I used to think my father was the man paying our school fees.

I used to think he was the one providing for us.

I used to think my mother was simply ‘supporting’ her husband.

I was wrong.

Years later, I discovered that the woman I thought was being supported was actually the one carrying almost everyone.

And that realization changed how I see marriage forever.

This is my story.

I have observed something about Aliko Dangote.

He knows how to throw subtle jabs at you, but still makes you feel comfortable receiving the jabs.

He could tell you something like:

"I know that you're poor, but poverty looks better on you than it does on me"

😂 😂 😂 😂

End.

Tech is a generational industry. It can change your entire family’s life.

My dad is in tech.
My brother is in tech.
My cousin is in tech.

All making six figures with a stable tech career.

Here’s how you can do the same with your family...

Alright, back to the DM story that I posted this evening from a man that is sleeping with his best friend's wife-to-be.

First, let me apologise for not using proper line spacing on that post. It was cramped.

I decided to engage with him in a conversation.

The girl is 26.

He is 29.

His friend is 30.

His friend and the girl have been together for one year.

On and off.

Broke up plenty times but he always went back.

The friend travelled to Europe for business.

That was when it started.

They have been having sex for one week now.

He said she was the one that seduced him.

She used to call him when she was feeling down.

She told him she felt good whenever she was with him.

After the first time he wanted to stop.
She blackmailed him.

Reminded him that she was coming to his place without the friend knowing.

The friend wants to propose.

She doesn’t know.

He asked me what he should do in practical terms.

I told him there is no easy way out.

He betrayed his best friend because of pussy.

If he keeps quiet, he will remain at her beck and call.

If he speaks out, he loses the friendship and probably his job.

He is in a deep mess.

The foolishness of a woman is a man’s weakest link.

Choose your foolish woman carefully.

He asked why she chose him when there are thousands of men.

I asked him why he chose his best friend’s girl when there are thousands of women.

He said he was stupid.

He knows.

He is thinking of telling the friend the truth.

But he is afraid of losing his job and starting from scratch.

He asked if the friend will ever forgive him.

I told him if I am the one, I will not forgive him.

He thanked me for my candor.

Then he complained that I posted the story and the comments are full of insults.

I have given him the best answer I can give.

He can go and share the story with someone else if he likes.

Men will always find a way to explain why they entered another man’s house.

She seduced me.

She blackmailed me.

I wanted to stop.

None of that changes the fact that you laid down with your best friend's woman.

A man that can do this to his best friend can do it to anybody.

Men can betray their fellow men because of sex, far more than they can betray you because of money.

End.

I want to give @OoTheNigerian and @YusufAsunmogejo their flowers for adding to the intellectual marketplace that is Twitter for their reasoned opinions on the cost of education.

If I’ve missed any other intelligent views, pls let me know. I still have more flowers to hand out 😊 I like to learn.

I may disagree but I love listening to opposing views. It makes the overall conversation richer, and unbiased/neutral listeners walk away more enlightened.

As such:
Vitriol, name-calling, insults —> block.

Fact-based, forceful, even vehement disagreement grounded in logic —> very welcome.

@drNazObinna @dammiedammie35 Did I say that?😂😂😂

This is the best commercial I’ve ever seen @carmenL_v2 you’re so damn talented ♥️

[Michael Taiwo @AskMichaelTaiwo]

Found a way around this. Chat is still working so you can just do your work in Chat until ChatGPT Work (which is based on Codex) is back.

It's a temporary workaround but the show must always go on.

Some of us are building empires, no time to waste.

The sooner the better please!

Gabriel Odusanya is a 21 year old cybersecurity professional. Founder of OffShield Security (@offshield_ai ) . Application security engineer. Educator. The work is offensive-driven application and product security, and training people who are just getting into the field.

He has trained over 300 students on how to actually start in cybersecurity. He trained the 20 students who recently graduated from the fully funded scholarship at TechAccess Foundation(@Techaccessfound ) .
He is the cybersecurity facilitator at Grazac Academy (@grazacng ) and also owns a YouTube channel focused on application security for beginners. He has worked inside organizations as a security engineer and as CTO, securing their infrastructure, not writing theory.

At API Shield Summit 1.0 he won the cybersecurity quiz and the hackathon. That gave him three API security vouchers: ACP, CASA, and ASCP. He is CASA and ACP certified. He is waiting on the ASCP result. He does security research.

In 1 year 9 months he has built a name off output, not job titles.

This is what Gabriel Odusanya wants the world to know and see. A 21-year-old from this side of the map who did not wait for a senior role before teaching, testing, and shipping. Someone who puts beginners into AppSec with their hands on real applications.

Someone who can sit in a room as an appsec engineer or CTO and secure what is already live. Someone collecting API security credentials because that is the work he does CASA done, ACP done, ASCP next. Someone whose YouTube, classroom, and research are the same person: break the app, explain the break, train the next person to find it.

Not a generic cybersecurity profile. Application security. Offensive work. Training. Research. Proof in public. That is the picture.

If you are building something, a product, a team, a cohort, a fintech, an academy, whatever it is

Gabriel Odusanya is a go to. Let’s work together.

When introducing someone, use what you actually know about them.

A person who has just started learning a skill does not need you announcing them as an expert to help them feel good.

Now somebody wants to hire the expert. The expert is looking at you.

You can speak well of people without creating a job description they cannot defend.

[Temitope Sobulo🛡️ @TemitopeSobulo]

When I say cost of marrying a wrong partner is 100% valid reason to STAY AWAY FROM DATING MEN!

imagine after building my life step by step, I should end up with someone like the guy who admitted to cheating because his babe is dragging him through mud. How am I suppose to know if someone will move this way 5yrs or 10yrs into the marriage. You are filthy enough to cheat, you now went lower to cheat with person wey no get shame abi na two of Una no get shame 🤮🤮🤮🤮

Shame will not allow me to be identified as his wife 😎

[Master Togan @Getinwithgame]

There are two things you must prove to a woman if you want her to stay attracted:

[Master Togan @Getinwithgame]

The more polite you are to women, the less likely they will want to have sex with you.

Politeness signals:

[Àgbà John Doe (back up) @jon_d_doee]

I have a question for married men.

You're happy with your wife.

You love your children.

But after years of being married and still raising your children, do you, at some point, feel like you shouldn't have entered marriage at all?

Like.. "why did I choose marriage?"

[Àgbà John Doe @jon_d_doe]

A young girl (23), and her boyfriend (27) are having issues.

As they exchanged words, she struck him on his face.

He returned the favour and she decided to call her parents who are fully aware of their relationship and approve of it.

They have been dating for 4 years.

Her parents immediately told her to apologise to her boyfriend, then they also called her boyfriend and asked him to apologise to their daughter.

Were her parents wrong for asking their daughter to apologise and not asking her to leave the relationship?

End.

[Osaretin Victor Asemota @asemota]

Very, very true. I clocked this at age 7. People never put effort into things that will really make them great; they get distracted by things that won't. At 7, I read a lot about great men and what set them apart. It was three things:

1. Organization - Most great people I know have very organized and focused minds, leaving little room for distractions.

2. Consistency - You really become the greatest by constantly improving on your best. Most great people don't do one thing, get applause, and then go back to mediocrity. They consistently improve. Wahab Sarumi proved this in university. He saved me.

3. Discipline - Most great people need discipline to achieve the two things above. Sometimes what we call “hard work” is just discipline in action. Disciplined people always work hard, but hardworking people are not always disciplined.

Lack of discipline and a lack of delayed gratification are what typically lead to most failures. I have seen people who work hard and still do not improve because, in one area of their life, they try to overcompensate for that effort with overindulgence.

It could be liquor, leisure, or leverage, according to Charlie Munger. The three deadly sins are subtly being advertised to us daily by people who have made fortunes by capitalizing on human weakness.

Very few fortunes are made from “selling human discipline.” People buy things like gym memberships and never follow through. Most fortunes are made by people who sell to “human weakness” and they are also never high on their own supply. The biggest tech billionaires try to get their kids to largely avoid the tech they sell because they know the dangers of their product.

Discipline is all conquering, and the greatest battlefield is the mind. Our temptations change over time. Once, I was a slave to my hormones, but I was making enough money to support the habit.

I later became addicted to crisis, thinking it was hard work. So-called workaholics also lack discipline. It takes a lot of effort to say no at both extremes. I eventually found the middle way, at great cost.

I am great to my family, and that is the most important thing in the world to me.
