Seeing all the achievements on the TL.
You don’t have to study medicine. There is so much you can make out of other courses.

Because it was never about who prays more in the first place, its more of a genetics issue.
How come Arabs and rich Sheiks don’t have that forehead mark African Muslims have on their forehead , don’t they pray enough 🤔

NGO life isn't all adventure: Check-ins with security teams, evacuation plans, and nights where you sleep with one eye open. Yet we still go. The courage is real. What's the scariest moment you've had in the field? (Anonymously ok) #Humanitarianwork

I once went for an interview for a 100k scholarship application and guess what. There were 200 people in the room interviewing me...on top 100k, they were just throwing questions left right centre in a rude and uncouth manner...wtf!!!

I hate attending interviews where Nigerians/Africans form the interview panel. Very unprofessional and lousy set of people.

Best part of NGO work nobody talks about: Lifelong friendships across continents, witnessing human resilience daily, and stories you'll tell forever. The pay and stress suck sometimes, but the memories? Priceless. What's your favorite NGO moment? #DevelopmentWork

Female NGO workers: Amazing opportunities but you deal with extra safety protocols, cultural barriers, and 'are you married yet?' questions in the field. The resilience you build is unmatched. Male colleagues, what's one thing you notice we handle differently? #WomenInAid"

The kidnapping of Former Army spokes person Brig Gen Rabe at katsina today is a pointer to the once again decadence in the fabric of our society, where a lot of people have embraced crime and criminal activities as a means of sustenance.
No such kidnap occurs without insiders giving information to bandits about the profile of the individual.
We need to work on ourselves as a people, there’s nothing government can do if we keep bad eggs in our communities whom
Have become accomplices to criminals.

Landing your first NGO job in 2026: No experience? Start with local NGOs or UN Volunteers. Remote monitoring roles are exploding. Passion data skills willingness to relocate beats a fancy CV. Who got in without connections? Share your path #NGOCareer #GlobalHealth"

There’s a serious problem in this country when youths are pushing 30 with nothing to their name except a few kaftans, heavily starched caps, and an iPhone 14pm.

The only exams I wrote during my Masters at the University of Leeds was an open book exam, you can literally enter the exam will a whole library if you want to. We checked all relevant formulas in our lecture notes during the exams.

My biggest academic shock abroad was when they gave me a formula sheet during my exams. In Nigeria, you are meant to cram everything, but abroad, you don't.

Got my first NGO role through volunteering and cold emails to organizations. In most cases, no fancy degree needed at entry, just passion, basic skills, and willingness to go to the field. But retention? That's another story with short contracts. How did you break in? #NGOCareer

The doors are closing faster than expected. UK raising English requirements, extending settlement to 10 years, and prioritising UK med graduates. The US partially suspending visa for many countrues and green card application changes. Japa was the dream. What now? Drop your story

Yes, and what they call unemployment is mostly a lack of employability skills such that no serious employer will ever employ them.
There is an epidemic of olodo graduates in Nigeria.
