Victor Prince Dickson, a renowned problem solver, has launched a new board game called “National Cake” aimed at transforming Nigeria through “human engineering.”
At the Private unveiling and launching of national cake on Thursday in Abuja.
This innovative game focuses on optimizing human potential by identifying and nurturing individuals capacity to create positive impact.
Dickson believes that most Nigerians are “human liabilities” who take more from the system than they give.
He argues that solving hunger and other systemic problems requires addressing the underlying issue of capacity and productivity.
By teaching people to create value through their brains, individuals can lift themselves out of hunger and contribute to the country’s growth.
The “National Cake” game is an interactive tool that combines Nigerian history, future prospects, and gameplay to educate people about complex issues.
Players learn about Nigeria’s history, strengths, weaknesses, and potential for improvement, fostering a sense of national awareness and pride.
The game promotes critical thinking and analysis, encouraging players to explore Nigeria’s history from various perspectives.
The “National Cake” game has several objectives:
The game aims to reduce the desire of many Nigerians to leave the country in search of better opportunities abroad by promoting a sense of pride and ownership among Nigerians, particularly the youth.
The game teaches players about Nigeria’s rich history and the contributions of iconic figures like Nnamdi Azikiwe and Obafemi Awolowo.
The game empowers individuals with skills and knowledge to generate their own value and prosperity, rather than relying on temporary solutions.
The “National Cake” game will be made accessible to Nigerians through Project GIANT. Initially, the game will be priced at ₦25,000, but with the support of well-meaning Nigerians, the goal is to make it free for organizations.
He said that letters have been sent to major ministries, including Sports, Education, Culture and Tourism, and others.
The response varies based on each ministry’s vision and priorities, with those that prioritize building quality Nigerians likely to support the initiative.
The “National Cake” game is a innovative solution to Nigeria’s complex problems. By promoting critical thinking, national awareness, and pride, the game has the potential to transform individuals and the country as a whole.
With its accessibility and affordability goals, the game can reach a wide audience and make a positive impact on Nigerian society.
