If your brother sins against you, go and speak to him privately about his fault. If he listens to you, you have won your brother back. But if he refuses to listen, then regard him as you would a heathen or a tax collector.
@TrendingEx The High-Altitude Delusion: Why Tosinβs "Platform" Speech Ignores the Ground He Built On.
The "Bright" Paradox & Technical Hypocrisy
The Claim: Nigerians lack "seniority" and "brightness," preferring "yahoo/hookup" over mastery.
@instablog9ja Tosin says Nigerians "aren't bright" and "lack senior talent," yet Moniepoint was built on the backs of the same Nigerian engineers he's now shaming at #ThePlatform. You can't use us to build a Unicorn and then call us "unemployable" to justify your new π§΅
@instablog9ja The Wage Gap: Demand to know if he pays his Nigerian staff the same $USD$ equivalent he pays his expatriate consultants. Spoiler: He likely doesn't.

@instablog9ja The Yahoo/Hookup ScapegoatHe blames "Yahoo and Hookup culture" for the lack of talent. No, Tosin. Systemic failure is the cause. When the "legitimate" path pays $N150k$ ($100) and rent is $N1.5m$, survival isn't a "lack of discipline," it's math. You can't criticize the "hustle"
@instablog9ja The Hiring Hypocrisy
Proof is on the timeline: While preaching about "developing human capital," Moniepoint's DreamDevs 2026 only took 20 people for a country of 200 million. 20 slots isn't "building the nation"; it's a PR stunt. If Nigerians are "not bright,
