[The Big Bird🦅⚽️ @c_mobike]

The way a lot of boys and so many people have normalized ‘yahoo’ as hustle and always looking for update is the same way they’re now normalizing the hookup thing and also always looking out for updates/paroles.
That a lot of boys and their families are feeding today is because of yahoo

That a lot of girls are feeding today is from selling their bodies.

If our society normalize and praise yahoo boys, let it extend the energy to the other side!

We don’t know how cooked we are!!

You can't dream beyond your level of exposure, that's what travelling and reading more gives you.

Scene 1.
A new finance staff resumes at a record label.

She opens the books.
Scrolls. Stops. Scrolls back again.

“What exactly is going on here?”

First week on the job.
Scene Background

Finance has received an email requesting for 60m for tiktok influencers. She is stunned at the request Vs the ROI. She proceeds to respond to the email with the new financial system she put in place. She decides to call a meeting to explain this.

Finance: I need the invoice for that promo payment.
Plugger: We don’t do invoices in this industry, who be this JJC. Abeg make una no waste my time. Do you know who i am?
Finance: Then I cannot release the money.
Plugger: 😂😂😂, na so una go spoil the life of the artise.

Finance is confused.
Because in every normal business, if money is going out, there should be paperwork.
But in music, people will look at you like you are the problem for asking for proof.

Then the artist hears about it.

Artist: So the label is holding my promo money? What kind of useless label is this? You know how this industry works. Nobody does invoice. Una wan frustrate my life.

Artiste mops around and threatens social media outburst. Label ignores the finance staff and releases the money to keep the artist happy.
No invoice. No receipt. No trail.
Just vibes to keep the artiste happy and bad governance.

Finance girl is sitting there quietly like:

So all of you want to go to jail together? I am not one of them. She resigns.

Fast forward.

Relationship breaks down.
Artist sues label.
Everybody now wears suit.
Everybody now speaks grammar.
Everybody now remembers the law.

Courtroom scene.

Lawyer: You said you spent ₦300 million on promotion?
Label owner: Yes. We promoted heavily.
Lawyer: Great. Show the court the documents.
Silence.

Label owner: The artist knew the plugger. He introduced him to us. He said he wanted 40 tiktokers and thats what will blow the song.
Lawyer: I asked for the invoice.
Label owner: He approved the campaign.
Lawyer: I asked for proof of payment and supporting documents.
Label owner: Everybody in the industry knows how these things work.
Lawyer: Court does not run on “everybody knows.”

Camera cuts to the artist.

He is seated like he has never heard the word plugger in his life. He denies approving anything; he is stone cold poker face.

And just like that, we spend another 3 years arguing to prove ₦300 million. Not because it was not spent.
But because it could not be proved

If you run a label, behave like a business.
If you manage an artist, behave like a business.
If money leaves your account, there must be paper behind it.

Every single time.

Hire a proper finance and legal person.

Because the industry runs on trust until the relationship breaks down.
Then it runs to court.

And when it gets to court, nobody will be arguing with tweets, friendship, phone calls, or “he was there" or "he is my brother."

Bring your documents or prepare for embarrassment.

Fuel is 1330? There’s nothing the government can do to cushion the global energy crisis for its citizens?

[Tseye @Tseye__]

What percentage of the population are currently employed or earning enough to afford legal services. The answer will show a more accurate ratio.

[legalnaija @LegalNaija]

Did you know Nigeria has roughly 197,000–250,000 lawyers for a population exceeding 200 million.

That is roughly one lawyer for every 800–1,015 citizens, depending on the estimate of active lawyers.

Your friend who is a lawyer is not your lawyer until you pay fees.

@MTN180 @MTNNG I’ll reply in your DM

[Tseye @Tseye__]

@MTNNG it’s been about 3 weeks now that I paid for the fibre X. Till date no one has called me for installation. This is very poor from you guys. Install what I’ve paid for or refund my money.

[FESTUS OGUN @mrfestusogun]

Please, try to settle your disputes out of court, if you can.

[Tseye @Tseye__]

Paid over two weeks ago. No one has contacted me for installation till date. A very frustrating experience so far.

[Dr. Toks 🦇 @fimiletoks]

Update on my @MTNNG Fibre X issue.
Several people from MTN reached out to me the same day and remained in touch till the issue was resolved - The Customer Management manager, GM Fibre X, and the Head of Public Relations. I must have received over 20 calls from them.

The technical team arrived at my house at 7.30am the next day to fix the issue. Madam Omotola was quite helpful. She also paid me a visit to give me some gifts.

I am good now. FibreX is working perfectly.

[Tseye @Tseye__]

Fr, the song is a bit nostalgic and is just too smooth. Lyrics? Very relatable. Your catalog is a go to anytime I’m driving.

These illnesses will teach you that there’s a difference between rich and being wealthy. The money you have that makes you think you’re rich can vanish in one year and it’s just you paying to extend your life or that of a family member. Money becomes everything and nothing.

[Ayo dapson @daddydapo]

I watched TG Omori’s interview with Odira and I didn’t even realize when the tears started falling. When he spoke about how kidney failure drained him financially, how money lost its value because every single naira went into staying alive, it hit too close to home. How long can money really carry you when sickness enters the picture?

I remember when my sister’s sickness started. For almost a year, we were treating the wrong thing. Juvenile lupus, they said. It wasn’t until much later we found out it was leukemia. By the time we crossed ₦30 million at LASUTH, still treating lupus, it stopped making sense to calculate expenses anymore. That was already the early stage of leukemia.

I would go all the way to LUTH to get platelets for ₦52,000 each. Not one, sometimes six in a day. And this went on every day for about three weeks. The painful part? That same platelet costs ₦7,000 at LASUTH, but it was never available. Add chemotherapy, hospital admissions, tests, drugs… it never ends.

Starting this GoFundMe was one of the hardest things we’ve ever had to do. Nobody wants to be known this way. Nobody wants to ask. But illness humbles you. It strips you of pride. Every day, I asked myself: what if we couldn’t start treatment on time? I watched children in the same ward die not because there was no cure, but because there was no money. It felt like waiting for our turn. A turn that never came, and by God’s grace, will never come.

You think life is easy until it isn’t.

This is our reality.
And we are holding on to faith and to the kindness of others.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for caring. Thank you for helping us fight. 🤍
