This is very rich coming from a lecturer that failed me because I didn’t follow the exact calculation methodology (for binary operations) from a specific textbook (despite still getting the answers right).
No sir, you’re a huge reason I dropped out. You don’t get to famz me.

Nigerian University lecturers are evil and crazy for no reason.
I remember when Mowete never showed up for any of his actual class periods during the weekday.
This man then set up class for 7am on Saturdays. He didn’t always show up for this either.

October 20, 2020 broke a lot of us, to varying degrees. I see it in everybody’s eyes. Something has left our souls.

The protest at Muri Okunola is a bad idea:
- We can be easily ignored as we were until the toll gate was blocked.
- It’s an enclosed space. People can’t efficiently disperse if something wrong happens.
- A dress code makes people easily identifiable. Easier to kill/kidnap.

They have the power to shut down centralised exchanges that use payment processors (who are already under fire). But they cannot shut down non-custodial wallets & P2P exchanges that don’t handle fiat. No one can. That is the power of #Bitcoin

The disbanding of SARS is only the first step in our commitment to extensive police reforms in order to ensure that the primary duty of the police and other law enforcement agencies remains the protection of lives and livelihood of our people.

The internet is creating a middle class in Nigeria. It’s still early days but it’s happening.
There are now so many different ways young adults are earning a (somewhat comfortable) living that simply wasn’t possible just 10 years ago.

Nigerians KNOW women (in Nigeria) get raped a lot.
Like we all KNOW. We somehow don’t know the rapists but we know women aren’t safe.
They also only know of a handful actual public accusations (whether false or not), yet their primary worry is the chance of getting accused.

I just randomly remembered this and I can’t understand the motivation for this kind of stupid behaviour.
They’re just power crazy for no damn reason. And it’s not like they’ve made any meaningful contribution to modern technology (I was doing Engr) in recent times.

If you can understand scholarships dedicated to those who cannot afford education. Or opportunities created specifically for black/African people. Then you should be able to easily understand women focused programmes.

When women say that it’s hard to get into tech. We blame them - say foolish things like “they’re just not good at it”, “nobody helps men get into tech, why is there special treatment for women”etc. meanwhile we know fully well that shit like this happens everyday.

Our president doesn’t care. He spent a lot of his life being a [ruthless] military leader. He has also been president 3 times, I’m sure you can’t convince him it’s not his birthright.
He probably feels like we should be grateful he’s even doing this “democracy” charade.

I find that what a lot of people struggle with is starting things. Going from nothing to something...especially when there are *so* many potential steps to take [all at the same time] can be overwhelming.
I now see why “just start” might not be particularly useful advice.

All that has been spent is roughly $50,000. Look at what is possible with *just* $50k.
That’s like a Senator’s monthly salary, isn’t it?
In less than a month, different groups of young Nigerians have built a rapid response legal and welfare system that spans more than 20 states.
But Nigerian governments have had decades and billions and hundreds of civil servants, yet we have NOTHING to show for it.
