Okay, so a massive debate erupted on Nigeria's ex regarding a Christian sect tracking back to OAU's Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile Ife Seker 2016, whose members use an identical solid orange background for their profile pictures on social media.
Osagie AlongeHOST
170:30
Critics on social media have labeled the group the remnant of Orange Army, as a religious cult, pointing out that members display total allegiance by changing their display names to Omar Hussein MG, who's the children of their prophet leader, Prophet Hussein MG.

So, Steve, just changing social media profiles shouldn't be a big deal now.

I know it's the weirdest parable ever, but was my, um, my professor, uh, Dr. Popoola from Obafemi Awolowo University.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST
16:45
Yes, I went to the greatest university on the African continent.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST
16:48
So he was the one who, um, I heard that, um, uh, parable from.
NayaHOST

So let's go back to the beginning.

I studied psychology, my first degree, BSC, Obafemi Awolowo University.
NayaHOST

Then I went to France and I did a master's in international business, and when I came back to Nigeria, I had an HR internship at Flour Mills.
NayaHOST
1:41
At that point, I definitely wasn't thinking, "Hmm, okay, this is all going to lead to innovation and startups." There was no grand plan like that.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST

Now, unfortunately, our schools here in Nigeria, you know, they don't give a hoot.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST

So if I want to go back to OAU now, because that was my undergraduate degree, if I need to talk to somebody, it would be like, I don't know, it would be like trying to extract a tooth or something.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST
4:55
Because I remember when I needed to get my, what's this thing called? Transcript.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST

And I know this first time because back when I was in Obafumi Awolowo University, there was this wonderful lady that I wanted to be in a relationship with.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST
8:25
Things didn't work out, obviously, because I'm married to my wife now.
Taveshimma AyedeHOST
8:29
And I thought to myself, sorry, now you know what? Now let's have a nice romantic afternoon.

How many of you know that in the secular, you can have, say for an example, a professor of surgery from, let's say, Obafemi Awolowo University, and another professor of surgery from, say, another university in England, and then a professor of, of surgery in, say, UNILAG.
Joshua SelmanGUEST
37:19
Did you know they can meet for the first time at the surgery ward and not doubt their ability because of the, the standardization of the institution and the program that builds them? How come a Christian cannot come from Kano, another one from Lagos, another one from Imo, when we meet, we are afraid of ourselves? It means that a different curriculum is what is building us.

[cheering] Who is learning now? [cheering] No, think about it for one moment.
