The hashtag #At23 has been trending on Twitter with over one million tweets showing Nigerians talking about their experiences when they were aged 23.

A medical doctor, @docneto tweeted, “At 23, I was finishing up medical school. After intern year, I went on to become a medical resident. One of my interns, later on, was in his 60s and old enough to be my grandpa. He went to med school at aged 57. The only race in life is against you.”
Popular Twitter user, @OgbeniDipo tweeted, “At 23 I graduated from University with a degree in Accounting. I had a clue about what I wanted to do with my life but nothing was certain. I wasn’t confused but I didn’t have any serious plans, strategy, or answers for the future. 2 years later at 25, things were much clearer.”
Another Twitter influencer, @deejayfaremi wrote, “If you are over 23, what you did or what you were at 23 is of little/no relevance. Focus on the future, it’s full of possibilities. Whatever you do, just keep going. Keep trying to be your best version. The future holds so many possibilities and the past can’t be changed.”
“Our society’s obsession with achievement before a certain age is toxic and unhealthy, you made it at 23 doesn’t mean everyone should too, let people move at their own pace,” @_ManLikeAJ wrote.
Also, @iAm_MEdAL tweeted, “At 23, I was writing my final year project while also thinking about the future. 25 now, done with NYSC and can’t figure out anything.”
