The character building of schooling in Nigeria is unmatched. (smiles in shege)In this episode, Samuel lets Tomiwa and Ire—4th year architecture and engineering students—air their frustrations about navigating the Nigerian education system. From outdated curriculums to an environment that often stifles creativity, it can feel like the system is designed to test endurance more than intellect.Tomiwa shares how the struggle to make extra money has led many students to risky money-making schemes (cough cough sporty). Meanwhile, Ire’s number one battle—outside his books—is simply figuring out how to eat. In an era where everyday feels like a rainy day, you quickly learn there’s no shame in drinking garri.
