Another way to know weak arguments is when folks continue shifting their point without acknowledging it. And empirically, the point they eventually anchor on is the most polarizing one because the goal isn’t to make a good argument, it’s to get attention.

My takeaway is that many people don’t actually know how to articulate themselves. I see words being used that mean a certain thing, but the conclusion the poster arrives at with the words makes no sense. A lot of the arguments have poor premises. And people are generalizing to broad negative statements when they mean a specific thing. We should do better please.

@darasoba You're referring to penetration, I'm talking about scale. Maybe you should start with definition of terms.

Tosin is not a scaler 😂 Y’all are just bold 😂. No Nigerian fintech has ever achieved the level of penetration he has. You can call him out and still respect the level of work he has done at the same time. Try it sometime.

If it were the case that they didn't have the money to pay up, it's understandable. Bro, they have the money, they have massive funding. Why not just pay up and stop all the Ted talks? @paystack and @Andela were 2 of 2 mahn. I still remember the Andela bootcamp where guys are still doing exploits till date. Tosin is a builder, but probably not a scaler. He needs someone that should work on this next level of Moniepoint's growth. Talking about "hookup culture" like a retired beer parlour gossip isn't what is expected of a Unicorn Founder. Just chew the humble pie biko.

If you’re going to push for someone to get dragged, at least make it a sound argument.

This tweet argues the following: 1. Nigerian employers don’t contribute anything to the talent ecosystem except complaints. 2. Because of 1, Nigerian employers are bottom barrel. 3. Because of 2, drag the Moniepoint CEO. 4. 3 assumes the Moniepoint CEO is bottom barrel because premise 1 is assumed to apply to him/his company. But 4 is _evidently_ false because they employ thousands of people and they have at least 2 programs targeted at building budding talent.

I need them to drag that moniepoint CEO well because naija employers are bottom barrel, they don't contribute anything to the talent ecosystem except complaints.

@s1ntaxe770r @Risevest Not even sure how to complain. If I find an app doing similar things with a better experience, I’m probably moving.

@Risevest's in-app support system and USD deposit flow could be better. Sometimes I have a good experience, sometimes I have a really frustrating experience.

Consistency mehn Most people don't have the discipline and this is what separates people walahi. Go and check the greatest in your field Jefferson the Founding father and the 3rd president of america , in his letter to John Adams, identified a natural aristocracy among men, founded on virtue and talents distinct from the artificial aristocracy of wealth and privilege. I would say discipline, whether positive or negative, is the true separator. Highly Successful people are consistent. And to Jefferson's point, you cannot cultivate any virtue or talent without discipline.

On April 28, 2026, I defended my PhD at Harvard. I’m still in awe—of the moment and its meaning, the community that held me, and the grace that made it possible. God who began the good work carried it through. And I am so grateful for this. #dream #phd #harvard #journey #grace
