I really love the viral moment that stocks have been having over the last couple of days. Let me dig into the numbers.
According to statistics, about 60 millionNigerians between the ages of 18 and 40 are involved in active sports betting. Proshare.
Whereas, the Nigeria Stock Market has only 600,000 active accounts.
Financial literacy needs to go mainstream. We need to make investing cool. It’s not going to happen overnight, it will require intentional educational and adoption.
Nigerian Police Force Microfinance Bank just dropped its Q1 2026 numbers and not a single loan went bad. Zero.
Even with loans at 23.5% from a pool of ₦2.7bn to MSMEs, no defaults recorded.
Are defaulters scared or they do something differently?
Africa’s economic sovereignty will be built through industrialisation. By scaling manufacturing, strengthening value chains, and converting resources into finished goods, the continent can drive sustained growth, create jobs, and retain more value within its economies.

I woke up this morning and saw all the tags and reactions to the UBA Q1 results, and to be honest, I felt disappointed, not because of the result itself, as a weak quarter is normal in investing, but because of how some people are reacting to it. It shows that many still do not fully understand what investing really is, despite everything that has been shared and taught over time by me and other experienced investors on this platform.
The stock market is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It does not move in a straight line, and it is not a one-way street of profit-taking. When a company fails to meet expectations, the stock can decline, and that is how the market works. But the real question is whether the business is still standing.
If you know why you bought a stock and your decision was based on long-term value, then short-term movements should not create fear. This is why understanding what you are buying matters more than reacting to what the market is doing.
If you think in quarters, the market will confuse you. If you think in years, the market will reward you.
So ask yourself why you invested in UBA, because your answer should give you peace of mind, not worry.

Tracy Iwu [@Tracy_iwu ] was handed a brief with nothing in it.
No ad budget. New product. Naira in freefall.
She and the marketing team still drove $1M in savings deposits in 3 months.
Here's exactly how they did it 🧵
TOE: “Guys, I have only 17mins to take these birthday pictures. I have a meeting shortly”.
Me: “Say less Sir” 😌
We were done in about 15 mins.
So we had 15 mins to create a one of a kind portrait for a one of a kind leader.
Happy Birthday @tonyoelumelu 🎈
Literally the biggest influence in my professional career. Grateful that I met you, thankful that I work and learn from you and blessed that I can call you mentor.
Thank you for opening the doors of opportunity
Happy Birthday Chairman @TonyOElumelu
Tony Elumelu's bet on Seplat Energy shows luck is needed even after all the financial market analysis. The situation in the Middle East will likely boost his wealth
@KneWKeeD@elonmusk It didn’t say white but the narrative is all foreign models and VOs. It’s easier to identify by skin colour so you are certainly taking off a certain demography with that law. We grew up seeing skincare ad models in various skin colours - Lux, Joy, etc
@KneWKeeD@elonmusk lol this one is true tho - ARCON did. Bank’s and some Organisations have been having a back and forth on it with ARCON
