anyone using hetzner or any vps? im concerned my response time will drop because of distance will the latency be manageable? if it wont, Is there any workaround for this that won't require me to get another server?

@moniepointng I see you. Great this is coming to your attention. Let's know how to manage the talent situation in an objective way, not to disparage the diamonds within the Nigerian ecosystem waiting to be discovered.

Went to bro's Github profile to see some amazing code, this one he posted his Github link on his bio. Na motivational speech first blind my eyes. Followed by tutorial. You should have just built an LMS to teach us bro. Please nau. You're really not there yet.

this guy didn’t say anything bad he was just wrong, instead of raining insults and making him feel inferior why don’t you just use that energy to correct him

Yusuf Datti dn scatter the table way remain oo He said that the North won’t back Peter Obi/Kwakansko ticket, lists some criteria that the former Kano state governor is higher than Obi, says Obi let him down by decamping from Labour Party Infact, take a listen o

Thanks for taking the time to explain your position in this conversation in detail, but I couldn't help but notice your repeated references to talent residing in Nigeria. Why do you think talented individuals who are at a certain level do not want to remain resident in Nigeria? Maybe by answering that question, you could find answers in a shorter time frame than one decade. Nigeria is a difficult place to live and work in. If people have a choice, they would rather leave. I had the choice and left. I still do a lot of work in Nigeria and serve on boards there, but I cannot live there anymore. It is about where people want to live and work, and their quality of life, more than the remuneration. People in Europe are paid considerably less than those in America, yet they remain in Europe rather than migrate to America. This is why people misunderstand the reason for the current mass migration of Nigerian talent. I moved to Ghana instead of Europe and built a team to support Africa from there because it was a place where I could work and live a normal life. We had a diverse team from multiple African countries who would travel briefly to work at client locations, then return home, but the Nigerians typically wanted to avoid Nigeria, as I did, for obvious reasons. The problem is beyond Moniepoint and beyond the talent pipeline. We trained 120,000 tech professionals at Edo Innovates, but they all left because they didn't want to live in Edo State. Nigeria can keep investing in training talent, but they will keep leaving unless the problem of living conditions is addressed. Poor healthcare was what eventually forced me out of Nigeria, and after I left, I found productivity. If we want to grow world-class companies from Nigeria with world-class talent, we should ensure they don't have to endure third-world living conditions. This is the toughest part, and the truth is that many founders building venture-backed companies have their families residing outside Nigeria. I cannot be living in Ghana and complaining that people don't want to live in Nigeria. I decided to create a more flexible company that would let people live where they want. This is going to increasingly become our reality until something drastic changes our trajectory.

Fellow Nigerians, good morning. I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you. Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances. We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal. More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism. We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power. Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise. Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them. However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building. Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated. And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions. There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline? Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from. Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Ghana has rejected a $109m US health deal over data protection concerns. Zimbabwe has also turned down a similar offer. The BBC’s Thomas Naadi explains why some African nations are pushing back.

Hi @eldivine the transition was smooth on my end. However, some useful information I often check on the old Chaka app has disappeared. Order history and transaction history all blank. Not sure if this was intentional with the migration but it would be nice to have those back.

Nigeria is a lawless country.

Just found out it is also on Google App Store.

Is there plans for android?

Until somebody drop epon for tl that’s when this whole trend will scatter.

😭😭

Why is Nigeria is still charging Kenyans ~$80 for a single entry visa even though Kenya is visa-free for all Nigerians (and all* Africans)? Is it time to match their energy and reintroduce visas for them?

Dating in Nigeria has always come with expectations, but as inflation rises and the cost of living climbs, love is becoming noticeably more expensive.
