🇪🇸👏 Presenter: "Julián Alvarez is a victim of Atlético Madrid."
@RodrigoFaez of ESPN: "Excuse me? Excuse me? Excuse me? Do we have Joan Laporta running the show now?
No, not at all, not at all. I mean, nobody put a gun to Julián’s head and forced him to sign a six-year contract to leave Manchester City and join Atlético Madrid.
Nobody blamed him whatsoever for the double touch on the penalty against Real Madrid in that Champions League knockout tie.
Nobody at Atlético Madrid ever told him he had to score goals when, last year, he went three straight months without scoring a league goal.
Nobody said anything to him or criticized him at Atlético Madrid when, last season, in the only final Atlético played in the Copa del Rey, he missed a penalty.
NOBODY said anything to him.
The only thing they’ve told him is: ‘You have a contract here that you have to honor.’
That’s it. And if not, then you need to bring me an offer that obviously works for you, but that also works for the club that paid more than 90 million euros for you less than two years ago.
And that somehow makes him a victim? Come on. NO, NO, and NO!"
Other presenters: "Bravo, bravo," followed by claps in the studio.
We run a retail economy that's largely unregulated. That's why for example, you can be in traffic and someone will knock on your window selling gala. That doesn't happen elsewhere.
Moniepoint actually optimizes retail by providing point of sale enablements to those who would have otherwise been handicapped by traditional financial institutions not providing what they should, such as prompt and seamless transactions, and readily available cash.
So the point is, in a working system with all loopholes plugged in, Moniepoint's system won't survive. I left out even more pressing areas like regulatory issues, etc.
Stating the obvious in these climes gets you tagged an "hater" but time is usually one's ally.
It's okay throwing different things on a wall hoping something sticks after gaining initial traction. Why not consolidate on what works instead?
Anyway who am I? 😅

It really has never been this bad
Look at this little girl, Kamsi. Her mom used all the money she had made selling corn (₦120,000) to send her to Enugu from Imo for the 2-week technology bootcamp.
The good news is that someone has refunded her mom the ₦120,000 she invested in her daughter.
She is doing amazingly well in the training already.
She lost her only brother to a road accident, and her mom believes that education is their only way out.
She is exceptional, and the world will celebrate her greatness someday.
The media sector in Africa has failed us. We keep seeing news about Ukraine and Gaza but the genocide happening in neighbouring countries like Sudan and Congo has been grossly underreported.
We need to do better in Africa.
Most people still don’t work from home. Most Nigerians actually hustle OUTSIDE their homes. MTN Fibre X cannot be used outside the home. It is useless to most people.
People celebrating it are only celebrating faster upload and download speed, something that is normal even in other African countries.
When MTN is serious, we would all know. For now, they are still sham, giving tinsel and calling it gold.
We suffer so much in this country, so much that what is supposed to be basics are now celebrated as privileges.
A leading Opposition Party Candidate warned you that a Portion of the Eastern Bound Expressway was Terribly Bad. Instead of you to hurry up and Fix the Bad Portion to Immediately counter His Narrative. The FG Insulted him In the Media for Days Yet did Nothing. Today Motorists have been stuck on that Road for 3 straight days due to the Terrible conditions of the Highway. Businesses Lost. Many Lives and Appointments rendered Useless. This governance Thing is not Hard but everyday @OfficialAPCNg makes it look Like Rocket Science.. I honestly don’t know how Nigeria reached this Point of Mediocrity, where Leaders don’t Take Correction and Move Quickly to action . People are Paying Taxes. The Nation is Generating More than Enough Wealth to pay to Have these Roads built. What is this continued Incompetence towards your own People and your Own Country?Where is your Patriotism? Aren’t you ashamed? 🤬 When we screamed that There are too many Bad roads in Nigeria There’s no Need to start an Entirely new Expressway from Lagos to Calabar, all we got as Citizens was Insults and Propaganda from the Tinubu administration. I honestly don’t get it anymore. Elections are next Year. You would think a Serious Govt that wants a second term will be going around Fixing Everywhere to win the People over. Instead the Hardship is Increasing and NOTHING is being done. A whole NADECO veterans sharing Rice, Bread and Money to buy Votes in big 2026 is downright Shameful. Dear Nigerians, the Ball is in your court. Heaven has given You more than Enough signs. You have Zero Excuses. Get your PVC. Get Ready.
VOTE WISELY 2027.
Vote NDC. Vote Obi/RMK
Nigeria will be OK. 👍🇳🇬
i don't know who needs to hear this but your ability to create the reality that you want is directly determined by your willingness to experience its opposite.
- saving money will have you feeling broke while it's actually making you rich.
- setting boundaries will have you feeling alone while you're creating new healthy relationships in your life.
- digging up your trauma will have you feeling broken while it's actually healing you.
- working out has you feeling weak while it's really making you strong.
- learning something new makes you feel dumb while it's making you more intelligent.
your ability to attain the thing that you want is directly correlated with how willing you are to experience its opposite. you have to be ok with being uncomfortable to truly achieve success!
