Kira Ogogo is set to release her first movie production since the passing of her father, the late Taiwo Hassan Ogogo.
Let's rally around and turn out en masse to support her when the movie is released.

In Yoruba land
A dark skinned lady is called Adúmáradán
While a light skinned is called Apọ́nbẹ́porẹ́
We don't discriminate here 😎

Please, do you have the NYSC posting figures?
What I have with me is funny:
Abia State has 1,967 Corp members posted to the State...
Lagos....11,224 deployed😂😂😂
Ogun........4,152
Rivers.........4,485
Anambra, 2,205 NYSC
Bauchi has 1,677
Enugu....2,200
Kebbi....806
Nasarawa.....2,656
Yobe..........1,500
And AFTER putting 10 times pressure on Lagos facility, some will suddenly become "Lagos is smelling" champion 😂😂😂

Oga keep quiet.
In the history of stupid posts, that post was so stupid that even stupid people disagreed with you because they saw the stupidity of the post.
You say a lot of silly things, but the responses from that post must have revealed to you that is the silliest in the history of silly things.
No other person can break that record.
I have read many of the responses from people supporting this government policy, and I think most are missing the fundamental issue.
There is a huge difference between maintaining educational standards and forcing every school through the same examination system.
Let me give you a practical example.
Take Charterhouse Lagos, which operates the British curriculum, preparing students for IGCSE and A Levels.
Now take a typical Nigerian secondary school operating the Nigerian curriculum and preparing students for WAEC and NECO.
Both schools have different educational pathways, curriculum structures, assessment systems and academic objectives.
Why should the government insist that students from both schools must sit the same Nigerian national examinations?
If a student successfully completes Cambridge A Levels and secures admission to a top university abroad, what additional academic competence does compulsory WAEC or NECO participation establish?
And why should a school risk losing its operating licence simply because its students follow a credible alternative qualification pathway?
Nobody is arguing against national educational standards. We are arguing that educational standards and examination uniformity are NOT the same thing.
If the concern is quality assurance, independently assess learning outcomes, recognise equivalent qualifications and hold schools accountable for performance.
Instead of investing our energy in modernising outdated curriculum content, improving teacher quality, equipping laboratories and strengthening assessment integrity, we are creating additional examination obligations.
The goal of education is to produce knowledgeable, competent and globally competitive students, not to ensure everyone holds the same examination certificate.
A country that wants educational excellence must allow different pathways to achieve it.
You cannot improve education by confusing uniformity with quality. That is the fundamental flaw in this policy!

This moron is from Anambra, a whole local government just got their first public health facility in 2025, their most important town, onitsha is the trash capital of the country. His state is the erosion capital of the world. He is here foaming in the mouth like idiot.

Outlier of the Day (2026-11-10):
Akira Endo, The Farm Boy Who Found a Heart Medicine in Mold
Field: Biochemistry / Drug Discovery
As a boy on a farm in northern Japan, Akira Endo learned from his grandfather, a herbalist, how to boil poisonous mushrooms until the toxins were gone. His hero was Alexander Fleming, who pulled penicillin from mold. Endo wondered what else might be hiding in fungi.
He was born on 14 November 1933 in Higashiyuri, now Yurihonjō in Akita. He earned his BA in 1957 and a PhD in biochemistry in 1966 from Tohoku University. In 1957 he joined Sankyo, where his main job was an enzyme that cleared the cloudiness from apple juice and wine.
His turning point was a bet. When Sankyo gave him two years for a project of his own choosing, he guessed that some fungi make chemicals that block cholesterol production to defend themselves against microbes. Starting in 1971, he grew more than 6,000 cultures and tested each one. Almost none worked. Then one strain of Penicillium citrinum yielded compactin, the first statin.
The setbacks kept coming. Compactin seemed to fail in rats. Endo then tried it in a colleague's research hens, and their cholesterol dropped 34% in two weeks. When Sankyo hesitated to test it in people, he quietly asked Osaka physician Akira Yamamoto to treat 11 patients in 1978, and the results impressed Yamamoto. Sankyo halted trials in 1980 over a side effect seen in dogs. By then Merck already had his data and built lovastatin, approved by the FDA in 1987 as the first statin on the market.
Endo became a professor at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology. He never earned money from statins, which more than 200 million people now take. He received the Japan Prize (2006), the Lasker Award (2008), and the Gairdner Award (2017), and joined the National Inventors Hall of Fame (2012). He died on 5 June 2024, aged 90, without a Nobel.
Dos: Test your hunch at scale. Find another route when the first door closes.
Don'ts: Don't let one failed experiment kill a sound idea. Don't measure your work by who profits from it.
Competitive edge: Childhood curiosity combined with relentless patience.
Perspective: Nobel laureates Brown and Goldstein said the millions whose lives statins extend owe that to Endo. Being first matters more than being rewarded.

Lies!
The few Yoruba dominated place that didn’t enjoy free education was Kwara and Kogi. This happened cos they annexed them to North.
This unevenness wasn’t reserved for non Yorùbá alone. Parts of what are now Òndó, Èkìtì & Osun also complained of neglect & uneven development, even while their farmers were producing much of the cocoa that helped finance the Region.
The benefits were never distributed evenly.

You see, what he said can be seem as wild and insensitive, but this Gentleman DID NOT TELL A SINGLE LIE.
If I wasn’t Yoruba i too would be offended and triggered and id loathe him and say he is shouting, BUT SHOW ME THE LIE IN THIS VIDEO.

Why should a school in the first instance be operating British Curriculum in Nigeria?
Is there any school in the UK operating with Nigerian curriculum?
If I am the Minister of Education, I will ban the use of British Curriculum.
All schools in Nigeria should use Nigerian curriculum.
Nigerian children in the UK are recruiting teachers from Nigeria using same Nigerian curriculum to teach their kids.
Again, you don’t know what you are saying

X minister of education lacks basic comprehension 🤦🏻♂️. How’s this dragging Nigeria to “Stone Age”?
DKM retweeted
What have you learnt from the comments, chief? Your government is asking students in your own country to sit examinations designed for their educational system, rather than rely exclusively on those set by foreign exam bodies, and you consider that a return to the Stone Age? Do you understand what it means for a sovereign nation to retain control over its educational standards, determine how its students are assessed, and ensure that their qualifications reflect its own curriculum and national priorities? How does your brain process such educational sovereignty as a sign of backwardness?
DANGER! THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS ABOUT TO DRAG NIGERIAN EDUCATION BACK TO THE STONE AGE!
From 2027, the Federal Ministry of Education wants to force EVERY private and international secondary school in Nigeria to make students sit for WAEC, NECO or other approved Nigerian examinations, even when those students are already pursuing internationally recognised qualifications.
Schools that refuse risk losing their licences!
Instead of urgently modernising our outdated curriculum, fixing dilapidated public schools, building functional science laboratories, training teachers and introducing globally competitive learning standards, we are busy creating policies that threaten educational innovation.
Why are we more interested in forcing successful schools to conform than in raising the standards of failing schools?
The world is moving towards artificial intelligence, robotics, critical thinking, practical skills and competency-based education. Yet we are obsessed with forcing everyone into the same examination system.
We should be exporting educational excellence, not restricting it!
Nigeria cannot become globally competitive by punishing schools that dare to do things differently.
This policy must be urgently reconsidered before we sacrifice another generation’s educational opportunities on the altar of regulatory control.

Under Obafemi Awolowo, Baba Ajasin from my hometown drafted the free education policy, which we enjoyed in Ondo/Ekiti States. Those schools are still standing today.
The Action Group's free healthcare policy was also beneficial to everybody in the Western region.
