“Owner of Moniepoint’s statement is biased. There’s a major problem with employers in the Nigerian system, they don’t want to pay well, yet they expect highly skilled workers. I have over 15 years of work experience, and I can confidently say Nigerian employers are not impressive. The first time I got a job, I only had my secondary school certificate, yet I worked alongside BSc holders — and I was the first person hired out of nine applicants. Why? Because the boss had an international mindset. I came in with little experience, but he made it clear he wasn’t focused on CVs alone — he wanted someone who could deliver. So, when you come out to say Nigerian employees lack skills, the question is: who is doing the hiring? Are you recruiting the right people? You can’t hire content creators or influencers, place them in a corporate role, and expect the same level of delivery as trained professionals. — Lady to Tosin Eniolorunda, CEO of Moniepoint, over his recent statement

“As a man, never focus on one woman. One of the biggest mistakes men make is putting all their attention and emotional investment into one woman after meeting her. On the surface, it sounds romantic, but in reality, that’s where things start going wrong. Women are naturally drawn to men who have other options, not men who abandon their entire world.” — Lady shares her opinion.
