell to escape Naija.
Tinubu is Officer Bellick, the wicked warden.
Nigeria is one hell of a giant prison, you are cooped up in a type of Fox River—a supermax. Escape is a forlorn hope; survival is your priority
With the green passport slumping 181 places, it will take a miracle for that visa to be approved. Pablo wants you to focus entirely on staying alive. There will be no escape from 2027.
Bear in mind that most of the people in power carry diplomatic passports, the red type. While you undergo rigorous visa exercises, your politicians will continue to have it easy.
Under your Nigerian passport regulations, spouses (wives/husbands) of high-ranking public officials (the President, Vice President, & select principal officers are eligible for official or diplomatic passports). And given the corrupt nature of the system you have, almost anyone might already be carrying a red passport.
So, why would they care? They don’t exactly pass through the regular security checks or endure your harrowing travel experiences.
The 4,000 influencer recruits will avoid this like the plague. 'Ronu' miscreants will avoid it as well. They will wait for Peter Obi to talk about it.
Bold reforms that only produce poverty, hunger, homelessness, joblessness, suicides, hopelessness, skyrocketing inflation, low purchasing power, & one of the worst passports in the world is a punishment.
You & I know that Bola has messed up Nigeria. He is the undisputed ‘Undertaker of Nigeria;’ the bottom line is now completely buried.
Not a single Human Development Index (HDI) has improved under the so-called reforms.
They crossed the Red Sea, but left you in Egypt to be slaughtered. The more they reform, the more they tighten the noose around your necks
