We’re solving the Olodo uprising pandemic, one NYSC at a time. That’s our contribution to society.
That’s why @Tunde_OD, @hackSultan and I are launching a ₦250 Million Scholarship Fund to help recent graduates gain real, in-demand tech skills that lead to jobs.
Each successful applicant will receive a ₦160,000 scholarship towards a 9–12 month AltSchool Africa diploma in any course of their choice. Beyond technical training, participants will also receive career support and internship/job opportunities through Jobs59.
We also know that learning without a laptop is a major barrier, so we’ll be providing laptops to a select number of scholarship recipients through an additional application process.
If you know a recent graduate who deserves this opportunity, share this post with them.

I had the most hilarious conversation with my cousin this week about why he left Nigeria.
He was working with a very big guy in Nigeria, and the guy's son, who was once his younger flatmate in school in England, was looking for work abroad after he graduated from the same school instead of coming back home to work for his Dad.
My cousin asked him why he was not coming home. He replied that he was not going to learn anything worthwhile if he did. My guy took a cue and advised himself to do the same thing. LOL!
This was the exact reason why I didn't go into Nigerian banking. I saw too much at the top to aspire to it as a career path. My people were not doing banking; they were doing wheeling and dealing. Nothing different from Agbero work.
I am happy today to see those who once worked with me in places like Google, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, etc. I had to relearn everything from Hallam and working for MTN. How many bankers who are not from Citibank, Standard Chartered, or Stanbic can boast of doing the same?
I was talking to someone in investment banking at one of these local banks, and he was lamenting that they never get to learn anything and the deals are handed down to them. He, too, wanted to go and learn elsewhere.
When the HSBC Capital team came to do the Econet deal in Lagos, I was in the same office with them for a month and learned more than I did throughout my MBA and the time I spent doing stuff for my uncle in major local bank acquisition deals. I practically imposed myself on them and learned a lot.
This is another reason why people leave Nigeria. You don't really grow in your career. In 2002/2003, I worked with some guys from SA doing information security assessments in Nigeria for Econet and FirstBank. They were supposed to come back in 6 months to repeat the assessment, but never did because of inside politics after the fallout of the first assessment.
In those 6 months, the SA team had done 200 other assessments globally; I had done none. I left Information Security after that and focused on ERP and Applications support. I also needed UK experience, which is why I left for Hallam. It made all the difference. In tech, your competition is global. I had learned the hard way before.
@DrJoeAbah Ezemmuo anyhow you choose to look at it, what has happened is bad for our national image. It should not have happened at all, whether scam or not. Leaders in any sphere of influence should be held to the highest levels of responsibility and conduct. This is bad!
"Word on the street is... Sui." 💧
But this is really about people.
The trader waiting for money from abroad.
The freelancer expecting payment from a client overseas.
The family sending money back home.
For millions of people, cross-border payments are still too slow and too expensive.
The future needs faster payouts, lower remittance costs, and financial access for everyone.
That's the opportunity stablecoins create.
And that's why @SuiNetwork is building for a world where money moves without borders.
This is 84!
Not counting years; counting souls.
Not counting days; counting altars raised.
Not counting time; counting lives transformed.
No slowing down.
No dimming out.
No retiring from purpose.
84 is discipline.
84 is devotion.
84 is destiny, fulfilled daily.
84 years of a flame that only burns hotter.
84 years of tireless, quiet devotion.
84 years of building people and shaping the future.
Happy 84th Birthday to our Father in the Lord, Pastor E.A. Adeboye.
May your strength be renewed like the eagle’s.
May your voice remain clear, steady, and anointed.
May your latter days continue to outshine the former.
THIS IS 84. Steady. Strong. Soaring.
We love and celebrate you Daddy G.O
