You may not see the whole road, but keep walking. Trust the process. 🖤

Ijebuland can become one of the biggest smart cites in Africa, full of technology, creative industries, manufacturing companies, sports, tourism, and modern agriculture, contributing to the growth of the economy. A city where the future of Africa’s next generation can be shaped.

Ijebu Ode and strategically selected areas across Ijebuland can be transformed into a thriving tech city, entertainment hub, sports destination, and industrial centre, the number one environment in Nigeria and Africa for young people seeking a better, more productive life.

'Your Next Five Moves' by Patrick Bet-David

[Goodreads @goodreads]

It's Friday! What are you reading this weekend?

[Adekunle Balogun @thisisbalogun]

True!

You don’t need a perfect system to start.

You need a simple system you can execute, measure, and improve.

Start there.

If young innovators are expected to build solutions that create jobs and solve real problems, the funding and support ecosystem must become more accessible, transparent, and responsive. Innovation cannot thrive when access to opportunity is this difficult.

[Adekunle Balogun @thisisbalogun]

I'm currently raising funding for Syntonia, and my experience has been frustrating. Many of the public and private organizations established to support startups are either unresponsive, have inaccessible application processes, or provide no feedback at all.

(Former) Trillionaire

The losses were still real, but so was my faith. I restrategized, and kept believing God anyway. That experience made me realize that many atheists may not have lost faith because they never cared, some probably cared deeply and were simply wounded by pain they couldn’t explain.

[Adekunle Balogun @thisisbalogun]

I used to wonder how some people lose faith in God, until life pushed me to a point where disbelief actually sounded reasonable. I lost the four biggest deals of my life, deals that could have completely changed my story. What hurt the most was that none of them even told me...

[Adekunle Balogun @thisisbalogun]

I got on a bicycle and rode around my estate over and over again until midnight, carrying disappointment, confusion, and silence in my chest. Eventually, I went back inside, took a shower, and slept.
The next morning, the heaviness lifted...

When you come from nothing, you move differently.

@jideayegbusi It’s funny, but that’s actually been the case for a long time. It’s just more obvious now. A lot of what we see as “news” has always had some level of sponsorship or influence behind it, we’re just paying closer attention these days.

@theladyjane_ Dare to dream

[Adekunle Balogun @thisisbalogun]

@jideayegbusi True this!

[Adekunle Balogun @thisisbalogun]

Invest in Africa now, fast growth, untapped markets, and rising opportunity.

It very seldom occur to a person that his trouble lies in his self-image or his own evaluation of himself, and so he finds circumstances to prove him otherwise but proves him true.

Imagine if one could build a tech city from scratch🤔, a city that is 90% tech.
