I strongly dislike Nigerian "hustle" culture. The end game is always money. Not meaning, legacy or anything that outlives you.

There are more flaws in Noah’s flood story than in most of the Bible put together. It doesn’t expose science, it exposes how little ancient writers understood about the world. They say the whole Earth was covered in water, even mountains. Simple question: where did all that water come from, and where did it disappear to after? Earth isn’t hiding extra oceans in a basement. Then forty days of nonstop rain somehow floods the planet. Rain doesn’t work like magic. If that much water came from the sky, the heat and pressure alone would turn the world into chaos. Then one wooden boat holds every animal. Think about that for two seconds: lions, elephants, birds, snakes, insects, cows, termites, pandas, parasites, all in one boat. Food, water, cages, waste, disease, fighting, cleaning. Eight people handling that is comedy, not history. Then after the flood, every animal spreads back across the world. So kangaroos hopped to Australia, penguins waddled to Antarctica, sloths crawled to South America, and none of them left clear traces on the way? Ridiculous! Then plants somehow survive months underwater. Forests drowned, crops ruined, land destroyed, but animals step off the boat to a ready-made buffet? Then two of each animal restart whole species. That means extreme inbreeding from day one. Anyone who knows basic breeding knows that’s a disaster plan, not a survival plan. Then fish are expected to survive too, while freshwater mixes with saltwater across the whole planet. Many species would die fast. And if a worldwide flood happened recently, Earth should show one giant mud layer everywhere. It doesn’t. So the real lesson is simple: Noah’s flood sounds exactly like what ancient people with zero knowledge of weather, biology, geography, or common sense would write. It’s not history. It’s mythology dressed up as fact.

It’s a museum ooo for crying out loud, like a public space for art exhibitions where people just pass by and hang out. What’s so special about playing chess in front public facility? Like chess like book anybody can walk into this museum and perform anything which doesn’t make it special in anyway. Imagine me walking into the museum and picking up a book to read, then telling Nigerians “I’m the first Nigerian to read a book at the world most prestigious Lovren Museum in France”. Ah, and Nigerians are everywhere mounting congratulations in the comment section just for sitting in front of museum, wearing Agbada in public space to play chess. This is so lame, no disrespect ooo, but plenty people in Nigeria have lost their sense of value. If this video sends celebration signals to you. 😭😭😭😭

Let me see. You have a story in a book (Bible) that was translated and re translated countless times. But, you, as a Muslim, decided that the Quran got the story wrong and it was something that made you leave Islam? Okay, got it. However, the Bible is known to have countless contradictory claims and retelling of stories that don't match each others (Quran has nothing to do with it. Let me give you few examples: ​Old Testament ​The Two Creations (Genesis 1 vs. Genesis 2): In Genesis 1, animals are created before humans; in Genesis 2, man is created, then animals, then woman. ​The Flood Tally (Genesis 6 vs. Genesis 7): One verse commands taking two of every animal; another commands seven pairs of clean animals and one pair of unclean. ​The Census Instigator (2 Samuel 24 vs. 1 Chronicles 21): One account says God moved David to take a census; the other says Satan did it. ​Saul’s Death (1 Samuel 31 vs. 2 Samuel 1): One version records Saul committing suicide by falling on his sword; the other records an Amalekite killing him at his request. ​Goliath’s Killer (1 Samuel 17 vs. 2 Samuel 21): The famous story credits David with killing Goliath; a later verse credits a man named Elhanan with killing Goliath the Gittite. ​Saul and David’s Introduction (1 Samuel 16 vs. 17): In chapter 16, David is Saul's personal musician and armor-bearer; in chapter 17, Saul has no idea who David is when he goes to fight Goliath. ​New Testament ​The Fate of Judas (Matthew 27 vs. Acts 1): Matthew says Judas hanged himself out of remorse; Acts says he bought a field and tripped, causing his body to burst open. ​The Genealogy of Jesus (Matthew 1 vs. Luke 3): Both provide lineages through Joseph, but the names and number of generations differ significantly (e.g., Joseph's father is Jacob in one and Heli in the other). ​The Centurion’s Request (Matthew 8 vs. Luke 7): In Matthew, the Centurion comes in person to talk to Jesus; in Luke, he sends Jewish elders to speak on his behalf. ​The Passover Timing (Mark vs. John): In the Synoptic Gospels (Mark), the Last Supper is the Passover meal; in John, Jesus is crucified before the Passover meal has begun. ​The Resurrection Witnesses: The four Gospels vary on who went to the tomb (Mary Magdalene alone vs. several women) and whether they saw one man, two men, or an angel. This is the book you want us to believe over the Quran and I am not even considering the interpretations that says the two accounts don't contradict each other? No thanks.

Let’s be real for a second before anyone opens their mouth to hate, they should probably check what they’ve actually done with their own life first. Tunde Onakoya isn’t just “a chess guy.” He’s someone who took a skill he learned in a barber shop and turned it into a movement that’s changing lives. He’s the founder of Chess in Slums Africa…..a project that uses chess as a tool to get kids off the streets and into classrooms. Not theory. Not tweets. Actual impact. Let’s talk facts: >He set a Guinness World Records record with a 60-hour chess marathon in Times Square >Has helped over 10,000 children access education and better opportunities >Secured scholarships for kids who had zero chance before >Runs outreach programs in places most people wouldn’t even step foot in >Ranked among Nigeria’s top chess players >Won major chess competitions >Featured on global platforms like CNN and BBC >Recognized as a top social entrepreneur in Africa >Listed among the most impactful Africans >Uses his platform to raise funds and awareness for education across the continent Now here’s the part people don’t like hearing. Social media especially platforms like 𝕏 is filled with people who: •Have never built anything • Have never helped anyone • Have never taken a real risk …but somehow have the loudest opinions. You’ll see someone literally changing lives, and the replies will still be: “Nobody cares” “This is overrated” “Clout chasing” etc And it’s like… okay. Because the truth is simple: It’s easier to tweet than to build. It’s easier to criticize than to contribute. It’s easier to sit back than to sacrifice. Someone like Tunde is out here doing real work…impacting real people…while a lot of the noise comes from people who haven’t even tried to do anything meaningful. One thing I’ve learnt from my time on this platform is to take a lot of these so called “criticism” with a pinch of salt. Not all opinions are equal. And not everyone deserves a seat at the table of your self doubt. If you’re building something…whether it’s tech, cybersecurity, content, whatever….just keep going. Because visibility attracts noise. And most of that noise? It’s coming from people who wouldn’t last a day doing what you do.

To him that has more shall be given.

Of course it’s tongue in cheek, but it’s also true(Except another Nigerian comes to debunk it with actual proof which is very unlikely). And you can’t go to the Louvre with a camera crew, a chess board and have people wait in a line to play you without getting booted by security. You need permission to do that. Now whether it’s a big deal or not shouldn’t depend on what an irrelevant racist says. Regardless, the fit is regal and it’s great promotion for chess and culture.

Proudly Nigerian 🇳🇬😎

Haha. It’s just noise as usual . I embrace both the hate and the love, it gives philosophical balance It doesn’t in any way deter me from doing the work that I love and sharing my culture and passion for chess with the world. Some people will not like it, but they will witness it

First Nigerian to play chess at the Louvre 🇫🇷-The world’s most prestigious museum.
