FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 53 YEARS, THE KNICKS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS 🏆
New York defeats San Antonio 4-1 in the NBA Finals, capturing their third championship in franchise history!
Nigerians discovered something Kenyans refuse to accept. When verified accounts engage each other everyone earns more. The algorithm rewards engagement. More engagement means more impressions. More impressions means more ad revenue. The cake gets bigger for everyone.
But Kenyans looked at this simple mathematics and said no thank you. We prefer the jar.
You know the jar. Put Kenyan crabs in it and you do not need a lid. The moment one crab starts climbing the others grab its legs and pull it back down. Not because they benefit from it staying down. Just because watching it climb is personally offensive.
So a Kenyan creates content that gets 5 million impressions and a verified account with 50,000 followers cannot bring themselves to hit repost. Their thumbs seize up. Their phone suddenly needs charging. They develop a mysterious allergy to the engagement button.
Meanwhile in Lagos verified accounts are in group chats actively sharing each other's content, building audiences together and collectively cashing out while Kenyans are busy subtweeting each other and calling it competition.
The Nigerian content creator is paying rent from X revenue. The Kenyan content creator is explaining to their landlord that the algorithm has been difficult this month.
The question is simple. Is your verified account deliberately refusing to engage quality Kenyan content? And if so, who exactly benefits from that decision?
Because it is certainly not you.

Browns Plantation Kericho has bought 30 electric trucks.
The first 100,000 EV duty waivers might not even end up with ordinary Kenyans. Large companies could easily take most of the slots before personal car buyers even get a chance.
I'm old enough to remember when Man United used to celebrate winning major titles rather than one of their players being given an award. How times change.
