The last time I was in a relationship, I spent 88% of the time making sure she ate

I feel like Nigerian women merely like the idea of food. They never remember to eat unless you cajole them

Just beautiful women with low iron and hypoglycemia

A dead end road is a Court.
A curved road is a Crescent.
A wide and landscaped road is a Boulevard.
A road that goes east to west is an Avenue.
A road that goes north to south is a Street.
A scenic and windy road is a Drive
A road with rear garage entrance is an Alley.

Oluyole Road, allegedly, is a combination of a lot of the above 😁

Dear men,

It impresses upon my soul to write to you.

This writing is inspired by my consumption of a lot of Diogenes' work but one quote of his that massively influenced my value system, reads:

"It is the privilege of the gods to want nothing, and of godlike men to want little".

It imprinted upon my soul for a long time, especially as someone that's ambitious.

Friends, verily I say unto you:

Ambition is good but nothing is more frustrating to a man that for him to exist at the edge of a precipice where there are more factors out of his control, than within his control.

Endless chase in ambition without a defined scope is outside your control & with every season you have a new high to chase without a moment to enjoy where you are.

It becomes easy to discard your present as a valley as you glare at a new high, forgetting that your current valley used to be a mountaintop you aspired to.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is, have a number in mind. Especially as an ambitious person, have a number in mind.

The endless pursuit of ambition will leave you with a hollow soul. It will strip you of the beauty of momentary happiness, satisfaction of wins & incredible undervaluation of how far you've come.

As a young hustling man, it is important that you define what happiness and success looks like for you, and to do so early on.

The ultimate question now becomes:
Are you in control of your dreams? Or are your dreams in control of you?

The answer to this question is a predictor of your future happiness or lack thereof.

I hope my writing found you well.

As you were.

@compoundinnaira This post is timely. Africans invest heavily in the past, despise the present and don't care about the future. Let's tell ourselves the truth, African culture in itself can't take us to First World stage.

Have you been to an IVF clinic?

It cost me $18,000 to do IVF for my wife at age 34. Out of the three eggs that were inserted, only one worked. We were lucky becuse she was born with a lot of eggs and they had plenty to remove and fertilize.

I can’t count how many hundreds of women were in that clinic going through IVF, all there with their husbands. That place was always packed with women. Women in their late 20s and 30s. Some even flew from another state cause it’s cheaper there.

In fact, my wife’s friend already had two kids and was trying IVF for a girl at 33, but her eggs were of poor quality and none of them worked. The reality is that women don’t always talk about what they go through to get pregnant. People just see a 35-year-old woman having a baby and assume it happened naturally.

When it was my turn in the process, all they needed from me was to ejaculate, and I wasn’t needed again after that. Meanwhile, the women had to take an entire box of medication. And even then, some attempts still failed.

You can’t compare the two processes. If a man has low sperm quality, in many cases it can improve with lifestyle changes. But if a woman has poor egg quality, it is far more complex, expensive, and difficult to treat. It’s basic biology: men produce millions of sperm continuously, while women are born with all their eggs and lose them over time.

This is why even an 80-year-old man, like Al Pacino, can still father a child. That’s just biology.

Godbless you baba .. learning your customer purchasing behaviour is what entrepreneurs need to understand...lot of our customers respond to whatsapp messages and cals than responding to mail .

[Geekay @gkbalogs]

The Nigerian retail space has a funny contradiction: lots of money goes into building polished websites and apps, but many customers just want to chat on WhatsApp. A big share of daily transactions happens on WhatsApp and inside Instagram DMs, not on e-commerce platforms. Nigerians just prefer human interaction and flexibility over rigid digital journeys.

My friend go and open that WhatsApp Business today! That’s where discovery, trust building, negotiation, and payment all happen in one flow.

[Mark Essien @markessien]

One mistake Africans make when it comes to money is that they do not maintain capital. They earn money and build a house, buy a car, help people in the village, throw parties. They do not keep capital, they do not collaborate with others who have capital. Ownership of capital is how keep wealth over the long run.

If 5 people can jointly field 1bn, they can make more from the 1bn together than if they each had 200m.

Always grow your capital, and collaborate with people who also have capital so you can join deals. And never be greedy - the bigger your capital, the safer your investment target should be.

Work with the same people for long - if you know a retailer who regularly needs 10s of millions for restocking, be their capital provider over years. You too will know the business, and you will have a good sense of how at-risk your capital is. Chasing new ideas is often poor.

Many people have technical knowledge or access, but lack cash to execute - if you see them do it 2-5 times, join them on the 6th time with 10% of their need, then 20%, etc. Try to never cross 30% financing, otherwise you are taking all the risk.

Keep your capital liquid when it is small and lock up in safe, interest producing assets when it is large.

Only ever buy private homes or cars from your interest - your wealth is not your capital, it's your interest.

[Elyon @0xkitng]

Development Isn’t a thing in Nigeria because they are conceived as political artifacts rather than national infrastructure. Projects are scoped to fit the lifespan of a governor or president, not the operating life of the system itself.

The incentive is not to build something that works as required but something that can be launched, branded, commissioned, and photographed under the disguise of we did something spectacular. In as much as this continues, each administration must relaunch the same category of projects because the previous ones were never designed to survive political transition. The result is motion without accumulation hence why we can’t move to the next phase of development.

How many people believe in calling 112 in Nigeria? The 112 and 911 systems are not advanced technology. They are baseline state capacity. Yet in Nigeria they remain largely ineffective because they were never deployed as critical national infrastructure. They were deployed as state projects. That distinction matters. A system that exists to be announced behaves very differently from a system that exists to function as a critical infrastructure.

In South Africa, emergency response is location driven rather than conversation driven. When a call comes in, the system does not rely on the caller to narrate geography. The dispatcher sees network derived caller location, that location is resolved against a national spatial database, confidence levels are displayed, and the system automatically computes the nearest response units. If the call drops, the incident does not die because the system already has enough information to act. This is not juju sophistication for its own sake. It is a recognition that human beings under distress are unreliable narrators and that systems must compensate for that reality.

Nigeria operates the opposite model. Callers are interrogated for directions. Landmarks are subjective and inconsistent. Addressing is fragmented or nonexistent in large parts of the country. Telecom location data is not integrated into dispatch workflows despite being technically available. If a call drops, the incident often collapses because the system has no independent situational awareness. It is an architectural failure. A system that cannot reliably locate an incident is not partially broken. It is functionally broken.

This same pathology repeats across sectors. CCTV programs are a prime example. Cameras are deployed in bursts aligned with political calendars. There is no phased architecture tied to coverage density, data retention, analytics capability, maintenance funding, or integration with police command systems. The result is predictable. After the cameras are launched, budgets disappear, feeds go dark, storage fails, and no one is held accountable because the objective was never sustained surveillance. It was visibility.

A properly designed national system does not begin with optics. It begins with standards. It requires significant upfront investment and phased execution. Each phase must build on the previous one with clear performance metrics, governance structures, upgrade paths, and funding continuity. This approach looks slow and expensive at the beginning, which is precisely why Nigerian politics resists it. It does not reward immediate credit. But it is the only model that produces real capability.

Anyway, welcome to Nigeria where development is determined by the government tenure.

[DonAza @DonAzag]

For the past 2 years, I honestly don’t even know what people mean when they say national grid or “NEPA.”

Because of cases like this lady, I took my time to create three detailed lectures from a user’s point of view - not as an installer, not as a seller - but as someone who actually uses solar every day.

The goal is simple:
1. Help you understand what to buy
2. How to buy it
3. And how to avoid wasting millions and still living like you don’t have solar

Here are the videos:
1. I Pay ZERO Bills for Electricity | How? https://t.co/iWjC0xOJZ5

2. How to Get Maximum Power from Your Solar Panels: Boost Your Power Output https://t.co/FRlgWk6R83

3. Solar Buyer’s Guide: What to Buy to Stop Paying NEPA Bills Like Me! | Go Solar, Go Offgrid
https://t.co/EBSUsiaktm

Watch these before you invest millions and still end up struggling like you don’t have solar.

1. The right products matter
2. A good installer matters
3. Your understanding of how it works matters the most

That is where many people get it wrong.
Don’t allow anyone to mislead you.

I’ll be dropping another video soon to go even deeper: more practical, more real-life guidance.

And just to be clear:
This is about helping people make better decisions, not to stop demanding steady power supply from the government.

Don’t tell me it’s not the government’s responsibility. If it wasn’t, why is the Minister of Power coming out asking Nigerians to be patient?

Because it is their job.

Going solar is survival and smart thinking, but holding the government accountable is a must. If we have to get our electricity, water and security... no need for the government to exist.

[Miyandy @Amahashi_]

I worked 20 years for a child sex trafficking rescue group. I want you to know this:

90% of Lost Children Are Found Within 30 Minutes.

That statistic should both comfort you and wake you up.

Most lost children are found quickly. But the ones who aren’t? They usually made one mistake.

And here’s the uncomfortable truth:

It’s often the exact thing most parents teach them.

We tell our kids:

“If you get lost, come find me.”

It sounds logical. It sounds empowering.

It’s WRONG!

The Mistake Most Lost Children Make:

When children realize they’re separated, they do three things almost automatically:

They panic.
They wander.
They try to find you.

Every step makes them harder to locate.

From a search standpoint, movement creates chaos.

Parents retrace their steps.
Security scans zones.
Staff lock down areas.

Search works best when movement stops.

When a child keeps walking, they move outside the original search radius. Helpers are looking where they were last seen — not where they’ve wandered.

Stillness increases probability.

Movement expands the problem.

The first lesson is not “go find me.”

It’s this:

Stop. Stay. Yell.

Why Stillness Wins:

Think like a search team.

If a child stays put:

Parents can retrace steps.
Security can scan systematically.
Helpers converge to one fixed location.
The search radius remains small.
If a child keeps moving:

The search area expands.
Adults pass each other.
Missed connections multiply.
Minutes stretch into hours.
Stillness keeps the math on your side.

Teach Them Who to Approach:

The second mistake we make as parents?

We say, “Find an adult.”

Not any adult. Not the nearest stranger. Children need a filter.

Teach them to look for, if at all possible:

A mother with children.

Caregivers who already have kids with them are statistically among the safest people to approach in public settings. They are visible, stationary, and more likely to engage quickly.

It’s a clear, concrete instruction.

Children don’t process vague categories like “safe adult.”

They process visuals.

“Find a mom with kids” is visual.

A Phone Only Helps If the Number Is Known:

We often assume phones solve everything.

They don’t — unless your child can use one. Even young children can memorize a 10-digit phone number with repetition.

But you must train it.

Practice it like a song.

Sing it in the car.
Chant it at bedtime.
Turn it into rhythm.

Repetition becomes recall.

In an emergency, recall matters more than theory.

The Code Word Rule:

One more layer of protection.

Choose a private family code word.

Something only your household knows.

If someone approaches and says:

“Your mom sent me.”

Your child asks:

“What’s the code word?”

No word.
No go.

This simple rule eliminates manipulation attempts instantly.

It gives your child agency without requiring them to evaluate character.

Real Safety Is Training — Not Luck!

We don’t get safer by hoping.

We get safer by practicing.

Teach:

• Phone number
• Code word
• Stop, stay, yell
• Find a mom with kids

Multiple skills.
Simple instructions.
Clear visuals.

Five minutes of training can replace hours of panic. This isn’t about fear. It’s about preparation.

Because when a child gets separated, the clock starts.

And what they do in the first minute determines what the next thirty look like.

That’s real protection.

Nigerians were not happy about the automatic subscription on CRBT charges for that Ringtones

But they allowed it because they believed it was going to the Artiste.

Mandela - Harry Song
DoroBucci - Mavin All Stars

We should investigate what these CRBTs generated and how much the rights holders (Labels) , publisher, composers and performers got paid

That’s another era of music boom that was ruined by Music Execs , Tech Founders and NCC & NCC complicit roles .

If we don’t come correct on the Royalties Sources and distribution , una go write thread tire

[Mr. Czar @Mrczar_]

You know how people say they will do something at a particular age.

I will get married at 25

I will be a billionaire by 30

Then that age comes…and they never hit that goal. At this time they maybe 36 or 37

Then they shake it off, and maybe say to themselves - there is still time. I know I will be rich some day.

Now here is the scary thing I learnt from an older friend of mine. He said “The way the previous 20 years passed unnoticed is usually how the next one comes too…and then Most people eventually settle”.

This conversation always sends chills down my spine everytime I remember it.

The broke 60 year old you see on the road also had dreams (just like you)…they wanted to hit the gym “some day” just like you (now they are fat with a stroke).

None of us is more special than them. None of us. If we don’t wake up and stay aware - time catches up real quick.

We just have to decide that we will stop the excuses, and the delay…and take life by the bullls (abi how do they say it)

Stop saying “I will do xyz somebody”. Slam a date. Then find what you need to achieve the goal, and then go at it like crazy. The clock is ticking.
