God bless u for this comment, if Akinosu had reasoned that way by saying in five years time, I'll be a mother with five kids and av adorable husby, she wouldn't av gotten to this height today. There s nothing bad if a lady aspires to marriage, but its honoring wen she also knows she needs to fulfill destiny and also become great herself too& not tie her destiny to any man. Some girls are the ones that make men like buhari, think women are meant for the kitchen & other room. if d President is right, why do we have girls that are academically & intellectually sound? Pls ladies aim higher, u r also part of human existence.
I'm liking you right now kiss grin.. This is the most sensible post i have ever read from a girl

Although I have not been to airport before.

But by this time of 2022,

I would have;

1. Graduated from university.

2. Traveled Worldwide as I like. And

3. Happily married.
try to have a realistic dream. Second dream is unrealistic.

She knows where she's coming from!..
Nigeria doesn't have such platform .. I watched some guys play at a local field in our area till now they still there without even a Nigerian club side.and you hear lahm joining bayern when he was 11. We'd get such environment someday. That doesn't mean you can't create your own environment or set goals .. Everything eez possible

A reminder that dream doesn't cost a thing..You can dream as "unrealistically impossible" as you want..just back it up with the necessary intensity and dedication.

You see the dream of a typical Nigerian lady.....marry a rich husband,they never think about making money for themselves. Just a few of them..compare that lady's dream n yours,am sure she also wants to marry.

AdoraAmadi:
At 17 years old, Nigerian born US athlete Morolake Akinosun shared a dream on Twitter that, by 2016 when she will be 22, she would graduate from a university she hadn't not chosen yet, and go to the Olympics and win a gold medal.

Five years on, all of those 3 dreams have become a reality.

This 2016, Morolake Akinosun went to the Olympics, won a gold medal and by this Saturday will graduate from The University of Texas.

The proud achiever took to Twitter to update fans on her achievement. See photo below:

The 22-year-old runner told Buzzfeed News she posted the tweet in 2011 after watching the World Championships for Track and Field.
"At the time I tweeted that out, it was more of a dream and an aspiration," she said. "I wasn't on the level yet and I didn't know for sure that I would every get there, but I for sure wanted to get there."

Ms Akinosun had forgotten about the tweet until it came up on her Timehop app.

I truly believed this was a goal of mine, and I dreamed big, and I was able to achieve my dream. I want to encourage girls to go ahead and go after it, no matter how big it is, no matter how many people think your dream is unachievable.

you are really dumb, where did you see marry a rich man or is it even a crime to marry a rich man, and who told you am not making money, am still making money and need a family my dear, is not all about money but fulfilling your dream and having a nice family to enjoy it with you, that dream i have achieved, so next time, understand one's comment before quoting, some guys mentality are really too low.
