Why don’t women do *insert job that was legally barred to them until the 1970s, requires early and highly specific gate-kept training, and is dominated by a famously misogynistic masculine culture rife with sexual harassment and abuse*
Nigerian Sports administrations have no regard for our female teams. Just look at Nigeria's senior female basketball team, six time Afrobasket Champions, it's nine days to the Afrobasket and they haven't assembled, logistics issues. Our Super Falcons nko, nine time #WAFCON
We don't talk enough about how the Diaspora Nigerian experience entails sharing space with the children of war criminals & thieves who forced your parents to emigrate in the first place. That's how I kept bumping into Obas*njo's bonehead son at networking events.
On Nigerian shelves, “instant milk” brands like Milksi and Kerrygold are everywhere.
But most of them aren’t milk. They’re fat-filled milk powder (FFMP) — a mix of skimmed milk and cheap vegetable oil.

Having a space I can call ‘My office’ has been a ride indeed, there is sooo much to be thankful for!
Hookedbylade is just getting started and we are heading TO THE MOON!🚀
A strong sign that someone has a more incisive intellect than you do, is in their ability to generate ideas or ask great questions you couldn’t have come up with. A really good question is a partial discovery. Any (smart) person can understand or criticize after the fact.
I don’t want us to lose Basola Jamiu Owodunni. He’s an orphan. He did everything right.
•Sat for UTME in 2017
•Admitted to FUTA for Civil Engineering
•Spent 6.5 years in school
•Graduated in 2024
Now, JAMB says his admission was fake.
After clearance. After results. After project defense.
They locked him out of his portal.
They called DSS.
They handed him to the police.
All because of what? A bureaucratic error?
This boy is an orphan. He has no one. And now his entire life is on pause because of JAMB’s arrogance.
Nigeria’s education system is wicked — not broken. Wicked.
Where’s the justice? Where’s the humanity?
If Basola breaks down or worse, his blood will be on the hands of this system.
@FuadXIV 100 students were listed as the top performers in the 2009 WASSCE. What happened to them in a period that spans four presidencies? What did they study? And, most importantly, where are they now?

Today is my last day as a software engineer at Moniepoint.
It’s been 10 years since I started my career at this great company. 10 years of blood, sweat, tears, and triumph. What a journey it has been!!
