This is solid advice but it’s only half the game.
Writing like an authority will get you attention. But what keeps you there is substance. A lot of people copy the tone confidence, bold takes, “I said what I said”but there’s nothing underneath it.
The people you mentioned, @jon_d_doe and @Wizarab10 didn’t just sound like authorities. Over time, they built a pattern:
They were consistent. They stood on their ideas. And they were willing to be misunderstood.
That last part is where most people fail.
Because writing like an authority means:
You will be disagreed with publicly
You will be misinterpreted
You will sometimes be wrong loudly
And you still have to keep showing up.
So yes write like an authority.
But earn it in the background too.
Otherwise, you’re just performing confidence and people eventually see through that.
Let me say this, even though I’m supposed to post it for my subscribers only.
One cheat code to becoming big here is writing like an authority.
Take a look at Agba John Doe: If you check his past tweets from as far back as 5 years ago, he has always written like an authority. Today, he is an authority here. You may not always agree with his takes, but you can’t deny that he’s an authority. It didn’t happen suddenly.
Another good example is Sir Dickson. He has been writing like an authority for ages. Even when feminists drag him, he never stopped. You may not always agree with his takes, but he’s an authority here now. It didn’t start today.
Write like an authority. Regardless of your niche, write like one. Even as a business owner, write like an authority. Own your business. Don’t water down your opinions. Don’t be afraid of getting dragged— if anything, it helps you get seen.
Before you know it, people who resonate with you will start sticking around. Even those who don’t will respect your uncommon firmness because you’re saying what some of them know but won’t say.
Don’t let me go into details.
Write. Write. Write.

I condemn kidnapping and demand government to take action but do not involve politics. See the pattern, chibok girls (Jonathan government), kaduna railway kidnapping(buhari), oyo kidnapping (tinubu) , Benue killings( all the governments), the denominator is the kidnapped and the kidnapper. We should all demand actionable steps to punish kidnappers and stop it kidnapping now.
