While I bring a close to the "@moniepointng crusades," because this week is going to be really busy for me, just want to say I've contributed my mettle to the "talent gap" and related issues, in Nigeria, both as a trainer, an advocate, and a manager, and I know what I've seen in terms of quality of talent within the Nigerian talent ecosystem. In the first cohort of the Microsoft Leap program, I saw ladies who came in as noobs and studied unrelated topics like Biochemistry, arguing Network Subnetting by the 3rd week of training. Within 2 years, most of them were made Leads and Seniors in the companies they were placed at. Several of them relocated outside the country obviously because employers here didn't see or value their worth. Whether you have a huge following or not, but especially if you do, understand that being the pillar and ladder to those coming after you is the lowest hanging fruit to cement your name in the annals of posterity. I'm not expecting Tosin to apologize, but I'm hoping he reconsiders his statements, and I hope every other Technical Leader in this country have the mindset to elevate young minds and talents who are not the cause of their present predicaments, but use their existing platforms and resources to prune and elevate perhaps unpolished diamonds in the ecosystem. Ciao!

GLOBAL SODA INEQUALITY : NIGERIA SUGAR LEVELS TOP 🇬🇧 UK AND SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦

The pesticides in Nigerian beans are not safe for humans. They have been banned from sale in the EU for over a decade. Your organs don’t just fail in a day. They break down quietly. Then we crowdfund transplants or call it “sudden death.”

Say no more. Nigerian babies are fed sugar-packed Cerelac while European babies get the same brand with zero added sugar. The same culprit? Nestlé. Ultimately, NAFDAC is to be held responsible. Their mandate is to protect the health of Nigerians and they are failing at it.

Under the EU's Common Market Organisation rules, it is illegal to market FFMP as milk. They are classified as dairy "ingredient," not food. But in Nigeria, it's sold like the real thing, with no pushback from regulators. These things are not “milk”.

According to independent laboratory tests, Nigeria’s Fanta contains EU banned synthetic dyes (Carmoisine E122 or Allura Red E129). They were found in Fanta Strawberry, Fanta Orange variants, and other local soft drinks.

Behind the Activ-Go" branding is a stark reality: Nigerian Milo is a sugar bomb sold as nutrition. While the world cuts back on processed sugar, our local formula remains a concentrated health risk.

When they move abroad as immigrants - they make friends based on visa categories. They don't even date below their visa categories. 😂 When they're on Twitter, the reiterate that stratification. small accounts vs big accounts. 💀 I reflect a lot on our ideological design, as a people. Nigerians are morally bankrupt, culturally deficient and rooted in faux elitism. This is why some markets exist for us, because they can take advantage of that shameless insecurity - and I genuinely don't think the reason is poverty. I've visited other poor countries. These countries do not see cars beyond what they are, a means a transportation. They don't see restaurants beyond what they are. They don't see dates beyond what they are. Something fundamentally is wrong with us. For us, it isn't even enough that we succeed - it is important that other fail, or don't succeed as much as we do. It is important for us to have an edge other others. It is such a sick attitude. Person A has one house. Person B has two houses. It isn't enough that they both have roof over their heads - Person B innately subclasses Person A. You should also to hear from a Nigerian gym goer that you're not "man enough" because you don't bench as much as he does. 💀 As segwayed as these analogies are, they are rooted in the same proportionality. It points to the same mental illness. Who did this to us?

Do you know what it takes for bandits to capture a corps member, record him being flogged, post it online, and demand ₦5 million as ransom and not a single govt official has addressed it? For crying out loud, he’s a Corper oh. He’s serving the country. No words from Nysc DG.
