[National Board For Technology Incubation (NBTI) @NigeriaNBTI]

I had the distinct honour of engaging in a high-level strategic dialogue with the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ola Olukoyede, where we explored forward-looking avenues for institutional collaboration between the National Board for Technology Incubation (NBTI) and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

Our discussion was anchored on unlocking the transformative power of technology-driven innovation, entrepreneurship development, and structured mentorship—particularly as a rehabilitative and empowerment pathway for EFCC inmates under the laudable initiative of the NBTI Technology Incubation Programme. This engagement, which took place at the iconic Transcorp Hilton Abuja, reaffirmed our shared commitment to harness innovation as a tool for social reformation, productivity, and sustainable reintegration.

I also had the privilege of presenting the strategic vision behind the NBTI NextGen Innovation Challenge 2026, a flagship initiative designed to identify, nurture, and scale high-impact innovations across Nigeria. In doing so, I highlighted the outstanding success of the NextGen Innovation Challenge 2025, which delivered remarkable outcomes, empowered a new generation of innovators, and further strengthened NBTI’s leadership in advancing Nigeria’s innovation ecosystem.

This engagement underscores a resolute commitment to purposeful collaboration—bridging governance, innovation, and social impact—while inspiring confidence in the boundless potential of our nation’s human capital.

As usual, I believe some people have cleaned their camera lenses, eagerly waiting to capture images of the moon tonight and perhaps begin their usual remarks about this moon not being a first crescent. Unfortunately, I have bad news: the crescent will still not be visible to the naked eye this evening in Nigeria bi izinillah . This is because the moon's age will be just over 16 hours, and a crescent is typically easily visible with the naked eye when it reaches 18 hours or more. Additionally, the moon’s illumination will be less than 0.5%. Even in Niger Republic and Mali, where sightings of the crescent were claimed yesterday, it will not be visible today.

The crescent should be easily visible to the naked eye tomorrow, Friday, In shaa Allah because it will be about 40hrs old by sunset in Nigeria .

Allah has made it possible for us to understand the movements of the sun and moon, as evidenced by many verses in the Quran. Allah stated in the Quran: Surah Ar-Rahman (55:5) states: "The sun and the moon move along their computed courses" (or follow a precise calculation). This verse highlights the perfect, ordained, and punctual motion of the celestial bodies as a sign of Allah’s mercy, power, and precise design in the universe, emphasizing order, consistency, and divine regulation.

Allahu a’alaam!!!

The 2026 edition is strictly merit-driven.

Dedicated Innovate UK Commercialization Slots

The first question in every interview:

“So, tell me a bit about yourself?”

Don’t talk about your hobbies.

Don’t repeat your resume.

Say this instead 👇

Nigeria our father's land

[Harmless @HarmlessHQ]

You're comparing $1500 in the US to N1.5 million in Nigeria.

Are you mad??
N1.5 million in Nigeria is already above the salary of a Major General in Nigeria.
Meanwhile a Major General in US earns $18,000 per month.

Either you compare $18,000 and N1.5 million.

Or you compare $1500 and N70,000.

Everything is not politics.
