Since we're on the conversation of recruitment. There's this guy you people were cooking over the weekend - who had opinions I agree with. He pegged 500K - 1M/month to hire a video editor from Nigeria & he was called all sorts of names with rhetorics like: "He should have hired from Canada". Here's what I think: 1. That people are working remotely from the global south, doesn't mean they should be paid peanuts. 1M per month IS NOT peanut. 2. There's an obvious reason he didn't hire from Canada. From a business perspective, it makes sense. It is the same business perspective that a lot of web3 based companies digitally based in Virgin Islands have offsites in Nairobi, hiring a lot of Nigerians/Indians. 3. There's a reason why Spotify/ Netflix/ YouTube charge people from Vietnam, India, Nigeria differently from people in Canada or France. In fact, people in Poland and Bulgaria are charged differently from people in Switzerland. There are people who had accounts in Nigeria before moving abroad, that have refused to even migrate their accounts because they're still paying in naira. (Proudly one). When billings and payments are structured, it is done from a geographical and economic perspective. 4. Regardless of your public tantrums, there are people who are currently begging for 1/5th of that offer, with exceptional skills. What makes this unfortunate is - it opens the portals for dubious employers to take advantage of desperate job seekers & it enforces a culture where people are actually paid less than they deserve. This is the main reason why we need to promote a culture where we can have reasonable debates when these conversations pop. You live in Nigeria. That 1M payment might be enough to clear out your entire annual rent (Lagos is not Nigeria). If he's to hire someone based in Canada, pay the person $3,500 - it might cater to just a month's rent. Realities differ. If you live in a 3rd world country earning 1st world currency, for your exceptional skills - when you're paid significantly higher than your peers who live in the same 3rd world country earning 3rd world currency, earn it and shush it. If you want to demand finely equal pay, as a Nigerian resident with a Canadian resident - find your way to move out of Nigeria and immerse yourself in the same reality.

Anyone that has built or hired at scale understands the point Tosin of Moniepoint is trying to make. Finding one person is different from when you need 50 in a short while. And no, you cannot pass arround the same developers. Let's leave tech. Can you find great plumbers, mechanics, electricians in Nigeria? At scale? If you you want to repair a Mercedes with a complex problem in Lagos (10 million people) you'd be given the same 5 names. 3 would be those doing side waka from Coscharis. For Lekki Bridge, they imported people cos they could not find the 10 or so deep sea welders in Nigeria. Some skills take years to build and require systems. We are not talking tying gele, doing drop shipping. A global company competing no dey find who go "run am". There is a place for interns etc. But those are not the person that will build the company. We lied to ourselves that population = asset is where our problem stated. Nigeria has many problems and Tosin is not one of them. Go elsewhere and look for who will massage ya egos.

All I can say ìs that Nigerians don't love the truth We would still be the ones crying that our educational sector is failing and our best workforces have all japa'd. But when someone tells us to our faces we tend to antagonise them cos of our sour ego.
Tosin Eniolorunda@Eniolorunda

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: moniepoint.com/careers 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.

"My oga settled me with 130K after serving him for 7 years. He told me after 7 years of serving him that things weren't really well for him and he didn't have enough money to settle me. After he settled me and I went to the village, I returned back to my oga's house and served him for another 2 more years, making it 9 years. After I stayed at his place for another 2 years, he took me to Kano and began introducing me to his supplies. He will told the suppliers that I'm his boy and anything I want they should give me on credit, and if I ran away with their money, he would pay. He took me to like 4 shops and introduced me like that. After that journey, those suppliers began supplying me goods, my shop became filled with goods. The first supplier gave me goods of N480K as of years ago, the second one gave me goods of about 200K and the other about 600K. Sometimes it's not the money you are settled with that makes you rich sometimes it's about how you started the journey. Some people said that my returning to my oga's house was a f00lish decision, but if I had stayed in the village that 130K would have finished. Thank God for the wisdom of my mother who asked me to return back to my oga's house...." A Nigerian businessman has recounted how a modest ₦130,000 settlement from his boss turned into a foundation for long-term success.

@olhoubaqin @BSAT_Properties That's the kind of settings I grew up with. It's not new. 2 families rented 3bed room and palor. We took one room and the palor, while the other family took the two rooms which where together. We share same kitchen and toilet.

Rent is no longer just increasing in Lagos. It is reshaping where you should live and how to plan your live and your family. Reality will push a lot of people out of Lagos by 2030 Look at what is happening. People in Victoria Island are quietly moving to Ajah. Those in Ajah are now stretching to places like Bogije and Eleko. It is like a chain reaction. One area becomes too expensive, people move, and that new place also starts getting expensive. If someone tells you they moved from Yaba to Bariga or even to Gbagada Phase 2 outskirts, don’t be quick to judge them. It is not a step backward. It is survival. The cost of housing is forcing people to make hard decisions. These days, nobody is forming again. You live where your income can carry. Anything outside that, you are setting yourself up for stress. Many people have left their comfort zones just to maintain peace of mind financially. Places like Ketu and Ojota are not what they used to be. A mini flat that was manageable some years back is now something you have to think twice about. That is why you see people pushing further to Ikorodu town, Agbowa, and even going beyond Lagos to places like Mowe. The same thing is happening on the mainland. People in Ogba are moving towards Iju and Alagbado. From there, others are crossing into Sango. Step by step, people are adjusting their lives based on what they can afford. And the truth is, this movement will not stop anytime soon. Lagos is expanding, population is increasing, and rent will keep rising. So the wise move now is to think long-term. If you can, secure land in developing areas. Places people are ignoring today may become hot locations tomorrow. What looks like “far” now will soon become the new normal. This is the new Lagos reality. What about your side. Is house very affordable? © Armayau

What people don't understand is that; the cause or agent of urban development isn't government infrastructure but INFLATION! People are forced to move to developng areas thereby makes those area high demand areas with time. Buy outskirts of developed regions when you still can
