Thanks to the Jagaban for starting this cute gesture. So open and free. Enviable.
It's sad how responsible she dresses until PASTORS tell her she needs to be 'free'. Imagine who's usually encouraging it, christains.

And they had to make her wear Tinubu's cap?
What happens to a cap that would symbolize intellect or leadership?
So much for forcing this failed ideology down the throat of people at the slightest chance.
Anyways, "Etiyemonu" translates to what please?

All winners since 2000 are from Lagos State Public Schools as they are picked from the Spelling Bee Competition organised for State owned schools.

It was initiated when Tinubu was the governor of Lagos State and they have been wearing the cap since inception.

So if she doesn't wear tinubu's infamous cap, they won't give her the seat?

Congrats to her. It’s not an easy feat winning the state debate. It’s always a war and for her to win, she’s smart. So kudos.

People initiate things all the time and it doesn't mean their personal symbols must be attached to it.
It's supposed to be governor of "lagos state" and the occupier should wear something with the insignia of lagos state if necessary.
Or maybe something to promote the spelling bee that led her to the seat.
Even Sanwo Olu isn’t wearing Tinubu's cap.

And when you, the academic people finished the research, only you will consume it.


Nation not only built around academic life alone,but all human endeavours, you choose the one you like and let others enjoy what they like too, so far, it's within legal boundary.


I doubt if you ever reasoning with your academic geniuses, why marketers always outnumbered quality control officers and scientists in any given company that producing a product

The thing is quite annoying, for the name it means I put or add mouth or talk in Igbo , I don't know what it means in Yoruba, if the girl is igbo, then I kind of see the reason why they may have forced the cap on her because I know I may have seen some other winners who were not forced to wear the cap...

If he reach your turn when you pioneer anything(which I doubt anyway), tell those that continue after you not to show or display any symbol that honor you as the originator.
