Failure is the key to success. The goal was to create wallpaper, but they failed. Alfred Fielding and Mark Chavanne wrapped shower curtains together in 1957. The trapped air bubbles made the wallpaper inferior. No one wanted it, and there was no need for it. They tried to sell it as insulation for greenhouses, but it failed again—the market rejected it. Then IBM needed something to protect its new computers during shipping. The devices were expensive, fragile, and the old packaging didn't work efficiently enough. Sealed Air, the company founded by Fielding and Chavanne, presented its product, and IBM accepted. The bubble-filled plastic protected the devices—and it worked. They called it "bubble wrap." It protected things. Here's the truth: simple, straightforward, and useful—by 1960, bubble wrap had found its purpose, not as wallpaper or insulation, but as protection for fragile items during transit. Today, Sealed Air Corporation generates annual revenues exceeding $5 billion, and its failures have become its fortune, and its mistakes have become its mission. Sometimes failure is the best thing that can happen to you. ~ Mechanic Mix

Hospitals Struggle as Nurses’ Strike Leaves Patients Stranded Across Nigeria Hospitals across the country have been thrown into chaos as nurses began a nationwide strike on Tuesday, July 30, leaving patients in urgent need of care stranded. The strike, called by the National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives (NANNM), has brought many public hospitals to a standstill, affecting both routine and emergency services. From Lagos to Abuja, Enugu to Kano, patients have shown up at hospitals only to meet locked wards, empty nurses’ stations, and overwhelmed doctors trying to manage what they can. Why Are Nurses Striking? At the heart of the strike are issues nurses say they’ve been dealing with for year poor pay, unsafe working conditions, and severe understaffing. “We're tired of working ourselves to the bone and still going home with peanuts,” one nurse in Lagos said. “We’re not machines. We deserve decent wages and a safe environment to do our jobs.” The nurses are also demanding the recruitment of more hands to ease the pressure on existing staff. Many say they’ve been doing the work of three or four people, leading to exhaustion and burnout. The strike is currently planned as a warning action, but the union has warned that if nothing is done, it may evolve into a full-blown, indefinite strike. Patients Left in Limbo The effect on everyday Nigerians has been immediate and painful. In many hospitals, outpatient services have been suspended, elective surgeries postponed, and patients needing daily care left unattended. Kemi, a mother of two, arrived at a government hospital in Abuja to get treatment for her son but was told no nurses were on duty. > “The doctors were trying, but they couldn’t do it all. They asked us to come back next week or go to a private hospital. But where’s the money for that?” she said. For many like Kemi, private hospitals aren’t even an option due to the high costs. What’s Next? So far, the government hasn’t released any official statement. But behind closed doors, talks are reportedly ongoing to calm the situation and prevent things from getting worse. Health workers and citizens alike are calling on the government to treat the matter with urgency before it leads to more suffering or worse, loss of lives. > “We don’t want to strike,” another nurse said. “But we also can’t keep suffering in silence. Something has to change.”

Teamwork. Grit. Vision. That’s what #DTSEnugu2025 was built on. I’ve always believed that teamwork makes the dream work, but this event gave me a whole new lens on what’s truly possible when a highly motivated team rallies around a shared mission. With barely a month to plan and almost zero funding, we pulled off what many are calling the most talked-about tech event in Enugu since the Enugu Tech Festival. 🔥 Back-to-back momentum. ⚡ Zero excuses. 🚀 Maximum impact. If you were part of this magic — on stage, behind the scenes, or in the crowd — drop a 🔥 in the comments and let’s relive the moment. What stood out the most for you? Let’s celebrate what we’ve started. #yusocial #StartupSouth
