It's as if you people don't know what is worthy of front page again. Osi ati iranu.

That is if we are talking about mizzles and machine gun.

Now we are dealing with nuclear bombs and bioweapons

They have too. They have more nuclear bombs than USA.

Russia is a strong country militarily. They posses some of the worlds advanced and dangerous weapons.

Japan announced herself to world when she defeated Russia at the sea in 1905, it was a total annihilation.

If war should breakout today I think countries like Japan, India and the other allies would support USA. What is war without allies? Destruction.

Some people are trying to re colonize Nigeria. This country is in the mouth of the hungry dogs..

The IG should pls stop pretending, as if he does not know it is brothers planning to attack.

They should do same for local government. I think that is even more important.

Laycon is now verified on Tiktok. A star will always be a star, we don't struggle to shine...

A mother's prayer is important in every child's life... I felt laycon mum's prayer. God bless all the real, caring and faithful mothers, may the good Lord keep you for us....

Great feat

Reminds of the woman they call iya aje ( the witch mother) in ado ekiti. All her 9 children are medical doctors. I really like families like that.

This is the real *when the gbedu enter body*

I like what khafi said about this toxic people. She said the simple but heavy truth. You can't bully people and now soft pedal because it's your favorite. It's wrong, be kind to people no matter who you support..

You are too paranoid! Always thinking everyone hates Erica or saying it out of spite. Na you Sabi sha as you self no too stable.

Kwa Kwa kwa

U go and watch movies

You're the movie I like watching .

Talk and stop cancelling joor.
I like entertainment .

Lol Tati tey for Kuje o.

Na treasonable felony she commit ni?

Eating ipakere!!!!!

So why did you post it here,if you didn't care?

The world's population is over 7billion!
Social media users alone is over 5billion!
So if she leaves nobody would notice. Because it's a big space.
She needs to understand that too much pressure on herself is deadly and dangerous to her. So she should live her life and stop comparing or thinking she's better than all of them.

Life is too short and people move on easily now!!!

Erica threatens to quit social media..
Me: Who cares���

Trump is someone who acts differently. But I think the media really did a lot of bad imaging about him. Right from campaigns to his victory 4yrs ago. He was never liked by some people and the fact can't be hidden that he has a large followership. Not that the Clinton's, Obama's and the likes are good people too but the media really did a lot of good reporting about them. Take for instance the clinton scandal (what if it was trump)!!!

I think we need to address this issue of tribalism and illiteracy. Just saw a video where an MC shaded tolanibaj at prince Guinness homecoming event. This is so tribalistic and uncalled for, very wrong. Its possible you don't like or love someone but at least respect them.

It the audacity; like wtf👿😠... If this is not madness, I don't know what is. If I start with these villagers that live at the back of the canal, they'll start crying like a stupid goat. This is soooo shameful and he's sitting there like a clown🤡. Bunch of toys garbage🤮. pic.twitter.com/CdK9ToO6Tc

When Tope Awotona founded Atlanta-based online scheduling startup Calendly in 2013, he ran into a common problem for black founders: securing VC funds. The experience taught him to stretch every dollar so that he'd never have to rely on outside funding. He credits his family in Nigeria for showing him the way. --As told to Cameron Albert-Deitch

In Lagos, there's huge wealth disparity. You see people who are incredibly wealthy--who ship their cars to Paris to get them serviced. You see people who maybe get one meal every two days. And for the most part, they live side by side.

It's a city of amazing contrast. It's crazy cramped. It once took me two hours to drive a mile. But people love that chaos.

My family lived in the suburbs. My maternal grandma built an import-export textile business that became very successful--she owned many homes and sent all her kids to college, despite not having a degree herself. My mom co-owned a small pharmacy with my aunt, in addition to holding down a day job at the central bank of Nigeria. My dad was a microbiologist who, one day, up and left his job at Unilever to forge his own path. He started many businesses--at one point, he was a distributor of industrial chemicals. My parents were my role models.

When I was 12, I watched my dad die in a carjacking. These guys followed him home and demanded the keys to his car. He threw the keys at them. And they shot him.


If that had happened in the United States, I would have gone through a lot of therapy. In Nigeria, it happened on Friday and I went to school on Monday. For six months, I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep. That insomnia has carried on to my adult life. I'll probably have it forever.


In February, I visited my dad's gravesite. It was my first time going back there since he died. I felt like he didn't get a chance to complete his work. There was a part of me, from a very early age, that wanted to redeem him.

In 1996, my family moved to Atlanta. It's a big city like Lagos, and it also has crazy traffic. That's where the similarities end. Lagos has an absolute absence of law, order, and structure. Lagosians don't think any rules apply to them: If they see a line, they go around it, and rules are suggestions, more or less. Nigerians love that: "If I'm assertive and aggressive enough, I can get away with whatever I want."

I raided my bank account and 401(k) to launch Calendly in 2013. Eventually, I ran out of money and started to seek VC funding. I had a working product, and customers using it, and everyone said no. Meanwhile, I watched other people who fit a different "profile" get money thrown at them for shitty ideas. Those VCs were ignorant and shortsighted. The only thing I could attribute it to was that I was black.

Many people would get upset about that, but I wanted to prove them wrong. I grew up in a country in which all the people in power looked a lot like me. A city in which you can will anything to happen.

The whole experience made me hate raising money. But it forced me to become resourceful, scrappy, and maniacally focused. I learned how to stretch each dollar.

Today, I'm very grateful. The business is approaching $30 million in recurring revenue, and growing more than 100 percent year-over-year. It's been profitable since 2016. And I'm the majority owner.


Being a foreigner really helped. I grew up in a country where 99 percent of the people looked like me, so race wasn't something I consciously thought about. It's good to have that mentality. You can dwell on all the reasons you shouldn't do something or why it's harder for you.

Or you can just go out and do it.
