I think Namibia is doing well. I’ll vote for a President that inspires hope like Monica Geingos (Namibia’s First Lady).

I have listened to about 5 interviews or keynote address by her. I am not sure her husband can even inspire me the way she does.

See another great interview with @CNN here - cnn.com/videos/world/2…
If people like her, NOI and Arunma Oteh starts a Feminist #COVEN, I’ll subscribe to be a member. 🙌🏽

On education, the FGN needs to grant full autonomy to the schools, issue clear KPIs (admission, teaching, research, infrastructure quality, graduates’ placement rates), and then regulate.

Let me attempt to answer @ItsChristy__ ‘s question 😁

#Thread #EducationReform #education
First, let’s be clear - I won’t disagree with @ItsChristy__ on government’s inefficiency and pervasive corruption.

My position is that we can’t continue to do the same thing over and over, and expect a different result. That’s insanity!

#EducationReforms #WO
We need a drastic reform in our educational sector.

The Universities governing councils should run the schools. Let them be autonomous and self funding.

Janet (name disguised), one of my mentees, was sacked last week with practically zero notice period. I was angry.

I read her employment letter when she got the job and I thought I knew the content.

I didn't realize she went back to renegotiate one of the clauses.

#Thread #WO
Apparently, she went back to negotiate the termination clause.

The company had a policy that termination or resignation required 4-weeks notice with no payment-in-lieu.

She didn't like it. It limits her flexibility to switch to a new job if such an opportunity comes.
They agreed to give her a waiver because they desperately needed her.

The company now agreed to amend the clause to say that both parties could terminate the employment contract with one week notice or payment in lieu. The updated employment letter was signed.

I remember one “smart” guy who got a $4K per month job in CA and was so excited that they processed work visa for him.

I told him the salary would make him worse than the N500K he was earning in Lagos. He thought I was stupid.

It didn’t take long before he realized.

#Thread
How will $4k ($4,000 x N420 = N1,680,000) not be better than 500k in Lagos?
He suddenly realized that accommodation around San Francisco was about $3k per month and he didn’t have anyone to stay with.

Cheapest mattress he got was about $250.

Gas & Electric - $200/month

Water - $150/month

1 drumstick of chicken 🍗 - $1.

Thanks Prof @yomitheprof for this article. While your conclusions are not aligned with my views on this topic, I believe that most of the arguments are logical and fair.

I believe that some of the issues raised should drive the discussion for the first amendment to #CAMA2020 😁
My view points are already shared in this article here - businessday.ng/opinion/articl…
Yomi’s article is actually the best non pro-CAMA article that I have seen - it came with strong logic that is devoid of unnecessary emotions and sentiments.

Let me just share my thoughts on some of the issues raised.

Agriculture (note that I didn’t say farming) is a good business.

There are so many parts of the agrifood value chain.

Yes, people are making millions. But, many are making losses.

It depends on where and how you are playing out your strategy.
I don’t believe that Nigeria is underproducing - especially for most of our food products (crops and livestock’s).

For me, the challenge is from the harvesting stage and from the farmgate.
I won’t invest a $1 in any Nigerian business in the pre-harvest stage of the value chain (as of today). That’s me - as of today.

For those that have sent their investments decks to me for businesses in that part of the value chain, the answer has been an emphatic NO.
