I’ve finally moved to the United States 🇺🇸 Glad to announce I’ve been transferred from the Netherlands to our Connecticut office in the United States. Looking forward to what the future holds for me in the US 🇺🇸

Absolutely, sir!

People can be so ungrateful sha! Imagine someone reviewing your application documents, writing recommendation letters, and even paying your application fees, yet you couldn’t even inform them when you became successful? They had to find out about your success on LinkedIn? Seriously? Scholars, you can do better than this! A little gratitude goes a long way!

What???!! This is very bad 😭😭😭

Threat for sure!!

Otilor seh!! 🤣🤣🤣

Anyone using student loans in a country like the USA 🇺🇸 to justify the rising cost of university education in Nigeria 🇳🇬 is making an unfair comparison! Yes, university education is not generally free in America, unless you secure a scholarship or qualify for financial aid. However, there is something important we often overlook: the opportunities to work, earn a living, and gradually repay those loans after graduation. Let me share an interesting example. A colleague of mine, in a bid to avoid accumulating huge student loan debt, decided to enroll in a community college for an associate degree instead of going straight to a four-year university. While studying, he worked in retail stores and used his earnings to pay his tuition fees. After completing his associate degree, he secured a job as a technician at my company, a major semiconductor equipment manufacturer. With a stable income, he was then in a much better financial position to pursue a bachelor’s degree while minimizing his student loan debt. And here’s another interesting part! Even if he had decided not to pursue a bachelor’s degree, his associate degree could still provide him with opportunities to earn a decent living. America has different career pathways for people with different levels of education and technical skills. You don’t necessarily need a bachelor’s or master’s degree to earn a respectable income. Of course, the American system isn’t perfect. Student loan debt remains a serious challenge for millions of people. But my point is simple: You cannot compare tuition fees and student loans in America with those in Nigeria without also comparing employment opportunities, earning potential, access to financing, and the ability of graduates to repay those loans. If you’re advocating for higher university tuition in Nigeria, you should equally be concerned about the economic opportunities available to students and graduates. How many Nigerian students can realistically work part-time and pay their tuition? How many graduates can secure decent-paying jobs shortly after graduation? Can we honestly say the same opportunities exist in Nigeria on a comparable scale? And here’s what makes this argument even more frustrating! We see how our public resources are being wasted in broad daylight, yet some of you would rather turn a blind eye to that and gaslight the poor into believing that we simply don’t have enough money to fund education. Instead of demanding greater accountability and responsible management of public funds, you’d rather justify shifting more of the financial burden onto struggling families. Everyone knows exactly what they’re doing!

STOP RELYING ON HUMANS TOO MUCH! 😭😭 The day I realized that someone you consider a mentor could actually be jealous of you was when someone I looked up to during my graduate studies in Germany 🇩🇪 completed his PhD, joined the same company I was working for, and never bothered to tell me! 😂 This was someone I constantly ran to for updates about my Master’s program, academic guidance, and advice on one thing or another. When I eventually secured my job, I excitedly shared the news with him, and he seemed genuinely happy for me! But imagine my surprise when, about a year after I had left, he moved to the same city, joined the same company in the Netherlands 🇳🇱, and couldn’t even send me a simple message to say, “Hey, I’m here!” I had absolutely no idea until the day we unexpectedly crossed paths during lunch! 😂😂 Till today, that’s something I still cannot explain! Perhaps there’s more to human relationships than we sometimes realize. 😂

It’s really unfair, but we move!

I’m beginning to think that, at the end of the day, life is more about WHO YOU KNOW than WHAT YOU KNOW! You can be exceptionally good at what you do, but sometimes, the people you know, those who believe in you, and those willing to open doors for you determine how far you can go in life. Competence is important, but connections can take you places competence alone may never reach! God help us! 🙏

They’re cooking something! 😆😆😆

Your time is coming! Soon!

Did you know that some of the world’s most prestigious universities were founded by Christian churches and clergymen, and that some STILL read the Bible or sing biblical Psalms during their graduation events? 😳 Let me show you something fascinating! 🇺🇸 Harvard University (1636) — Founded by Puritans, partly to educate Christian ministers. 🇺🇸 Yale University (1701) — Founded by Congregationalist ministers to train future religious and civic leaders. 🇺🇸 Columbia University (1754) — Originally King’s College, with Anglican roots. Its first president was an Anglican priest! 🇬🇧 King’s College London (1829) — Established in the tradition of the Church of England. 🇨🇦 Trinity College, University of Toronto (1851) — Founded by an Anglican bishop. 🇺🇸 University of the South (1857) — Founded by Episcopal bishops and still maintains its Anglican identity. Now, here’s the part that really fascinates me! 👉At Harvard, Psalm 78 is traditionally sung during its Baccalaureate service. 👉At Yale’s 2026 Baccalaureate ceremony, biblical passages from the Psalms and the Gospel of Matthew were read! These are institutions that have produced some of the world’s greatest scientists, Nobel laureates, presidents, engineers, and intellectuals. And yet, centuries later, elements of their Christian heritage remain visible in their academic traditions! Of course, many of these universities are now secular or nonsectarian, welcoming students of all religious backgrounds. But one thing is undeniable: Christianity, particularly through the Anglican, Puritan, and other Protestant traditions, played an enormous role in the development of higher education. The Church didn’t just build cathedrals. It also helped build institutions that shaped modern science, medicine, engineering, and civilization! How many people today actually know the Christian history behind these universities? ❤️✝️ I got these insights today while listening to Bishop Dapo Asaju preach.

Our time is coming, @Arsenal fans!

Oh wow!!
