I’d say this slowly: Refuse to let anyone define you by single moments in your life, whether mistakes you made or victories you won. Accept that you are more than both.

The funniest thing I've ever seen on the internet today😭😂

Final tweet of the day... And I hope you see this. Men, I beg you in the name of God... Prioritize yourself. Your health, your happiness, your peace. I understand society has you wired to be a provider and put everyone else before yourself. But, you will just die like chicken, and for nothing too.

God saved me, Running did a great part too

I’m sorry guys but I’m watching that police execution video and after he shot the guy, the other police officers started hailing him shouting ‘OGBEGBE’ or am I the only one that heard it?

The most infuriating sight!!! A policeman gruesomely murders a man in broad daylight in Delta. This man is clearly restrained and poses no threat whatsoever. What kind of ANIMALISTIC behaviour is this @PoliceNG ?!!!

@currentiyke @orcabi_music My husband is currently job hunting, 5+ years Node.js, Typescript, Next.js, JavaScript, AWS. Full-Stack too React.js, but backend heavy. If you’re hiring for this role please send me a dm. 🙏🏽

That boy begged and cried for a fair hearing but he was killed and silenced by @PoliceNG without trial or investigation.

Until death, every defeat is temporary

You need to have a higher purpose. Your life can’t just be sleeping, waking up and trying to make money. Your life won’t feel like it has meaning.

no importa en el lugar mas bajo que estes, no importa si tocaste fondo, siempre habrá una salida, una forma de crecer, hasta la muerte, toda derrota es temporal

Hanging out with your (real) friends is the best thing ever. No matter how bad things get it will always make you feel good oh. Always.

@seyedele Well that’s your opportunity to show him that your success is legitimate, don’t dismiss it or laugh it away. African men hardly have an accessible example of good success nowadays so please make him understand that yours took hard-work and dedication.

One of the dangerous things about our society now is that people who see you and to them you appear to be doing well, somehow resolve that you have to be into fraud. Random, unexpected message from the guy that painted my house. It’s extremely worrisome.

Things done out of love for the wrong person can never be something you shame the doer for. She loved through words and actions, some of you are dead inside and can never understand what that is, Yall should sit this one out.

A semicolon is used instead of a comma and a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so -- remember FANBOYS) Instead of: I like coffee, but I don't drink it every day. you can write: I like coffee; I don't drink it every day.

I sent $1,000 from New York to Lagos through 8 payment rails. The best delivered ₦1,400,000. The worst delivered ₦1,323,000. That ₦77,000 gap = one month of groceries for a family in Lagos. Yesterday's rail comparison got sharp feedback. The strongest critique: "Try this on a low-liquidity corridor. I bet stablecoins don't look the same." Fair. So I redid the experiment on the hardest corridor I could find: Nigeria. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗡𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗮 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲: The Naira isn't one currency. It's two. → The official CBN rate: ₦1,345 per USD. Banks, SWIFT, Wise, Western Union must use it. → The parallel market rate: ₦1,400 per USD. It's where real dollar supply meets real demand. That 4% gap isn't a fee. It's the government pricing the naira higher than anyone is willing to pay for it. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 $𝟭,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗟𝗮𝗴𝗼𝘀: 🥇 USDT P2P: ₦1,400,000 (30 sec, $0.01) 🥈 Yellow Card: ₦1,393,000 (2 min) 🥉 Bitcoin: ₦1,393,000 (~10 min) 4️⃣ Sendwave (International Remittance): ₦1,372,000 (15 min) 5️⃣ Wise: ₦1,344,000 (CBN rate) 6️⃣ Swift: ₦1,344,000 (3-7 days, $50 fee) 7️⃣ Western Union: ₦1,330,000 8️⃣ PayPal Xoom: ₦1,323,000 (5.5% hidden spread) 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁: That USDT P2P rate only exists because someone, somewhere, holds naira and wants dollars. The P2P desk IS the off-ramp. It's real infrastructure, with real liquidity risk. But here's what they couldn't see on the Paris–NY corridor: In a dual-rate economy, stablecoins aren't just faster. They give you access to a different price. The real price. Nigeria has the world's 2nd-largest P2P crypto volume. Not speculation. Access to the actual dollar rate, without flying to Lagos with a suitcase. The next decade's fintech question isn't "will stablecoins replace SWIFT?" It's "what happens when 2 billion people in dual-rate economies realize they can bypass the official channel?" ₦77,000 on $1,000 tells me the question is worth asking.
