The Price of Mocking Brilliance: A Nation that Rewards Mediocrity.

(The Nafisa Abdullahi Scandal).

By George Omagbemi Sylvester | Published by SaharaWeeklyNG.com

On August 28, 2025, the Federal Government of Nigeria staged what it believed was a moment of national pride: the celebration of a 17-year-old girl, Nafisa Abdullahi from Yobe State, who conquered the globe at the TeenEagle Global English Championship in London. What should have been a defining national moment (a victory of knowledge over adversity) quickly degenerated into a spectacle of ridicule when the government handed her a paltry cash reward of ₦200,000.

Yes, ₦200,000. Not a scholarship. Not a guaranteed pathway to higher education. Not even a well-structured mentorship programme. Just ₦200,000, a sum that evaporates before the ink on a bank teller’s slip dries. This was Nigeria’s GIFT to brilliance.

The Arithmetic of Insult.
To appreciate the depth of this insult, one must juxtapose it with Nigeria’s lavish treatment of sportsmen. Just weeks earlier, victorious athletes returning from global tournaments were rewarded with $100,000 each (over ₦160 million). They were celebrated like royalty, paraded before cameras, and their feats were treated as national salvation. Yet Nafisa, who carried the nation’s banner through intellect, was invited all the way from Damaturu to Abuja only to be mocked with a cheque that barely covered the cost of her journey.

Transportation, accommodation and feeding for such a trip would eat deep into the so-called reward. By the time Nafisa and her parents return to Yobe, what is left of this “NATIONAL HONOUR”? It is not recognition; it is TOKENISM. It is not celebration; it is CONTEMPT.

As Nigerian writer Chinua Achebe once warned, “A man who brings home ant-infested faggots should not complain when visited by lizards.” By offering Nafisa ₦200,000, the government brought home the ant-infested wood of mockery and it should not be surprised that lizards of public outrage came crawling.

Spectacle Over Substance.
This ₦200,000 insult reveals something deeper: a governing philosophy that values spectacle over substance. Sports victories provide cameras, applause and quick political mileage. Intellectual triumphs, by contrast, are quieter, less glamorous and yield no instant political dividends. In the theatre of Nigerian governance, INTELLECT is BORING; MUSCLE is MARKETABLE.

History tells us otherwise. Nations do not rise on the strength of athletes; they rise on the foundation of ideas. Japan rebuilt itself after World War II not by producing football stars but by investing heavily in education and technology. South Korea transformed from poverty to prosperity through engineers, scientists and innovators. Singapore, once dismissed as a swamp, became a global giant by treating education as sacred.

Nigerian leaders know these facts but choose to ignore them. As Nelson Mandela rightly said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” Yet, in Nigeria, education is treated like an unwanted burden and mocked with crumbs, underfunded in the budget and constantly sacrificed on the altar of political expediency.

The Economics of Shame.
What does ₦200,000 mean in real terms? In today’s Nigeria, it cannot pay a semester’s tuition at a modest private university. It cannot buy a decent laptop and guarantee a year of reliable internet access. It cannot sponsor participation in another international competition without the help of benevolent sponsors. Meanwhile, ₦160 million (the amount lavished on athletes) can pay for a PhD at Harvard, buy a home in Abuja, and still fund a scholarship foundation for dozens of students.

This is not a call to envy athletes. Sports INSPIRE and UNITE, their role is vital; but the DISPARITY is OBSCENE. When muscle is worth 800 times more than brain, what message does that send to Nigerian children? That the pursuit of intellect is a fool’s errand? That the path of books leads only to mockery?

One angry father captured the national mood on social media: “MY DAUGHTER ASKED ME, DADDY, IS IT BETTER TO BE A FOOTBALLER THAN TO BE INTELLIGENT? I had no answer.” That is the generational damage inflicted by Nigeria’s warped reward system.

The Global Contrast.
Elsewhere, intellectual triumphs are immortalized. Malala Yousafzai of Pakistan, who championed education against all odds, became a Nobel Laureate and a global ambassador for learning. India celebrates its top students with scholarships and mentorship opportunities. Rwanda invests deliberately in the education of its brightest minds as part of its national development strategy.

Nigeria, by contrast, throws billions at political allowances, lavish banquets and football matches while mocking intellectual heroes with what amounts to spare change. As Professor Wole Soyinka once lamented, “You cannot give what you don’t have. If leaders lack respect for knowledge, they cannot nurture it in society.”

Tokenism as Policy.
The tragedy is not just the ₦200,000 itself. It is the message behind it; that Nigeria does not consider INTELLECTUAL EXCELLENCE WORTHY of INVESTMENT. This tokenism is symptomatic of a broader disease. Education budgets are slashed. Teachers are unpaid for months. Pupils sit on bare floors in leaking classrooms. Millions of children are out of school, yet those who manage to shine are mocked with crumbs.

This is not accidental; it is deliberate. A society that does not value education is easier to CONTROL, easier to MANIPULATE and easier to EXPLOIT. Ignorance becomes a tool of governance. Such a society is also doomed to stagnation, trapped in cycles of poverty and mediocrity.

What Could Have Been.
Imagine if Nafisa’s victory had been rewarded with a full scholarship to one of the world’s leading universities. Imagine if the government had established an “INTELLECTUAL HEROES FUND” to support young Nigerians who excel on the global stage. Imagine if the President himself had hosted her at Aso Rock, telling every Nigerian child watching: See what books can do. This is the path to greatness.

Instead, Nafisa was handed ₦200,000; less than what a minister might spend on lunch. This is how nations kill dreams.

The Path Forward.
Nigeria must decide what it values. If it values fleeting applause, it will continue to reward spectacle while starving substance. If it values true progress, it must place education at the centre of national life. This requires more than rhetoric. It requires a philosophy shift:

Scholarships for Global Champions ~ Every student who lifts Nigeria’s name on the global intellectual stage must be guaranteed full scholarships and mentorship opportunities.

Creation of a National Education Heroes Fund ~ To support young minds beyond tokenism.

Reordering of National Priorities ~ Budgetary allocations must reflect the centrality of education, not the luxury of politicians.

Cultural Reorientation ~ We must teach children that intellect is not only valuable but sacred.

As the late Kofi Annan once said, “Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.” Nigeria cannot afford to trivialize this truth.

Nafisa: A Shining Light Amid Darkness.
Yet, even in the face of national mockery, Nafisa Abdullahi remains a symbol of hope. She has proven that Nigerian children, though raised in broken classrooms and neglected by the state, can still shine before the world. Her story must inspire others to know that brilliance is priceless, regardless of governmental tokenism.

The shame belongs not to her but to Nigeria; a country that rewards genius with peanuts while lavishing fortunes on spectacle. As history has shown, nations that mock education collapse under the weight of ignorance, while those that nurture it rise to greatness.

The Price of Mocking Brilliance.
On August 28, 2025, Nigeria mocked brilliance with ₦200,000. It revealed to the world not only its poverty of vision but also its hostility to intellect. Nafisa Abdullahi’s triumph could have been a national rallying point for millions of children. Instead, it became a metaphor for Nigeria’s misplaced values.

One day, history will remember that Nigeria once mocked genius with ₦200,000. By then, perhaps, the nation will understand the true cost of its shame.
