[oseni rufai @ruffydfire]

2018, Nigeria shared ₦7.98 trillion through FAAC. At the CBN exchange rate at the time, that was about $26 billion.

In 2025, FAAC was ₦21.9 trillion. That sounds like a massive increase which is almost three times the 2018 figure. But using the CBN rate for 2025, it comes to only about $14.4 billion.

That tells us quite a bit about what has happened to the naira.

In 2018, you needed roughly ₦306 to buy $1. By 2025, you needed around ₦1,500. So yes, there are many more naira in the system today, but each naira is worth much less than it was seven years ago.

So much wisdom in #TheWord.
So much wisdom.

Many of God’s children have a wrong sense of how important Work is to God.

To get the good kinds of outcomes that we desire in Life….. that is, the kinds of outcomes that are not from dishonest gains, God instructs us to “put in the work”.

It is the Work we put in that our God then blesses.

And then His blessing on the Work makes rich without the sorrow that accompanies dishonest gains.

Fools gain wealth dishonestly thinking there will be no consequences but surely as night follows day, treasures of wickedness will be punished if not in the short run but definitely in the long.

The moral legitimacy of wealth matters more to God than people realize.

As it is with people, so it is with nations.

God wants us to “put in the good work” for Him to bless.

Deuteronomy 28:12
“The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, *and to bless all the work of thine hand*: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.”

Deuteronomy 15:10
“…for this thing *the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works*, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.”

Psalm 90:17
“And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: *and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.”*

Deuteronomy 30:9
“And the LORD thy *God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand*…”

Put in the Work! ✍🏾✍🏾✍🏾

Beyond Football: The Match for a Better Nigeria

This weekend, Europe comes alive again with football. Millions of Nigerian youths will be glued to television screens, streaming matches, debating tactics, celebrating victories, and admiring the organisation, discipline, and excellence that make European football the envy of the world. But here is a question worth asking: Why can’t Nigerian football be just as good?

The answer is not a lack of talent. Nigeria has produced world-class footballers who have excelled in Europe because they found systems that reward merit, invest in infrastructure, ensure security, and are governed with competence and accountability. Great football does not exist in isolation. It grows where there is good governance.

The stadiums, academies, transport systems, healthcare, security, electricity, and institutions that support football are products of leaders who make the right choices and citizens who insist on accountability. Nigeria has the talent. What we have lacked is leadership that creates an enabling environment for that talent to flourish.

As I have decided, in the next 150 days, to engage Nigerian youths wherever they gather—in town halls, campuses, online spaces, and even football communities—my message is simple: The future you admire in Europe can be built in Nigeria. But it starts with your vote.

Imagine a Nigeria where our local league is competitive, our stadiums are full every weekend, our clubs attract sponsorship, our coaches receive proper training, and young footballers no longer see emigration as their only path to success.

Nigeria will not emerge through wishful thinking. It will emerge when young Nigerians decide that elections matter as much as football matches. Every goal scored in Europe is a reminder that excellence is possible. Every well-managed league is proof that systems work when honest leadership is in place.

The 2027 presidential election is therefore more than a political contest. It is an opportunity for Nigerian youths to choose the kind of country they want—a nation that exports talent because it is respected, not because its citizens are escaping failed governance.

Cheer for Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, PSG, Inter, AC Milan, or any club you support. Enjoy every match. But when the final whistle blows, remember that the greatest match awaiting Nigerian youths is not in Europe. It is in Nigeria.

It is the match for good governance. It is the match for jobs, security, education, sports development, and national renewal. And unlike football, where only twenty-two players are on the pitch, every Nigerian youth has a place in this match.

Stand up. Mobilise. Vote. Defend your vote.

If Nigerian youths can passionately follow European football every weekend, they can also passionately build a Nigeria where our own football—and our nation—becomes a source of pride.

The journey towards better Nigerian football begins with the path to good governance. And the path to good governance begins with the decision of Nigerian youths to stand up and be counted in 2027.

Every weekend, starting today, I will come to you with a reminder of January 16, 2027, and our future. We can create world-class standards right here at home.

It’s in your hands, and that new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

[Manisha Mishra @manishamishra24]

Creator of C++, Bjarne Stroustrup:

AI coding tools are moving faster than engineering teams can control them.

He warns they often introduce hidden complexity, fragile architecture, silent security risks, and code nobody fully understands.

“People think shipping faster means building better.”

But in many cases?

It just means creating technical debt at machine speed.

One tiny prompt tweak can rewrite core logic, break dependencies, and change app behavior in ways developers never intended.

And the scariest part:

Teams start trusting code they never truly reviewed.

Now companies are discovering:
• AI-generated apps that collapse under real traffic
• junior devs merging code they can't explain
• security vulnerabilities hidden inside generated boilerplate
• massive projects becoming impossible to maintain months later

The result?

Software is becoming easier to create…

But harder to trust.
