Religion has brought Africa more division than development. It has contributed to the loss of countless African lives through religious violence and has often become a tool for exploiting poor and vulnerable people, including many of our mothers.
Before the introduction of Christianity and Islam, Africa had conflicts that was settled by a non sentiment justice, but we never experienced religious terrorism or jihadism in the way we know them today. Today, many Africans passionately defend belief systems their ancestors neither created nor fully understood, often without questioning their origins or the purposes they were originally intended to serve because they were told not to question them.
Look around the world. Which other continent prioritizes imported religious identities over innovation, industrialization, and economic progress to the extent that Africa often does?
Our ancestors traded freely across communities, exchanging goods, culture, and ideas. Today, in some places, religious teachings have created barriers, convincing people that eating with or trading with those of another faith is sinful or spiritually dangerous. This mindset has weakened trust, reduced cooperation, and contributed to the neglect of African-made products, while imported goods—including many manufactured from Africa’s own raw materials—are often regarded as superior.
Africa’s future depends on critical thinking, education, innovation, industrialization, and unity. Religious belief should remain a personal matter, not an obstacle to scientific progress, economic cooperation, or continental development.
This is a very risky decision by both of their personal advisers. The African Big Two should not be allowed to travel on the same aircraft at the same time, given the enormous risks involved.
We are not praying for anything bad to happen. Our concern is simply about protecting the lives of two of Africa’s most valuable and influential individuals. One unfortunate incident could result in an immeasurable loss to their families, businesses, and the continent at large.
We should never forget the tragic death of Access Bank CEO, Dr. Herbert Wigwe, who lost his life alongside his wife and son in a helicopter crash. May their souls continue to rest in peace.
We do not want to see such a tragedy happen again. Billionaires, executives, and other high-profile individuals should learn from past tragedies and take every reasonable precaution when it comes to their safety.
Today, I make a promise to my ancestors.
If @CloudSave_ becomes one of the biggest technology projects to ever emerge from Nigeria, I will dedicate a portion of its success to building the next generation of African innovators. I will provide lifetime scholarships to more than 3,000 young Africans across the continent, giving them the opportunity to study and build careers in technology—including software engineering, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, data science, and hardware engineering.
Because if we succeed, our success must not end with us.
I want the story of Cloud Save to be bigger than a company, bigger than its founders, and bigger than the technology itself. I want it to become a doorway through which thousands of young Africans walk into their own future.
This is my promise.
And if that day comes, I will remember exactly why we started.
We will not only build technology in Africa. We will build the people who will build Africa’s future.

The pressure, the sleepless nights, the endless research, the uncertainty, and the sacrifices I’m making for @CloudSave_ are not merely struggles, they are the price of building something that has never existed before.
I know there will come a time when the world will see what we saw before anyone believed in it. A time when the sleepless nights become stories, the sacrifices become history, and the vision becomes reality. To the humble teams I’m building with, we may not have everything place now plus all the recognition today, but we have something far more valuable (a vision, conviction, and the courage to build).
We are not building merely for ourselves. We are building to prove that great ideas, great technology, and great companies can emerge from Africa and stand proudly among the best in the world. Sooner or later, Africa will look at what we built and know that we did not wait for the future to arrive.

When you meet people who are doing better than you, ask for ideas, not money. A productive conversation can be worth far more than a handout, because the right idea has the potential to create lasting wealth.
NOTE: no rich person keeps or tolerates liabilities around him.
August is here! 💙
Start the month with peace of mind. Keep your memories, work, and important files safe with CloudSave.
CloudSave - protecting your digital life, one file at a time.
Happy New Month!
A lady once told me she was looking for a wealthy man to marry so she could help him manage his money.
I asked her, “Can someone truly know how to manage money if they don’t know how to make it?”
She replied, “Yes. Men often spend money on irrelevant things like expensive cars and luxury watches instead of investing.”
I laughed. 😹
People who have never been in a position to build or manage substantial wealth often judge the financial decisions of those who have. Yet many many of them stay average.
I will rather employ an uneducated, experienced accountant than to employ a first class graduate in accounting with zero experience in finance.
Please guys follow my X account if you come across this tweet 🙏
l'll be posting highly educational tweet which will be focused on geopolitical insights that affects and connects Africa as a continent.
Also I will be touching the criminological, psychological, sociological, economical and security aspects and their solutions.
Again, don't forget I will be advocating/advancing the push for a regulatory religious system in Africa, because I personally believed that there’s a disproportionate focus for a preferred religion empowering over education and industrialization in Africa as a whole, and that has been Africa’s primary problem over the years.
Thank you for following 😊
