The @flipfloplaunch FlipFlop Coin Story: Flip. Flop. Survive. 💚💥
In the wild world of crypto, not every project survives the storm.
But FlipFlop Coin #FFFP isn’t your average token — it’s a movement built on resilience, creativity, and community power.
🧵 Let’s break it down 👇
When people ask me why I still believe in sports as a pathway for youth development, stories like this are part of my answer.
Somebody sent me the Zadok Yohanna story this morning and honestly, I had to read it twice.
Born in Bauchi. Moved to Kaduna on his own as a young boy to chase a football dream. Flew to Sweden less than a year ago. And today, at just 18 years old, Brighton have reportedly signed him for £21.5 million, beating some of the biggest clubs in world football to secure his signature.
Think about that for a moment.
A teenager from northern Nigeria, armed with little more than talent, discipline and determination, has forced his way into one of the most competitive talent markets on earth.
This is why I will always believe in investing in young people. Not because every child will become a professional footballer, but because talent exists everywhere in this country. What is often missing is opportunity, structure, support and belief.
My vision in establishing the Kwara Football Academy and @ABSIlorinFC was rooted in this same belief, and it has given opportunities to players like Dennis Emmanuel Bonaventure, Olusegun Oakunle, Benjamin Frederick, Mubarak Gata, David Okoromi and a host of others now plying their trade in both local and international clubs.
Nigerians are an extraordinarily talented people. That has never been in question. What stories like Zadok’s remind us is what can happen when talent meets opportunity.
I encourage the Nigeria Football Federation @thenff, the National Sports Commission @NatSportsComm, and the National Institute for Sports, to look into creating the enabling environment for more football academies aimed at discovering more talents like Zadok Yohanna, as the global searchlight beams on Nigeria as the football destination for Africa.
To every young person chasing a dream that seems impossible today: keep going. Your current circumstances do not have to define your future.
And to Zadok: Congratulations! The whole world can now see your talent, but this is only the beginning. Keep working, stay grounded, and never forget the journey that brought you here. As you said yourself, “I know where I came from.” Hold on to that mindset.
Talent has never been a difference between grassroots & professional, but that development is vital.
Asides adaptation, you need to learn systems, tactical set ups, when to run or pass, football intelligence entirely, then the pressure.
Listen to Mane.
@DezinDesign Dezin made me more focused on my design journey. My group coordinator (Mr Wisdom) is always checking up on me to make sure I am working and not falling behind.
Again, I learnt how to work with a team.
The actual influence they want is for Adeboye to stand up on the altar during the Holy Ghost Convention or congress and command all RCCG members to vote for a particular politician for presidency.
That will NEVER happen.

In 1972, Ebenezer Obey and his Inter Reformers band went on a tour abroad. Upon returning, they were hosted to a good time by Board Members, a Surulere based club. Next day, Obey and his band boys freestyled the song ‘Board Members’ which topped the charts for almost a year https://t.co/icHZzpq5JV
