Having worked for someone senior enough - these people don’t run their own lives. They don’t cook. They don’t clean. Don’t do groceries. Don’t do the garden. Don’t pick up kids. Don’t fetch their own medicine or dry cleaning or correspondence. 60 hrs is doable. FOR THEM.

It’s called emergency funds for when we arrive in Nigeria. I have 20k cash with me to help me navigate airport hassle and your Beggy beggy airport staff.
Dear @naptipnigeria@FAAN_Official
Today, at Aminu Kano International Airport & I came across a situation. A Chinese national was in the company of two teenagers (not older than 13 years) & they were boarding to Lagos. To my surprise, NOBODY in the Airport seems to bother.
Argue until you are blue but if all the civil servants including elected ones have their children in public schools and hospitals, Nigerian public schools and hospitals will be world-class, like they once were
But...argue.
If Tinapa was working & Dubai imposed a Visa ban on almost 30 African nations.
If Nigerian refineries were working & Russia invaded Ukraine
If Nigeria exported Agricultural products & China banned imports of US Soybeans & Sorghum
If Ajaokuta was working

Today, she told me it had been fixed for free and I didn’t need to pay anything. I thanked her. Hopefully, she now knows that some Nigerians can be honourable…in the real sense of the word. 😊3/3.
Several weeks later, I got a message through WhatsApp from a lady of Indian origin, telling me her name and saying it was her car I had brushed. She had been in hospital and had just come out. We agreed that she should get a quote and I’ll just pay, rather than use insurance. 2/3
The last time I was in London, I brushed a parked car the day before I returned to Nigeria. I had shifted the rear bumper. I left a note under windscreen wiper for the owner with my Nigerian number. I didn’t hear anything for weeks and had totally forgotten about it. 1/3
1- The name of our prophet Mohammed is raised five times a day literally all over the world. This means that there is not a single hour that passes on this globe without his name being mentioned in the athan.
Anyone who wants to “teach you" how to make money is a scammer. I went to business school and they didn't even teach us how to make money there. They mainly taught us how not to lose money. I did a course on launching new ventures at the best in the world and same thing. Safety.
Whether you had no shoes growing up or you can’t buy a car the cost of one flight ticket to London for your adult son, spare us the fairytales this time around. That’s how some characters posed with sachet Milo that year only to get elected and show us the mother of all sheges.
Find it a bit weird that "Tech" has been conflated with "computer code." The word "tech" is short for "technology." That's it.
In this part of the world, the "tech" that needs scaling is stuff like electricity, water systems and all-weather roads.
Can't write code for that.
People are missing a main point on why Netflix stock is down 30% today wiping $55b of value
It isn’t just extra competition of Disney, HBO or Peacock…that’s just an excuse
The real reason:
TikTok is increasingly taking more and more of people’s entertainment time
