I started @leonnoel 's #100devs training a while back, But it's been a really bumpy ride. I am keeping an accountability thread to help myself in check. This is the GitHub repository where I log my progress in detail, https://t.co/sXN98aEVgB. Give me a follow on GitHub
I said getting into General Science at Aquinas or Accra Academy with aggregate 10 is relatively easier than getting into PRESEC and some people are upset?
Forget banter, that’s actually the truth.
Stephen A. Smith was HEART-BROKEN after his daughter Samantha told him that she won’t let him live in her house when he’s older & she plans to put him in a Nursing Home instead 😭💔
“In my house?? With my kids? And my car? And my husband & my pool? In my guest room?”
“I’m just your Dad. The one that made it all possible.”
“I would love you from a distance Dad. You know I love you from a distance.” 🤣
I got a Director of Engineering offer in big tech earlier this year. Top 10 US big tech. I was stoked.
It got rescinded weeks to my start date. I was devastated for months. I kept wondering why I would get the offer only to get rescinded and I started wishing they had just rejected my application.
But now I know why I got it. I got it to prove to myself that indeed, I am at that level, and I am making impact at that scale (because my impostor syndrome is terrible. I am literally always scared 😂😭)
Fast forward to today, I’m about to start adding so much value in my current role and I feel peace, purpose, and excitement.
A lot of times, that rejection (no matter the form it comes in) is redirection 💕💕
@samgeorgegh Ah, this is not a me against you matter here oo. We are building a great nation, not macho and performative vigorisma here, sin cera. If there are people trying to burn or pull others down here, it is for us to see and call them out. Mr Minister, please, this is not a victory lap
@koboateng He's the guy who was supposed to answer to the procurement of patrol vehicles for the 2024 elections government paid for, never got for the purpose. He's being moved around and left without accountability because he fits someone's purpose. Nothings changed.
I got admitted into every school on this list with over $1 million in total scholarships (Masters & PhD)…
People often ask about my personal statements.
So here is a link to my original my personal statement (word for word)
What made the difference in my application is the statement of purpose……
→ Not the fancy formatting.
→ Not a perfect GPA.

The idea isn’t for you to copy it word for word.
Your story is different from mine.
But the structure, flow, and key elements of a compelling personal statement?
Those are timeless.

September 2021 — we were told we couldn’t have children.
December 2022 — I asked her to be my wife.
September 2023 — we got married, on the same day she lost her mother 13 years earlier.
After 6 heartbreaking miscarriages over the years, in 2025 we became pregnant again.
Through every challenge, every loss, and every tear, our journey is a testimony of resilience, faith, and hope.
God is the greatest ❤️✨
I am willing to refund Mbappe's ticket to Saudi. Tell him to send the invoice. Best bit of money I am going to spend this week.

@kwekutech The minister's post doesn't make it a fulfilled political promise or achievement. Maybe we'll only wait for the bloggers to post about it before we also highlight it.
@kwekutech This announcement may be superfluous, and there are people who will see this opportunity through it. As to the ministry's engagements with Google, I have no idea what goes. Google's offer is going to make a great resource accessible to great Ghanaians, and more.
