I have stopped waiting for the Africa that they promised us. You know that Africa they keep describing in conferences and headlines. Africa rising.The one that is always almost there. The one that looks good on PowerPoint but doesn't feel real. I have stopped waiting for that Africa.I want to build it step by step, brick by brick and idea by idea. Good day everyone. I'm Kadusman and today I want to share with you my vision of Africa after 25 years.Let's be honest, Nigeria and Africa are full of mixed realit ...

There was a time when I'd wake up every day feeling empty. Not because I wasn't trying, not because I didn't care, but because I was carrying expectations that didn't belong to me. Nobody talks about the overly high parental and social expectations.Feeling like your worth depends on making your parents proud. The fear of failure, like every mistake was proof of disappointment. The passion is gone, like it was never there.And learning feels like a burden rather than something to be enjoyed. My name is Aisha ...

This conversation we're having in this room today is very important. It impacts on all of us. So, thank you for joining us.>> My pleasure. Thank you. >> I just like to start with something that is very key to everybody seated in this room.power. I believe that every Nigerian one of the wishes if you were to make a wish if you had a magic wand and you say what is it that you need most. Everybody wants 24 hours of supply and data says that 90 million people are without energy supply.How is total energy. One o ...

Did you know children of the Niger Delta are the most vulnerable to climate change in the region. Not because we want to, but we were forced to. Even before exploring what life felt like, hydrocarbons were already found in our systems.Person heat waves had affected many of us, subjecting us to scars and painful medications. Even my sister fell victim. It was a period of severe heat waves here in River State.It became a major topic of discussion on radio, TV stations, and lots more. And lots of children, not ...

The kind of work I do actually puts me in the confluence of data. >> Yeah. and data that cuts across several sectors from environment to agriculture to agroecology and of course remote sensing 20 years ago when we set out to champion and spearhead and out there say pilot the development of mobile maps in Nigeria.We didn't know that mobile maps will become a success. We didn't know that our lives will be so dependent on digital maps, especially when it comes to navigation around our cities. But because we be ...

transition grace economic powerhouse in other words I put in a context how Nigeria's energy transition fit in indeed a new paradigm called the green economy I would like to ask this audience one pertinent and all important question. How many of you belong to the network of climate deniers as like President Donald Trump or the United States. Are many of you.No. Put your hands together for yourselves. Put your hands together.That means climate change is not falacious. Climate change is real. It has become a m ...

When will life matter. When will life matter far more than profits. When will be the right time we begin to mainstream the health and life of humanity over making gains at the expense of human life.Over 70 years ago in community crude oil was first struck in commercial quantity. This liquid black gold the people of the Niger Delta were made to believe was going to transform their lives, their livelihoods and make the Niger Delta region just like one of the most advanced cities or regions of the world 70 yea ...
