No One Is Coming to Save You
Not your parents.
Not your boss.
Not your partner.
You are the plan.
This world owes you nothing.
But it rewards those who take radical responsibility.
A First Bank employee named Tijani Muiz Adeyinka worked on the electronic products team.
His job gave him legitimate access to process reversals for customers.
He used that access to credit merchant accounts with money that was not theirs.
The fraudulent postings went to his wife's Zenith Bank account first.
From there to 34 other accounts.
Which then spread to 1,190 secondary accounts across multiple banks.
By the time First Bank noticed and reported it to the Nigeria Police Force on March 25, 2024...the figure had grown from ₦12 billion to ₦40 billion.
He was already on the run.
Three court orders across Lagos and Jalingo were obtained to freeze accounts.
Some of the money had already been converted to USDT through crypto traders.
This is what insider fraud actually looks like in Nigerian banking.
Not a dramatic hack.
A staff member. A privileged function. No second authorization required.
If your system allows any single person to trigger financial transactions without a second approval layer that is your vulnerability.
Segregation of duties is not bureaucracy.
It is what stands between your system and ₦40 billion walking out the door.
In January, I posted about a platform called “Mercor”.
For this platform: You apply once and get matched with real, paying clients.
Mercor is a remote talent platform that connects researchers, survey takers, reviewers, annotators, global professionals, developers, designers, and more with startups and companies.
You apply once, then get matched with real, paying clients.
Here is a step-by-step guide to get started:
📌 Create an airtight, standout profile—this is what gets you noticed.
🔖 Create a strong CV (you can pay a pro for this).
📚 Add all your past experience.
✅ Upload projects (GitHub, gigs).
🧰 Include tools you’re great at (React, Figma, Notion, Scribe, etc.).
✅ Be remote-ready: stable lighting, reliable data (Mifi/modem/router if possible), good phone/PC for recordings.
📩 Stay responsive on email.
📌 Go to the “Opportunities” section on the dashboard.
✅ Be strategic—don’t apply to every task, especially if you’re not a good fit.
🛑 Only apply for jobs you’re qualified for.
✅ Read each job description fully and tailor your application where possible.
✅ You can tweak your application to fit the job/task (don’t overdo it sha 😆).
📌 Invitations come via email or the dashboard, followed by an interview.
A Talent Manager will screen you (15–30 mins).
Possible questions include:
✍️ Intro: "Tell me about yourself"
✍️ Questions on your experience
✍️ Tools used
✍️ Remote setup (speed test is important)
✍️ Expected salary / availability
✍️ What tools do you use daily?
✍️ How comfortable are you working at XYZ time of day?
📌 Client Interview (Final Round)
When shortlisted, you’ll meet the actual hiring company through Mercor.
This is where you:
• Discuss your approach to work
• Pitch your past results
• Talk about goals, tools, culture fit
• Ask smart questions about the role
🎯 What They Look For
🗣️ Clear communication (especially async)
📝 Results over titles
⏰ Time zone compatibility (not an issue if you can work late nights, which is daytime there)
✅ Ownership mindset
📍 Tools & apps you should be familiar with:
• Zendesk
• Slack
• Notion
• Figma (for design/product roles)
• GitHub
• Zoom/Google Meet
• Jira, Asana, Trello
After the interview, expect a response within 3–7 days.

Wow, okay. Here is the bill from the hospital. She was scheduled for 2 surgeries. One has been done, and we're trying to solicit for the second. We estimated it to be #15M because of the cost of other things.
God bless you.
