My sister Maya and I were profoundly shaped by the influence of our mom, Ann Dunham. Giving Maya a preview of the Obama Presidential Center, including a new sculpture by Maya Lin dedicated to our mom’s memory, was truly special.

Since YCee has awakened Nigerians to the “Olodo uprising” debate, here’s a report on how the big tech giants weaponize their algorithms to dumb down the Nigerian/African population.
It’s my favorite report for the @Spearhead_Af from last year, but evergreen. Make sure you follow the @Spearhead_Af for more of this every single day.
“I know how Nigerian audience can be.
They keep asking, ‘Where is Runtown? Where is Maleek Berry?’ but when these artists finally drop new projects, the same people rarely show up with support.”

"Nigerian society is no longer celebrating academic excellence. It’s not even Yahøø culture anymore; now we have a 'Peller culture.' This 'Olodo' uprising we are witnessing is terrible. It feels like we are trying so hard to accommodate ignorance so people won’t feel bad, and now they seem to be the majority. The massive att@ck on Nigeria’s educational system is alarming, aside from kidn@ppings and Bøko Haram att@cks."

I hate it when Smart people play this game. Ugodre and all these guys are going to support BAT. They have not question BAT’s inability to raise Power Distribution but they are discussing Obi does not have any Power. I dislike this Intellectual Dishonesty. It is annoying

🇺🇸🌍 Trump claims the world loves him (🧵), but he’s skipping #FIFAWorldCup games because attendees from Australia, New Zealand, UK and more keep chanting about Trump and the Epstein Files. Take a listen!👇
What an embarrassment! Let’s get him out! #DemsAbroad

These guys are grifters! I don't need anybody to tell me that they are APC-mongers. Hoping PO will tell us about electricity when the guys in power had nothing to say since the days of the 2023 campaign season.
No other candidate laid out his manifesto to Nigerians except Obi.
Politics or vibes? The team reacts to Rufai’s interview with Obi, questioning whether promises like 10,000–20,000MW of power are backed by substance or just popularity.
With Nigerians still waiting for clear economic plans, the conversation highlights the struggle to find leaders offering sound, practical solutions beyond tribal, religious, or partisan lines.
