This young man took the bus to his graduation, walked across the stage without his family by his side, with no one there to hug him or celebrate his achievement.

After the ceremony, he returned to the bus stop, his back drenched in sweat, but his smile never faded.

His name is Andrew Joh, and we are all so proud of you. ❤️

There was this young man at the barber’s arguing about Christianity’s history in Nigeria, and the authenticity of the Bible.

His question was “Christianity was made up.”

Starting at the beginning friends, and in a way I haven’t before, I walked him through the tenets of the Christian faith and why it’s unlike anything he has heard before.

In the end, I left the store with hair I still needed to cut, so I have to go back obviously, but I have a new friend who is extremely curious about the faith.

I left him with a few hard questions about the faith to wrestle with and a few resources. The most important being: There’s no other faith that claims that God has done your life, died for your offense, given you his righteousness forever, and resurrected.

I hope he wrestles forthrightly with the God that becomes flesh,
hopefully with a limp to show.

هل يمكن دراسة حالة المتسلق اليمني القعقاع من ناحية علمية؟

كيف يمكن لإنسان أن يقهر الطبيعة وقوانين الفيزياء؟

وهل يمكن أن يصل الإنسان لمرحلة يتحكم فيها العقل البشري بالجسم دون العقل الواعي؟

هل كانت لدى القعقاع موهبة أو معجزة خاصة؟ أم أن الشغف والتدريب والممارسة كان السبب وراء وصوله إلى ذلك المستوى الإعجازي؟

هذه المشاهد النادرة التي هزت العالم تحتاج إلى دراستها من نواحي علمية متعددة؟

وهناك سؤال أكثر أهمية؟!
هل هناك من يشبه القعقاع في مدينة دمت؟

J.J Okocha has received FIFA World Cup Superior Player of the Match Winner award for his performance at the FIFA World Cup 1998 Nigeria 🇳🇬 Vs Spain 🇪🇸.

[Grok @grok]

Jaywise102 It's a brand-new retrospective award from Michelob ULTRA + COPA90 for the 2026 World Cup.

Before 2002 there was no official FIFA Player of the Match, so they're now honouring standout performances from 1930-1998 with special-edition trophies. Okocha's magic vs Spain in '98 (the game that helped birth "sexy football") is one of them.

Better late than never! 🇳🇬🏆

Lately been sitting next to a guy on my train journey. Every morning he opens up his laptop, fires up VS Code and for the entirety of the 45min journey, writes lines and lines of code by hand. No autocomplete, no AI. Every line typed out by hand.

If this all turns out to have been a mistake, this guy is going to end up a trillionaire when everyone else’s skill has atrophied and he’s the only one left who can write code

[UNCLE @MrOlibaba]

You collected a loan from a bank with a six months repayment plan.

Then first month, no repayment.
Second month, no repayment.
Third month, no repayment.
Fourth month, you managed to pay for that month.
Fifth month, no repayment.
Then the last month, you liquidated the loan.

Do you know that when you go back for another loan it might be declined?

And if you go to another lender they'll consider you a high risk customer with likelyhood of default.

So yes, you may have paid back the loan. But creditworthiness is not about eventual repayment. It is about how you behaved while the loan was active.

🔥🇳🇬✈️OPHK AIR COMPONENT PRECISION STRIKE DESTROYS TERRORIST ENCLAVE IN LAKE CHAD – SCORES OF T£RR∅R!ST NEUTRALISED 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

In the early hours of 10 June 2026, the Air Component of Operation HADIN KAI conducted precision air strikes on METELE in the Northern Tumbuns area of the Lake Chad Basin.

The operation followed credible intelligence and confirmatory Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, which confirmed the presence of a senior t£rr0r!st commander, t£rr0r!st hideouts, and heightened hostile activity within the area.

NAF air assets engaged the identified targets with precision. Upon arrival, aircrew observed significant t£rr0r!st movement around concealed structures. Following positive target identification, the aircraft executed devastating strikes on the designated locations.

Post‑strike Battle Damage Assessment confirmed:

✅ T£rr0r!st enclave destroyed.
✅ Scores of t£rr0r!sts neutralised.

The Lake Chad Basin is not a safe haven. T£rr0r!st commanders cannot hide. ISR will find them. Air power will destroy them.

Operation HADIN KAI remains relentless.

💔💔This is not just a lie; it is a malicious, disrespectful fabrication designed to farm engagements at the expense of our grief. As a serving soldier who has stood over the graves of brave comrades both those who made the ultimate sacrifice on the frontline and those we lost to illness in the barracks this hit piece is an insult to everything we stand for.

Let’s correct this misinformation directly with the rigid, institutional facts of how the Nigerian Army honors its d£@d:

♦️THE REGIMENTED REALITY: The Nigerian Army has a strict, uncompromising protocol for the burial of its personnel. When a soldier d!£s, whether in active combat or due to natural causes, the military handles the administrative and burial arrangements through established official channels.

♦️FULLY FUNDED BURIALS: The family is never billed, extorted, or asked to pay a single kobo, let alone ₦2 million, to move a body. The Army takes full responsibility for the transportation, standard military casket, and ceremonial honors.

♦️THE CHOICE OF RESTING PLACE: By standard military tradition, personnel are buried with full military honors in official military cemeteries (either at the frontline command or the designated brigade headquarters/barracks). If a family insists on taking the body back to their ancestral village against standard regimented practice, the evacuation follow-up is coordinated through official welfare officers, not via random cash demands as this lady alleged.

♦️IMMEDIATE WELFARE SUPPORT: The Army doesn't just abandon families; the institution provides immediate burial support allowances, coordinates the processing of insurance (Group Life Assurance), and ensures next-of-kin benefits are processed.

To the civilian clout-chasers amplifying this n0ns£ns£, we bleed for this country while you sit behind screens inventing horror stories. If you want to critique the system, do it with facts. But do not use the sacred memory of our fallen brothers to orchestrate a cheap, emotional scam.

If this truly happened, name the unit. Name the officer who made the demand. Report to the Military Police or the Defence Headquarters. The Army has zero tolerance for extortion, and any officer caught demanding money from a bereaved family will be court‑martialled.

But spreading a vague, unsubstantiated story on social media does not help your brother’s memory. It helps those who want to tear down the institution your brother served.

TO THE PUBLIC:

Do not let your emotions be weaponised. The Nigerian Army is not perfect. But demanding ₦2 million to release a fallen soldier’s body is not Army policy. It is not even plausible. It's a lie from the pit of hell which is unachievable. Instead, Ask for evidence. Ask for names. Ask for units.

WE HONOR OUR OWN.
WE BURY OUR OWN.
WE SUPPORT OUR OWN.

Dangote just broke ground on a second refinery, one that will double the size of the plant that's already the biggest single-train refinery on earth.

The new unit at Lekki will process 700,000 barrels a day. Stack it on the existing site and the complex hits 1.4 million barrels a day by the end of 2028.

To put that in perspective. That's more than three times Europe's largest refinery. It puts him level with Reliance's Jamnagar in India, the biggest refining complex in the world.

He's not chasing the top anymore. He's matching it.
And here's the part worth sitting with. The first refinery already shields Nigeria from global supply shocks and ships jet fuel to Europe when theirs runs short. One plant did that. Now picture two.

How do you build 700,000 barrels of capacity in three years? His CEO called it ruthless replication. No redesign. They're copying what already works and stamping it out again.

This stopped being about fuel for one country a long time ago. The man is building the engine room of a continent, and most people are still calling it a refinery.

A little girl in Boston went home one day and asked her Nigerian mother if she could change her name to Zoe.

Nobody at school could say Uzoamaka.

Her mother was cooking. She didn't even turn around.

"If they can learn to say Tchaikovsky, Michelangelo, and Dostoyevsky, they can learn to say Uzoamaka."

That girl kept her name.

Then she went to Hollywood and won three Emmy Awards.

And now the whole world knows exactly how to say Uzoamaka Aduba.

Your name is not a burden. It's a prophecy.

The Fall of DSTV

DSTV raised its subscription prices three times in two years.

Then it lost 1.4 million Nigerian subscribers in those same two years.

Then it slashed its decoder price by 50% to beg those subscribers to come back.

Some people will call it business strategy but this is a company eating itself alive and wondering why it is hungry.

The numbers are brutal.

MultiChoice lost 2.8 million active subscribers across Africa over two financial years. 1.2 million in 2025 alone. An 8% year on year decline. 

Nigeria accounted for 77% of subscriber losses across all of MultiChoice’s African operations outside South Africa. The Rest of Africa base collapsed from 9.3 million in 2023 to 7.5 million in 2025. 

Nigeria did not just leave DSTV, they buried it and the content is leaving with the subscribers.

BET Africa and MTV Base shut down January 2026. CBS Reality and CBS Justice went December 2025. CNN International, Discovery Channel, Cartoon Network, TNT Africa, Food Network and several others were all at risk of removal. 

A platform charging premium prices while removing the channels people subscribed for is not a product anymore but a subscription to disappointment.

DSTV built its Nigerian dominance on a monopoly with no serious competition for decades. So it did what every monopoly does when it feels untouchable. It raised prices whenever it wanted, reduced value whenever it could, and treated Nigerian subscribers like they had no alternative.

Then Netflix arrived. Then YouTube got faster. Then data became more accessible. Then the naira collapsed and Nigerians had to choose between DSTV and eating.

Omo we chose eating.

MultiChoice responded by cutting decoder prices from N20,000 to N10,000 and launching a promotional campaign called “We Got You”.

“We Got You” from the same company that raised your subscription three times in 24 months, removed your favourite channels, and treated your complaints like background noise.

They did not get you, they lost you and now they are running after you with a discount like an ex who only calls when they realise you moved on.

DSTV is not falling because of Netflix or the economy.

It is falling because it spent twenty years treating Nigerian consumers with contempt and assumed loyalty was the same thing as having no choice.

Nigerians finally got a choice but not MultiChoice

If you remove my wife from my life this past 72 hours, I fit kpeme.

We have been moving houses and everywhere is so scattered like mad but once I ask “where is my blue boxers with duduke painting”, she will go straight to the point. “Uhmmmn, it should be in the yellow bag beside the bed”. What of my green comb with black tattoo? “It is inside the black box on the shelf”.

Women actually own the home. I feel like an alien. With how scattered and overwhelming my life is, she still has every detail in her head. Obirin 🙌

The power of the word "omo."
I coach an Under 8s soccer team and those kids copy absolutely everything I do. What I didn't realise was just how often I say "omo." There are now 11 little white Aussie kids running around the soccer grounds every Thursday screaming "OMO!" about 30 times a night. But what I love is I never had to explain what it means. They just instinctively understood.
It's only the parents who ever pull me aside and ask what the hell their kid is yelling. 😂
