also, a whole lot of this Olodo uprising is looking like the millennials angry they are no more the tastemakers or pop culture deciders. Like the previous generation with us. Same argument how they used to say the things we liked were dumb

BREAKING: SpaceX has agreed to acquire Cursor, the world's fastest growing software startup, for $60 billion in an all stock deal.

Cursor has over 1 million paying customers, more than $2 billion in annualized revenue, and is projected to hit $6 billion by end of 2026.

At $60 billion, this is the largest software acquisition in history, paying 20 to 30 times Cursor's current revenue.

The deal is subject to regulatory approval and expected to close in Q3 2026.

SpaceX now owns the rockets, the satellites, the AI models, the chips, and is about to own the tool every developer on earth uses to write code.

🚨 Big Scoop 🚨

Ripple, the $50 billion blockchain infrastructure company, has made an undisclosed investment in Flutterwave’s Series E at a $3.25 billion valuation!

Africa’s stablecoin race is ramping up.

We are witnessing in real time where African payments are headed, who gets to build the rails, and why the stablecoin race for the continent just got serious.

We need a new terminology for what African countries understand industrialisation to mean. That word doesn’t quite work because it has no development attached to it.

All things equal, you should expect the same outcomes for this refinery as happened with Dangote Cement.

For instance, after more than 20yrs, no engineering talent has flowed out of Dangote Cement into the wider economy and I’ve not heard of anyone who developed their engineering talent in the group and then went on to set up their manufacturing or engineering concern elsewhere in the country. The entire management of the company is simply hired from elsewhere.

When you read this you’ll notice there’s no crossover between the cement concern and this refinery in terms of engineering talent or knowledge

My strongest opinion about Nigerian politicians is that they all have doctrines/organising principles about how the world should work. And they rarely change their minds about them.

Nothing reinforces this belief for me more than historical evidence. It is extremely important that we understand them.

While presenting the 2025 budget in December 2024, President Tinubu set an ambitious inflation target of 15% by December 2025.

Today, the headline inflation rate has eased to 14.45%.

Target set. Target achieved.
