Why most talented people stay broke in Nigeria

Talent is everywhere in Africa. From music to tech, art to sports — yet many talented youths remain broke. Why?

1. Lack of Exposure– Talent without visibility is like a locked treasure. No matter how good you are, if no one sees you, nothing happens.

2. No Structure– Many don’t understand branding, packaging, or monetization. Talent alone isn't enough; strategy is key.

3. No Capital or Support – Investors prefer “already made” people. Most talents fade because there's no one to believe in their raw potential.

4. Pride & Lack of Collaboration – “I no need help” mentality kills progress. The biggest stars work in teams, not alone.

5. *Distractions & Hustle Pressure* – When hunger sets in, talent becomes a side hustle. Focus gets scattered.

Africa is not short of talent — just short of systems that nurture and protect it.
