My Nigeria 🇳🇬 The gaslighting of the Igbo people in Nigeria 🇳🇬 in itself is injustice. We grew up hearing and learning that there are 3 major tribes in Nigeria 🇳🇬 yet one of the 3 major tribes have not enjoy governmental privileges for years. Pulling tribal cards when it pays us cannot last! I am not Igbo but GOD hates injustice!!! That’s why GOD will judge all of us except we repent!!

I say this not as an act of flattery but of true respect and honor that @DicksonNsofor has earned my love and respect for life. He is one entrepreneur with deep grassroots impact, I still don’t know why you chose Ajegunle to start but I will love to know.

BREAKING: Gunmen storm Catholic school in Nigeria and kidnap more than 100 children. Early this morning, armed assailants on 60 motorcycles and cars stormed St. Mary’s Catholic Primary and Secondary School in the Papiri community in the Niger State of Nigeria.

Dear Benue State Government, You may deny it publicly, but the mass graves, displaced families, and burning villages tell the truth. Genocide isn’t erased by a press statement. Benue is bleeding, and the world can see it. #BenueUnderAttack #StopTheKillings #nigeria

Was a special moment speaking yesterday at the @thekorahq staff retreat on "Building a Culture of Excellence."  Was there to support and witness the incredible work being done by someone I've watched build and grow over the years @dicksonnsofor, founder and CEO of Korapay! We had a heart to heart session about maintaining integrity, quality, and faith at the highest levels of tech leadership.  I'm immensely proud of the culture Dickson and the Kora Pay team are building. Thank you, @thekorahq, for the invitation. Keep pushing the boundaries of African fintech, fueled by an authentic commitment to excellence.

My friend, @AlikoDangote, your work rate is surreal. 1.4 million barrels per day refining capacity puts Nigeria on the global energy map as a first. This is a rising tide of enterprise that lifts everyone. Congratulations. #theeraofus
