October 11th, 2025 one for the history books .
A truly productive day that redefined my mindset and network.
I finally met my Web3 friends IRL, and it was pure vibes great energy, solid convos, and compliments flying around about my style and build.
Reunited with my secondary school guys @phaite @Biccky_12 @ZoeyBlaze5 Enoch, and somehow we all ended up talking about Web3 moves, reconciling and real opportunities.
Grateful for the grace of diplomacy.
I also got to see Xeus live. I almost greeted him (Tage encouraged me to greet him that he knows me), but something held me back. Not out of fear I just want to meet him again and say, “Blockfest changed my life.”
Big shout out to Enoch , a Web3 KOL and my old schoolmate, he gave me his time, shared insights, and helped me see how to maximize my skill set in this space.
And to @Biccky_12, for bringing me clarity on the paths ahead.
Now I know…
The real work starts with me.
It’s time to stay relentless, stay intentional, and put excellence in everything I do.
Because as @SamuelXeus said:
“Excellence begets excellence.”
No more mediocrity in my circle.
Only growth, grit, and greatness.

Your men are complaining about your behaviour home and abroad. Foreigners are complaining about your behaviour abroad. You are now mad your men are not defending you when foreigners complain about the same thing your men always complain about.
Behave well and your men will defend you. Fix your bad character.

I used to have a Nigerian neighbour years ago here in the UK, and he had a wife and FIVE daughters.
He paid for EVERYTHING, as he would work 12 (sometimes more) hour shifts everyday.
And his wife? USELESS. She did fuck all, you would go to their house and it would be dirty as fuck.
When she actually did cook for once in a blue moon, she would never open the windows, so the place stank.
There would be bits of rice throughout the place.
I wish I was joking, but I am not.
She was fat and entitled as fuck, and that is when I knew that Nigerian men go through some bullshit.
I told my old neighbour privately, he needs to start spending money on himself and take care of himself.
He told me his Father and Grandfather tried telling him the same things too back home.
Otherwise, he would work himself to death at a young age, all because his Nigerian woman is useless.
Man to Man:
Do not settle for these women.
Feminism has either corrupted their minds, or brought out their true selves.
Prioritise yourselves brothers.

Paying your woman monthly for offering you nothing but sex : romance
Cooking for your man: oppression and slavery

You would think this is just for content, but it is the reality.
I have a friend in the UK who is a nurse. While he was still in Nigeria, he had been asking a particular lady out, but she repeatedly turned him down. It was only when she found out that his Japa plans had finally worked out that she agreed to date him.
He arranged an emergency introduction and court wedding before leaving for the UK. He later returned to Nigeria for an elaborate wedding ceremony and eventually took her to the UK.
The lady is a Nigerian-registered nurse. However, when she arrived in the UK, she started working in the care sector. She didn’t even work more than two days a week, and she was unwilling to support her husband financially.
She never contributed to the household, not even towards the smallest expenses. Meanwhile, the man would boast about being an Odogwu who could single-handedly take care of his family.
She obtained her UK nursing registration and suddenly stopped working.
Recently, she called her husband and asked him to sponsor her younger brother, who is in Nigeria, for his master’s degree in the UK. Her husband jokingly asked her, “Is that why you have been saving so aggressively all this while, while refusing to contribute anything to this family?”
She got angry and stopped cooking or doing anything around the house.
That was the beginning of the marital crisis. She has now secured a nursing job and moved out of the matrimonial home to live independently.
What people are doing in Nigeria is not love.

Well articulated, Mr Dick.
Any responsible man understands that providing for his woman goes beyond meeting household needs. It also means making resources available to her to meet her personal needs, especially when she earns little or nothing.
If you are my woman, I will give you money generously. If I know you need ₦10,000 for something, I may give you ₦20,000 or more, depending on what I can afford. That extra is simply me giving you money because I want to.
I will deliberately make money available to you through different means and on different occasions. Beyond that, I will do my best to meet your needs. I will do so genuinely and sacrificially. If it is a genuine need and not just a want, I could even borrow to help you. I could give you my last money, and you would never know it was my last. I will do everything within my capacity to ensure that when you ask me for something, you get it, except when I am genuinely unable to provide it.
I find fulfilment in being able to meet my woman's needs. Seeing her happy and comfortable gives me satisfaction, even if I have to go temporarily broke in the process.
However, there is no way I would enter into an AGREEMENT with a woman to pay her a fixed amount every month as an allowance. The expression "monthly allowance" already sounds like a salary to me.
It is even more disturbing in the case of a girlfriend expecting to be paid a fixed monthly salary. The responsibility of a boyfriend to a girlfriend is to "support" her. The keyword here is support, not assume total financial responsibility for her. There is a clear difference between supporting your partner and being expected to take care of all her financial needs. Of course, I recognise that the circumstances may be different if she is at a stage in life where she is not yet earning an income.
Personally, I think men who make such arrangements may be approaching relationships from a place of insecurity or low self-worth. I struggle to understand why a man would agree to pay a woman a salary simply because she is in a relationship with him. Is she his employee?
To me, such an arrangement makes financial support look like PAYMENT for a service. I find it difficult to distinguish that from a transactional arrangement between a prostitute and her client.
You and I cannot claim to love each other while operating under an AGREEMENT that I must PAY you to receive your love. That, to me, defeats the very idea of genuine affection and generosity.
The bottom line is, I should be willing to give you because I love you and genuinely want to see you comfortable, not because we have entered into a financial arrangement that makes giving an obligation or a condition for receiving your affection.
I will never pay for love, I come from a loving home.

On Monthly Allowance.
I'm not even against it. You would know if you've seen my tweet from the past. It is how you people frame it and talk about it, that is disgusting. There is no aspect of love that is gendered because love is not a masculine responsibility, it is a lover's duty. Whether you're a man or woman is frankly, irrelevant.
If your partner loses their job and you're earning N200k. You could decide to give them N50k monthly till they get back on their feet. You have other responsibilities but they have become primary.
If you earn a lot more than your partner. N4m to N250k. You could decide to put them on N250k or whatever, monthly, to supplement their income due to the extant economic reality. Once you see your money as "our money" love is easy. You want to see your partner happy and in a good place.
Understand that while doing either of these, you're still both invested in each other and building a home together in love and togetherness. The problem with the "monthly allowance discourse on the TL" is that it revolves around vagina entitlement. You think you deserve it just because you're a woman or because you think you 'give him sex.' Some of you are in same tax bracket as your man or even earn higher and still feel entitled to monthly allowance. Are you an armed robber?
You cannot claim to love anyone and put them in dis-ease. How are you comfortable collecting monthly allowance from someone that earns same as you while carrying more responsibilities than you? You don't love them. The first principle of love is kindness. You must put your partner's best interest upfront.
Having said this, I totally understand people who are against it because it could lead to entitlement. Look at you people that haven't even started collecting it, and you feel very entitled to it. Interestingly, same you that claim you deserve it, have sworn you cannot do it for your man. Are you not a witch? It is gross hypocrisy to demand love you cannot give. Love is for lovers. You only deserve the love you give.
Many of you don't deserve shit. You tweet shit for clout and validation, and to esteem yourself highly in the eyes of potential mates. But when vagina is your only premise for deserving an allowance, you make it obvious to the gallery that you're nothing more than a hors d'oeuvre to the vagina hunters.

I really don’t like coming online to post my private life but I guess this is necessary.
I was assaulted and harassed by police officers at Somolu today.
They claimed that the vehicle that I have been driving for 5 years is stolen because a sticker that carries the plate number of the previous car owner was found on the top left corner of the windscreen of my vehicle
After giving them all my up-to-date car documents, including my proof of Ownership documents, they insist my car was a stolen vehicle. How is that possible when I have been renewing my papers and going for car inspections every year for the last 5 years ? Thier claim was just outrageous and wasn’t making any sense to me
One of them even went away with my car documents and I do not know where he went to and if he had gone to tamper with them. When I asked where my car papers were, one of them punched me in the chest 3 times. I have it on camera
I noticed a pattern of oppression and because I didn’t allow myself to be taken advantage of, they ended up rough handling me, holding me on my trousers like a common criminal and finally towing my car and confiscating in the street in front of their their station at Alade Police station, Balogun street Somolu. The environment do not seem safe and my car is a at risk of vandalism and worse getting stolen if it remains there overnight
Their intimidation was for me to be extorted and since I didn’t give them the chance to they decided to lay their hands on me and impound my car. One even called me a criminal in my face and threatened to shoot at me.
Please I need this post to reach the right authorities. I have called the police hotline designated to handle cases like this and for over 2 hours they kept telling me they will give me a call back. So at this point I am In the dark.
Please help me tag and bring the right authorities attention to this post. @AbimbolaShotayo @PoliceNG_CRU @CspIniedu @PoliceNG
I will be attaching video evidence of my assault.

I still remember when many of these students had absolutely no idea what Web3 jobs were. Today, I've personally interviewed some of them and heard stories I could only have hoped for two years ago.
Tella has earned $15,000+, Heritage $10,000+, Tochi $10,000+, Joshmanny $7,300+, and Fisayo $5,000+, and mannnnyyyyy moreeee!
When data report and analysis came in, we discovered that these guys have made over $100,000+ in earnings...
From over 1,500 students gathered in one hall to seeing young people build real careers, this is the kind of impact I envisioned when we started Rebirth.
And listen... we're only getting started.
Knowledge Pays.
Two years ago today, November 3, 2024, over 1,500 students gathered in one hall at Adeleke University for The Rebirth Odyssey.
Students received laptops, phones, cash prizes, and other resources, but more importantly, thousands of conversations about the opportunities available in Web3 began that day.
For many students, it was their introduction to an industry they would eventually find opportunities in.
Two years later, students within our Adeleke University community have collectively reported earning over $100,000 from opportunities they've pursued since engaging with Rebirth.
These figures are based on student-reported earnings, and behind them are real stories of individuals who took what they learned, developed their skills, and began building careers for themselves.
As we celebrate this milestone, we're also looking ahead.
On February 1, 2027, the Rebirth Web3 Jobs Program begins, introducing a more structured eight-week training experience designed to help aspiring professionals develop relevant skills, understand the Web3 job market, and position themselves for career opportunities.
What began as a gathering of over 1,500 students continues to remind us why we started: to create access, develop talent, and help more people discover what's possible.

It seems attackers have renewed their focus on Nigeria’s financial sector. I’ve personally heard about a couple of organizations that have suffered security breaches recently but have kept them under wraps. Now, I’m seeing another person’s status seemingly confirming the same trend.
Peace be unto you if you work in any of these targeted organizations. You’ll need it.
