  1. Beautiful program,very inspiring to many young Nigerians out there that what they see as problems around them could be a bit of an opportunity to thrive. The government can't always solve problems of a nation building but the people,the only appeal should be for the government to provide the enabling environment especially by fixing the key infrastructures which could later be a win -win for all. People's problems are solved and the government focuses on taxing the dully eligible for more growth. Holistically speaking I am of the opinion that the subsidy removed from the refined oil products should be redirected to fund education and health. These two key sectors cannot just be ignored if the Nigerian government is serious about their structural building especially in education, there are lots of intelligent people in that country it's high time they transfer that knowledge to the upbringing of the youths to get them busy.

  2. Just visited Nigeria. Ur absolutely right. Lot of vibe goin on. Lovely people, but they all struggle due to political turmoil and mismanagement. They have another goldmine thats not exploited: tourism. Gorilla's in the Afi mountains under threat by illegal farming and deforestation. Hardly cld get in the country, visa hard to get. Once there, you'll get all the attention ;).

  3. What a refreshing story about Nigeria. It’s inspiring especially for a nigerian in diaspora. Nigerians are bright and loving people, it’s just the systemic problem.

  4. Indian here from India. One Indian tech founder simply uttered a single word Hello to the US venture capitalist, rest he completed the conversation and at last invested in the business..😂

  5. So proud of my country men and women that are working so hard to bring development and progress to our dear country Nigeria the giant of africa,. And thank you so much for this video it really reflect the country and her potentials.
