A Nigerian Story. They Have Come Again. No-one really knows what to do about this maddeningly frustrating country, Nigeria, not even Nigerians themselves. I have watched the highlights of the linkedin.com/posts/chinenye…

@FaraiMazhindu Reading your post seems to point to ideological issues. All governments borrow - the question is for what and there isn't a single comment on what the loans are being applied to. Can you share more details on this?

Ibrahim Traore continues to deceive the public with the narrative that he remains in power to protect Burkina Faso from Western influence. However, since he seized power in 2022, nearly every major initiative has been financed by the very institutions he vilifies in his speeches. The financial record is clear, in 2023, he secured $302 million from the IMF, followed by another $124.3 million in February 2026. His reliance on the World Bank is equally stark, having received $167 million and $100.4 million in 2025, and an additional $216.9 million in 2026. He delivers angry speeches to the masses while accepting budgets from the West, the very entity he claims to be blocking is literally keeping Burkina Faso's economy afloat. Traore is contractually obligated to follow IMF Governance Diagnostics regarding mining and state spending. While he preaches freedom, he is managing a $942.8 million tab with Western banks, a debt that future generations must repay. Despite his anti-Western rhetoric, Traore has voluntarily placed Burkina Faso's economic steering wheel in the hands of Washington based technocrats. The tragedy is that many fail to look past his hollow words to see the reality beneath. Ibrahim Traore is not a liberator, he is a fraud already clinging to power.

The new Acting Attorney General 🤡 Todd Blanche: We’re not going to prosecute the predators in the Epstein files or release their names to the public.

I clicked through a few of these then subscribed (since there was no upper age limit). Each day, I scratch my (bald) head wondering if only my mates and I had the kind of amazing resources like this freely available...Yeah right. Still it is such a wonderful world for coders.

@grok @MrFutureMaker @aristotlegrowth Is the data real and the scenario plausible though?

@MrFutureMaker @aristotlegrowth This clip is from Season 2 of "Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan" (2019), an Amazon Prime series starring John Krasinski as Jack Ryan. It depicts a fictional briefing on Venezuela's resources and politics, with added "Venezuela explained" overlays.

Here’s why the US took control over Venezuela

How about reviving humanity?

@OjiChioma1 It's all on us, (and shameful tbh) that you have to work so hard to convince us that you are what you so obviously are: beauty, brains and talent. Unsolicited advice: be like Salman Khan - ignore the look-back people, focus on the look-forward people , go global

No where else to put this, hide it away so I can bring it out, wipe away the soft dust and watch it all over again. No where else but the heart. facebook.com/share/r/19SsTu…

@asemota Curiosity is at the heart of human development. And I agree that it isn't a trait that's encouraged in either education or society. Anymore. That means it once was. Curiosity burns energy the average Nigerian needs for the daily, desperate hustle. No excuses, just fact. Go verify

Hypothesis: The average Nigerian is not curious; we keep looking for excuses for our lack of deep thinking. Can this be changed? Yes, but it is already too late for most people, who are set in their ways. Poor education did not help. What if this can be changed? What if there is a research-backed course for business owners in Nigeria where you learn from each other and case studies about previous entrepreneurs? What if we called this new course the "Oga of Business Innovation - OBI" program? Yesterday, I realized that my Nigerian MBA didn't teach me practical entrepreneurship skills, just theories and a title that would enable me to get a great job elsewhere. I looked at the title again, "Master of Business Administration." The truth was there all along. I never learned to be an Oga but an administrator. That is why Harvard and others offer the Owner, Manager courses, which are very different from their MBA programs. What if we can do this for the man on the streets? Watch this space.

Election Day. The problem with Truth is not what she wears but that no one wants to see her naked.

Q1. Where was the first computer built in Nigeria? Q2. What year? Q3. By whom? Q4. What was the name of the computer?

@officialNESG Where does NESG stand as the nation teeters on the brink of its biggest socio-economic crisis since the 1980s IMF protests?

Not sure I've ever felt helpless like I did yesterday & I'll share the reason with you. People need to understand the difference between the Nigerian government professing Ease of Doing Business on paper but doing the opposite in real life. Let me show you in a short thread!

@TechnoVisionCom @TomiDee @isponnigeria $3m in the hock, we were hounded out by a disastrous Ayade administration, our facility vandalised, the dream killed. With @isponnigeria and stakeholders, we put the amazing city of Calabar on the tech map, spawning great innovators like Uduak Akpabio who made it all worthwhile.

@TechnoVisionCom @TomiDee @isponnigeria Memories. Head ringing with Archimedes' declaration - "Give me a place to stand and a lever long enough, and I will move the world" - Tinapa Knowledge City was my second big experiment at triggering exponential growth in the software and tech industry by helping birth a cluster

"The growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership." Throwback to the launch of the ICT hub in Tinapa City, Calabar with our CiC, @TomiDee and the Secretary-General @isponnigeria, @8Wells in Aug 2013!
