There was a time I was on a warpath here with GTBank and even built a website to mock them for missing funds that I still have not received an acceptable explanation for.
I was also here to thank them for saving my butt during the NIN deadline crisis, where I had issues with Glo. I also thanked people in Glo after resolving my crisis.
I still use both GTBank and Glo despite their flaws. This is because their benefits outweigh their issues, and taking the time to solve my problem endeared me to both of them.
Being in a bad place with both of them was tough for me, and I lashed out instinctively to inflict pain in return. They didn't react negatively but made sure my problem was solved. That is why I remained a customer.
As for Radisson Blu Anchorage in Lagos, they lied and ignored me. I have slowly and deliberately deprived them of any income that would have come from me or those I have anything to do with.
On my last visit to Nigeria, I informed the organization that booked the hotel I wasn't staying there, and they changed it. Major corporations have changed their meeting venues there because I insisted. I will keep insisting, as it was a matter of life and death. I could have died there. This beef is now generational as my children will inherit it.
Ignoring issues can cost you a whole lot more. I am a dispassionate mofo when it comes to bad service.

This 1-hour conversation taught me more than years of doomscrolling ever did.
Thank you sir, @taadelodun

During that 2017 Monaco golden era, teams went there to get players, Liverpool picked Fabinho, PSG picked Mbappe, man city picked Bernardo Silva, guess who Chelsea picked 😭 😭

If you’re a sharp young person in Nigeria thinking of starting something (doesn’t have to be tech), let me give you the honest version I wish someone had dropped for me.
They didn’t explain how badly startup founders need help with LinkedIn. Or how much real buying power, investors, partners, decision-makers, is sitting on that one platform. And nobody showed me what it actually looks like to turn this into a proper business.
I help founders show up consistently on LinkedIn. I write their posts, shape their positioning, and build their thought leadership so they stop scrolling past and start getting real inbound: investor DMs, partnership talks, sales calls, podcast invites, and warm intros they’ve been chasing for months.
Here’s the exact process if you want to start this kind of business yourself:
1. Finding clients:
- Look for recently funded seed-stage startups on Crunchbase, Tracxn, the Y Combinator, StartupList Africa, or follow local funding news on TechCabal and Africa: The Big Deal.
- Focus on founders who have open content or growth roles. These ones already know content works, you’re not begging them to try LinkedIn, you’re solving a headache they’re already feeling.
- Always start with a 2-week trial. It’s the easiest way to get your foot in the door without pressure.
2. Doing the actual work:
- Have a proper ~45-minute content interview with the founder every week. Don’t guess what’s in their head. Come prepared with smart prompts and ask for their honest take on recent news in their industry.
- Spend 80% of your energy crafting a strong hook. Seriously. If nobody clicks “see more,” the rest of the post doesn’t matter. Use social proof and create that curiosity gap that makes people stop scrolling.
- Keep two types of posts in rotation:
– Reach posts: company wins, hiring updates, behind-the-scenes of building the thing.
– Bottom-funnel posts: deep product content, strong industry takes, and messages crafted directly for their ideal customer (ICP).
The truth? LinkedIn remains the place where serious money and opportunities concentrate. Most founders know this, but they’re too busy building the actual product to show up properly.
That gap? That’s where the business sits.
If you’re in Nigeria or anywhere in Africa and you can write well, understand startups even a little, and you’re willing to learn fast, this is one quiet but powerful way to build something real from your laptop.
Rooting for you ❤️.

In fact, the Nazis were so popular in America that there was a rally in support of the Nazis in New York before the war spiraled out of control.

@Mayoveli was reading the other day that Nazi germany took huge inspiration from Jim Crowe America to form majority of its laws. this was brought up in the nurnberg trials, they even gave evidence of Supreme Court judgements showing the precedent they were following stems from America

This is the Part 1 of a series I am doing on Kelvin Ayebaefie Emmanuel. A rather interesting figure with a well-documented track record of misrepresentation, intimidation, and obtaining money under false pretense.
What’s particularly troubling is the role media companies like @ARISEtv and @channelstv continues to play in amplifying his voice. Repeatedly platforming him on key issues and, in the process, lending him a sense of credibility he arguably hasn’t earned making it easy for him to scheme his next set of victims.
The goal of this series is simple: to put the information out there, in one place, so people can make informed decisions and avoid becoming victims of whatever comes next.
Happy reading!
