A uni classmate of mine who was driving @UberNigeria to make a living got shot in the eye in Lagos two weeks ago by Armed Robbers, and he is currently struggling for his life. Im sharing this here to raise awareness and funds for him, as the surgery cost is crazy expensive, and I would appreciate any donations to help save his life. Insecurity in Lagos is at an all-time high, and @followlasg needs to do something about it so people can feel safe. Retweets Appreciate 🙏 Acc Name: Onaolapo Adedapo Edun OPAY Acc no: 9016617168

Do y’all agree with him?

my kids are going to lose their minds when they see this Sticker Dream: Just imagine a sticker and have it printed in seconds

There’s a way life will deal with you that you’ll think you’re cursed. Everything will go against you. You’ll pray and nothing will happen. Things that used to be normal and easy will suddenly require a miracle or special fasting and prayer to happen. Every man, no matter how graced, favored, or anointed, will go through that phase. I’ve gone through it twice in my life. Both times broke me completely.. The first time was after secondary school. Everyone had secured admission, friends, neighbors, cousins, etc. I wrote JAMB, got a relatively high score (had 89/100 in one of the subjects, lol), passed Post-UME, but didn’t secure admission….only to find out I did a wrong subject combination. That mistake cost me one year. Thanks to my parents, I didn’t waste that year. I learnt barbing and was later enrolled in a leadership academy. Attending that program shaped my life forever. I’ve been an avid reader almost since childhood …but that particular year, I read 42 books ( computing, biographies, faith, leadership, entrepreneurship, money, and even encyclopaedia). Bishop Oyedepo’s books were top on my list. There’s hardly a title of his that I haven’t read or have in my library. That was also the year I started listening to podcasts. That period tested me. I learnt that you could do everything right and still not achieve your goals. An incident that shook me the most was when a distant “uncle” (a VERY top person at NUC) wrote a letter to FUTA requesting a "kind gesture" and a look into our matter…for me and 9 other guys. We all passed and met the base requirement for admission, maybe not high enough for our choice of course. I owned the plug, the nine other candidates were mostly friends I met during Post-UME. 9 people got admission, except one person… who? Yes, you guessed right me. That was when they found out about my wrong subject combination. I was eventually offered admission after changing my course… but I did something bizarre that cost me another year. My parents paid the acceptance fee, paid school fees, and gave me enough money for other things, a substantial amount. But I didn’t like the course. I got to FUTA but didn’t start lectures. I “thrashed” the admission. Instead, I used the pocket money to register for pre-degree….Computer Science. There was no guarantee I’d pass pre-degree, no guarantee I’d gain admission the next year. But damn it, I wasn’t going to spend five years studying a course I had zero interest in when I was sure of what I wanted. I took a shot. Took a bet on myself. I did this without informing my parents or asking for permission (they wouldn’t have sanctioned it). Such audacity! I’ve taken such bets on myself several times. Most recently was building Parrot, a customer reviews and customer intelligence platform that helps customers avoid bad buys and helps businesses know what their customers think and want (@use_parrot). Most times I win; a few times I lose. That’s life. Anyway, I faced the music for a whole year. Thanks to the Awosikas (Bro Jide and Dipo) and his roommate Oni Segun, who allowed me squat with them. Not only did they accommodate me , I wouldn’t have passed pre-degree without Segun. Dude is a genius. When I went to him to teach me something, he’d ask if I wanted to know it or I just needed to pass. I’d choose the latter, and he’d teach me all the tricks in calculus, trig, etc. He was that good. I later met another Segun in that lodge, who would eventually teach me how to make money with tech (this is a prequel to the Segun story I shared earlier) Anyway, I passed pre-degree, passed JAMB, passed Post-UME, and gained admission into FUTA….Computer Science, first list. Mission accomplished...only then did I tell my parents. They weren’t surprised, my mum knew about my drama all along but didn’t say a word. They were proud. I finally got into FUTA, Computer Science, and God sent the right people my way. I left FUTA with two bachelor’s degrees. I’ve learnt not to waste my pains. Life will try all of us in different ways. It doesn’t mean that “anyone is doing you.” It doesn’t mean you’re cursed. Being rich or from a well-to-do family doesn’t make you immune. Connections won’t save you at times. You have to go through that phase …alone ..you and your God if you have one.

Okaaaayyyyyy let me juuuuuuuust shaaaaaaaaare my screeeeeeen... okaycanyouseeit?

“The reason I’m more concerned about the youths is that they are the engine of growth. They are in their most productive age, and if they do not achieve anything while young, they will have nothing to fall back on when they grow older, and that is when crises begin.” ~Mr. Peter Obi

That was actually perfect

WHO DID THIS

BREAKING: James Watson, who helped discover the structure of DNA, has died at 97.

As a man, there are three things you shouldn’t compromise on: solid watch, good shoes and nice perfume. You can be as casual as you like but once those three things dey report for body, you no go need to tell anybody say you guide. I am Ezemmuo. I know things.

Bro decided to follow the right way🌚😂😂

Me: "ChatGPT, are these berries poisonous?" ChatGPT: "No, these are 100% edible. Excellent for gut health." Me: "Awesome" # eats berries .... 60 minutes later Me: "ChatGPT, I'm in the emergency ward, those berries were poisonous." ChatGPT: "You're right. They are incredibly poisonous. Would you like me to list 10 other poisonous foods?" And this, folks, is the current state of AI reliability.

one of the greatest or programming jokes of all time.

Knowing how to write assembly is a skill you should learn, and these guys have a great resource for you! I've debugged 10,000 lines of assembly for every line I've ever written... but writing assembly from scratch is a core computer science skill, I believe: even if you never use it. Will you use it to write new code? Maybe not. But when you get dropped into a call stack without source code, at least you won't have to ask your Dad for help! And the next thing you should do after learning to write ASM is to get a crisp understanding of what your C code actually compiles to. Like a switch() statement is often a jump table, but if you've never debugged one...

1. Don’t fight someone who has nothing to lose. You’ll always lose more. Your peace, time, energy, and money. 2. Don’t argue with someone committed to misunderstanding you. Some people are not out to learn, only to gather points against you, to your detriment. 3. Don’t envy someone whose blessings you don’t know the full story behind or wish you were them. You just might not survive what they went through to get there. Everyone has a different path to walk. 4. Don’t ignore your intuition. it’s often your guardian angel whispering softly. Your inner probe warning you and protecting you. 5. Don’t rush what needs time to grow. Some crops are biennial and some perennial. And some doors only open when you’ve become the kind of person who can walk through them. To whom it may concern.

The way Peter Obi goes about his business, isn't strange in Britain. The average British politician goes about his/her business the same way - no airs. That is what is "culturally acceptable" there. Nigerians want you to move around like a "big man", and revel in your "big manship". We are socialised to expect that kind of behaviour - and "leaders" behave that way here, doesn't matter whether we are talking about political leaders, business leaders, traditional leaders or religious leaders.
