Founder, @openchowng. I once called 112 because I needed food. Now I’m building a system to make sure people can eat without having to beg.

There's a strange thing that happens online and in real world conversations, where understanding or explaining an idea or phenomenon is interpreted as SUPPORTING it. As a result, people pretend to not understand things, lest they be seen as advocating them.

Children in africa have been starving my entire life and during my entire life i think theyve sent 10 trillion dollars to africa. I dont fucking care at this point they got to figure their shit out by themselves
The difference between those who have everything and those with nothing in this world is heartbreaking 💔 Source: ferdychildrenfoundation1 on IG / Writer: Ian

"Educate the girl child" "Empowerment for the girl child" Again, I ask. What is the benefit of the education and empowerment if *MAJORITY* of them still end up thinking like this?
Dating a financially unstable man will naturally force you to get your financial needs met elsewhere.

All this because you want to give your man another man’s child to raise? How hard is it to give the child to their actual father? 😭 And before you dumb fvckers come crying in my comments, I fully support catching and prosecuting rapists. But weaponizing rape to win a gender war is disgusting. Rape is a crime, not a gender-war bargaining chip.
if dna tests should be mandatory at birth, then every man’s dna should be entered into a database for unsolved rape cases too.

The reason feminists call motherhood and house work slave labor" is because feminism was invented by rich white women Who had Black slaves. Irish maids. Nannies. Housekeepers wiping their kids' asses, cooking their food, cleaning their floors. So in THEIR house, being a wife and mother WAS slave work. Because it was literally done by slaves. They grew up watching slaves do these jobs for them. A normal woman never saw feeding her kids as oppression. It was duty. Love. Pride. The work that kept her family alive. But a rich feminist? She never breastfed her own baby. Never stayed up all night with a fever. Never scrubbed a toilet. She paid another woman to do it, then went to a salon and wrote an essay about how homemaking is oppressive. That's the scam. They didn't liberate you from slavery. They taught you to be ASHAMED of what your mother and grandmother did with honor. They took the most fundamental duty on earth a wife building a home, a mother raising her blood and rebranded it as degrading servant work. Because for THEM, it always was. You were brainwashed by rich women who never changed a diaper in their lives.

Every month, there's about 2 of these - and I'm not exaggerating. This begs the question: How many unreported cases do we have in Nigeria? Because you cannot tell me this isn't a pattern at this point.

If you are physically well, use it while you can. You never know when your train could get derailed and change the trajectory of your entire life. Be blessed and work hard, have a dream and actively work towards it. You can do it

Let me tell you a secret based on my Community Experience at Andela: if you want to have genuine connections with your followers on X, look at everything big NG tech bro accounts are doing, and do the opposite. Like literally watch that Big Sheddy guy, and similar accounts with 40k+ followers and do the opposite. These are "big" accounts on X that barely get genuine interactions because they think they've arrived. Pay attention and don't fall into the same hollow chamber they've created regardless of the success you have. See, everyone matters. You see that guy that hasn't yet subscribed to X Premium, he fit blow tomorrow o. Oh, this other person has 30 followers and doesn't deserve a reply? E go shock you when one trend will skyrocket his account. Tech follows a trend. People you've never heard of just last month go viral after creating a game. This taxi game that came up the other day did millions of impressions and dude has been adding followers like water. Or is it Lagos Life? See, it's all a trend. 4 years ago my guy, my sis, I was going for interviews and proudly rejecting jobs like a fool. Omo, today, even with my CV, them dey air me oo. So it's a trend. Bide your time, stay patient, hone those skills, NEVER look down on anyone except APC supporters (because they are after your life). You matter more than you think and everyone you come across also matters a lot. Stay grateful and keep your head high always. This life na less.

Some will lose a good relationship trying to impress friends who call affection weakness. Reply when you want to reply. Say you miss them. The people clapping for your hard guy behaviour will not keep you company when everybody has gone home.
Some of you need to accept that the street is not for you. It's very okay to find a partner you are committed to, and love the fvck out of each other. You're not a player or bad bitch, and that is okay.

Se não fosse pelos cristãos o incesto, estupro e o infanticidio seria algo visto como normal e natural, como quase todas as tribos viam. Querendo ou não maior parte da ética que temos é graças aos cristãos.
O mundo só será seguro e civilizado quando todas as cópias desses livros malditos e tudo relacionado a eles forem apagados da história e não tem nada que me faça mudar de ideia.

Every person you meet is not a customer. Some will be connectors. Some mentors. Some partners. Some friends. Some lessons. Build relationships, not merely transactions.
