Mark Zuckerberg, my first big tech hero. 

In 2006 - 2008 when Facebook became popular in Nigeria, we had  Hi5 and MySpace, but they weren’t just cutting it. Facebook, in our eyes was like a new thing we’d never seen before, features like Photo Tagging, Post Sharing, News Feed really...

Spent almost 12 hours on the road on Friday. Spent 7 hours returning from the same trip. 

On Friday, it rained heavily hence the need to drive carefully. But really, some major roads were actually flooded. 

The road trip reminds me of Nigeria in ways I don’t want to.

It’s 11pm.

I’m in Kwara State Nigeria. Kwara is pretty much where Northern Nigeria starts. I’m far from Lagos.

One Corner To Rule Them All

This can’t happen we don’t even do like that in real life. One place for everyone to hang out? Not possible 

Big Corners here and there 

Yes. We have them already. The big guys - Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok etc 

Small corners everywhere

This is it. This is what...

I see some people have an overarching goal that actually stops them from living. 

Some want to emigrate to another country so bad, that's all they live for. No matter how long this goal takes they are willing to pause their life for it. Four, five, ten years of planning...

"Our Husband Has Gone Mad Again" is the title of a drama written by Nigerian playwright Ola Rotimi. I've never read the book, but I know it portrays the madness that is Nigerian Politics.

Each time the madness is displayed, I'm reminded of my favourite book I never read. The most...

This is not a John Wick slander. 

I think it's a travesty calling Keanu Reeves John Wick rather than Neo. I know it's because of social media. Kids today have no idea how huge The Matrix was.
