@Millishield01 Not a bad concept but without💡this becomes a 🐶 house.

I am looking to partner with 100 home owners in Lagos that has space at the back of their fully fenced homes.... I will produce this portable cabin for Airbnb and we have a sharing formula. Kindly help fine-tune this idea. Note- it will be built in a way to ensure adequate ventilation without even AC....video is just for illustrations.

Mr. David Hundeyin: While I understand your position here, you are entirely too harsh on the poor masses in Nigeria in whose name you are supposedly fighting for. Yes, it is undeniably true that many Nigerians do not see the bigger picture. They do not see how foreign corporations are funding the insecurity currently ravaging the North, how the IMF and World Bank are basically boardroom terror organizations destroying the economy of the Global South, or how the Nigerian government only serves the vile interests of a select few elites and their puppet masters in Western capitals. All of this is true, but what is equally true is this: it is not this poor majority that will change this country. This may seem counterintuitive, as the poor are the ones feeling the crushing weight of a dwindling economy, hyperinflation, and an epileptic power grid. But as Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels outlined in lovely book "The Communist Manifesto", a true change in government can only happen when the classes of society hold hands and unite under a common umbrella. The poor and uneducated form the overwhelming majority of society and obviously possess the brute muscle to pressure the system. However, they cannot articulate a well-structured plan, they cannot write manifestos, and they cannot understand the complex logistics required to sustain a massive protest. They lack the financial war chest to fund a prolonged struggle, the legal expertise to bail out captured comrades, the media expertise to combat vicious state propaganda, and the strategic foresight to negotiate terms when the ruling class is finally brought to its knees. The Hollywood theater of poor people carrying pitchforks to overthrow their government is pure, delusional fantasy. An oppressive regime will always have a police force and a military that are heavily armed, well-trained, and eager to shoot live ammunition at protesters. Drawing again from the works of Marx and Engels and their studies on class struggle, the fundamental catalyst that brings to light any true revolutionary movement must start with the Middle Class (the Bourgeoisie/Intelligentsia). The middle class is educated; they possess the knowledge to decode complex geopolitics and translate it into simpler terms for the average farmer to understand, just as Thomas Sankara did in Burkina Faso. The middle class has the resources and the time on their hands to properly coordinate protests and build formidable intelligence networks. They can outsource the technology to bypass government censorship, they have the international connections to expose human rights abuses to the global stage, and they possess the ideological backbone required to turn disorganized public anger into a lethal, targeted political weapon. The most famous revolutionary movements in history like the French Revolution, the Russian Revolution, and the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran, were all ruthlessly and carefully planned and organized by educated, wealthy, middle-class citizens. Even Fidel Castro of Cuba came from a wealthy family, and his father owned a robust sugar business. Yet, even when the lower and middle classes unite, the upper class and the military still hold all the cards. Even the celebrated 1979 Iranian Revolution was only successful because factions within the military and the government decided to commit mutiny and flat-out refused to protect the Shah. If impoverished Nigerians were to relinquish their daily survival hustle and storm the streets en masse to protest against the government, what do you think will happen? Just like ENDSARS, the state will wait for the cover of night, turn off the lights, and gun down unarmed protesters in cold blood. Then, their puppet masters in the Global North will instantly provide them with diplomatic cover, and the rest of humanity will simply move on. Therefore, the struggling masses do not need to understand your complex geopolitics for a revolution to happen. If the comfortable, educated elite(who claim to know it all) do not get off their high horses and join forces to mobilize the streets, absolutely nothing will change. A revolution does not happen in a vacuum; it requires a spark forged by intellectuals, fueled by the fury of the poor, and executed with ruthless, unwavering precision. Until the educated middle class is willing to sacrifice its comfort, weaponize its privileges, and bleed alongside the common man they so eagerly criticize, you're basically tweeting into oblivion.

@stefanos and @paulabadosa need each other more than ever.

This baby has to be at least 90% South African 🇿🇦

Impressive 👏🏾

As humorous as it is true.

At 23, with no prior experience, I turned this dilapidated building into Nigeria’s first offgrid hospital. Here’s how (5 principles) 🧵: 📍 Enugu, Nigeria

A true Hero✊🏾

I have a secret to share After your first $2–$3 million, a paid off home and a good car, there is no difference in quality of life between you and Jeff Bezos. Both of you have limited amount of time on earth; you have twice if not more than Jeff, so you are richer than him. A cheeseburger is a cheeseburger whether a billionaire eats or you do. Money is nothing but a piece of paper or a number in your app. Real life is outdoors. Become financially independent; that’s usually 2–3mil. Have good food. Enjoy the relations. Workout. Sleep well. Call your parents. That’s all there is to life. Greed has no end. Repeat after me: Time is the currency of life. Money is not. Sooner you figure this out, happier you will be.

Stories such as this ought to be written in our native language(s), that way, non-natives would neither read nor translate.

How the heck did the US get away with the worst mass slaughter of school children in history, without the whole world condemning them?

This might be the reason Lagos buses have mostly iron seats.

And that’s half the story, cause they’d all still travel to Nigeria early enough to able to file out and welcome the President back to Nigeria from the same trip they were all part of.

Nothing prepared me for the last word.

@IamJustNneka @Allezamani Salient questions raised. Unfortunately, he won’t respond this year.

Their cars are brand new. Can you afford the brand new variant of the accidented cars you people drive as Tokunbo in Nigeria? Does your government subsidize their production in anyway? Do they get reduced interest rates on their loans, or special power subsidies? Have they received any government bailouts like their auto counterparts in other countries? What right do you have to be disappointed in them?

I’m highly disappointed in Innoson motors. That’s all I have to say.

@_OvalDesigns A thing called ‘high maintenance’

Look at what Nigerians call Mansion, they added gigantic to it oh... My problem is not with the house but the compound itself, what stops you from having a beautiful compound like these below. We need to do better. Don't forget to go green 🌿 today

@hasbol01 @sentinelprince Emphasis on “should they remain in Nigeria”

@sentinelprince The kuli kuli guys will determine what happens to the Olympiad winners should they remain in Nigeria.

One part of the country, students are doing computer-based mathematics Olympiad. In the same country, another part, children are taking garrin and kuli kuli provided by their government. The divide is truly astonishing (derogatory).

Dear @realDonaldTrump When an assassination attempt was made on your life, the world rightly condemned it as an attack on democracy. Today, there has been an attempt on the life of @PeterObi, widely regarded as a leading presidential candidate and the people’s choice in Nigeria. We respectfully urge you and members of the U.S. Congress to pay attention and speak up. Political violence, anywhere in the world, must never be normalized or ignored. Nigeria is treading a dangerous path that could sink its democracy.
