Finally, the university you’ve been waiting for.
An @AltSchoolAfrica university degree pathway with an updated curriculum that guarantees you a better future. No strikes, no learning Pascal and Cobol in 2026, and a university in Nigeria built on a global model that focuses on learning and credits, not just time spent in school.
A university that rewards your effort and dedication to learning and building, and isn’t designed to limit you to 4 or 5 years before earning a degree.
If Harvard and other top global universities can complete a bachelor’s degree in 3 years, Nigeria should not be left behind, your timeline depends on how much time and effort you put in.
We reduced the number of diploma courses from 10 to 6 because my goal is not to hand out certificates left and right, but to give you an in-depth education. And after years of planning, we’re at the final stage of launching our degree pathway, a fully accredited and licensed degree pathway at @AltSchoolAfrica.
Both current and past students can benefit from this. So if you’ve completed a diploma with AltSchool before, you can come back and complete a degree.
The amount of time you’ll spend depends on whether you already have an ND, HND, or BSc alongside your AltSchool diploma.
And if you don’t have an AltSchool diploma, it doesn’t matter. You can still enroll for the degree.
I’m putting up a form to get your thoughts as we prepare for the launch. Please check the first comment for the link and help fill out the form.
My DM is open to all questions :
🚨ICYMI🇬🇭⛈️⚠️: The Ghanaian creative who reportedly lost equipment worth about $35,000 in yesterday’s Accra floods has been identified as Von Williams(@Amswil_Concepts), an Accra-based CGI and visual effects artist, according to his TikTok account.
Comments under his posts suggest the equipment was uninsured. He also indicates that rising floodwaters eventually toppled the shelving that had initially protected the gear, leading to the damages.
We have reached out for further comment.

“I honestly don’t know how to come back from this. It took me eight years to acquire all these things.”
A photographer has shared his ordeal after floodwaters destroyed photography equipment worth over GHS400,000 when his studio was flooded during yesterday’s heavy rains.
This is not AI.
This is a real photo from 2018, a tech conference my team and I hosted with almost 5,000 attendees.
Recently, I’ve been planning something major for Africans in the US.
And for a moment… doubt crept in.
The kind of doubt that asks: “Is this too ambitious?” “Can this really work?”
Then something interesting happened.
That photo showed up on my timeline, an old tweet.
And it reminded me of something I had almost forgotten.
I remember when I first said I wanted to host a 5,000-person event.
Most people didn’t think it was realistic.
Some thought it was outright impossible.
But we did it anyway.
That experience taught me a lesson I keep coming back to:
The things that feel uncertain today often become the things you’re most proud of tomorrow.
You don’t need to have everything figured out.
You don’t need perfect conditions.
You just need to take the first step, and keep going.
If there’s something you’ve been thinking about building, starting, or pursuing…
Start.
You might be closer than you think.
Let's be clear, if this regulation passes, I'll be fine.
I have options.
I can leave.
I have no need to fight this.
Infact fighting places me in the sights of an ill intentioned official.
We aren't doing this for us, but for the industry.
Find time Tuesday and make it please
I hosted a US billionaire in Lagos… and I didn’t even know it would actually happen.
In 2019, Jack Dorsey tweeted he was coming to Africa — and Nigeria was on the list.
By the Way, Jack Dorsey was the co-founder and CEO of X, formerly Twitter. He is currently worth $6.3 Billion.
The moment I saw that tweet, I told my team: we have to host him.”
No invite. No connection. Just belief.
I started reaching out to anyone I knew at Twitter.
Eventually, one person replied: ‘I’ll check who’s handling the trip.
Days later… silence.
Then suddenly, I get introduced to his Chief of Staff.
And everything started moving fast.
Next thing: background checks.
The security team shows up in our office 2 days before for inspection.
At that point, it became real.”
Then boom,
Jack Dorsey and his leadership team are sitting in my office in Lagos.”
That one visit changed everything for us,
It turned our office into a global stop for international leaders.”
But here’s the craziest part…
There was no special access.
No guaranteed outcome.
We just decided it was possible — and moved.
So next time you’re doubting yourself…
Try first.
You don’t need permission to go for big opportunities.
Accra pricing is starting to feel like a social experiment because why is a gym membership $121/month?? 😭 I pay $26 in America with 24/7 access. How are locals surviving this economy?
