The future of healthcare is in need of innovation. On November 22, 2025, the Tayo Adenirokun Hall at the University of Lagos will welcome a gathering of innovative minds determined to shape it. The STACK Reform Health Fair, the largest student-led health-tech conference, is organised by the KB Klub, a social philanthropic organisation of medical students from the College of Medicine, University of Lagos. This year’s conference will carry the theme ‘Tomorrow’s Healthcare, Today,’ which dares participants to rethink how the nation designs, delivers, and sustains its health systems.

From its establishment in 2017, STACK has advanced from a student-organised forum into a nationwide movement that influences the vision, values, and leadership of Nigeria’s next generation of healthcare professionals. It has become a movement for translating innovative ideas into purposeful action, bridging the gap between imagination and implementation. By hosting students, professionals, policymakers, and entrepreneurs, the conference aims not only to encourage critical dialogue and practical experimentation but also to adopt a more practical approach than in the past editions.

STACK Reform ‘25 will feature keynote sessions, panel discussions, and workshops addressing important themes, including digital health and medical innovation, as well as system design and health equity. A significant highlight of the conference is the Health-Tech Expo, where five outstanding founders will present their solutions to real-world health problems, showcasing Nigerian innovation in areas like remote patient monitoring and health data management.

In addition, STACK Reform will be extending its hand to the next generation through the Northwest Petroleum Secondary School Innovation Competition. With its theme titled “Innovating for Good Health: Solutions for a Healthier Future,” the segment of the conference aims to inspire future innovators by challenging secondary school students to develop projects that tackle health challenges in their communities.

STACK Reform has evolved into a yearly awakening, challenging Nigeria’s healthcare sector to reconsider how care is delivered, systems are built, and knowledge is shared. It serves as a reminder that progress does not necessarily belong to the future; it can always begin now in the small but deliberate steps of those willing to make it happen.

More than half of Nigeria’s population is under 30. In any serious economy, that kind of demographic curve is an advantage because it means a steady supply of ideas, vitality and labour. In Nigeria, a lot of that potential is tied up in survival entrepreneurship. Young Nigerians are running retail outfits, service businesses, small manufacturing and even tech enabled ventures, but they are doing it without patient capital, without structured mentorship and without the visibility that helps a business move from roadside to growth stage. That disconnect between talent and support is not a talent problem. It is an infrastructure problem. Oya Pitch was created to sit in that gap.

Oyapitch Was Created To Change That.

It is a business and investment reality show for real entrepreneurs. The kind of SMEs and MSMEs that already have customers, already know their market, but need a bigger push. On the show, they pitch to Nigerian business leaders and get a shot at actual money, not exposure alone.

“One of the sparks for this project was seeing that many of the founders around us were not experimenting, they were already operating,” said Tobi Olutayo, Chief Commercial Officer at West Power and Gas and co-founder of Tova Studios Limited. “They were running teams, moving inventory, serving real demand, keeping the lights on. What they did not always have was capital, structure, mentorship, the right tools to scale and visibility. So, we built a platform to bring all of that into one place.”

“Nigerians are some of the most resilient business builders anywhere. When you give that kind of entrepreneur a platform, practical guidance and a community to engage with, growth accelerates. And when SMEs grow, they employ more people, formalize their operations and push more value through the supply chain. That is how it begins to show up in the wider Nigerian economy.”

How The Show Works

Each episode brings entrepreneurs into the room with three judges:

They listen, they ask the hard questions, and when a deal is not for them, you will hear the now familiar line, “THIS ONE PASS ME.” It is simply the Nigerian way of saying, I am out on this one, carry on. It keeps the tone light, but the founders still get usable feedback.

Real money, not vibes

Season 1 did not end with promises on camera. It ended with entrepreneurs leaving with real money and no strings attached. No debt. No equity. No long paperwork.

With the support of TandN Group and AJ Skylar Limited, OYAPITCH presented cash to the young entrepreneurs who came on the show to seek funding for their businesses. REDD received a total of three million naira, made up of a two-million-naira cash award and an additional one million naira.

That moment was the proof. This is not just entertainment. It is capital in the hands of Nigerian founders. It is belief made visible. And it is only the beginning.

Why focus on young Nigerians

Nigeria’s youth unemployment numbers look better on paper now because of a new way of counting jobs, but almost everyone agrees the quality of work is still a problem. A lot of young people are self-employed, doing informal gigs or running small businesses without growth capital. That is a vulnerable and often ignored group.

OYAPITCH and the wider Tova Studio ecosystem are targeting that group on purpose. The idea is simple. Find young founders early. Give them visibility. Connect them to investors. Then keep them inside a community where they can learn, collaborate and get seen again. The most vibrant demographic in the country should not also be the most overlooked.

From a show to an EcoSystem

OYAPITCH is the first pilot out of Tova Studios Limited, the media, production and entertainment company founded by Tobi Olutayo and Adewunmi O. Babatunde. The company develops premium African formats that sit where business, culture and technology meet. It produces high quality, social ready video and is building a pipeline of content that brands and investors can plug into.

OYAPITCH is just the entry point. Behind it is a growing ecosystem designed to connect founders to capital, experienced business leaders, market access and ongoing visibility. The ambition is simple. Make it normal for a young Nigerian building an SME to step onto a platform, get clear feedback, meet real investors and scale.

Beyond the content, the platform is built to unlock value for everyone in the chain. Entrepreneurs get visibility, guidance and real pathways to funding. Investors get access to a clearer pipeline of de risked, growth ready Nigerian businesses. The wider economy benefits from SMEs that can actually scale. The entertainment industry gets fresh, aspirational, locally rooted formats that audiences can watch and brands can support. OYAPITCH is not just programming. It is a catalyst.

If there’s one thing young Nigerians can agree on, it’s that talking stages these days are long, confusing, and with no clear end in sight. That’s why Closeup decided to step in with the Closer Is Better – Talking Stage Party in Owerri, helping young lovers move from endless texting to actual, confident connections.

There was music, games, laughter and of course, couples who finally got to meet in person after months of “wyd” messages. We picked up a few things from that night, and if any of these sound familiar, you just might need the Closeup treatment too.

1. You’ve been in this talking stage since Tinubu assumed office

If your relationship has survived the last two years and still hasn’t left the chatting phase, maybe it’s time to press “start.”

At the Owerri party, we had one such couple. “We connect in a way that’s hard to explain; it just feels easy, real, and comfortable. We talk almost every day, share jokes, and care deeply about each other, but for some reason, we haven’t called it dating. Maybe it’s timing. Maybe we’re both a little scared to mess up something good. Whatever it is, it’s special.”

Sometimes, the only thing left is to stop overthinking and just show up.

2. You both text all day but can’t hold a real conversation

If you always run out of things to say once you’re face to face, that’s your cue to work on a stronger connection.

You can learn a thing or a couple who first met on Telegram. “Our online chats, texts, and video calls blossomed into a deep connection. I adored her sparkling personality, intelligence, and beauty. Though we never met, our bond grew stronger each day. She became my virtual haven, a source of joy and comfort.”

Love can start in DMs, but the real spark happens when you finally meet.

3. You panic when they take more than 15 minutes to reply

If you’re already overthinking their “last seen,” you need to breathe and touch grass. Or better still, take all the necessary steps to touch your talking stage in person. And that might involve keeping an eye out for the next closer is better event.

4. You’re scared to meet up because your breath might not cooperate

Be honest, it’s crossed your mind before. What if things get a little funky mid-convo? God, abeg. Nothing ruins confidence faster than worrying about bad breath. This is where a little Closeup magic comes in. Fresh breath = confidence, and confidence = closeness.

5. You both keep saying “soon” but never plan a date

“We should link up” is not a plan, it’s a scam. Set a date, find a nice spot, and show up. You can’t start a relationship over WhatsApp forever.

“It began with a WhatsApp status. I saw his picture on his younger brother’s status, who’s my friend, and I kept going back to look at it until I replied and asked who he was. His brother sent me his number, and after texting him to tell him he had an admirer, that’s how our story started,” one couple shared.

If that’s not a sign to finally make your move, what is?

6. You’re scared of rejection

The people who had the most fun at the Talking Stage Party were the ones who took the first step.

Like this Closeup couple whose story started on Facebook. “I stalked her for over two years before I finally shot my shot. Every moment leading up to the one in which I met her somehow shaped me for that person I was fated for. Sometimes we need to know what something feels like when it’s wrong before we can really know it when another thing is right.”

A little boldness, and maybe some Closeup confidence, can change everything.

7. You’re waiting for a sign to make your move

Well, this is it. Talking stages are cute, but real connections are better. Take it from the Owerri couples who met at the Closeup Talking Stage Party; closeness only happens when you take the first step.

So, if your talking stage is starting to drag, maybe it’s time to get the Closeup treatment. Who knows? The next city might be yours.

Cross-border spending has become a necessity for many Nigerians. From paying for a child’s online exam fee to renewing a work tool subscription or booking essential travel, certain transactions require reaching beyond the country’s borders. With Nigeria’s e-commerce market projected to more than double by 2026, cross-border payments and secure online transactions are part of the momentum behind that growth. The world is increasingly part of how we live; having the ability to pay securely wherever we are is becoming a basic expectation.

The challenge has always been how to do that confidently. People want to know that their money is safe, their card will work, and they will not be surprised by complications along the way. With Naira Visa cards that confidence is now easier to carry with you.

The idea is simple. You pull out your card, make a payment, and it goes through with ease. No uncertainty. No fear that something might hold you back. Behind the scenes, Visa’s global network works with Nigerian banks to make sure the experience feels seamless, whether you are paying online for a course from an international university or tapping your card at a store on a quick trip abroad. You get the reassurance that your transaction is protected in real time, so every swipe, tap or click feels as safe as spending at home.

Security is a major part of what makes this shift important. Fraud remains a global challenge, especially with digital transactions growing quickly. The technology behind Naira Visa cards uses intelligent monitoring and multiple layers of protection to help prevent suspicious activity before it becomes a problem. If something unusual does happen, you have support and quick dispute resolution to help keep your money safe. When people feel protected, they spend more confidently; and when they spend more confidently, they unlock new opportunities.

To underline this confidence, Andrew Uaboi, Vice President and Cluster Head, Visa West Africa, explains: “Whether you’re a small business sourcing goods, a student paying tuition, or a traveler making travel plans, Visa ensures your transactions are simple, safe, and seamless,” he continued. “Cross-border payments are a vital part of today’s global economy. We understand how important it is for Nigerians to access goods and services from around the world with ease and confidence. Visa’s global network ensures greater acceptance and reliability, giving cardholders the assurance that their payments will be recognized and processed anywhere Visa is accepted.”

Convenience also plays a role. More Nigerians are earning income through remote work, global clients and creative digital businesses. Being able to pay for tools, platforms and services online using the same card in your wallet every day removes a layer of friction. It means creators can subscribe to their editing apps, freelancers can pay for hosting or advertising, parents can shop for a child studying overseas, and families can plan travel with less stress. Transactions that once felt complicated now feel normal and accessible, which is exactly how cross-border payments should feel.

This shift is also meaningful for students, professionals and entrepreneurs who are building experiences and relationships beyond Nigeria’s borders. When money moves freely, people can focus more on the things that truly matter, like unlocking new opportunities and enjoying the freedom to participate in the world without hesitation. A single card becomes a bridge that connects lifestyles, ambitions, and communities across continents.And ultimately, this is what financial confidence looks like. It is the feeling of stepping into a store in another country and knowing your Naira Visa card will work. It is knowing you are protected if something goes wrong. It is trusting that your payments will go through, smoothly and securely, anywhere Visa is accepted. The world feels closer and more welcoming when your money travels with you.

Nigerians have always been bold explorers of possibility. With the power of Naira Visa cards, that boldness now comes with more safety, more clarity and more convenience. From paying for global streaming subscriptions and cloud software to enrolling in international courses or shopping from global brands, Naira Visa cards make everyday online spending simpler and more seamless. The world is open, and your card is ready.

The world is within reach; your money should be too. Ready to experience secure spending without boundaries? Visit your bank today to activate or use your Naira Visa card for global transactions and experience secure spending without boundaries.

This year’s Iri Ji Festival was more than just a celebration of harvest, it was a powerful expression of heritage, unity, and cultural pride. And in both Abuja and Lagos, Orijin was right at the heart of it all, bringing the essence of culture to life in true Orijin fashion.

From Abuja’s vibrant displays of tradition to Lagos’s energetic showcase of community spirit, each celebration offered a unique yet equally unforgettable experience. The festival grounds came alive with the rhythm of drums, the colours of tradition, and the joyful energy of people coming together to honour the yam, a timeless symbol of gratitude and renewal.

The Orijin experience stood out as a true cultural hub in both cities. Guests were greeted by beautifully adorned dancers in traditional attire, their movements syncing perfectly with the beats of the talking drums. Around the Orijin stand, festival-goers immersed themselves in interactive cultural games, shared laughter, and created moments that reflected the rich tapestry of Nigerian life.

Of course, no Orijin experience is complete without a taste of the brand’s bold refreshment. Guests enjoyed free samplings of Orijin’s signature drinks, each sip a fusion of roots and modernity that perfectly complemented the spirit of the occasion. Whether in the Federal Capital or the heart of Lagos, Orijin reminded everyone that culture isn’t just to be seen or heard, it’s to be felt, shared, and celebrated.

Everywhere you turned, Orijin was there, fueling conversations, inspiring dance circles, and connecting generations through shared experiences. The brand didn’t just participate in the Iri Ji Festival; it elevated it, blending authenticity with enjoyment in a way only Orijin can.

In the end, the Iri Ji celebrations across Abuja and Lagos were about more than yam or harvest, they were about community, connection, and cultural pride. And through every dance, every toast, and every shared smile, Orijin ensured that the spirit of tradition remained alive and thriving.

Here’s to more moments where culture is celebrated, tradition is honoured, and the Orijin spirit keeps us rooted, across every city, every season, and every gathering.

Living in Nigeria is knowing the right people — or the right plugs — who wield the right amount of power and influence. They always come through for you in the seemingly small things, but their overall impact on your stress levels and comfort? That’s immeasurable.

If you’re Nigerian, a “plug” has definitely been useful to you in at least one of the following situations:

1. The local restaurant server who always serves you generous portions

The transaction is simple. They see you, barely acknowledge you, then get to business. In the end, you leave with a pack of food that feels heavier than it should be. In the end, you leave with a pack of food that feels heavier than it should be. While other customers get the standard measure, your plug makes sure you believe in grace. Knowing the right people >>>

2. The Bureau De Change vendor who gives you the best rates

It’s a huge flex to have this kind of plug. Until it happens to you, you don’t know how great it feels to save a significant chunk of money on these transactions. You walk past the haggling masses, exchange your funds with a quiet handshake, and feel like you’ve just unlocked a cheat code for the Nigerian economy.

3. The classmate who diligently saves you a seat, no matter the conditions

You know how it goes. You send them a text or make a call, informing them you’re on your way, and they take it from there. You arrive at the packed lecture hall, and a seat — sometimes even two, for your bag — is waiting for you

4. The store owner who adds something to your purchase free of charge

It’s almost like they’re giving you a loyalty reward for surviving in Nigeria. You leave their stall feeling like you just won the lottery, all because they slipped you two extra seasoning cubes. Maybe that’s why you go back.

5. The POS merchant who saves you a trip to the ATM

Don’t lie, when was the last time you joined a long ATM queue? That’s for suckers, thanks to the trusted POS kiosk on your street.

Your plug always has cash, doesn’t claim the machine is “offline,” and has a service charge that feels almost reasonable. A genuine lifesaver.

6. The Mechanic Who Doesn’t Give You An Unexpected, Life-Altering Bill

This plug is your personal saviour. They speak the secret language of your engine, actually diagnose the problem, and give you a quote that doesn’t require you to sell a kidney.

7. The Fuel Attendant Who Actually Sells You Fuel When There’s a Scarcity

While every other station has a chaotic crowd and attendants shaking their heads, your plug sees you, gives you a secret signal, and directs you to a pump they just “saved” for you. They make you feel like you’re God’s favourite.

If you love the idea of plugs, you can be one and make money off it. The AltFellowship Initiative, is your pathway to transform your influence into impact and income. Whether you’re a content creator, storyteller, or digital influencer, this program connects you to meaningful earning opportunities for the alternative bank.

Fellows earn points (redeemable for cash rewards) based on qualifying actions such as account openings, participation in community activations, and referrals of new customers or AltFellows.
