If you have a 9-5 where you’re earning steady 400k and above this isn’t the time to start exploring your entrepreneurial journey. Please just focus on what you have.

Let's talk about the Zenith Bank story going around.
There's a lot of fear, but not enough facts. Here's exactly what happened, and more importantly, what it means for YOU as a customer.
Zenith Bank confirmed some customer contact details - emails and phone numbers - were accessed without authorization. That's the full scope. But here's the part everyone's skipping past...
NO money was touched. NO account numbers. NO passwords. NO PINs. Not one naira moved. This wasn't a breach of your funds - it was exposure of contact info, and that distinction matters a lot. Let me explain why.
This wasn't even a "Zenith-only" problem. The bank says it's linked to a bigger, global cyber-attack hitting multiple organizations right now. Nigeria's CAC, Sterling Bank, and Remita have all faced similar incidents this year. This is an industry-wide storm.
Zenith's Reaction:
The moment they discovered it, they activated incident response protocols, brought in cybersecurity measures, and kept every digital channel running. Your app, your ATM, your transfers, all working normally throughout.
Here's the only real risk now:
Scammers using this news to impersonate Zenith. If anyone calls or texts you, asking for your PIN, password, or OTP "to verify your account" - that is not the bank, that is a criminal. Zenith will NEVER ask for that.
Bottom line:
Your money is safe. Your login details are safe. The bank responded fast and has been transparent. Stay alert, ignore suspicious messages, and don't let panic do what the hackers couldn't.
Retweet this thread because someone on your timeline is panicking right now over something that didn't even touch their money. Let's calm the fear with facts. 🙏
“Apart from that, what else do you do?”
Nigerians have been conditioned to think you must be doing multiple things to make money. You tell somebody what you’re doing and they ask “apart from that, what else do you do?”
You people don’t know how to sleep or relax? There are people with multiple jobs whose total income is not up to N400k monthly. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not blaming you. I just hate what Nigeria does to us as a people. It is really not fair.
People are doing care job alone and they comfortably pay their bills. In Nigeria, Lawyers and Doctors are being told to learn a skill. Learn what skill again? Engineers are learning other skills just to add another N200k to their salary. It is not fair ooo
@QueenUjunwa1 Always take care of your health and looks. Dress nicely, smell nice, do your hair, and look good. One important thing: don’t lose yourself because you are in love. Put yourself first 💯
A slightly long read, but I implore your patience 🙏🏽
On this day, 3years ago, the lives of millions of Nigerians changed from bad to worse.
We lost counts of the death toll.
Many lost their source of livelihood from international companies leaving, to personal businesses folding due to alarming cost of operations and meager patronage.
Some families have been left forever traumatized from losing loved ones to kidnappers, and terrorists, even after selling everything they owned to pay ransom.
Education is at its lowest, as tuition tripled with deceit of the NELFUND loan shark of a government.
Electricity became an opportunity for classism, with fraudulent different bands. It became both unavailable and unaffordable.
‘Epileptic’ suddenly became less a word to describe our national grid.
Without proper prior preparations and notice, cost per litre of petrol spiked from N198/L to N500/L, and N1350/L today.
I know this stoic government are banking on our usual amnesia on Election Day in January, 2027, but please while considering your stomach, think of your children and grandchildren.
What will be left of Nigeria if we continue like this???
