Vet

[Dauda Loksha, DVM @DaudaLoksha]

At its core, veterinary medicine is about enhancing the bond between humans & animals. Whether it's through preventative care, medical treatment, or simply providing comfort & companionship, vets play a vital role in enriching the lives of both animals & their human caretakers.

@Omojuwa Happy birthday, JJ!

A Nigerian vision on a global stage.

At Times Square, New York City, our President/Chief Executive, Aliko Dangote, joined members of the Dangote leadership team as the story of Dangote Petroleum Refinery lit up one of the world’s most iconic locations.

With him were Halima Aliko Dangote, Fatima Aliko Dangote, Zouera Youssoufou, David Bird, Murat Erden, Ibrahim Dikko Adamu, Muhammad Jamilu and Anthony Chiejina.

A moment that reflects the scale of our ambition and our continued commitment to building world-class African enterprises.
Made in Nigeria. Built for the world.

We spent months tracking 5,467 bets from Nigeria's biggest sports betting influencers.

The bets were worth ~$4.8 million.

We wanted to answer a simple question:
If you followed their bets exactly, would you make money?

The answer is no.🧵👇

I sent one of my Iranian friends in the United States a news report about the Speaker of the Norwegian Parliament, Masud Gharahkhani. He occupies the highest elected office in Norway after the King in the country’s constitutional order. Born in Tehran, Iran, he arrived in Norway as a refugee with his family in 1987. What began as sharing an interesting story quickly became a conversation about civilisations, and one observation proved difficult to dismiss.

For all its conflicts, and for all its hypocrisies and prejudices, Western civilisation remains the most accommodating of outsiders. You may marshal elegant arguments or even write a thesis against that proposition, but it is difficult to identify another part of the world that has consistently entrusted so much political, economic and social power to immigrants and foreign-born citizens. The evidence is visible in parliaments, city halls, universities, boardrooms and courts across the Western world.

Meanwhile, some of us are still trapped in societies where even a fellow citizen can be denied opportunities in the very town he was born and has lived all his life simply because his parents came from another region, or because he belongs to the wrong ethnic group or professes the wrong faith. That remains the primitive rung on which many societies outside the West are still stranded.

The fact that two of the world’s most influential cities, New York and London, have elected Muslim mayors is telling. It becomes even more striking when one considers the growing number of immigrants and foreign-born citizens who occupy sensitive public offices across Europe and North America. My Iranian friend is himself an illustration of that openness. He moved to the United States for postgraduate studies and has since risen to a senior position in a leading organisation. Whenever we discuss America, his dominant sentiment, despite his disapproval of the politics of certain American leaders, is gratitude for the opportunities it afforded him.

This openness is also one reason liberal democracies in the West have proved incredibly resilient. Despite the rise of populists, authoritarians and the far right, their greatest opponents are often their own citizens. The culture of relentless self-criticism, the independence of institutions, a free press, competitive elections and courts willing to check executive power have enabled these societies to correct themselves repeatedly. That does not mean the West is free of racism, Islamophobia, xenophobia, inequality, colonial legacies or political polarisation. It means that, despite these flaws, it has built institutions capable of challenging prejudice rather than permanently surrendering to it—and that’s a lesson for us. That capacity for self-correction may well be its greatest civilisational strength.

MTN Nigeria PLC Q2 2026 Results

Clearly, you can not grow at a "very high rate" forever. We are beginning to see a "high base effect" panning out.

Numbers were strong nonetheless, as MTNN is edging closer to the 100m subscribers mark.

Outlook remains very strong, and the lad declared ₦26.0 interim dividend (to be paid on September 7, 2026, to shareholders who hold the shares as of August 20, 2026).

A ₦26.0 dividend means ₦545bn, implying 77% of its half-year earnings.

Last year, the company paid ₦5.0 interim dividend. So the dividend is up 5x. 🚀🚀🚀

To summarise your 5 question checklist before buying any Nigerian stock.

Is the company consistently profitable over 3 years?
Is revenue growing year on year?
Is the PE ratio reasonable relative to earnings?
Is it paying and growing dividends?
Is the sector it operates in growing?

Run every stock through these 5 questions before you commit a single naira. The answers are all publicly available on the NGX website for free.

@TomolaGroup Thank you. Learning from your tweets has been a rewarding experience for me in the stock market.

[NASA Artemis @NASAArtemis]

Approaching the near side of the Moon.

The Artemis II astronauts have surpassed the record for the distance from Earth at 1:56 ET (1756 UTC). This record was previously set during the Apollo 13 mission when the astronauts traveled 248,655 miles from Earth. The Moon continues to grow larger and larger in the windows of the Orion spacecraft as the Artemis II mission gears up to observe the far side. The astronauts are predicted to make their closest approach of the Moon around 7:02pm ET (2302 UTC).

@shadrachAkpem I was gonna say the same 😃. 10 million is only going to get you a thousand points of lay chicken. No feed, no housing, and other miscellaneous. It's a capital-intensive business for an average Nigerian.
