For all those who were saying "We should argue for proper infrastructure", infrastructure doesn't do anything if the behaviour isn't trained. If you don't usually look for a way to dispose of your garbage properly, the presence of bins will not automatically lead to that.

@Gordonswaby Everytime I go to the beach in Barbados or Cayman. Ppl take up their garbage when they leave. WE are the problem but it is always easier to blame Government. At Kingston Kitchen yesterday, ppl throw things on the floor with bin a few steps away. We have become nasty

BBC report and documentary, on the plight of poor Afghan fathers forced to sell their children to survive. Except you have to read some way into the article - which is around 2,500 words long - before it becomes clear they are specifically selling their daughters into child marriage and domestic slavery. “If I sell one daughter, I could feed the rest of my children for at least four years,” says one father. Another father, pictured in the article, sold his five-year-old little girl. The framing is extraordinary. Not only because the fact only female children are being sold is presented as unremarkable. But also because the fathers making the decision are presented as the victims - rather than the girls who will actually live with the consequences of it. The fathers’ desperation is real and tragic. But so is the reality that these girls are being treated as commodities.

Her child is Yoruba AND Igbo. You cannot erase one parent’s culture just like that, especially not the culture of the parent who carried the child. Tf

Lmao, why? This idea of collective guilt is insane. I’m never going to feel ashamed of who I am because some members of my group are animals There are evil people in every group. Collective guilt doesn’t solve anything You must never allow people use that on you

Wow who could have guessed that as a possible outcome? Good thing the Caribbean diversified their economies and placed emphasis on agriculture after Covid, solidifying self sufficiency for locals right?

The promises of religion is the reason Nigerians are so elastic. They think their suffering is virtue. So, instead of civic responsibility, everyone is either turning a blind eye or turning the other cheek cause their respective gods will favour just them

You vouched for a man you haven’t met before in the face of a murder case. I’m genuinely just trying to comprehend the sympathy/support men give to other men they do not really know especially in a case such as gender based violence.

unfortunately my politics are rooted in a deep love for humanity and the exhausting belief that a new world is possible

‘Nigerians are intelligent’ but the homeland with hundreds of millions of Nigerians is a dysfunctional hellscape.

“Nigerians have a war against trees, a war against nature. Something is wrong with our brains. When Nigerians buy land, they cut everything, they cement the whole floor.” - Beautiful Nubia

Tinubu’s Nigeria offered scholarships to St Lucia — a country with 90% literacy and fewer than 1,000 out-of-school children. Nigeria has over 10 million children out of school. This is a choice.

My circumstances aren’t a reflection of my worth in this world. There’s more to who I am beyond what’s happening to me. Good things have happened to me before and they’ll happen to me again. I remind myself of that and I repeat it as often as I can.

Having the ability to stand firm and choose better for yourself will get you exactly what you wanted for in life , don’t worry about the timeline you had in your mind and ditch that stat

Older Nigerians want Younger Nigerians to suffer. That is the tweet. Lecturers' pride in how many Students fail is for God, B is for Genuises Senior lawyers, Senior Doctors, Senior Pastors treat Surbodinates like trash. Let us not talk about How Politicians treat their aides. When Older Nigerians are caught in a lie, they whip up the most useless excuse ever. My problem is that the youths see it as normal; they tag it as submission to learn in the most toxic environment. If you refuse to bend, they tag you a rebel

"They bullied Aunty Joke" They're presently buying fuel at N1000 from N198 in 2023. 65 year Old Aunty Joke should have some introspection. By 2026 she'd be back supporting Older Nigerians always want younger people to suffer.

It is literally impossible to build a good country if the citizens individually are not good people and that’s why Nigeria can never make it. Greedy people, unkind people, terribly selfish people. Ahan, only one country😭

Our insecurity problem in the North cannot be solved without addressing poverty. If you kill 99% of Boko Haram, they’ll refill their ranks within weeks bc there is a mass of poor uneducated children with no future in sight. It’s easy to radicalise them against society as a whole.
