A few days ago, I made the decision to protect my tweets following a coordinated wave of falsehoods, personal insults, and even curses directed at me. Sadly, the nature of discourse on social media—especially Twitter (X)—often swings in a binary fashion: “you’re either with us or against us.” But it doesn’t have to be that way.

To those suggesting I’ve been deleting tweets, I simply say this: I don’t owe you that explanation, nor do I have the time or interest to engage in such distractions. This space has always been, for me, a place to share, learn, and unwind. If I find a tweet that lacks context or no longer serves clarity, I’m happy to remove it. That doesn’t change my lifelong commitment to public accountability—a principle I believe remains one of the strongest levers for a better society.

Twitter, for all its promise, has sadly become a poisoned well—where anonymity, monetized virality, and troll farms work together to tear down honest voices and raise toxicity.

My hope for younger Nigerians is to resist the harmful stereotypes that shrink their worldview and undermine their potential. I have been shaped by friendships and support from people across faiths, races, and genders.

What I long for is a civic culture where people respect differing views, hold government accountable through facts and data, and collectively build a country where everyone can thrive.

If you don’t follow my work in BudgIT, Tracka, or Ogbomoso but choose to show up with vile commentary, chances are you’ve already been muted or blocked. These are not acts of malice—they’re simply boundaries.

Wishing you clarity, growth, and peace.

As a business man if there is a space you should avoid is the political space. (that is if you can)
Because making public statement against or for a political party or individual will definitely come back to affect your business either positive or negatively.

So next time watch what you say. when you say it and how you say it.
