Ya Allah cleanse my heart, let it sparkle with love and joy.
Give me the ability to hold only what is healthy in its dept, and the ability to let go of things that hurt it.
@FBN_help@FirstBankngr Why does my app dashboard show a different debit amount from the actual generated receipt? Why is the app hiding my transaction breakdown? Also, why am I getting 2024 SMS alert backlog debits in 2026 on an active, funded account? Fix this. @fccpcnigeria
I hate people that nag. Had to really vex for someone whom I was close to because of this character and they were making it seem like I was the one that was taking it too serious because "nah play na".
Okay I agree, don't do that kind of play with me again abeg.
I had to make sure I was present ehn. I didn't really like the early morning cold but I show. Joined OBS and ran one or two morning shows. Did drama and Miss NYSC for my platoon, avoided parade successfully.
Loved the platoon competitions cos there's always someone to root for.
Once somebody tells me sec school wickedness doesn't translate to real life wickedness, I just know they are silly.
Which kind emotional and physical bullying wey I take for school but I didn't turn out to exhibit any of those on any junior. Na opportunity you never get abeg.
I went to unilag yesterday for the first time, and I can't lie I'm very jealous, no school is touching that level of exposure in Nigeria.
😭 A large chunk of them have active LinkedIn pages.
They are always doing something that prepares them for the real world. OOU never offered me such 💔💔
My therapist once told me: Imagine being bitten by a snake and, instead of treating the bite, you waste time chasing the snake to understand why it bit you and prove you didn't deserve it.
As a northerner, I’ll be blunt here.
There are not very many excellent jobs in Nigeria, especially, in the North. And the few ones that are in the public sector? They usually go to the "highly connected” people.
And if you are able to get a place in the few ones that are left, you’ll only be paid a "survival wage." It keeps you afloat, but it won’t build you a future. In fact, with bills and family, it can make you poorer.
If your goal is to move into the middle class, which is the most realistic goal for most of us from humble backgrounds, then your strategy cannot be:
1. Waiting only for public sector jobs.
2. Limiting yourself to just your city or state.
The harsh truth is that unemployment is higher in many northern cities than it is in the south. That means your chances of landing a good job here are slimmer.
As young people, we must be pragmatic in coming up with solutions. I think these 4 practical moves can help:
1. Look to the private sector - While you’re still hoping for government, go hard for private companies. They pay better. They train you faster. They expose you to bigger opportunities.
2. Be mobile - Don’t be fixated on staying in your state or town. Be open to Lagos, Abuja, PH, Kano, anywhere with opportunity. Build yourself there first. When you’ve made it, you can always come back home and give back.
3. Polish your skills - A degree alone won’t pay bills. What problem can you solve? Learn a skill. Tech, sales, logistics, content, trades. Make yourself valuable.
4. Start something small - Having a degree doesn’t mean you must have a 9-5. The goal is to have a source of livelihood. It can be a business, a side hustle, catering, farming, e-business. Start small. Grow it.
Just be out and work hard.
I hope we succeed.
