God bless Burna Boy
@chibuezemiller@Onsogbu Lmao, what do these questions have to do with applied physics???
Or any field of that matter. Is it the life of Albert Einstein you're going to use to build a secure firewall?
If no one is saying this, I’m pissed right now @carterefe__ don’t play the victim card when it backfires, Wizkid has done nothing to you, I noticed you’re now comfortably insulting and disrespecting Wizkid at any chance you get, you even had to call his son Bolu that he should come and watch while you beat his Dad, the whole world is seeing this, you’re coming for Wizkid unprovoked but no one is cautioning you, but when there’s a retaliation they will set camera, call your village people to advice you now, but they are all blind now until there’s a reaction.. ✌🏿
@Mrnone123y@d_ocheido It's so real, the few we had already Japa to countries like the UK and US.
And this is the same thing affecting our healthcare system.
I listened to that Moniepoint CEO’s speech
I don’t think he was being malicious
He was pointing at our society and how the inadequacies of our government has put us at a disadvantage
I’m not sure why you guys are dragging him
@_ugomsinachi@iamthatguybrvh@_kiddo_18 Na there Dem go see you person downfall
When your own life no fit even catch up to that same person downfall
Bro work on your self you never guide
@iamthatguybrvh@_kiddo_18 😂😂😂. Them no know your fave gbedu again gaan. Let him and his fan base keep living in bubble. Soon he will be out of the top 3 discussions as the new cats catches up.
@The_Eniola1@d_ocheido I just made my research now honestly the man is absolutely right fr
We don't have talents in Nigeria the system of education spoilt everything
@Eniolorunda Why can’t you train them to international standards, employ them properly, and pay salaries based on international structures ($1k to $4k monthly)?
A company that does not even have its own physical building in Nigeria claims to compete with international organizations
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.
@lohrita@tomilola_ng The video I posted showed that truly Nigeria dont have world class exposure to implement world class work culture. Tosin only spelt out some causes, moniepoint trains and invest a lot on staffs, I’m not saying their perfect but it is what it is
@d_ocheido I've come to Notice that most Nigerians do not read or listen "For context" they just jump into conclusion and look for ways to fault the speaker.
Dangote:
Solved Refinery issues
Solved cement issues
Solved fuel import issues
Now entering into power sector
Promised 20,000MW
Our biggest blessing in Nigeria is Dangote
May you always have strength
May death be far away from you
Thank you for all you do for Nigeria.
YORUBAS DID THIS TO THEMSELVES: Liberalism Opened the Door, Betrayal Walked In
Let's tell the truth. The non-Yoruba lawmaker in Oshodi did not steal votes. Yorubas gave him their votes freely. Why? Because they were drunk on liberalism.
Now, check the list of the people they voted to represent them in Oshodi sponsored abroad. How many Yoruba do you see on that list?
This is someone who was voted in to represent Yorubas in Yoruba land. This is what he is using their money to do.
You were told that tribalism is evil. That every Nigerian belongs everywhere. That you must not ask where your leaders come from. And you believed it.
So you voted for someone who does not share your blood, your struggle, or your future. And now he has released that list. Take a good look. Your children are not on it. Your people are not there. His people are eating.
Meanwhile, go to any local government in Igbo land. Try to find a Yoruba chairman. Try to find a non-Igbo in any position of power. You will not find one. They did not vote for your son. They did not dilute their stock. They kept their land for themselves.
But Yorubas? You opened your doors, your wallets, and your ballots to outsiders. And now you are crying betrayal.
You did this to yourselves. Liberalism is a weapon they use against you. And you handed them the gun.
@Highdar6@onu_slim@elonmusk Company dey cheat you, you call out the company for cheating you, you say make him go directly to president if na like so things dey work how many people president feet attend to a day una no wise at all
Dear @elonmusk
Nigerians need your help.
Internet access here feels like a scam. We pay for data from MTN Nigeria, Airtel Nigeria, and Globacom, but speeds are unreliable and data disappears faster than it should.
Nigerians consumed 4 billion gigabytes of data in just 3 months. January to March 2026. N3.33 trillion spent on data alone.
Starlink is already a game changer, but pricing keeps it out of reach for millions who need it most.
Make Starlink more affordable in Nigeria.
You won’t just disrupt a market. You’ll unlock opportunities for millions of young people building, learning, and working online every day.
Africa is ready and Nigeria is waiting.
