I hosted a US billionaire in Lagos… and I didn’t even know it would actually happen.

In 2019, Jack Dorsey tweeted he was coming to Africa — and Nigeria was on the list.

By the Way, Jack Dorsey was the co-founder and CEO of X, formerly Twitter. He is currently worth $6.3 Billion.

The moment I saw that tweet, I told my team: we have to host him.”

No invite. No connection. Just belief.

I started reaching out to anyone I knew at Twitter.
Eventually, one person replied: ‘I’ll check who’s handling the trip.

Days later… silence.
Then suddenly, I get introduced to his Chief of Staff.
And everything started moving fast.

Next thing: background checks.
The security team shows up in our office 2 days before for inspection.
At that point, it became real.”

Then boom,
Jack Dorsey and his leadership team are sitting in my office in Lagos.”

That one visit changed everything for us,
It turned our office into a global stop for international leaders.”

But here’s the craziest part…
There was no special access.
No guaranteed outcome.
We just decided it was possible — and moved.

So next time you’re doubting yourself…
Try first.
You don’t need permission to go for big opportunities.

Join me on the 13th of June at Battersea Park in London for March for Men ❤️

I’ll be taking on the 10km walk, marching past some of London’s most iconic landmarks and I’d love for you to be part of it.

1 in 8 men will get prostate cancer in their lifetime. For Black men, the risk is even higher and it doubles.

This is more than just a walk; it’s about raising awareness, supporting research, and saving lives.

Let’s stand together. Let’s walk with purpose.

Let’s do it for prostate cancer.

@Kendoki080330 @nigimmigration @nigimmigration be that one less frustration - please

[PatriQ.tf @PatrickOkwute]

Hi @nigimmigration - this is a formal complaint regarding the contactless passport renewal process.

I paid the extra non-refundable fee for the contactless option to avoid the travel and hassle of going to London. After struggling to get the app to work on 3 different phones, it finally worked only to say it couldn't verify my fingerprints.
Now, I’m being told I have to come to the embassy anyway, but the nearest appointment isn't until OCTOBER.
I’ve paid a premium for a digital service that failed, and now I'm stuck with a 5-month wait. I shouldn't be penalized for a system glitch. Please look into this.

@nilladx @nigimmigration It's hard to believe we have to live with these standards Honourable Minister, @BTOofficial this can't be it.
@nigimmigration this cannot be the acceptable standard.

@asemota Weak ties

[PatriQ.tf @PatrickOkwute]

@iykecharles316 What in heavens name is this rubbish! Now it’s telling me it cannot continue that I have to go to London. Meanwhile I have paid the extra fee for contactless and now available dates till October! Why is everything in Nigeria out to frustrate you

[PatriQ.tf @PatrickOkwute]

Hi, anyone had any experience with renewing their passport with the Nigerian Immigration App? I have never been this frustrated in my entire life 🤦🏾‍♂️
