@OurFavOnlineDoc Tinubu wants to teach stock market trading in Nigerian classrooms. The same Nigeria with no reliable electricity to power the computers, no stable internet in most schools and bandits kidnapping the teachers. Fix the classrooms first. Then we can talk about the stock market!

America just passed 100% tariffs on India. Iran deal still unstable. China tensions unresolved. The US is now in a trade dispute with one of the world’s fastest growing economies while its own job market just recorded its 3rd biggest monthly loss since 2020. Who exactly is winning here?

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

Fayose just said lack of electricity is causing Nigeria’s population explosion because people have nothing to do after 7pm but engage with their wives. This man was a governor for two terms. He is now Chairman of the Rural Electrification Agency. He just accidentally gave the most honest explanation of Nigerian governance anyone has ever heard.

@WatcherGuru $2.8 trillion added to US stocks in a single week. The same week the economy lost 23,000 jobs and the Fed quietly dropped rate hike plans. The stock market and the real economy are living completely separate lives right now. Know which one you actually live in.

@instablog9ja Davido said he’ll involve Trump if anything goes wrong in the Osun election. A Nigerian artist threatening to call the American president over a state governorship election. Nobody writes Nigerian politics better than Nigeria itself.

@Polymarket X is scrapping Revenue Sharing and replacing it with Original Content Rewards. Translation; they’re done paying people for reposting other people’s content. If you’ve been growing on X by recycling posts, your strategy just expired. Create or get left behind.

@CNN New York’s richest homeowners are suing the mayor for taxing their second and third homes. People who own multiple properties in the most expensive city in the world are in court arguing they’re the victims. The audacity of wealth never disappoints.

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

@WatcherGuru The Fed just dropped rate hike plans after the US recorded its 3rd largest monthly job loss since 2020. Last week they were hawkish. This week the data changed everything. This is exactly why you never make long-term financial decisions based on short-term Fed signals.

@jarpel26 Peller just became a landlord in Abuja after someone gifted him a house. Last week fake dollars were sprayed at his wedding. This man is living in a Nigerian content creator cinematic universe and nobody can predict the next episode 🙂.

@KamalaHarris Kamala Harris is campaigning for November midterms while the economy is losing jobs, 25 million young Americans can’t afford rent and the S&P 500 is wobbling. Both parties are fighting for power while ordinary people fight for stability. That’s the real story.

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

@CNN The US economy lost 23,000 jobs last month. Stocks are near all-time highs. Gold is at $4,200. These numbers should not coexist and yet here we are. The market and the economy are telling two completely different stories. Know which one affects your daily life.

@sama Sam Altman just said keeping powerful AI models from the public is not a good strategy, then said Astra’s cyber capabilities need more time before release. Translation: this model is so powerful even OpenAI is nervous about it. Pay attention to what they’re not saying.

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

@instablog9ja Nigeria has the population, the brain and the audacity, and ₦155 trillion in debt, bandits kidnapping judges, and a president who left his school history blank on his INEC form. Audacity is not the problem. Accountability is!

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

UEFA paid a six-figure sum to silence an alleged affair involving their own General Secretary, the same man who later became FIFA president. The corruption didn’t start with the World Cup deal. It just got bigger. This is the same organisation football fans are supposed to trust with the game.

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

August is here. The year is more than half gone. The book you said you’d write, the account you said you’d start, the investment you said you’d make; the calendar doesn’t negotiate. What are you actually waiting for?

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

The UK will surprise you but not with the weather alone. Everyone warns you about that. It's everything else nobody mentions.

US GDP fell to 1.5%. The world’s largest economy is visibly slowing. Meanwhile Africa’s fastest growing economies are expanding at 5%+. The opportunity gap between where capital is running from and where it should be running to has never been clearer. The question is who’s paying attention.

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

@FoxNews A Muslim Arab-American doctor just won a Democratic Senate primary in Michigan a battleground state. Whatever your politics, that result tells you the Democratic base is shifting in ways the party establishment clearly didn’t anticipate. 2026 midterms just got very interesting.

[Theo Ayodeji @theo_ayodeji]

@SpeakerJohnson The Speaker of the House is calling the opposition party communists with a hammer and sickle graphic. Meanwhile the S&P 500 just went negative, oil is volatile and 25 million young Americans can’t afford rent. But yes the real urgent issue is communist Democrats.
