Honestly fed up of everyone who makes light of our situation. It’s not funny ! It shouldn’t be a skit it shouldn’t be treated like something to laugh about.
This is not resilience it’s stupidity and we need to stop it now or we’d never be taken seriously. Stop it!!!!!
And I’m telling you that if you keep trying to get laughs from people about the misery we’re all facing as Nigerians, the Government will keep us in that misery since we all like to laugh.
To all of you yelling “satire”
The entire idea of satire as a literary device is to use humor/be entertaining while also criticizing and exposing the issue at the base of the content.
Portraying “akara selling” as a lucrative business where you’re taking payment in solana and eth, patronizing Polanco and shopping at hf etc.
where is the said “satire” that you all are screaming?
Masobe can be an important institution that has contributed immensely to Nigerian publishing, and it can also be held accountable for poor communication and unprofessional experiences.
At the same time, let’s not downplay the role of book influencers. They don’t just post pretty pictures of books. They introduce readers to new authors, create conversations around stories, drive book sales, and help build a reading culture. (We all can see that) For many readers, an influencer’s recommendation is the reason they discover or buy a book in the first place.
If the goal is a stronger publishing industry, then publishers, authors, and influencers need one another. Accountability and institutional growth have to exist side by side. Supporting an industry doesn’t mean ignoring its problems. It means listening, improving, and valuing everyone’s contribution.
It’s time to talk about my experience with Masobe Books. I joined their "exclusive influencer community" back in May 2025 expecting a genuine partnership. Instead, it has been a draining cycle of entitlement, and blatant exploitation of free labor. A thread. 👇🏾
I am having the most peaceful crashout of my life right now. Like, I am going insane, but also just chilling and vibing. I am stressed about a bunch of stuff, but at the same time, I am not. I don't know how to explain it.
Adulthood I guess. 🤣
Sadly, the momentum for the release of those innocent children in captivity is dwindling down..
As if it wasn’t right in our faces, Nepo babies were rescued in 48hrs
Damn💔
I will never participate in the inhumane way misogyny views women. NEVER.
A virgin woman and a sex worker have the same value and dignity. FULL STOP.
That is how I view all women, equally.
