Not Every Hustle Is a Choice – A Hard Truth About Life in Nigerian Tertiary Institutions

    1. Let’s talk.

    Not every girl in school doing runs is doing it for luxury.

    Some are doing it to survive—food, fees, rent, pads, data.

    Yes, even for just ₦200.

    It’s not always a lifestyle. Sometimes it’s survival. 💔🎓

    2. Before you judge, understand this:

    Some parents send their kids to school with hope, not money.

    No proper support, no feeding allowance — just “God will provide.”

    Well, hunger is not spiritual warfare. 😔

    3. These students face pressure daily:

    “Pay your hostel rent or pack out.”

    “Submit departmental dues today.”

    “You need ₦3k for a textbook.”

    All this, and no job, no help, no voice.

    4. The real tragedy?

    Society mocks them, but offers zero solutions.

    People will shame a girl for her choices, but never ask why she had to choose that path.

    We talk morality, but ignore the poverty that creates the struggle.

    5. We need to shift the conversation:

    ✅ Empower with jobs, skill training, mentorship.

    ✅ Encourage support systems — not mockery.

    ✅ Fix student welfare — not just lecture halls.

    6. Lastly:

    If you’re in school and struggling — don’t let shame silence you.

    There are people who care, who can help. Speak. Seek. Stand. ✊

    You are not alone. Your value is bigger than what life is trying to reduce you to.

    Let’s talk about it. Let’s change the narrative.
