@Postsubman I know there are Nigerians abroad wishing to build something like this here but have no one to help and supervise it. I am available. I am accountable. I am transparent in my dealings. I will gladly help on an agreed fee.
🇪🇸 Las 25 coincidencias entre la España campeona del mundo de 2010 y la de 2026. Algunas son simples curiosidades. Otras, difícilmente explicables:

2. En 2010, el Real Madrid no ganó ningún título. En 2026, tampoco.
3. En 2010, antes del Mundial, el Real Madrid anunció a José Mourinho. En 2026, ha vuelto a repetir la fórmula.
4. En 2010, el Atlético de Madrid perdió la final de Copa ante el Sevilla. En 2026, la perdió ante la Real Sociedad. Jesús Navas marcó en la primera; Mikel Oyarzabal, en la segunda. Los dos terminaron siendo campeones del mundo.

Lmao, this man sounds like it’s the first time.
When will you people understand, or those who already understand, finally admit publicly that even the entire concept of global finance and supply chains has always been about powerful countries, especially those in the West, robbing the rest of us?
The world's richest nation just "stole" $13 Billion from one of the world's poorest nation and we are acting like nothing happened. Sigh!
Maybe I must have travelled 200 years back in time. This must be 1826 and not 2026. 🙄
America's foremost technological and innovation competitor is a nation where higher education is almost entirely Government funded.
If you are searching for the name of the nation, I can give it to you - China.
This is for those of you who uncritically regurgitate Harvard Business Review and Wall Street Journal bullshit about "private sector funded higher education".
Stop whatever you're doing and listen carefully:
AFRICOM has announced the launch of a new psychological operation meant to influence Africans towards US interests by deploying a US army cyber unit to impersonate Africans online.
Its name "Drongo" comes from the African bird that mimics other animals so that it can steal their food.
That account trying to gaslight you on Twitter with "Traoré is a brutal dictator", "The worst democracy is better than the best dictatorship", and "Stop blaming white people and hold your leaders accountable" may just be an American soldier carrying out his mission.
Use your discernment on the internet!
I was very surprised and disappointed to see the media reports today, many of which are inaccurate.
Throughout my career, I have always taken great pride in conducting myself professionally and maintaining the highest training standards.
Government cannot budget as if manna will fall from heaven.
Our Global Director @seunonigbinde called this months ago on an episode of Extra Sheet, where he explained what colour of problem this is.
Nigeria planned to spend ₦54.99 trillion in 2025.
But government didn't have ₦54.99 trillion sitting in the bank.
It expected to fund the budget through:
• Revenue
• Borrowing
• Deficit financing.
Now here's the catch.
Whatever revenue comes in doesn't go straight to building roads, schools or hospitals. Government first meets its unavoidable obligations like debt servicing and other recurrent commitments.
Capital projects are often left waiting. That's how projects meant for one budget cycle end up in the next.
If you're wondering why government projects in Nigeria drag on for years, listen to this 👉 https://t.co/cH76CAQSIj
Instead of buying over priced shitty Lagos real estate for $1 Million, invest $200,000 in a property in the Dominican Republic citizenship by investment program and with their passport you can get into 145 countries, visa free. Including the UK & EU. Better ROI for your money.
How do you realize a Record Breaking IGR
Then go ahead on a Record Breaking borrowing spree
Only to deliver a Record Breaking "nothing to show"?
FAILURE! FAILURE!! FAILURE!!!
You guys don't really know how primitive we are. Do you know it's an anomaly for everyone to be building borehole in their houses?
90% of Nigerians don't know what Central water management is. In 2026.
We have a Ministry of Water Resources, btw.
@Admiral_Cyborg Forget about fuel for one moment. Iran has been under international sanctions since I was a child. Yet they have steady and constant electricity, a functional metro system and great infrastructure. At least we saw the buildings that were been bombed.
Does Nigeria match them?
Surreal to watch the boomer (quite a few are a bit younger) "geopolitical analysts" at US think tanks lile @CSIS and the Council on Foreign Relations - endlessly rail on about China being a "revisionist power that wants to overturn the US led global rules based order" - with a combination of an utter lack of self-awareness and rank hypocrisy.
A nation kidnapped the Head of State of Sovereign nation early this year, and it wasn't China.
Same nation attempted to give Iran the same treatment - and is now in a "Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby" style dilemma.
Please note - these people had no serious objections to Trump's illegal kidnapping of Maduro, or the blank cheque Biden and Trump gave Netanyahu on Gaza. Their only objection to Trump's Iran misadventure is the execution - not the inherent illegality of the action.
Once again, American has opened the Pandora's Box. Last time around, it was the impunity of targeted assassinations with drones. Now, they've established that there's "nothing wrong with assassinating foreign leaders you do not like".
A major US politician will be assassinated by agents of a foreign power this century. You can take this to the bank - and when this happens, Americans, who have very short attention spans - and almost no appreciation of history, will not be able to connect the dots.
As for our think tank friends, they are acting "genuinely shocked" that according to the Pew Forum, China is now more popular than the United States of America. https://t.co/GJeDZA8xJx
🚨THOUGHTS 💭
Did you notice what Under Armour just did after Spain won the World Cup?
Ferran Torres scores the goal that wins the biggest game in football. He's wearing Under Armour boots. Less than 24 hours later, Under Armour posts a photo with the caption: "The boots of a champion don't come in pink."
That's not a random caption. It's a jab.
Before the tournament, pink boots were everywhere.
Nike had them.
Adidas had them.
Puma had them.
They dominated the conversation and the marketing.
Under Armour didn't try to win that conversation.
They waited for the only moment that would matter.
Because in football, trends come and go, but history only remembers one thing: who scored the goal that won the World Cup.
That's what makes this brilliant marketing. They didn't tell us their boots were better. They let football make the argument for them
