A few months ago I rented a place for my brother in Jabi Dakibiyu.

Two months later, it was demolished.

The agent didn't warn us. The listing didn't mention it. But the people living in that neighbourhood? Many of them saw it coming.

power and water updates, the things you only hear about from people who live there.

I'm reposting local updates (with credit) so the feed is useful from day one.

If you live in Abuja, or you're planning to move here, join your neighbourhood

@the_realpaschal Very sharp bro!

@osehfavvy Not gonna lie, it used to give me imposter syndrome. Now I've flipped it into motivation. Seeing people ahead of me just makes me want to level up.

It's not a replacement for a good QA engineer, but it's way better than just clicking around and hoping everything works.

It's one of those small things that can save you from shipping embarrassing bugs.

[Shaks @DevShaks]

One thing I've been doing lately is using AI to generate test cases before I ship features.

If you can't afford to hire a QA yet, this honestly helps a lot.

Just give it context about your app and ask it to generate:

Happy paths
Edge cases
Validation checks
Error scenarios
Permission checks
Responsive/mobile cases

Then go through the list one by one while testing.

Recommendations beat job portals almost every single time.

I’ve had a similar experience.
I’ve recommended at least five people for tech roles at a UK based company that operates in Nigeria. Over time, the founder started trusting me with recruitment and even interviews.
And it all came from one thing the first person I recommended delivered.
Fun fact I met him on X, we became friends, and a few months later I shared the opportunity with him and he absolutely nailed it.
