Forget prayer, it’s not possible to really put in work and say you won’t succeed in whatever you do. Ko possible rara😂. You’re where you are today because of the work you actually put in, not prayer or anything. Ko lo far😂 I remember one time last year when OLAMIDE BADDO was dancing every day on TikTok to push his new music, and one random guy had the effrontery to call him a “TIKTOKER” & he replied, “If you get business, no promote am big boy!”😂 If a whole FEMI OTEDOLA can dance on TikTok with CUPPY just to sell his book, and you’re somewhere thinking prayers will save you, you never sabi the wahala wey you enter. Na all those student fellowship presidents for uni wey no go read, but you go see them dey pray up and down dey amuse me pass 😭😭

You can now discover homegrown alternatives to the software you're already using on AIB! 🇳🇬❤️ Whether you're using Vercel, Stripe, Resend, Google Analytics, or other global products, you can search for African-built alternatives and explore what they're offering. For example, searching for Vercel currently brings up @pxxl_space, @brimblehq, Aeroplane by @akinkunmi, @dbrij_hq, @Openstead, and @helicarrierhq. You don't have to stop using international products, but I think it's worth knowing what people in our ecosystem are building and giving them a try. Explore: africaisbuilding.com/product…

If you're a Nigerian developer, whether you're just starting out or you've been building for years, there's so much you can build and learn with homegrown technologies 🇳🇬❤️ We have: 🇳🇬 @Dbrij_hq & @pxxl_space instead of Vercel for hosting. 🇳🇬 @StackshiftCloud for VPS hosting and management, as an alternative to providers like Hostinger and tools like Coolify. 🇳🇬 @Dbrij_hq & @sendly_ai_ instead of Resend for business and transactional emails. 🇳🇬 @cencori instead of OpenRouter and Cloudflare AI Gateway for AI model access and management. 🇳🇬 Sabilytics.com instead of Google Analytics and DataFast for website analytics. 🇳🇬 @OutRayTunnel for tunnelling local services, as an alternative to tools like ngrok and Cloudflare Tunnel. 🇳🇬 @Bachs_hq for international payments, as an alternative to Stripe. And these are just the ones I can remember right now! I'm not saying you must stop using international tools. I'm saying we have people right here building alternatives worth trying, supporting, and contributing to. With better local pricing that fits us. I know I'm missing so many other products. What other Nigerian-built products and their global alternatives should be on this list? Drop them in the replies! 👇 And if you're building something in Nigeria or anywhere across Africa, please submit your project to Africa Is Building so more people can discover what you're working on ❤️ africaisbuilding.com/submit

This very scene proves Odin was an out-and-out liar. In Ragnarok, Odin looked Thor in the face and said the hammer was only ever meant to help him focus his own power, insisting the lightning was his own ability all along. Then Steve Rogers, a mortal man from Brooklyn with zero Asgardian DNA, picks up Mjolnir and immediately starts dropping divine lightning bolts directly out of the sky. Turns out the lightning was in the metal the entire time.

Does anyone else stir their tea or coffee before putting the milk in instead of after? (I do because the spoons are near the kettle, but the milk is in the fridge on the other side of the kitchen.)

I'm 29. Solo founder from Brazil, based in Barcelona. Looking to connect with more marketers & indie hackers!
