Her mother was damaged. She loved her in the only way she knew how to. Sometimes, this can be traumatising for the child you are raising. As a parent, your primary responsibility is to do better by your kids - by protecting their welfare and wellbeing. To Uju's credit, despite her mother's difficult parenting, she was raising her own child, Nwakaego, better than she was raised.

You should read Aiwanose's second book "We Were Girls Once." It is the part 2. While "Tomorrow I Become a Woman" centred around Uju, Chinelo and Adaugo, "We Were Girls Once" focused on their first daughters - "Ego, Zina and Eriife." Aiwanose is a beautiful writer.

I love literature. It helps you to appreciate the world we live in and the world our primogenitors lived in. While their world came with a lot of difficult imbalances, I believe that we have a responsibility to make the next generation better than we have it. With exposure and education, comes a naturally responsibility to the universe to know and do better.

She is selling her body to feed. She did not take up gun to rob anybody. She was standing out there hoping to get someone to consensuallly sleep with her for N10k so she could feed.

Prostitution is a difficult job. It is not easy to put your back on the bed to sleep with people you don't like and are not attracted to, whose health history you know nothing about, for money. Many times, men who pay for sex are usually aggressive and violent because they feel like they own you, knowing fully well you need them for the money. These women have problems and responsibilities, and a family history we know nothing about.

Stop using Santorini trips and Lambo gifts to judge prostitution. A vast majority are just surviving. Sometimes, we are just too privilege to understand how the other half lives

Saw that Okwuluora Kidney failure video in Enugu and I just thought;

1) Beans - Sniper or dangote cement.
2) Palm oil - Red dye + water.
3) Fried Plantain chips - Either transformer oil to save cost or vegetable oil + nylon to make it shiny and hard.
4) Fufu - Klin i.e detergent to ferment cassava in hours instead of days.
5) Kpomo - formalin to preserve it further.
6) Fresh fish - Industrial dye.
7) Unripe pineapple and banana - ripening in hours with chemicals.
8) Mango - ripening overnight by pouring inside smelly gutter waters.

These are but a few, meanwhile, Nigerian yam, beans are banned across parts of Europe for containing excess pesticides used by farmers without proper measurements.

We virtually consume these on daily basis, and result today is unprovoked kidney and liver damage.

The worst thing about teaching is that your errors multiply rapidly and exponentially, almost impossible to completely reverse

It is better to teach what you know to be accurate even if it's small, than to teach inaccurate things

What I find strange is the quality of interviews in Nigeria today.

Why invite a medical doctor, a tech founder, a chef, or a business owner onto a podcast only to spend most of the conversation talking about their marriage?

Why are so many podcasters obsessed with people’s relationships instead of the expertise that made them worth interviewing in the first place?

If you invite a doctor, talk about medicine. If you invite a tech founder, discuss innovation. If you invite a chef, talk about food. Let people share the knowledge that earned them a seat on your platform.

I’ve rarely seen a society so fixated on marriage that it overshadows everything else a person has accomplished.

I'm thinking we should have an annual Best Teacher Award where the best teacher each year wins ₦100 million.

We can have other categories too.

Something like a Grammy to celebrate and inspire teachers.

What do you think?

[Enyinnaya @enyinna_]

I often don’t watch videos like this because, they usually don’t interest me. But today I watched until the end. While I don’t see any major issue with people passionately expressing their beliefs, I do find it interesting how people who strongly identify with feminism rarely acknowledge that there is also a male version of sacrifices and struggles.

Just as women have many complaints about what being a woman entails, men also have difficulties they are expected to endure. If a woman doesn’t want to recognize that, that’s their choice. But the important point is: as a woman, you shouldn’t expect genuine reconciliation or understanding from men when you dismiss their own experiences.

Also, I’m an advocate of men not obsessing over women’s choices. This video has hundreds of men arguing against these women, and honestly, I even feel slightly uncomfortable being grouped with that reaction. My question is: why are you so invested in convincing people who have already stated their preferences?

As a man today, you shouldn’t try to convince a woman that your idea of what is right, ideal, or principled is the correct one. Let them do what they want. Nobody is asking you to commit to them. Sometimes, the excessive need to argue with women about their preferences can reveal an insecurity: you don’t have enough options and need women in general to change to what you want, so more of them become available to you. It can also mean that you don’t have the ruthlessness to live on your own terms and are intimidated by the fact they’ll beat you to it—by their sexual leverage and sheer social savviness.

You should live on your own terms and only be available to those compatible with it. Many men avoid admitting this and instead opt for endless debates and think pieces.

Ultimately, if someone doesn’t want to submit, believe, or live according to your values, why spend so much energy trying to force agreement? Let them live, and you live according to your own standards. You should only go directly against them if they try to socialise the consequences of their own decisions.

[Danny Walter 🧸 @AjeboDanny]

The reason parents are strict and set many rules for children is because they pay for everything. Once you start earning your own money, you usually gain more freedom.

It also applies to relationships. If someone has to pay for everything, don’t expect to be free from control.

[Precious Bernard(Benin Chef👩🏽‍🍳) @ptreatshaven]

Cooking tips you should know:

-Season in layers rather than adding all your seasoning at once. It gives it a better and more balanced flavour.
-A pinch of sugar can balance overly acidic tomato stew.
-Taste your food as you cook instead of waiting until the end.
-Toast dry spices for a few seconds before adding them to release more aroma.
-Let soups and stews rest for 10–15 minutes after cooking before you eat them, because they often taste even better.
-Sharpen your knives regularly, because they are safer to use than dull ones.
-Add crayfish towards the end if you want its flavor to stand out.

Today, we concluded another partnership with Sterling Bank to launch the Sterling Bank National Mathematics Quiz. A nationwide competition designed to discover, reward, and celebrate Nigeria’s brightest young minds.

Starting Saturday, June 20, 2026, students from Primary 1 to SS3 across Nigeria will compete online every two weeks for the prizes.

1st Prize – ₦500,000

2nd Prize – ₦300,000

3rd Prize – ₦200,000

That’s ₦1,000,000 every two weeks and ₦24,000,000 every year dedicated solely to rewarding academic excellence among Nigerian children.

But this is not just about winning money.

It is about building a culture where intelligence is celebrated.

It is about giving every child, whether in Lagos, Enugu, Kano, Bayelsa, Maiduguri, Aba, or a remote village, an opportunity to compete on a national stage.

Competition Schedule

• Every two weeks

• Saturdays

• 6:00 PM – 6:20 PM

• Online nationwide

The top performers will then advance to a live championship session streamed online next day same time, where Nigerians can watch some of the country’s brightest students solve challenging mathematical problems in real time.

To ensure fairness and give more students the opportunity to benefit, every student can only win once.

And here’s what makes it even better:

Every participant will be able to review their questions after the competition, identify their weaknesses, learn from their mistakes, and prepare for the next challenge.

This means that even students who don’t win become better mathematicians.

Parents, teachers, school owners, and students should begin preparing immediately.

The questions will be tough and the competition will be fierce.

Registration is now open:

https://t.co/5dGxuzgLU1

Please share this with every child, parent, teacher, school owner, principal, and education stakeholder you know.

Let’s make academic excellence prestigious again.

Young King,

Always leave things better than you found them. It could be very simple things like:
-Pushing the chair back under the table when leaving.
-Returning shopping carts.
-Wiping spills you caused.
-Straightening cushions or blankets when visiting someone.
-Stacking used plates neatly in restaurants.
-Leaving hotel rooms reasonably tidy.
-Refilling the water pitcher when it is empty.
-Replacing the toilet paper roll when it runs out.
-Returning borrowed items in better condition than you received them.

[EgoKuwait 🇰🇼 @Egokuwait]

You'll go under a post where someone is mourning their mum and type “my mum will live long for me”, “I reject any negativity from this video”.

Under a marriage failure post: “I will marry once and marry right”.

Under a post where someone lost their siblings: “God please protect my siblings for me”.

Under a TTC mums post: “thank God I didn’t suffer before I got my children”.

Insensitive empty brains. God will punish all of you seh.

Some of you are nothing to write home about. Shame on you!

[No filter Skin @NoFilterSkin]

As a woman, before getting pregnant. Know the following as true:

1. Your height can reduce
2. You can lose or grow a tooth and develop sensitive gums.
3. Your nose gets bigger and in some cases never goes back to normal .
4. You can gain or lose weight massively.
5. Your hair grows thicker but can you lose your front hair .
6. Your brain adjusts to help bond with your baby (baby brain) hence the forgetfulness and it can remain that way.
7. Your voice can get deeper and hoarse
8. Your skin develops tags and melasma (dark patches)
9. Your feet can grow bigger and may never get back to normal
10. You can develop a strong sense of smell or lose it.
11. Your rib cage expands to accommodate the growing baby .
12. Your life is at risk and you’re never coming back the same way.

If you attend many of these big churches in Lagos, be very careful what you consume from the pulpit this period, because I genuinely think a memo has been sent to many of them.

The patterns are becoming too loud to ignore.

Most of the topics, sermons, statements, and even program themes I’ve been seeing from some of these big churches are psychologically constructed to make Nigerians emotionally withdraw from voting and accepting change as impossible.

Some weeks ago, it was Pastor Adeboye telling people that the next president has already been chosen by God.

Now it is Matthew Ashimolowo saying Peter Obi is the best candidate, but he won’t win.

Then another popular Lagos church is running with a program theme talking about “Jesus being the best political cover.”

And there are many more subtle messages like that flying around.

This is becoming too coordinated to be random.

The timing.

The location.

The pastors involved.

The exact emotional direction of the messaging.

This is psychological manipulation, and many Nigerians are not catching it.

Because APC knows something very important.

They know they no longer have anything tangible to sell Nigerians again.

Fuel is expensive.

Food is expensive.

Electricity is expensive.

School fees are expensive.

Businesses are collapsing.

The naira has been battered.

People are suffering visibly.

So what do you do when performance can no longer convince the people?

You start targeting their psychology.

You start targeting hope.

You start targeting morale.

You start making people feel like resistance is pointless.

That is the new strategy.

And religion is one of the easiest vehicles to use because many Nigerians trust pastors more than they trust facts.

Notice the pattern carefully.

These pastors will subtly admit that Peter Obi or the Obi/Kwankwaso movement represents competence or better leadership, but immediately after saying that, they will emotionally conclude with:
“But he cannot win.”

“God has already chosen.”

“Jesus is the answer.”

“Focus on heaven.”

Do you people not see the psychological game being played there?

It is not direct support for APC.

It is emotional demobilization.

It is convincing Nigerians not to bother participating.

It is making people subconsciously feel their votes do not matter.

Because once people lose hope psychologically, the battle is already halfway won politically.

And sadly, many of these pastors know exactly what they are doing because they understand how emotionally dependent many Nigerians are on religious authority.

They know many church members will never question anything coming from the altar.

That is why you must use your brain this period.

God is supreme.

Jesus is King.

Nobody is arguing that.

But God has also given human beings free will.

The same Bible is full of people making choices and living with the consequences of those choices.

Nigeria today is the result of choices.

Bad leadership is the result of choices.

Corruption is the result of choices.

Silence is the result of choices.

And better leadership will also come from choices.

God will not come down from heaven to thumbprint ballot papers.

Nigerians will.

So when someone tells you “the next president has already been chosen,” ask yourself:
Why then are politicians campaigning?

Why are billions being spent on elections?

Why are parties fighting desperately for power?

Why are propaganda machines working overtime?

Why are pastors suddenly sounding like political analysts?

Because they know votes matter.

And they know people matter.

That is why APC and its supporters are now focusing heavily on psychological warfare.

They know they cannot easily defend the suffering Nigerians are facing.

So the next best thing is to make Nigerians mentally surrender before 2027 even arrives.

That is why you must stay alert.

Pray, yes.

Trust God, yes.

But also think critically.

Because faith without wisdom is how manipulators control people.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

There’s a silent disaster happening in Nigeria that nobody wants to confront honestly.

We keep shouting about unemployment, bad leadership, low productivity, corruption, poor healthcare, failed institutions and why our country is not working. But many people are avoiding the root cause.

Our education system has been deeply compromised.

A student enters secondary school or university full of dreams, intelligence and potential. Then the system teaches them something dangerous:

“You do not need competence to succeed.”

WAEC malpractice. NECO malpractice. GCE runs. Sorting. Sex for grades. Extortion. Intimidation. Victimization. Handout rackets. “See me after class.” “Talk to your lecturer.” “Settle this course.”

And after 4 or 5 years of surviving that environment, we expect excellence to magically appear.

It won’t.

A country cannot repeatedly reward dishonesty in classrooms and expect integrity in government offices, hospitals, engineering sites, courtrooms and businesses.

This is where many of our unemployable graduates are coming from.

Not because Nigerians are not intelligent.
Not because our youths are lazy.
But because too many people were trained inside a system where merit was murdered.

The painful part is this:

UNN, UNILAG, FUTO, ABU, UI, IMSU, ABSU and many others are using largely the same NUC-regulated curriculum.

The difference is standards.

The universities that still command respect are usually the ones with stronger resistance against sorting, extortion and academic fraud.

The ones collapsing in reputation are often the ones where corruption became normalized.

Once a student realizes they can buy an “A” with ₦20,000, or sleep their way through a course, or manipulate results through connections, the motivation to truly learn starts dying slowly.

And when millions of such graduates enter the labor market, the entire country pays the price.

That weak engineer may eventually supervise a bridge.

That poorly trained nurse may handle a patient.

That compromised accountant may manage public funds.

That fake first-class graduate may become a lecturer and reproduce the same cycle again.

This is no longer just an education problem.

It is a national security problem.

Countries become great because they protect competence fiercely.

Singapore did it.
China did it.
Germany did it.
South Korea did it.

You cannot build a first-world country with a third-world attitude towards education integrity.

Nigeria does not have a shortage of talent.
Nigeria has a shortage of systems that protect excellence.

And until we become ruthless about fighting academic corruption, exam malpractice, sorting, sex-for-grades and institutional intimidation, we will continue producing certificates instead of competence.

This fight is bigger than schools.

It is about the future survival of Nigeria itself.

[Dr. Sylvie Watikum 🇨🇲🇯🇵 Migration Intelligence @sylviewatikum]

Never underestimate your ability to not keep someone else’s secret.

A lot of people believe:
“If someone tells me something private, I would never tell anybody.”

But human beings are more emotionally complicated than that.

Especially when the secret involves illness, suffering, grief, or the possibility of death.

Recently, I was thinking about this after seeing conversations surrounding that fact that Alexx kept his health condition extremely private until his death.

And honestly…

I understand it.

Because once people know you are sick, everything changes.

Friends who normally talk to you about football, business, gossip, work, life, suddenly begin talking to you only about your illness.

Every conversation becomes:
“How are you feeling?”
“Did you see the doctor?”
“Are you getting better?”
“Have you tried this treatment?”

And even though the concern comes from love, it can become emotionally exhausting for the person carrying the burden.

Sometimes people do not want to spend every waking moment discussing the thing already terrifying them internally.

Then there is another layer.

The helplessness.

When people love you and feel powerless, they often feel the need to do something.

And sometimes “doing something” means sharing your situation with others:
to seek advice,
to seek prayers,
to seek help,
to seek money,
to seek hope.

Not from malice.

From panic.
From love.
From desperation.

But the moment private pain enters the public space, it stops belonging only to the people involved.

The internet turns suffering into discussion.
Discussion turns into engagement.
Engagement turns into clicks.
Clicks turn into money.

And suddenly, the sick person becomes a public topic.

This is why I have deep respect for people who choose to carry certain battles privately.

Not because they are hiding.

But because they understand human nature.

Keeping a painful secret is not just about trusting people.

It is also about understanding how fear, love, helplessness, and public attention can push even good people into making decisions you never expected.
