I'd like to share my journey in contributing to the Technical Writing Mentorship Program.
In October 2023, Wisdom Nwokocha brought writers together to build a technical writing course.
Released just five days ago, DeepTutor has already surged past 1.4K stars on Github! It seems people are hungry for a smart learning assistant that truly understands them.

We talked to countless students and kept hearing the same pain points: existing AI tools are either too fragmented or fail to capture personal learning context effectively. That's exactly why we built DeepTutor—to create an AI learning companion that actually remembers your progress and adapts to your unique learning style.
DeepTutor's Core Architecture
- 💬 User Interface Layer
Intuitive bidirectional interaction with structured, actionable outputs that organize complex context seamlessly.
- 🤖 Intelligent Agent Modules
Specialized multi-agent collaboration: problem solving, deep research, guided learning, and idea generation.
- 🔧 Tool Integration Layer
Unified access to RAG retrieval, real-time web search, academic databases, and code execution capabilities.
- 🧠 Personalized Knowledge & Memory Foundation
Persistent memory system built on knowledge graphs with contextual session tracking. Creates truly personalized learning experiences tailored to your individual progress and preferences.
A good time to make this spread and trend again…….
Let’s go !
Jesus just has to be who He says He is. No one gives this joy that He gives.
We celebrate our king, JESUS !
Our first win at YarnGPT came before we launched.
Some days before launch @mekwunyeclinton called me and told me "Saheed abeg I need your help, you said YarnGPT is coming, when is it coming, we need a voiceover for this hackathon".
Apparently they were participating in the recently concluded zenith bank hackathon and they needed something to generate a voiceover for their solution, their products name was "Konfam". They tried elevenlabs and it struggled with pronouncing their solution name.
I sharply opened my laptop, restarted the VM and I sent the site to @mekwunyeclinton. They generated the voiceovers and they were very impressed by the quality. E get some bugs wey them point me to sha💀.
Last Thursday, they presented their project at the final stage of the challenge in the presence of the governor of Lagos State @jidesanwoolu and Jim Ovia!
To cut the long story short, my guys took second place and won 10 million Naira at the zenith bank hackathon.
Congratulations to my guys @mide_TFE@mekwunyeclinton@Justicesiri
YarnGPT is here!
I got a real-looking “Support” email from an app saying my account would be suspended because I hadn’t logged in for a while (they were right).
It looked legit. I even saw the same notification when I logged in but it was a scam.
What NOT to do:
• Don’t click links in emails, even if everything looks legit (I didn’t, but it just goes without saying)
• Don’t enter card details on pages you didn’t navigate to yourself (they took me to a similarly designed website, it was truly convincing until I looked closely at the url)
• Don’t ignore small red flags like a “test fee” (many legit companies ask for a test fee so be careful)
• Don’t proceed when asked to confirm your account balance. (Duh! But they made me type my card details without a thought and this rang so many alarm bells only after)
• Don’t click unfamiliar buttons (they disguised Pay as “Proceed”)
It's here and it's beautiful😍.
I'm excited to announce the release of YarnGPT, the best text to speech system for Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Pidgin and Nigerian English🇳🇬.
YarnGPT can help dub videos to Nigerian languages, create audiobooks/voice overs, and convert URL/PDF to audio.
@donasarkar Oh yea Dona, we have a very vibrant Microsoft Fabric community. We have a monthly IN PERSON meetup and one of the few countries that participated in the maiden edition of Global Fabric day.
Something very mysterious 👀
I rolled up to Lagos to keynote #AgentCon Nigeria 🇳🇬 and scope out #DatafestAfrica but then…
I discovered there is a GIANT #MicrosoftFabric community in Nigeria.
It was a joy to share a few words about what data nerds can be doing given African data is apparently only about 1% of the global AI dataset.
1. Identifying the data gaps that make AI Actually Useful for Nigeria
2. Figure out how to fill these gaps. Synthetic data? Weighting data differently? RLHF? Finetuning? RAG?
3. Solve LOCAL problems with your shiny clean data set and infinite knowledge
We in the west are NOT going to be able to solve Nigerian problems the way you will….if you rely on us, you’ll end up with Uber for Fruit Delivery 😹
Nigerian solutions to Nigerian problems, let’s go team! 🇳🇬
All set of #DataFestAfrica2025!
Things I love seeing:
1. So many data engineers and analysts in one room! Without good data, there is NO AI!
2. The focus on building Africa-centric projects in the AI-verse —right now Africa supplies only 1% of global AI datasets…we need to increase this!
3. A sign interpreter on stage to everyone feels included!
We’re kicking off #DataFestAfrica2025 with something truly special — the Women in AI Breakfast Panel.
A space for real stories, honest conversations, and inspiration from women breaking barriers in STEM and AI.
