Throwback to when I built this with Flutter and Arduino. #flutter #arduino #robotics

The Arsenal bible group reveal as they win the English Premier League. Great to see athletes being focal about their faith in Jesus.

#TechAdvocay 🇬🇭: Ghana should be building Africa’s next generation of tech giants. Instead, we are debating whether software developers, startup founders, cybersecurity professionals, AI engineers, and freelancers need government approval to work. If this #NITADraftBill2025 passes in its current form, it could become one of the most dangerous policy mistakes in Ghana’s digital history. 1️⃣. Let’s call this what it is: A Bill that risks turning innovation into permission. A young Ghanaian with a laptop, internet connection, and coding skills may now face certification barriers just to participate in the digital economy. 2️⃣. Section 46 of the NITA Draft Bill says no person can be appointed as an ICT professional in a public or private institution unless certified by the Authority. So now government wants to decide who is “qualified” to work in tech? That should scare every young Ghanaian. 3️⃣ Tech does not work like traditional bureaucracy. Some of the best developers in the world are self-taught. Some learned from YouTube. Some learned from GitHub. Some started from internet cafés. Innovation has never depended on permission slips. 4️⃣ Which major African tech ecosystem became successful through state licensing of developers? Not Nigeria 🇳🇬 Not Kenya 🇰🇪 Not Rwanda 🇷🇼 Not South Africa 🇿🇦 Those countries focused on startup growth, innovation funding, venture capital, infrastructure, and talent development. Not gatekeeping who can code. 5️⃣ Nigeria passed a @StartupActNg to CREATE an enabling environment for innovation and digital entrepreneurship. Ghana is discussing legislation that many young developers fear could RESTRICT entry into the ecosystem. That contrast matters. 6️⃣ Kenya became “Silicon Savannah” because regulators gave innovation room to breathe. Imagine if M-Pesa had first needed years of licensing bureaucracy before launch. Africa’s fintech revolution may never have happened. 7️⃣ Rwanda is aggressively positioning itself as an innovation destination for AI, fintech, cloud infrastructure, and startups. Meanwhile Ghana is debating prison terms, licensing structures, and enforcement powers around ICT participation. How are we competing globally with this mindset? 8️⃣ The Bill gives NITA broad powers to: • suspend licences • revoke licences • prohibit ICT activity • seize equipment • approve certain operational changes This goes far beyond “professional standards.” 9️⃣ The scariest part? The definitions are broad. “ICT services.” “Digital platforms.” “Related ICT activities.” In law, broad wording creates uncertainty and uncertainty kills startups. 🔟. Investors hate environments where rules can suddenly expand without clarity. Young founders avoid ecosystems where regulation feels unpredictable. Talent relocates where innovation feels safer. This is how brain drain accelerates. 11. Ghana already struggles with: • youth unemployment • startup funding gaps • venture capital shortages • limited support for creators and builders The tech ecosystem is one of the few spaces where young people can create global opportunities from Ghana. Why make entry harder? 12. The irony is painful. The same government talking about digital transformation may now create barriers for the very people driving that transformation. You cannot build a digital economy while policing innovation like a controlled profession. 13. Every major global tech success story started with experimentation. Facebook. Google. Stripe. WhatsApp. Flutterwave. Paystack. Most started with builders moving faster than regulation. 14. Regulation is important. Cybersecurity matters. Consumer protection matters. Data governance matters. But smart regulation protects innovation and bad regulation suffocates it. 15. Ghana needs policies that encourages: • startups • AI innovation • software engineering • digital freelancing • remote work • youth entrepreneurship • global competitiveness!

@MbeahEssilfie I’ll send it to you on slack😂

I need to get off twitter until I watch the final episode

What are Nigerian atheists doing?

@Akintola_steve software development ≠ Computer Science

Somewhere in Nigeria right now, a CS graduate with a second class upper is sitting next to a self-taught developer who never finished university. The self-taught developer ships faster, debugs better, understands systems more deeply, and gets paid more. The CS graduate spent four years studying computer science. The self-taught developer spent four years actually doing it. That difference didn't happen by accident.

@MbeahEssilfie @PrinceWithGod7 @mobasit8 Your man read saa now he get imaginary girlfriend 🤣😂💔

@PrinceWithGod7 you've not seen @mobasit8 ...

A reader is never alone 😊

we are quick to welcome the unbeliever, but very quick to distance ourselves from the believer who is struggling. winning souls is important, but retaining souls matters too.
