Everywhere I go, from petrol stations to spas and even parking attendants, I’m given a personal account number for payment. It’s only when I refuse that they suddenly provide the business account.
I wonder how business owners are surviving in Nigeria.
This transformation genuinely shocked me. 😳

Media Framing of Crime Along Ethnic Lines: Divisive.
As an Igbo man, I have endured stereotypes, judgment, and labelling solely based on my ethnic origins. This is not an isolated Igbo experience. Most Nigerians have, at some point, been reduced to their ethnicity rather than recognised for their true character.
I understand the pain of the ordinary Fulani man today, often unfairly judged by the actions of criminals he does not support, has never met, and who are not representative of his people.
Even in America, such unjust labelling fueled the civil rights movement and prompted Martin Luther King Jr. to declare that people should be judged by the content of their character, not the colour of their skin.
Every Nigerian ethnic group is known for its unique traditions, occupations, skills, and strengths. Crime, however, has no ethnicity. A thief is a thief. A terrorist is a terrorist. A kidnapper is a kidnapper. They are bad actors, not representatives of any people. They must be identified, arrested, and punished according to the law.
We must decisively abandon the dangerous practice of blaming entire ethnic groups for the actions of a few criminals. It is unjust, it breeds hatred, and it damages our national unity.
Let us proudly celebrate our diverse cultures, talents, and contributions, rather than falling prey to stereotypes and prejudices that politicians and divisive interests exploit for their gain.
A new Nigeria must emerge—one where no citizen is condemned because of tribe, religion, or birthplace. We can cherish our cultural roots while standing united by justice, mutual respect, and hope for a better future. We are capable of this.
A new Nigeria is within our reach. -PO
Not just 100 but 800!!! I have been screaming.
An ex course-mate referred me for a 2 days event, and they need 800 food packs for both days.
800 food packs in 2 days is a new milestone for my brand.
God thank you.😩🤲🏽
Obasanjo said in one interview that when he was President of Nigeria, he called the Northern elites and asked them about this Shariah issue. He asked, 'Why are you all insisting on Shariah when it’s not even like you’re using it yourselves?' And they told him it was just for politics. Can you imagine using poor people’s lives to play religious politics? I pity ona for Yorùbá land ooo.

That was the beginning and end of Nollywood as we know it.
These days it’s not just as deep and engaging as these guy of the golden era
The”Lekkinization” of Nollywood effectively whittled down its influence.
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.
There’s a scene in Breaking Bad where Walter White’s wife realizes he’s made $7.5 million and says:
“There’s no way we can wash this money through a car wash. No car wash in the world makes that kind of money in a year.”
That line hit me. Because it exposes a truth most people ignore: How much you earn is capped by the kind of business you run.
You can work harder, stay longer, even get smarter - but you’ll never make more than what your business model is designed to carry.
