@akintollgate This take is struggling for oxygen. Spare yourself the public IQ audit.

There's no life outside politics, my dear brother. Politics interferes with life on a daily.

[Akin Olaoye @akintollgate]

Read my tweets. I don't insult or use unprintable words.
Difference between being a human and an "Omoluabi"!

There is life outside of politics! 🙏🏽

The land of freedom. God bless America.

You’ll almost never see Nigerians pulling off feats like this in China, a country some of you adore so much. God bless America! 🇺🇸

@eniolaakins @TonyOElumelu The man carries STEEZE. And this potent reiatsu clings to him, silent but impossible to ignore.

[Dili דילי @dilichi]

Just saw @TonyOElumelu at a dental clinic I use. Greeted him and he responded quite well like he already knew me. I won’t lie — I was a bit starstruck, quite surprisingly. Moments like this remind me that online interactions are nothing like real life.

@a_m_media_ke This is a very unintelligent take. A lot of noise, no content. Are you anti-foreign investment or just anti-Nigerian?

[Dili דילי @dilichi]

@FinPlanKaluAja1 @Montero1016 The funny part is that you may have been hoping to be proved wrong. Unfortunately, dem no dey use water clean permanent marker.

[Dili דילי @dilichi]

@KingsleyMa93784 It would have been nice if you provided reasons on why it's flawed. I'm open-minded towards learning.

[Dili דילי @dilichi]

Patriarchy is not a bad thing.
In every society there has to be rules and order. It just happens that in many cases those rules seem patriarchal, but there are also societies that are matriarchal, and it's ok.
Simpletons just demonize things they can't understand or accept.

[Maryanne Moghalu @MaryanneMoghalu]

Yes the culture is rooted in patriarchy, but that doesn't make it all bad. In some cultures, it is the opposite.
In 2026, most of the issues you raise here are family issues. They are handled strictly by the family.
Yes, if you do not get married, the culture adequately provides for you.
If you get married and do not want to leave, surely, that is an arrangement that you have to agree on with your husband. If he is happy moving to your home and your family is happy to have him, I don't see how anyone can stop you.
If you marry and do not want to change your name, again, that is your prerogative. If you and your husband agree to this and he even wants to go a step further and take your name, no one can stop you. I am not aware of any Igbo tradition that forces you to take a new name or move from home. These are "practices" that have over time become accepted as norm. Do not confuse them with tradition.
As a matter of fact, the real Igbo tradition will encourage you as the only child of a family or one in which there are no male children, to sit at home and have your children from wherever you want and as many as you want. They will all bear your father's name and all of you will have full rights of inheritance. As long as you are not married, every child born there belongs there.
So we have CHOICES.
Society has to be organized and every action will have a corresponding effect.
Imagine a society where there are no ground rules. Anyone can do whatever they want. I can come from Ogidi and insist on being the Igwe of Nnewi. Why not?

[ERomZ #FreeEromz #EndSARS @simplyEromz]

Make I no talk. But the reason a lot of them distanced from me after EndSARS was when they realized I was truly invested in Nigeria and getting done the right way. They figured I was going to clock them and cut me off gradually.

This nation will work and righteous men will arise!

[Dili דילי @dilichi]

This is another angle

[Half A Hulk Face @HulkHalf]

except your whole premise is wrong.

The companies aren't slowing down. The big four hyperscalers have guided to roughly $720–745 billion in 2026 capex, up from about $410 billion in 2025 — an increase somewhere near 80%, with analysts already talking about crossing $1 trillion in 2027.

[Dili דילי @dilichi]

If any one of them decided to slow down by themselves, they are overtaken but their competitors who refused to slow down. So they do need a central authority that can regulate everyone. This only prevents everyone from venturing into certain aspects of AI that are prohibited.

[Dr. Eli David @DrEliDavid]

Hi Dario and Sam 👋
If you want to slow down your AI development, feel free to do it. Anyone preventing you?

Slow down, stop, or even shut down your AI. Why do you need the government to intervene?*

*Answer: To stop your emerging competitors.

[Dili דילי @dilichi]

We shouldn't perpetuate the culture of others telling our stories or defining our heritage. There was nothing like Afrobeats. What we had was Afrobeat invented by the maestro Fela, & other genres like Highlife, Juju, Fuji etc.
If you lose your identity, others tell your story.

Oliver De Coque's paean to Oba Lamidi Adeyemi in the album 'No More War' (1995), transforming pure Highlife to Agidigbo/Juju towards the end.
