@SIKAOFFICIAL1 To think that the other guy in black literally begged them to round up and leave the stage numerous times and they still insisted on daring the sleeping gods 😂😂🙌

Tragedy struck at Ayanfuri in the Diaso District after Nana Kwabena Okyere, Mmratehene of the Ayanfuri Traditional Area, allegedly shot himself accidentally with a pump-action gun during a funeral ceremony on Friday, 9th May, 2026. According to police reports, the incident occurred during the funeral rites of Abusua Panyin Akwasi Kwateng. The chief sustained a severe gunshot wound to the abdomen and was rushed to the Ayanfuri Pentecost Hospital, where he sadly passed away while receiving treatment. His body has since been deposited at the Dunkwa-On-Offin Municipal Hospital Mortuary as police continue investigations into the incident. [🎥: Mensah Andrews]

CLOWNS using the same PLAYBOOK. Someone tagged me to this nonsense yesterday. You banned Nigeria and called it fraud prevention. Let's be clear about what this actually is. Your own post admits your detection system ran for months before catching a ~95% fraud rate. If your KYC is that strong, why did it take months? You don't get to announce your detection failure and then blame the country. The 95% figure has zero public methodology. No third-party audit. No breakdown of how fraud was defined. No clarity on whether Nigerian users were flagged by the same thresholds as Malaysia or Indonesia. You cannot cite a statistic only you can see and call it evidence. That passport photo proves one person submitted a fake document. Not that 200 million people are fraudsters. WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE. A 22 year old college dropout who built a data harvesting app and dressed it up as fair compensation for the little guy. Look at your own investor list. K5 Global and Founders Fund have co-invested in the same portfolio companies. Founders Fund is the original institutional backer of Palantir. Your other backer, Aglaé Ventures, owned by Bernard Arnault, runs an AI portfolio that intersects directly with the same labs that Palantir's AIP platform integrates with. Nobody is making wild accusations here. We are just reading the room. FOR MY NIGERIANS WHO DO NOT KNOW Here is what that network is actually building. Kled mobilizes hundreds of thousands of gig workers, mostly from the Global South, to upload personal photos, videos, and documents. You convert raw human life into machine readable product. The labs and platforms connected to your investors then take that data and make it actionable for governments, corporations, and in some cases, military operations. Here is why Nigeria specifically matters to this model. The major AI labs are currently being sued by artists, writers, and publishers for stealing data through web scraping. To win those cases, they need to prove they have clean, consented data. Buying a dataset from a platform like Kled, where every user signed a digital consent form in exchange for a few dollars, gives billion dollar tech companies a legal free pass. You are not disrupting anything. You are laundering consent for people with far more power than you. And here is the part nobody is saying out loud. Imagine if a company already under fire for government surveillance and military contracts openly offered to pay people in developing countries to film their homes and daily lives. It would look exactly like what it is. By using smaller startups as the public face, the same data gets collected, the same surveillance infrastructure gets fed, and the powerful names stay clean in the public eye. A 22 year old dropout does not accidentally end up with this investor network. The connections around him tell a very specific story. We are just the ones reading it out loud. This is the same playbook PayPal ran on Nigeria for years. Locked us out. Called us fraudsters. Made us third-class citizens of the internet economy. And when they finally came back, after years of Nigerian developers building workarounds and Nigerian users funding entire ecosystems without them, we had already moved on. We didn't need them. We needed the infrastructure they refused to give us. They did not give it to us and we survived. You will try to re-enter but it will be too late. To MY FELLOW NIGERIANS, Every time a foreign platform exits Nigeria citing fraud, we debate the fraud. We rarely ask why a country of 220 million people with the largest developer community in Africa still does not own the servers, the data centers, or the infrastructure that defines what "legitimate" looks like online. When you don't own your data infrastructure, someone else defines your identity. They decide what counts as fraud. They decide what counts as valid. They hold the receipt and you argue at the door. The answer to Kled is not begging them to return. The answer is owning the pipes. Data centers. Local cloud infrastructure. Payment rails we control. Identity systems we built. Every platform that exits us citing fraud is just showing us what it costs to not own our own infrastructure. That bill keeps compounding. It is time we paid it differently. So that next time, comedians like this will not have the guts to call us fraud without evidence.

@spendexhq all businesses should accept crypto payments

@bitcoinbaddie_ @YangofWeb3 Honestly. It’s quite unique and remarkable. Solving present payment and usage problems.

@Lordkato1 @YangofWeb3 I am just heading about them they are actually building something nice

When it comes to building a crypto brand in Nigeria … Nigerians dont know more than P2P business 💔💔 No more P2P brands please 😭

@AdewaleYusuf_ Congrats Yusuf. Would be great listening to the recordings. I wish I could be in attendance. Cheers to your good works.

I look forward to speaking at the 3i Africa Summit in Accra Ghana this week. If you are in Ghana, let's meet up. #3iAfrica2026

Funding another dream! Just tell me the dream below!

@D3TRIOTT @xtopher0x @spendexhq @solana I don’t think so. Spendex rates are great.

@xtopher0x @spendexhq @solana I heard the rate there isn’t great

@Peter_Soida spendex.co

@artrenoirs Why not just use Spendex? 🤷‍♂️ @spendexhq

Now integrate crypto😭😭

@katie_haun @spendexhq While trillions move on-chain, the real gap is still off-chain usability. That’s the bridge @spendexhq is closing; making crypto easily spendable, practical, and locally relevant.

@katie_haun @spendexhq balances • Near-Zero gas fees • Crypto-powered debit cards for real-world spending • ⁠Spendex Businesses, built for business to accept crypto payments and have funds automatically converted to fiat (should merchant not be conversant with crypto).

Today we’re announcing $1 billion in new funds to back the bold founders shaping the next era of finance and technology. I’ve been following the flow of assets my entire career and have never seen a more dynamic time. Financial infrastructure is being rebuilt from the ground up, new assets and markets are emerging, and an agentic economy is developing as AI agents begin to transact on behalf of humans. These areas, among others, are what will define the coming years as we deploy these new funds. We’re excited for what’s ahead, and wrote about our thesis in the post below.
