I presently stay in Ikorodu and I have heard and see people react to me negatively once I mention where I live in Lagos. Infact I lost a job opportunity just because I live in Ikorodu, the MD of the company said to me that my choosing to live in Ikorodu is a bad decision making, how can someone so resourceful as you, choose to live in Ikorodu” It pained me and I made him a promise in my heart… I am happy for you Janet Omole and it’s truly

In the same breath I’m also truly sad for my country Nigeria as their gain equates almost always to our loss as a country in dire need of trained medical personnel. No sane person will blame you as the blame must go to our visionless leadership.

Instead of creating an enabling environment where everyone can become their best they have turned this country into a giant nursery for breeding the best minds in the world.

All the same good luck to you in your sojourn and I do sincerely pray that one day you will still look back to give back to this “ nursery “ despite it’s tragic inconsistencies.
