This is the most exciting thing I've written in one million years. And while the story appears to centre one man, he's only a small cog in a big, big machine we all inhabit.

Read, maybe 🔫

In 2025, one of the beneficiaries of Bola Tinubu's presidential pardon was a man you've probably never heard of.

We traced the history of his career in fraud all the way back to 1991, when he was first arrested over a Ponzi scheme.

In Darey Art Alade's 'Pray for Me', did the boy who left the village for the city eventually make it? I need an answer abeg.

I've never retweeted a "It'll cost you zero naira to retweet this" tweet, because it's simply not true.

The oil boom of the 1970s transformed Nigeria into a nation of consumers. But the economic crisis that followed, and the import ban that helped Nigerian fashion thrive, could not break the country’s dependence on imports.

I bet half the reason I'm mostly anti-death penalty is because the film that traumatised my childhood was about an old woman arrested for the sin of her (innocent) son and executed right around the time she got a pardon.

Don't remember the title but Olaiya Igwe played the son.

What movie traumatized you as a kid?

@MuyiiAdebayo @TheAnjolajesu Just casual observation.

@TheAnjolajesu Sounds like I'm stressing you. You know what to do.

Went to the cinema for a 10 am screening one year like that (the only showtime for the film) and cinema staff made it seem like I was a mad person for showing up because they'd barely even set up for the day. They still didn't screen the film.

[Femi D. Ogunsanwo @FemiOgunsanw0]

How do you give a film 10am in its 2nd week

🤦🏾‍♂️ There is no one in cinema at that time, neither the cinema staff nor the pop corn machine is on at 10am.

One day Producers will force a sit down with Distributors & Exhibitors to discuss

Until then I’ll stick to TV 📺

[Samson T. @samson_at]

At this point, everyone in the industry should do a conference call and outline how everything works. Can't be doing this every other month.

“If there is a problem with your showtime, speak to your distributor and find a solution. It has nothing to do with AJOSEPO”

Bolaji Ogunmola cries out about the perception that she is the one sabotaging some people’s movie in the cinema

Hmmmm there is problem oo

“Must Nigerians eat bread?”

In the 1980s, this question was at the centre of a national debate about Nigeria’s economic future.

For The Archivist's first episode, we trace the country's historical struggle to reduce its dependence on foreign goods.

A trader just put $1,550,444.00 on Arsenal to win the Champions League at a 47% chance

The payout is $3,250,230.00

This would be the first Champions League title in Arsenal’s history
