Hey, I got to 50K followers. I'm confident that several of them are real people! Thanks so much to everyone who has engaged over the years. I've learned a lot here (and also been annoyed here, and also wasted time here).

why do global elites keep pretending that all women everywhere are struggling with the exact same obstacles?
and need one-size-fits-all solutions??

🗣️ Dear Nigerian women, Many of the policies shaping women’s lives are decided in rooms where women are barely present. That should worry us. Now we need to change that by getting involved and following conversations about public finance. Women are passionate about issues that affect them. Public finance should be one of them. #AskQuestions #GetInvolved #IWD2026

Chronic [and other forms of] undernutrition are critical for brain development.
But here’s what the data for Nigeria is also saying: many non-malnourished children under the age of 5 are not developmentally on track and fail to reach physical, cognitive and socio-emotional developmental milestones.
This signals that the pathway to holistic cognitive and early childhood development requires more: stimulation, caregiving, early learning, health, protection from stress.
If we are thinking about future economic losses or gains, a full early childhood lens looking at the #first2000days is needed.

Protein and calcium are disappearing from Nigerian diets. 39 million Nigerians are undernourished. 49 million face severe food insecurity. 1 in 3 children risk protein deficiency. This is malnutrition by design.

Human capital is built where life happens—where we learn, work and grow. When progress stalls, opportunity & growth stalls too.
The new @WorldBankGroup Human Capital Report shows where countries are falling behind & what it will take to move forward.

In Japan wasting pencils is disrespectful, so pencil extenders are used to follow the mottainai spirit and use every bit.

Recently, we launched the State of Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) Report—Nigeria’s first data-driven assessment of how all 36 states are enabling women to thrive across agriculture, entrepreneurship, labour markets, emerging industries, and education/skills acquisition.

@AbdulMahmud01 People can become one of the largest sources of national wealth, but only with the right investments in early childhood development, health, education, and skills. Human capital is built over a lifetime starting from the early years (age 0-5).
English
@AbdulMahmud01 Sir, infrastructure (produced capital) matters and is necessary because it lowers costs and enables economic activity. But the numbers point to the fact that growth tends to accrue where human capital is strong.

Doc: I watched the Min of Finance last night and shook my head. We are in trouble. How they come with growth figures dey shock me- my knowledge tells me that economies grow on the back of infrastructure and investment. Infrastructure produces good money and multiplies values

We are now rolling Capital projects from the 2024 and 2025 budgets into the 2026 budget. Warning about what looked like the expectation of “miracle alert” in the 2025 budget, I had said: “When governments budget with unrealistic revenue projections, it is akin to holding up a phone expecting a miracle alert after an angel would have deposited money into the treasury. While individuals could believe in miracle money if they wish, the state should not.” I am Ezemmuo. I know things. The full article is here: financialnigeria.com/how-unrealisti…
