I think its Yahoo boys that's making some of you clowns
You are a security man
You see me 10 times, you beg and hail me 10 times
You sell shoes 85k I can get on Temu for 50k with free delivery
You open a restaurant and use plastic takeaway to sell one plate of Egusi soup for 18k.
Just because Yahoo boys are tipping you everytime you hail them or because Yahoo boys are buying 5$ Chinese sneakers for 85k or because Yahoo boys mostly do not have taste and will accept 18k soup in a black SUP plastic takeaway
That does not mean we are all Yahoo boys
I am not giving you shishi unless you earn it. If you like hail me 1 million times
I will buy my cheap Chinese shoes on Temu and I will not accept an SUP for an 18k soup
Someone wanted to test his app features by giving users $5 to test out.
He got angry that people started withdrawing the $5 from the app.
Is withdrawal not part of the app's features?

Costco is a super market that charges a membership fee for you to shop there.
It has nearly 150 million members who pay a total of almost $5bn in fees. This covers costco operating costs before they have sold a single product.
They have a 90% renewal rate meaning people are more loyal to their costco membership than they are to their banks or cable TV subs.
Burkina Faso Introduces Mandatory Foreign Study Approval Rules, Pushes All Students, Including Children of the Rich, to Prioritise Local Education https://t.co/ycrKwXiHPk
Just outrightly ban public servants, elected leaders and police and military personnel from having their children study abroad (outside the borders of the country), from seeking their medical health abroad and also from investing, stashing or outsourcing their commercial life outside the borders while they are actively serving in their roles! If you do not like our laws, please resign from your role and go live your life however you want it. Leave the people who truly see their long term future to lead out institutions and build the country.
One of the worst tragedies we have to deal with as Africa since the so called 'independence' is being led by an elite that doesn't truly believe in Africa catching up with the world. That why they continue to treat it simply as an extraction zone (wealth source) but anchor their lives and that of their families in the West and the Gulf.
If we are to develop Africa, we must force the elite to have a skin in game! Their lives must be legally tied in either the wellbeing or the failures of their decisions. If a political elite knows their children will study in the local university, then they will invest in the best facility and education system. They will invest in the best healthcare if they know their health and that of their family depends on the country's health system.
We must pass laws that finally emancipate Africa from Western validation seeking tendesies and truly build Africa. That is how Europe did it. America. South Korea. Singapore. China and now Vietnam. A country's elite must have a skin in the game to invest in it and develop it! It's time for Africa too 🌍 ❤️.
Things are happening in this Lagos o and it’s unfair to law abiding citizens. If you don’t mix with people, you won’t hear things.
Between Ketu and Mile 12, these boys snatch phones inside traffic. They jump to snatch phones inside BRT. They pickpocket at Mile 12 and Ketu. If you try to hustle bus to Ikorodu thinking you are struggling with fellow passengers, phones ti lor.
Some days ago, two women were pickpocketed at Mile 12 losing 3 phones while rushing bus. Two iPhone 12 pro and one 13 pro max. They didn’t even know until one was looking for hers and told the other to switch on her phone torch for her 😭😭
Thank God, they got to the area and the tracking started. Someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone helped them to enter Mile 12 deepest home of bad boys. They paid 20 for connection and they were to pay 50k each on the phones if they can find it.
This is no joke, over 50 phones were brought out. Over 50 iPhones and theirs were not even there. The bad guys had to agree that it’s another sect that carried out the operation and their phones should already be in Mushin. They had to reach out to the buyer from Mushin who tried but from the many phones with him, none belonged to them. He already told them he will only release each phone at 100k. Certainly, the phones were in the hands of another sect.
The crime ring is very deep. These boys have buyers who will sell the phones in pieces. While they were still inside the lungu, boys came in with iPhone 13 and 15 pro max that they just snatched. Another victim 😭.
These boys are everywhere. Mushin, Ikorodu Garage, Mile 12, Ketu, Mile 2, Alakija, Oshodi, everywhere but they have standby buyers.
We don’t have government who will help us. They do all these in front of Mile 12 police station and nobody will do anything.
Be security conscious because you have no one. Hold your phone in your hand when you struggle for bus. 🙏🙏
Relativity is the idea that our perceptions and judgments are not absolute but are shaped by our unique vantage points and frames of reference. It’s the understanding that our experiences are subjective.
We each inhabit a particular web of experiences. This context shapes how we see the world, what we notice and overlook, and what we value and dismiss. Two people can look at the same event and come away with vastly different interpretations based on their unique frames of reference.
Two people standing in the same room can experience the same absolute temperature differently. One can feel hot while the other feels cold, even though the temperature is the same. Also in political debates, our beliefs are shaped by our unique experiences and social contexts. A policy that seems like common sense to an urban progressive might feel like complete nonsense to a rural conservative, and vice versa.
In this way, understanding relativity is key to fostering empathy and finding common ground. However, relativity is not the same as relativism i.e., the idea that all perspectives are equally valid.
Recognising the relativity of our perceptions doesn’t mean we don’t have to make judgments about validity. Instead, it’s a call to examine our assumptions, seek out diverse perspectives, and expand our frames of reference. We all have blind spots (things we cannot see).
Understanding that our perceptions are relative allows us to open ourselves to other ways of seeing. If you’re wondering where to get started, try asking others what they see that you can’t. Apply your judgment to their responses and update your beliefs accordingly.
You know what shook me when I was Muslim?
The story of Hosea. God tells a prophet to marry a woman He knows will betray him.
She does. She runs to other men. She ends up enslaved, sold, used up, worthless to the world.
And God tells Hosea to go BUY HER BACK.
To pay money for his own wife who cheated on him, and love her again. Hosea 3.
I thought it was the most humiliating command in the Bible. Why would any man do that?
Then I realized I was the wife.
I gave my heart to everything but God. I chased other masters. I sold myself cheap. I made myself worthless.
And God looked at me, the betrayer, and didn’t say “you’re not worth it.”
He said, “Name the price. I’m buying her back.”
That’s the Gospel. God doesn’t wait for the unfaithful to come crawling back clean.
He pays to redeem them while they’re still dirty.
Islam told me to make myself worthy of God.
Hosea showed me a God who pays to redeem the unworthy.
The cross was Him naming the price.
Praise the Lord.
