I checked through the comment section of the quoted post and I couldn’t help but shrug and shake my head in shame for how very evidently the “Olodo Uprising” appears in every one of our conversations.
The poster asked, “Who is this boy?” The answers were, “na big boy o.” “Them say e guide.” “Omo, no be small boy o. Na big boy. E guide.” Everyone is fixated on his possession.
Kudos to 2-3 persons who had seen him and, at least, could identify that he does a decent job. Nearly all commenters cared less about what he does or what his name is. All they’re focused on is “the boy guide. Na big boy. I wan know the big boy.”
We have become too mentally attached to material possessions that we have reduced ourselves to mere money-worshipers. Only a few care more about craft and personality.
Anyways, for those who may care to know, the young man is Samson Akpan - an adult Nigerian who has built a tech career and a startup. Attached is his video.✍️
If you are working in a good company that rewards loyalty and has good staff remuneration stay there. This is coming from someone who has changed 5 jobs/roles in the last 9 years.
Go to school and get more certifications and degrees while at it.
