If you're a Nigerian developer, whether you're just starting out or you've been building for years, there's so much you can build and learn with homegrown technologies 🇳🇬❤️

We have:

🇳🇬 @Dbrij_hq & @pxxl_space instead of Vercel for hosting.

🇳🇬 @StackshiftCloud for VPS hosting and management, as an alternative to providers like Hostinger and tools like Coolify.

🇳🇬 @Dbrij_hq & @sendly_ai_ instead of Resend for business and transactional emails.

🇳🇬 @cencori instead of OpenRouter and Cloudflare AI Gateway for AI model access and management.

🇳🇬 https://t.co/oN8hCR6UiR instead of Google Analytics and DataFast for website analytics.

🇳🇬 @OutRayTunnel for tunnelling local services, as an alternative to tools like ngrok and Cloudflare Tunnel.

🇳🇬 @Bachs_hq for international payments, as an alternative to Stripe.

And these are just the ones I can remember right now!

I'm not saying you must stop using international tools.

I'm saying we have people right here building alternatives worth trying, supporting, and contributing to. With better local pricing that fits us.

I know I'm missing so many other products.

What other Nigerian-built products and their global alternatives should be on this list?

Drop them in the replies! 👇

And if you're building something in Nigeria or anywhere across Africa, please submit your project to Africa Is Building so more people can discover what you're working on ❤️

Power does not corrupt gradually. It corrupts the moment the ones holding it stop needing the people who gave it. Ibn Khaldun saw this across the Maghreb and wrote it as a law of history, not as warning. Warnings imply the pattern can be broken. It rarely is. The cycle continues

@_i_square I totally agree

[maf @therealmaf_]

My employee resigned after I rejected her request for a raise.

She didn’t argue. She just said, “I understand.”

I thought that was the end of it.

The next morning, she emailed HR: “Please accept this as my formal resignation.”

No complaint. No counteroffer.

I was almost offended.

Me: “You’re resigning over a single raise request?”

Her: “No.”

Me: “Then what is this about?”

Her: “The rejection just made me realize I was never going to be valued here.”

I laughed.

Me: “You’ve worked here for three years. You’re not seriously walking away because of one conversation.”

She nodded. “I am.”

Then she walked out.

Katsina State Governor, Malam @dikko_radda , has congratulated the Director-General of the Katsina State Directorate of Information and Communication Technology, KATDICT, @9aufal Ahmad, on his conferment of the traditional title of Gamzakin Katsina.

Governor Radda described the conferment as a well-deserved honour that recognizes Naufal Ahmad's dedication, innovation, and commitment to the development of Katsina State.

The Governor said the title of Gamzaki, which symbolizes guidance and illumination, perfectly reflects Naufal's role in driving the state's digital transformation agenda.

He noted that under Naufal's leadership, KATDICT has advanced technology-driven public service, promoted digital skills, and created new opportunities for young people in technology and innovation.

Governor Radda said the honour affirms the value of selfless service and urged the new Gamzakin Katsina to see the title as a call to greater service with humility and dedication.

The Governor thanked HRH, the Emir of Katsina, Alhaji Abdulmumini Kabir Usman, for the befitting honour bestowed on Naufal Ahmad. He said the conferment speaks volumes of the Emirate's commitment to recognizing and encouraging young professionals driving the progress of Katsina State.

He wished him continued wisdom and success in service to Katsina State and Nigeria.
