Edtech….. we need edtech solutions Nigeria. Not fintech…. Edtech

Permit me to take this a bit far. Many Nigerians are full of anyhowness. It is in how someone builds a house and stops halfway, no plaster, no paint, no finishing touch, yet proudly moves in. Little efforts matter, but we ignore them. It is in how your generator starter rope cuts, and instead of fixing it properly, you just wind the rope around by hand every day like it is normal. We get too comfortable with inconvenience. It is in how the government builds one side of the road and abandons the other to completely deteriorate. By the time they return to fix the neglected side, the first one is already damaged again. It is a never-ending cycle of poor maintenance. It is in how people throw dirt out of their car windows, then complain about blocked drainages when it floods. It is in how someone installs a door but never fixes the handle properly. Or paints a wall but skips the corners because “it is not that serious.” This anyhowness shows in our work, our mindset, and even our leadership. We rush to start things but rarely finish them well. We do not value details, yet we want excellence. If we want a better country, we must start by changing that spirit of “it is okay like that.” Progress begins when we decide that doing it well is just as important as getting it done.

i get it now 😭

STARTING... TO TOOT MY OWN HORN - A thread. I’m finally writing the first words of this journal in between cursing underneath my breath at a misogynistic dispatch-rider, listening to the never-ending rants of my friend about her many woes and supervising an artisan at work.
