NNPC holds about 7.25% shares in Dangote Refinery, even more than Elon Musk's stake in Tesla. Nigerians will be able to buy shares in the refinery individually in about 4-5 months and earn dividends in naira or dollars.

Aliko Dangote, Founder and CEO, Dangote Group

[Nairametrics @Nairametrics]

"Nigerians too will have an opportunity in the next maybe maximum 4 or 5 months, they will actually be able to buy their shares.

And what I promised before, people will have a choice either to get their dividends in Naira or to get their dividends in dollars"- Aliko Dangote speaking as he receives the NNPC Group CEO, Bayo Ojulari at the Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals.

This elderly woman saw some young men working on their village road in Anambra and gave them ₦500 to buy water and share.

Days later, the same workers returned to her home with a bag of rice and ₦220,000, thanking her for her kindness.

In 1983, exactly 43 years ago, a girl from Itaberaí (Goiás) slipped past the security of Brazilian President Figueiredo and handed him a letter asking for a house for her mother, who was a domestic worker and unemployed.

The girl’s request led to the construction of the Valentina Figueiredo housing complex in João Pessoa, Paraíba, which is home to 22,000 residents and was named after the president’s mother.

Are you watching the Chinese New Year Gala? The Robot Kungfu show is mind blowing!!!

They just executed a coordinated martial arts routine with spatial precision, rhythm control, and dynamic balance adjustments in real time.

Kung fu, one of China’s most iconic traditional art forms , performed by machines built with cutting-edge AI control systems, advanced actuators, and high-speed feedback loops. Ancient discipline meets algorithmic precision.

Last year, humanoid robots stepped onto the Spring Festival Gala stage for the first time. This year, they held synchronized kung fu stances with balance that would humble half of us after leg day.

And they did it live!!! On the most-watched television event on the planet.

The progress in just one year is magical.
That’s what we call China speed.

What makes it even sweeter is where this happened.

I love how the progress is integrated in culture. In celebration. In a Lunar New Year gala watched by hundreds of millions.

It’s music to my ears.

The robots didn’t look like they were “trying” anymore. They looked like they belonged.

Their joint articulation was smoother.
Their formation timing tighter.
Their balance recovery almost elegant.
Their choreography is expressive.

That’s what happens when AI models improve, control systems get smarter, hardware stabilizes, and iteration cycles compress.

One year in robotics today is not the same as one year ten years ago.

It’s compounding.

If this is what 12 months looks like,
imagine 36.

The Chinese New Year Robot Kungfu Gala is just futuristic.

It was quite the statement!

The future is getting better very, very fast.

It was so beautiful to watch. What do you think?

If Alberta wants to separate from Canada, you don’t get to keep Canadian land, Canadian resources, or exploration rights.

You don’t get to hate the country and still profit from it.

Pack your bags. Go. 🇨🇦

Morocco assaulted Senegal player, Yehvann Diouf, over a towel in the AFCON Final! 👀💀

[Francisco Brainiac @FranciscoBrainy]

After Morocco players threw away Mendy's towel (same thing they did to Nwabali, Senegal's Reserve Goalkeeper, Yehvan Diouf was tasked to hold a towel for Mendy and dude held it like his life depended on it. 4-5 Moroccan ball boys tried to drag it from him. But he fought, held tight, swindle them and made sure to always give it to Mendy when he needed it. In the end he got his Winners medal But how will CAF @CAF_Media allow this awful behaviour from Morocco? Is this how they wanna host the world Cup? @FIFAcom should look into this and CAF should punish Morocco for such disgraceful behaviour.

I own a small bakery. We aren’t famous, but we pay the bills. Last Tuesday, a woman came in. She was gripping her purse so tight her knuckles were white. She looked at the display case for a long time—too long. She pointed to the smallest plain vanilla cupcake we had. 'Just that one, please,' she whispered. 'Could you… could you put a tiny candle on it? It’s my daughter’s 6th birthday.' I looked at her shoes. They were wet. It was raining outside, and she had walked here. I looked at her eyes. Red-rimmed. I knew that look. It’s the look of a parent who has to choose between rent and a party. 'I’m sorry,' I said, putting on my best acting face. 'I actually have a huge problem. See this 8-inch chocolate cake with the unicorn frosting?' She looked at the expensive cake on the counter. 'My new decorator messed it up,' I lied. 'The icing is… uh… uneven. I can’t sell it. I was about to throw it in the trash. Would you do me a favor and take it off my hands? No charge. It saves me the guilt of wasting food.' She stared at me. She knew. The icing was perfect. She started to cry, right there in front of the croissant tray. 'Are you sure?' she asked. 'Please,' I insisted. 'You’re doing me a favor.' She walked out with a cake that would have cost $65, holding it like it was gold. Yesterday, I found a card slid under my door. It was a drawing from a 6-year-old girl. A unicorn with a big smile. And in wobbly crayon letters: 'Thank you for making my mommy happy.' Best profit I’ve made all year.

Dear PayPal,

Years ago, you shut your doors to Nigeria, branding an entire nation based on a narrative that never reflected reality.

Despite clear data showing Nigeria isn’t among the world’s top sources of online fraud, you chose exclusion over engagement and ignored the innovation, talent, and economic potential right in front of you.

Now you’re back.

The question is why does PayPal need Nigeria now. What does PayPal now want from Nigeria?

Shalom 🙏

[Akin Olaoye @akintollgate]

You must know @PayPal owes many hardworking Nigerians millions of dollars for legitimate transactions. They treated our citizens like trash and never refunded these individuals.
They must pay every Nigerian they owe with interests for funds they seized!

[Bàbátúndé Johnson @btunddej]

I beg you, @theflutterwave, please do not accept any PayPal takeover or buyout.
PayPal labelled Nigeria a fraud risk and hid behind ''regulatory complexity,'' yet they happily operated in India, Pakistan, and others, countries where fraud levels are arguably far higher than Nigeria's.

That double standard is not lost on anyone. Nigerians suffered for years, locked out of global payments, until companies like @chippercashapp and @RaenestApp
(formerly Geegpay) stepped in and filled the gap.

Now that the market works, suddenly PayPal's interest is back. Of course, their eyes will be on one of these companies, especially @theflutterwave.

Let's not reward exclusion with a buyout.
Fuvk PayPal

Those who killed his brother were young men from his own community. “The people referred to as ‘unknown gunmen’ were very well known in the community, but no one dared to speak,” he said:
