I sat down and asked myself:
Seriously, are we about to make history on the 1st of July?
Could this be the beginning of a new chapter for our academic system?
There's a growing conversation around what many call the "Olodo uprising." Some link it to Yahoo culture, while others describe it as "Peller culture."
What if we could become part of the solution?
Not because one person can fix everything—no one can. But one person, one team, or one idea can make a meaningful difference.
It's almost 3 a.m., and I'm still working. Fixing things. Building and thinking.
Will this be the beginning of something people will remember?
Or will it become just another date that came and went?
I honestly don't know what the future holds.
But I do know this: I'm willing to give it everything I've got. I'm willing to go all the way, no matter what it takes.
No matter the obstacles.
No matter the setbacks.
I'll keep building.

I finally understood why companies hire marketers from the regions they're trying to sell to.
And honestly?
It's something nobody really talks about.
For the past few months, I've been working on marketing @goSpendCrypto.
The challenge?
Our biggest audience isn't in Nigeria.
It's in North America and Europe.
Which means every time I sit down to create a campaign, I have to do something difficult:
Stop thinking like an African marketer.
And start thinking like an American consumer.
Different habits.
Different conversations.
Different spending patterns.
Different culture.
The more I worked on campaigns, the more I realized something:
You can study a market.
But living inside that market gives you an advantage no report can replicate.
That's why companies often hire locally.
Those people don't just understand the audience.
They are the audience.
Last week, while brainstorming with my team, we stumbled on something interesting.
A trend hiding in plain sight.
The World Cup is drawing massive attention in North America.
Millions of conversations.
Millions of travelers.
Millions of purchases.
And suddenly a question came up:
How does a crypto product become useful in that moment?
That's when we connected the dots.
SpendCrypto allows users to spend crypto through gift cards.
And gift cards are deeply integrated into everyday spending across North America.
For tourists traveling for the World Cup, that creates an interesting opportunity:
Use crypto.
Convert to gift cards.
Spend more easily while traveling.
Simple.
The campaign launches today.
But beyond the campaign, this experience reminded me of something important:
Great marketing isn't about broadcasting messages.
It's about understanding people.
And sometimes the biggest breakthrough happens when you stop asking:
"How would I respond to this?"
And start asking:
"How would they?"
Have you ever had to market a product to an audience completely different from yourself?
What was the hardest part?
Three months ago, I wasn't planning to build an education startup.
The journey actually started with a conversation.
Not too long after Treasure lost her dad, I invited her over so we could talk. One thing I've always believed is that young people need guidance and support, especially during major transitions in life. So I wanted to check in on her, see how school was going, and understand what the next chapter looked like for her.
During our conversation, I asked a simple question:
"What challenges are students facing in school today?"
Her answer stayed with me.
She talked about how many students struggle to truly understand what is being taught in class. Not because they aren't intelligent or hardworking, but because the learning process itself often isn't designed to help them fully grasp concepts in a way that works for them.
The interesting thing is that this isn't a new problem.
Almost everyone who has gone through school has experienced it at some point. Yet, for years, it has remained largely unsolved. Many students continue to struggle, and some even begin to question the value of education altogether.
That conversation sparked something.
We began asking ourselves a simple question:
"What if we could build something that helps students learn better?"
At the time, Treasure deeply understood the problem because she was living it. I brought experience from building products and understanding how to turn ideas into solutions. Together with another amazing person, we started working.
The last three months have been filled with learning, building, testing, failing, improving, and building again.
Today, we're much closer to bringing that vision to life.
One lesson this journey has taught me is that some of the best ideas don't come from boardrooms or strategy sessions. Sometimes they come from simply listening to people, understanding their struggles, and caring enough to help solve them.
If there's anything I'd like someone reading this to take away, it's this:
Stay curious. Support people. Keep learning. And never ignore a problem just because it has existed for a long time.
Sometimes the next big solution begins with a simple conversation.
Keep Building...
Most people think growth comes from doing more.
After working across fintech and Web3, I have learned that growth often comes from removing friction.
Founders love adding features.
Users love simplicity.
The companies that win are usually not the ones doing the most; they are the ones making life easier for customers.
