Started November with zero cash and induction hanging over me.
Somehow still pulled $11.9k from FundedNext.
Risk took $3.5k off the top. Still paid.
On to the next one.

One of my blackboards from this semester’s Data Sciences course: explaining the asymptotic consistency of the maximum likelihood estimator. I’m teaching it in English this year—should I put the whole course on YouTube? :)

Five years later, I'm happy to announce that I've started my MSc in Mathematics at the University of Calabria, Italy, on a fully funded scholarship.
Grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey.
AlhamduLlahi, always 🥹❤️

If you’re job hunting in Lagos, Abuja, Benin, Ibadan, Kaduna or anywhere across Nigeria (in all 36 states)
I spent my weekend researching, verifying and compiling job vacancies across all 36 states in Nigeria.
I have compiled over 10,000 OPEN VACANCIES across the country, vacancies cover several industries, including:
Healthcare, Supply Chain, Hospitality & Tourism, Human Resources, Engineering, Construction, Legal Services & Compliance, Operations, Customer Service, Banking & Finance, Media, NGOs, Information Technology, Agribusiness, Creative Industries, Administration & Office Management, and many more.
There are opportunities for entry-level candidates, mid-level professionals, senior-level professionals, fresh graduates, NYSC members and trainees.
I’ve also uploaded the vacancies to a dedicated website where you can search by job title, state, location or industry.
All you have to do is click “apply” and it takes you directly to application 💗

I was privileged to attend the launch of Rumbles in the New Academy (RITNA), authored by @yourownkupid, where I had the opportunity to present a practical proposal titled: Integrating UAV Training into the Curricula of Nigerian Security Institutions.
Drawing from the hard lessons of the
Russia-Ukraine war, the argument was straightforward….UAVs have evolved into significant force multipliers, fundamentally changing the character of modern warfare.
Nigeria must recognise the opportunity to harness this technology through strategic procurement, partnerships with indigenous stakeholders in the defence technology industry, and the development of the human capacity to operate, integrate and sustain these systems.
We can leverage the academic environment and intellectual capacity of officer cadets through a structured, progressive two-year training programme, or risk playing catch-up when non-state actors begin to exploit these capabilities against us.
The capacity we build today will shape how we fight tomorrow. We must prepare for the future of warfare before that future arrives uninvited.

Around 2010-2015, I used to read the Light Bearer Newspaper (COCIN's Newsletter) a lot. I would read about different churches destroyed and communities displaced by Fulani terrorists in Gashish, Barkin Ladi and environs.

Catholics know this: COMMON PREFACE IV
It is truly right and just,
our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father,
almighty and eternal God.
For, although you have no need of our praise,
yet our thanksgiving is itself your gift,
since our praises add nothing to your greatness
but profit us for salvation,
through Christ our Lord.
And so, in company with the choirs of Angels.
we praise you, and with joy we proclaim:

Picture A - when I was helping my mum to grind customer’s pepper/beans. We grind 50naira (less than 0.5$) per bowl depending on the quantity. As a faithful son and servant, this was all I did at that time.
Picture B is an international development practitioner and a recent graduate at The University of Edinburgh .
One thing I do, refused to be defined by disability and background. The focus is on Jesus, living for Him, and creating access for children and young persons with disabilities across the world through Raising Star Africa @raisingstaraf .
Still exploring the world on His wings 😌🤗.

Some minutes before 9 to 5 starts..but before I switch into work mode.. I just finished something I have been working on for years..
A complete 100% open source of my solar setup. Including detailed schematics, component I used down to every MCB and alternative you can use. where I got them, official distributors I used.
I worked with claude over the weekend to push this over the line.
I added a complete list of bill of materials. I made it very easy and simple to follow. as you know.. I would be releasing this out with a blog post.
Also open source is how I built this so anyone can also use same format to publish their own system.
I started this journey 10 years ago knowing zero about electricity.. everything I learned as been someone sharing their knowledge.. this is just me giving back.
see you at past 17:01
before then a sneak peak..

Born before television entered ordinary homes, he now keeps in touch on WhatsApp.
Today, my father, Ogbueshi, is 100 years old.
On November 9, 1926, the world he entered was almost unrecognisable. Queen Elizabeth II was a six-month-old baby. Lufthansa, Mercedes-Benz and McKinsey were newly established. Television had just been publicly demonstrated. In Nigeria, the Union Jack flew over a British colony, and the Daily Times had only begun publication.
He was 33 when Nigeria became independent. He was 39 when the first military coup came in 1966. He lived through the tragedy of Biafra, the return to civilian rule in 1979, and the long years of military government. In 1999, he witnessed the restoration of democracy, and he has now seen 27 unbroken years of it.
He has travelled from handwritten letters to the telephone, and from the telephone to the smartphone. Today, he chats on WhatsApp, transfers money on his banking app, and still reads the news online. A man born under colonial rule now moves with ease through the age of artificial intelligence.
Yet his life has not been made of change alone. He has buried all his siblings and outlived his two wives. He has known the joy of raising a family and the sorrow of saying goodbye to those he loved. Through it all, he has remained steadfast.
His mind is clear. His health, within the limits of age, is remarkable. No terminal illness. No debilitating disease.
As a teenager, I never imagined he would see 70. A hundred was beyond my imagination.
November 9 has always been special to our family. My youngest brother was born on this day, and on this date, I married the love of my life at the Anglican Cathedral of the Advent, Life Camp, Abuja.
This morning, we will gather around him and sing his favourite hymn, How Great Thou Art. On December 27, we will gather at St Andrew's Church, Obosi, where he was baptised, to thank Almighty God for a century of mercy.
A hundred years ago, the world was different. Nations have risen, empires have fallen, and inventions once unimaginable have become ordinary.
Through it all, one thing has remained constant: God's grace.
Happy 100th birthday, Papa.
Your life is our testimony.

if you learn marketing engineering, you will never be unemployed again.
you need two things for all of it: claude code and a github account. marketers who know how to use them well and build their own agents will make real money for their companies.

1/ @roberkoptas wrote so well, I wanted to translate here some parts from his Agos article in memory of Armen Demirciyan: "He was born in 1961, born a Kurdish, born a Muslim, born Abdürrahim Zorarslan; but in 2026, he died as Armen Demirciyan, Armen *ahpayrig*.

For nearly 20 years, over 300 containers of transmission equipment sat stranded at our ports. This equipment was bought to expand the network, relieve overloaded substations and bring more reliable electricity to Nigerians.
Yesterday, the Nigeria Customs Service approved the release of the first 98. Our engineers will now verify the equipment, test it and deploy it where it is needed most. That means completing stalled projects, easing pressure on overloaded substations and strengthening the grid.
This is a significant first step, and we are working to secure the release of the remaining 200+ containers without further delay.
We are grateful to His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for approving the release. We also thank the Comptroller-General and officers of the Nigeria Customs Service, the Honourable Minister of Finance, the Honourable Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, the Nigerian Ports Authority, the terminal operators and the TCN team for their support.
A stronger grid, one step at a time. 🇳🇬
