Ambitious people are my type. I can’t even hide it, once you start talking about doing impossible work, the kind of talk that inspires greatness, you have my allegiance till the wheels fall off.
We may fail (woefully) but we will never be guilty of not trying.
We can't keep waiting for the world to bring industrial automation to Nigeria. We have to start building it ourselves.
After 300+ hours of non-stop fabrication, spending more than 5kg in material, and gathering hundreds of individual components, this is the foundation of a 6-axis robotic arm built entirely from scratch.
They say hardware is hard. Doing it here is even harder. But holding the pieces of what this could become is a feeling I can't quite describe. Let's see if all the math was right. Assembly begins tomorrow.
To all young Nigerians,
It’s high time we take full responsibility for our future, especially after what happened today in the NASS chamber.
One of our biggest silent problems is extreme individualism wrapped in survival mode.
That “As long as I chop today, I’m good” mindset has trapped us and stopped us from moving forward.
“The easiest way to destroy a nation is to first destroy the mindset of its young people.”
Give many people N5,000 right now and watch, instant smile, funny WhatsApp status, buy garri and soup for two days, drink one or two bottles, then sleep like tomorrow doesn’t exist.
Their plate is full for 48 hours, the country’s plate can stay empty forever, who cares?
This mentality is everywhere, and it’s slowly destroying us. Small stipends, quick cash or temporary benefits silence voices that should demand long-term development.
The real issue isn’t just poverty, it’s a system that makes survival so urgent that people can’t think beyond today.
When citizens are divided and focused only on personal gain, real change becomes almost impossible.
Politicians loot trillions, yet some supporters defend them to death because “he dashed me N3,000 and a bag of rice during campaign season, so he’s my guy.”
It’s survival instinct gone toxic. We hustle like lions individually, but act like crabs in a bucket when it comes to collective progress, dragging each other down so nobody escapes.
The painful truth, Nigeria cannot rise far if the dominant question remains “wetin I go gain right now?” instead of “how can we all eat better tomorrow?”
We celebrate solo wins while the nation bleeds. We laugh at national failure videos, share them for clout, but never connect the dots that our individual “I don’t care” attitude is part of the problem.
Real change cannot come from one hero president, one honest governor or senator alone. It must start inside us, rejecting the “chop alone in the dark” philosophy.
We should ask ourselves:
Are we thinking beyond immediate survival?
Are we choosing long-term development over short-term incentives?
Are we building a nation or just trying to escape it individually?
Nigeria will only move forward when we stop asking for “my share” and begin demanding systems that work for everyone.

July 2023. I had just finished uni. I was broke broke. I had a plan but I couldn't afford it. I was scared of begging people for money, because I felt nobody was going to believe how hard it is to survive in Nigeria without knowing anyone. Calling people and they already know I'm coming to beg for money 💔😩, I was just there. Confused. Devastated and Hungry.
Finally picked a skill and decided to settle for it but now I need data and food to survive, cuz my parents ain't rich.
So I tweeted something random on my other X account:
“Unlimited data, steady power supply, and good rice and stew is all I need right now.”
Because that day I was so hungry.
A stranger lady slid into my DMs. She asked if I was okay. She bought me data, and food
Not long after that, my laptop started failing completely. And out of nowhere, this same stranger sent me almost half a million money to buy a laptop, I cried.
I was scared it didn't feel real I hadn't met her before.
That laptop changed my life. I locked in like a mad dog.
That same laptop helped me go from #700 naira total to crossing over $15,000 after 2 years of knowing her and I have also bought others laptop too lovely you know.
That same laptop helped me learn skills and made my first million and also teach other people how to make their first million naira, and built this account from zero to almost 60k followers,
There were times she needed my help too, and I showed up. Because real support goes both ways. Till today, it still feels unreal.
A random tweet.
A stranger help.
A laptop, data.
A life reset.
I still haven't met her before.
She is the reason this account exists..
Nothing can change in Nigeria if we as citizens don’t change. We are selfish, greedy and tribalistic. We don’t want freedom. We want to be the oppressors and that’s why every leader than takes power thinks it’s their turn to oppress the citizens for their financial gain.
