My parents spent £123,000 to study in the UK for 5 years. This is aside my pocket money
₦ 222M in today's money.
I was given 6 months to leave the country in 2016 after my studies because I couldn't secure a job.
I landed in Canada 2025 as a PR and started working the week I landed.
Sola@SolaTheAnalyst
People ask me why Canada 🇨🇦 and not the US 🇺🇸 when I was planning my japa. I applied from Lagos 🇳🇬. Never been here before I landed. Here’s what I saw: The PR 🇨🇦 process is transparent. You know your score, your rank, your shot. Once you have PR, citizenship takes 3 years. Not decades. Healthcare doesn’t come with a bill. Canada’s 2026 immigration target: 380,000 new permanent residents. They are actively building toward you. Today the US told people living there legally for years to go back home and reapply. E be like ‘technical deportation’ for my eye 🤲🏾 I applied from Lagos and never once felt like I was begging. Nigerians abroad, what made you choose the country you ended up in?

@lekanhaastrup @PeterObi you want peter obi to turn water into wine in a split second. LOL

If Peter Obi wins the 2027 election, his first 100 days would probably shake Nigeria in ways many people are not ready for.
Not miracles.
Not overnight change.
But visible disruption.
Here are 20 things most likely to happen early:
1. Government spending will reduce aggressively. Expect fewer convoys, fewer luxury expenses, fewer unnecessary foreign trips.
2. Ministries and agencies may face serious audits. A lot of hidden contracts and inflated budgets could suddenly become public conversations.
3. Subsidy discussions will return immediately. Nigerians may face short-term pain before any long-term structure appears.
4. The naira might react emotionally first before economically. Supporters will celebrate. Investors will watch cautiously.
5. Some politicians who survived on “connection money” may suddenly go quiet.
6. Young Nigerians will become unusually hopeful again. Social media energy alone could change national mood temporarily.
7. There’ll be strong resistance from powerful interests inside government institutions.
8. Expect tension between old political elites and a reform-driven presidency.
9. Federal appointments may become less “godfather based” and more competence focused — at least publicly.
10. ASUU, universities and education funding may receive faster attention than usual.
11. Nigerians abroad may start reconsidering returning home if policies look stable.
12. Corruption cases could increase dramatically in headlines during the first months.
13. Some governors may suddenly become “friends of transparency” overnight.
14. The civil service could experience pressure to digitize operations faster.
15. There may be attempts to cut waste in National Assembly spending, and that alone would create national drama.
16. The stock market may respond positively to stability signals, especially if foreign investors regain confidence.
17. Fuel prices may still remain painful initially, which could disappoint people expecting instant relief.
18. Media attacks against him would intensify heavily once reforms start touching powerful pockets.
19. Nigerians would become more politically divided online than ever before. Supporters and critics would clash daily.
20. The biggest change may not even be money.
It may simply be Nigerians feeling like leadership is finally trying to look responsible again.
A New Nigeria is Possible.

The first thing that will happen once Peter Obi enters Aso Rock next year is, the ministries will go on a strike against him for trying to sanitise and digitise the system, and closing every loophole.
The National Assembly will threaten him with impeachment proceedings, if he doesn’t revert back to the old system.
The Lagos-Ibadan media will instigate national protests, be on CNN with Amanpour to analyse how weak and wicked he is.
Seun Okinbaloye will be bending neck like Turkey to ask “tough” questions he couldn’t ask current APC government.
At the end of the day, the system will be sanitised and the criminals will be dealt with decisively.
He has done it before in Anambra state, he will do it again at the national level. Go and verify.
Peter Obi is coming!

@deltanmuslimah The most foolish and ignorant of you are usually the loudest

I don’t like to dabble in conversations about whether Muslim women can be feminists or not. It’s one conversation that is very unlikely to see me engage in. I’m not a Muslim feminist the same way I am not a Muslim lawyer or a Muslim capitalist. I’m a Muslim who is a feminist.
These rights that women have to be educated, to go to school, to vote, to work and be paid, to not be child brides were not gotten on the basis of religion. So saying that women don’t need feminism because religion gives rights is not very honest, because men can and have taken these rights from women. Religion existed side by side with the slave trade. I don’t think many of you understand. There are still places where women don’t even have these rights. I cannot afford to be on the internet, with the education I have today, speaking from a position that women before me fought for, and pretend that these things just happened by luck or that feminism played no role in securing them.
I understand that being a religious woman who is a feminist may mean that I will be a hypocrite because there are areas of my faith that I believe in and practise that can be against some practices of feminism, but I can live with that but to say that I have to denounce feminism as a religious woman? Not possible. Not today. Not tomorrow. Not ever.

I have two to share
It’s not really hack o and it’s for iPhone 6-14 pro max users
1. The moment you discover that your charging port is shaking,just look for a needle or pin,insert it to the charging port and remove all the dirts inside
Don’t worry,your charging port is safe
Man of Letters.@Letter_to_Jack
Following the unbelievable impact of that simple tweet on unlocking carrier-locked phones, which saved thousands in Nigeria and Ghana, I’m tempted to throw out a challenge: Everyone drop one life hack that could genuinely help others. What’s that one hack you know? Kindly share.

You are asking the right question. As someone who has tracked, ambushed, and fought these b@st@rds across multiple theatres, let me break it down for you.
First, you are correct: they rarely use buses or trailers. Bikes are their trademark fast, agile, and able to disappear into bush paths that vehicles cannot follow. So how do they move 50–100 people?
They do not move them all at once.
Here is their modus operandi:
After a mass abduction, they split the victims into small groups sometimes 5–10 persons per group. Each group is handed over to a different cell of cr*m!nals, often operating in different forest camps. Some victims are moved at night, others during the day using routes that have no military or police presence.
The kidnappers do not need a bus. They need time, darkness, and local collaborators who provide safe passage.
Second, why no immediate interception?
Because the security forces are often alerted hours after the abduction has occurred. In the case of the Oyo school abduction, the attack happened in the early hours. By the time local vigilantes and police mobilised, the criminals had already split the victims and disappeared into forest corridors that span multiple local government areas and SOMETIMES multiple states.
Third, the missing piece: local intelligence failure.
In many of these mass abductions, the kidnappers had prior intelligence on security patrol schedules, escape routes, and even which forest paths are not monitored. That means collaborators inside the community or people who saw the criminals preparing but said nothing.
You cannot intercept what you do not know is happening.
Foundational Nupe Lawyer@egi_nupe
Something about terrorists and bandits kidnapping a group of people doesn’t add up for me. I’ve never seen them loading people in a bus or trailer and they are mostly on bikes. So how do they get to kidnap a group of 50-100 people at once without anybody alerting the government or security agency intercepting them immediately? I have been trying to process this operation and it’s turning my head upside down

Picked up the Merecedes Benz GLS 450 2021 The drive yesterday was beautiful. My client made a good choice for a family SUV for . It has a luxury feel and several safety features for the best ride . The sensors can even sense Lagos potholes 🤭 The 12v battery was a bit weak. So we have to change the battery . The check engine light and airbag light will go off after . Oil service, general checks, interior detailing and off to my client ✨
