- ID Cabasa challenges the belief that age equates to wisdom.
- He emphasizes that older individuals are not inherently smarter or more capable.
- The distinction between experience and wisdom is highlighted; more life experience does not guarantee better decision-making.
Nigerian music producer ID Cabasa recently shook up a common belief: that getting older automatically makes you wiser.
He made it clear that he’s not saying older people aren’t smart or capable. Rather, he pointed out that most of the time, people confuse experience with wisdom. Just because someone has lived longer doesn’t mean they make better decisions it just means they’ve seen more.
His Words:
“The assumption that the older you get, the wiser you are is an assumption that has never been true. I am not saying older people are not wise or smart. Most times people see themselves as wiser because they’re more experienced not competent”drawing a sharp line between living through situations and actually learning from them.
It’s a reminder for all of us not to assume that age equals insight. Wisdom isn’t just about counting years; it’s about how we think, the choices we make, and how we handle life’s challenges.
ID Cabasa’s words make you pause and ask: are we really learning from our experiences, or are we just letting time pass and calling it wisdom?

In other news…Nollywood comedian and content creator Okemesi has reportedly fallen into a coma following complications from medication he received at a hospital.
Fellow actor Jeff Owolewa, popularly known as Tony Montana, shared the update on Instagram on Monday evening.
This news comes just two days after Okemesi moved into a new apartment provided for him by the public.
Okemesi, whose real name is Bamidele Tope Saint, had appealed for financial help a few weeks ago after illness left him without a home.
In a recent update, Jeff Owolewa revealed that Okemesi had to be hospitalized again due to adverse effects from the drugs administered by the hospital that treated him previously.
Jeff explained that Okemesi faced rejection from several hospitals before being readmitted to the first facility that had discharged him last week. He is currently in a coma.
Calling on Nigerians to keep Okemesi in their prayers, Jeff also appealed for financial support to cover his ongoing medical care.
Jeff said “Guys, Okemesi has been hospitalised again. He was sleeping all through Saturday and Sunday without having much appetite for food due to complications from the drugs that were given to him from the hospital when he was discharged last week.
“I rushed to his house very early on Monday to take him to hospital. He was rejected in different hospitals including a government hospital in Igodo, the doctor refused to attend to him saying there’s no bed space. I have to take him back to the first private hospital that started his treatment. So they admitted him, and stabilised him.
“His breathing is improving. So, he has been in coma since Monday morning. They have placed him on oxygen. We’re all praying that he gets back on track.”
