The president of Nigeria during his speech last week, expressed that Nigerian youths are mostly lazy. Well, they started an hashtag that was the talk of town. What interested me was the number of so called lazy Nigerian youths who decided to take the bold step of becoming entrepreneurs as a result of lack of employment. I have made a list of 10 of such people. Enjoy.
I grind day and night to make 3D animations in a country like naija where you have zero support from the government on your dreams. I’m proud to make it work without the government support #LazyNigerianYouthspic.twitter.com/gNwLG4VkvQ
