Ghanaian YouTuber, Wide Maya, visited an all-white town in South African, where black South Africans are restricted from entering. This isn't like an estate. It is a whole town in SA. I’m curious, why aren't black South Africans triggered by this?✍️

From now henceforth, I will support ANYTHING and believe EVERYTHING ELON MUSK do and say about South Africa 🇿🇦 YOU WILL R£GR£T THIS. I PROMISE YOU

Trending Video of hardworking South Africans looting bread from an immigrant’s truck.

Apparently this man here is Originally from Limpopo. We said after “Foreign Nationals”,… They are coming for those who can’t speak Zulu, Xhosa, Setswana, and Sotho.

Two videos, one country. First video: rowdy black South Africans brandishing medieval weapons like sticks, assegais and shields threatening black immigrants in South Africa. Second video: white South Africans beat the hell out of black South Africans who go on to scatter like sheep I have no comment!

@Shadaya_Knight She sounds like someone that fucked a foreigner and got hurt, we see a lot of these. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

She wanted you to decenter

Now the layer most builders completely ignore. The Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 (NDPA). It replaced the old NDPR. it created the NDPC, Nigeria’s data protection commission, and gave it real teeth. Real teeth means real fines. NDPC fined Fidelity Bank ₦555.8 million in 2024. Four other banks paid roughly ₦400 million combined. Meta paid $220 million.

Cross-border money movement has its own lane entirely. IMTO licences govern remittances. foreign operators need $1M minimum capital. Banks and fintechs cannot hold IMTO licences directly. They can only operate as agents. If your product touches diaspora remittances, this rule is already affecting you.

CBN licenses every serious fintech needs to know: PSP: e-payments, mobile money, internet banking → ₦250M min. capital PSSP: payment gateways, APIs between banks and merchants → ₦100M MMO: electronic wallets, transfers, bill pay → ₦2B escrow deposit PTSP: POS terminal deployment → ₦100M Regulatory Sandbox: for testing novel products under CBN supervision before full launch Pick wrong and you’re operating illegally.

If wishes were horses and I were calling the shots, all states would be connected by rail. Our marine sector would be one of the busiest in the world. Every state will flex its muscles on something they are known for (like China). I will fund local medical research. I believe there is a cure for everything. Our health sector will be so busy. Almost everyone would love to join the military. There will be a safety awareness week once every year where all citizens will participate in drills like fire safety, CPR, etc. There will be an incentive for those studying pro courses like Maritime, Firefighting, Aviation etc... To encourage more people to go for it and help the country produce the best. Farming & agriculture, this sector needs strong structure that will connect them to the international market and also they need a strong safety net. Tourism, Taraba is wasting, Enugu is wasting, Gombe is wasting, Bonny Island is wasting. Many places in Nigeria are wasting. Like i stated earlier, if wishes were horses, 🙂.

There are three ministries in Nigeria that, if they truly worked together, could make life easier for Nigerians while generating billions of dollars in revenue every year. But for that to happen, we need leaders who are willing to put Nigeria first. The three ministries are: 1. Federal Ministry of Transportation 2. Federal Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy 3. Federal Ministry of Art, Culture, Tourism, and Creative Economy These ministries control sectors that could make Nigeria feel like heaven on earth. Take tourism for example. Nigeria’s tourism industry contributes roughly $4–5 billion annually. Now compare that with the Philippines, where tourism generates close to $100 billion every year. Yet Nigeria has more cultural diversity, more festivals, a globally influential music industry, and one of the largest film industries in the world. Now look at the maritime sector. The Philippines earns roughly $16–25 billion annually from maritime and ocean industries. Nigeria earns about $6–8 billion. Yet Nigeria has the largest port economy in West Africa, massive oil shipping activity, a long Atlantic coastline, and one of the biggest consumer markets in Africa The opportunity is there… but corruption and poor coordination continue to slow progress. The last time I visited the Philippines, I traveled from Manila to Cebu, then to Bohol, and back to Manila on a Ro-Pax vessel. That journey made me imagine how transformative such a system could be in Nigeria. Nigeria has eight coastal states that touch the Atlantic Ocean: • Lagos State • Ogun State • Ondo State • Delta State • Bayelsa State • Rivers State • Akwa Ibom State • Cross River State In addition, several inland states are connected to the ocean through river systems flowing into the Niger Delta, including: • Anambra State • Edo State • Benue State • Niger State • Kogi State If Nigeria fully developed inland water transport, cargo and passengers could move by boat from inland states like Kogi, Anambra, and Benue to coastal cities. A Ro-Pax vessel earns from two main streams: • passenger tickets • vehicle and cargo transport (cars, buses, trucks) A typical medium Ro-Pax ferry carries: • 800–1000 passengers • 150–200 vehicles per trip Now imagine Nigeria building 10 major Ro-Pax routes across its rivers and coastline, operating about 20 vessels. Routes could include: • Onitsha to Port Harcourt • Warri to Lagos • Lokoja to Delta State Each vessel could generate tens of millions of dollars annually. Across the network, that is over $600 million in direct revenue every year. Once tourism, logistics, port activity, hotels, restaurants, and trade are factored in, the total economic value could exceed $2.4 billion annually. And guess what? With this, we have reduced pressure on highways, lower logistics costs, reduced congestion at airports, and created thousands of jobs. Countries like the Philippines and Norway use Ro-Pax ferry networks as national transport infrastructure. Now imagine Nigeria expanding that vision further. Imagine tourism and waterway agreements with other West African countries. • Lagos to Tema in Ghana • Benin Republic to Bonny Island • Coastal ferry routes across the Gulf of Guinea The opportunities are PLENTY. We have the resources. We have the geography. What we need is leadership that puts the country first. Because with the right vision and the right people in government, Nigeria can truly become heaven on earth. The funds we spend on presidential yachts, unnecessary renovations, or buying cars for judges, etc could build infrastructure that benefits millions of Nigerians. But we have leaders who are blind to this. Selfish leaders. Nigeria is supposed to be a 1st world country. The attached picture is what a ro-pax vessel looks like. It accommodates both passengers and cars/trucks, etc.

@therealmissjo You're describing the full roadmap. Onshore to H-1B, H-1B to offshore, offshore to automated. Each transition saves 20-40% per role. We are currently on step two. That is globalisation with a timeline.

@skeptic_ape @MAGAB07910508 The prohibition you're describing would require amending the Immigration and Nationality Act. The current law requires a Labor Condition Application, which we file. The DOL approves it. The system you want to change is the system we followed. That is compliance.

@u_ringingbells The training is the transition. The transition is the restructuring. The restructuring frees $8 to $10 billion in annual cash flow. The people doing the training are not the beneficiaries. That is workforce economics.

@neuralamp4ever We considered a cooling-off period model. Then we realized if you fire 30,000 in January and file 3,126 petitions in February, technically those are different quarters. That is workforce planning.

I am the VP of Workforce Economics at Oracle. We are worth $420 billion. On Tuesday, we sent 30,000 employees a termination email at 6 AM. Not 9. Not business hours. Six in the morning. They woke up to the word "eliminated." The email came from "Oracle Leadership." Not a manager. Not a name. Oracle Leadership. It said: "We are grateful for your dedication, hard work, and the impact you have made." By the time they read the word "grateful," their access to email, files, and Slack had already been revoked. The gratitude was the last Oracle communication they received. We did not eliminate the roles. We eliminated the salaries. In the same fiscal year, we filed 3,126 H-1B petitions to hire foreign workers. 436 this year alone. The roles are identical. The pay is not. An H-1B software engineer earns $87,000. The domestic median for the same work is $106,000. Eighty-three percent of H-1B workers are classified at entry-level wages for senior positions. The industry calls this a skills gap. It is a pay cut that requires a passport. The visa is tied to the employer. If the worker leaves, they lose their legal right to remain in the country. If they negotiate, they risk the same. If they organize, the sponsor declines to renew. That is retention. Our revenue this quarter is $17.2 billion. Up 22%. Net income up 95%. We have $553 billion in committed future contracts. Up 325%. These are not the numbers of a company that needs to lay anyone off. We took a $2.1 billion restructuring charge. That is the cost of the gratitude. It frees up $8 to $10 billion in annual cash flow. That cash services $156 billion in AI data centers we are building. Starting 2028, OpenAI pays us $82 million per day. Larry Ellison is worth $189 billion. He pledged $51 billion in Oracle shares as collateral for the Stargate AI venture. Announced at the White House. The stock rose 4% on Tuesday. The day of the 6 AM emails. Wall Street did not see 30,000 people. They saw the margin. Amazon laid off 30,000 since October. Filed thousands of H-1B petitions in the same window. This is not one company. This is the operating model. Fire the salary. Keep the role. Fill it with someone whose legal right to remain in the country depends on your continued sponsorship. Pay them less. They will not complain. They cannot. One employee's father worked at Oracle for 20 years. No phone call. No meeting. An email at 6 AM and a locked laptop. The role is still open. The people we fired are free. The people we hired are not.

I get why your tweet sounds convincing, but it oversimplifies a lot. Well Here’s a grounded pushback: First, the “Nigeria is #1” claim needs context. High stablecoin ownership doesn’t automatically mean dominance, it often reflects economic pressure, not preference. People turn to USDT/USDC because the naira is unstable, not because Nigeria is leading global crypto innovation. Second, saying “they can’t use their USDT to buy anything” is outdated. It’s not perfect, but it’s not true either. In cities like Lagos, people already: Pay freelancers and remote workers in USDT Trade peer-to-peer for goods and services Use crypto debit cards and informal merchant networks It’s messy, yes but not nonexistent. Third, the “infrastructure problem” argument ignores reality. The rails don’t “exist everywhere” in a usable way. On/off-ramps, regulation, and trust issues are still major barriers. Even in places like San Francisco or Singapore, stablecoin payments aren’t mainstream for everyday spending either. Fourth, the post frames this like a missing billing layer is the only issue. It’s not. The real problems are: Volatility fears (even with “stable” coins) Regulatory uncertainty (especially in Nigeria) User education and scams Limited real-world merchant demand Finally, the biggest flaw: it romanticizes the situation. People aren’t holding stablecoins because it’s empowering, they’re doing it because they’re trying to escape a failing currency system. That’s survival, not adoption success. A more honest take would be: Nigeria isn’t leading because it’s ahead, it’s leading because it’s under pressure. And until stablecoins become easier to spend than cash, this gap won’t be solved by just “building a billing layer.” Thank you. @ishiguzochris
