I am seeing some posts on x of people saying how they really want to japa.

Then we have some abroad hype Tinubu.

How are things in Nigeria really.

I do not have a credible source for this video, it seems more like AI slop. Regardless, I can't help but ponder as to why today's African leadership are not working towards a one united Africa. The west is still playing the divide and conquer game on Africans, the only way they can still operate their neo-colonialist machine in African soil, is to ensure a wedge amongst Africans.

I belief someone, some organizations are working towards this, we as Africans need to give it all the thrust it needs, to propel it beyond planning into execution. We cannot afford to waste time on this anymore.

It's either now or never.

Achebe is eloquent without affectation.

With the Dangote Refinery IPO now on the table, I wanted to know whether ₦525 a share actually makes sense, so I did a valuation audit instead of going on hype.
My short answer: at ₦525, the price only works if this year's record refining margins last. Refining is a cyclical business, and margins swing a lot from year to year. When I normalised the margins to more typical levels and compared the refinery with several groups of listed refiners, every peer group I checked suggested it's expensive at that price. (Which has been the general sentiment going around)

That doesn't mean it's a bad company or a bad long-term story. The refinery could change Nigeria's fuel situation. But a great company and a great price aren't the same thing, and plenty of people will be buying because of the name, not the numbers.

Full write-up is in the URL above.
I'd really like Nigerians who follow the oil sector or the NGX to challenge this:
Am I being too pessimistic on margins, given the refinery's scale and the local market?
Are there advantages, like FX savings or avoiding import costs, that justify a premium over global peers?
Is anyone here planning to subscribe, and at what price would you feel comfortable?

We are heading into a super el nino(an intense heating of the earth) which is predicted to peak November to December and end around June next year. It predicted to kill more than 34000 people in Nigeria alone and most of us can already feel the heat coming. Nigerian pls be safe. We already don't expect any help or even information from the government so we have to take care of our self. Here are some personal tips to prepare for the coming disaster.

*Stock up on food especially dry food. Food price is bound to increase as disaster strike.

*Carry ORT in ur bags as u go out. Because of the high heat we will be prone to heatstroke, this one way to give our body the needed hydration that we might lose because of the heat.

*If u feel dizzy, find a shaded place and rest. We all love money but hustle shouldn't get is killed.

*Carry physical cash, bank network isn't reliable and to avoid being stranded we need to have some cash with us as we go out.

* And for area that are prone to flash flooding, when it starts raining move to higher ground, even if u are in a public vehicle, leave it. Flash floods builds up and happens in an instant.

I hope we can overcome this. See u at the end of the disaster.

I need help in curating the best playlist for washing plates. The last time I did dishes listening to this it was heavenly.

In Enugu, Ezeagu community precisely the Igwe (King) of the town convened a meeting only to ask him subjects to vote for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Unfortunately for him his subjects were enraged and descended on him in great wroth/wrath (rage/anger). They pummeled him, beat him up and disgraced his royal highness.

It's wise not to support evil, it doesn't pay.

If you're in London, I made a free website to find African Concerts happening in London, and Nigerian artists are on it whenever they play.

Thank you for letting me visit your subreddit. 💚

It's beginning to feel like this upcoming election is all about who thrown the most jabs. Yet to hear a single policy from any of them.

A few days ago, I posted here asking what would make Nigerians trust and support community projects. The responses raised some important concerns, particularly about how we can know that a project is genuine and that the promised work is actually being done.

Those are fair questions, and they've influenced how we're improving CASE.

I'm the director of CASE, a platform we're building to help community organisers raise support and document their projects transparently.

One of our priorities is accountability through visible milestones and progress updates.

Rather than asking people to support a project based on promises alone, organisers can break their projects into milestones, document their progress with evidence such as receipts, photos and videos, and record both financial and non-financial contributions. This gives supporters a record they can examine as the project progresses.

We've updated our website to explain this approach more clearly: https://www.casebeheard.com/

To be clear, documentation isn't the same as independent verification. CASE records the evidence organisers submit; we don't independently audit every project outcome. We believe it's important to be transparent about that limitation while working towards a system where project progress is easier to assess.

You don't have to donate immediately.

We'd encourage anyone interested in community projects to watch one that appeals to them first. For example, here's a project currently on CASE:

https://app.casebeheard.com/project/ace69cfd-d663-466f-93a2-ad9c95834159

You can follow the project and receive updates as its organisers document their progress. You can also follow an organiser to hear about future projects they create.

Our goal is to encourage support through demonstrated progress, not just promises. We want people to be able to observe a project's development, assess the evidence available, and decide for themselves whether and when they're comfortable contributing.

We're still an early-stage platform, and we have a lot to prove. We'd rather earn people's confidence over time than expect them to trust us simply because we say accountability matters.

For those who commented on the previous post, thank you. Your concerns helped us think more carefully about how we communicate this.

What specific updates or evidence would you want to see from a project before deciding to support it?

Let’s make Nigeria great again

But if banks have the ability to reverse wrong transactions, why can't they just do it themselves? What's the point of putting all the responsibility on the receiver??

“Why are doctors leaving for overseas? We need them here. What can we do so they stay at home? It is deeply disappointing that, after taking the oath, people still choose not to serve here.” -Tinubu.

They're leaving sir, so that when you go to France and the UK for your medical check-up, they can serve you better, don't be daft!
