2 things that jumped at me.
1. There's been a sharp decline in the quality of our spoken English.
2. Just by looking at how full all the cheeks are, the fact that we are a lot poorer now is very evident.
On this Day April 30 1994, same day same time, only difference 30years ago.
Nigerians in long fuel queues lamenting, 30years later they are still lamenting.
And In another 30years will still lament, why? Because patterns don’t lie.

Hmmm. Not so sure except we hack everyone in the country. We blame leadership for a lot (and they suck) but have you met the people in the country itself?
If Nigeria hacks good leadership the effects will be transformational.

The two most important skills in the world in my opinion are:
1. Having an open mind to the point where you can unlearn and relearn anything.
2. The ability to create, nurture and maintain (great) relationships.
You can achieve anything with those two.

It's a valid choice to leave this country and go somewhere else to flourish.
It's also valid to choose to stay and build.
Just ensure that your choice aligns with your purpose. You won't find satisfaction anywhere if it doesn't.

Reading a lot helps you manage your biases. You have to get to the point where you can say:
-I agree with ABC...
- I don't agree with D & E but the logic of it is sound.
- I don't agree with F, neither do I understand the logic.
And be at peace with the author of ABCDEF.
