Go Congo.

Will be rooting for them to qualify. They were the better team

Make dem sha make good use of the slot. I no wan hear say dem no qualify

Nwabali needs to be careful.

Be like e dey cross that line. or maybe na my eye dey pain me

Lmao.

Game over

With Nwabali's luck, I dont think we'll win this penalty.

The boys even seem jittery

The ref is definitely shady.

Blowing when congo has an attack?

Osimhen no know say the boys don give up and dem dey play for penalty

No be own goal be that.

Guys, luck wan dey on Naija side small today oo

raumdeuter:
No wonder Osimehn dey always vex

Na him suppose dey pick team cos all these players go just dey suffer am for field

See the contrast between this game and the last one. He even gives confidence to the players

See person wey una talk say get aerial threat.

Nod ball like Lukaku

Omo make una no dey yab Osimhen again oo.

I dont know what i'm watching. No threat whatsoever. One man team

Even the midfield is totally non-existent

Nwabali is truly gull1ble

Ibime:
There is no way Osimhen would be taken off unless he was injured or he slapped someone in the dressing room

Neither option is off the table. The slapping someone might explain why we look shell shocked like something happened in the dressing room at halftime

Did he come out after the break?

A passionate guy like Osimhen will at least be on the bench to provide morale to his team mates.

I hope you're not right with the slap or fight thing oo. E go worse oo if we kan lose this match

Unlimited22:
We have been hanging on for like 10 minutes

We are losing all 50-50s

I have never liked the guy. Even in club football

Guy annoys me a lot

Chukwueze finally off....Ibime go rest now

These boys are getting less confident by the minute. Wetin happen

Roland17:
Can someone strip Chukwueze of that rubbish headband wen him wear

Lol.

Na wetin I dey use recognise the guy. Well, asides his one-legged football of course

Nwabali keeps acting like this is a joke

Goal!!!.

At least we benefit from deflection this time

pocohantas:
Lol! The one I know is actually fine on sight. Very intelligent too, but unhinged.

What does this mean?

Oh...that the camera is the problem. I imagine the misconduct was some rude or combative behaviour right?

GloriousGbola:
I am not the person to ask unfortunately

I have barely followed this story at all

All I know is that an ally cross dressing androgynous tech bro ceo knacked and dumped a self identified les Bian who went scorched earth on him on twitter.

I think this is one of the pyjama parties referenced where Ezra hung out with women of allegedly feminist persuasion.

I think they all belong to some of those Nigerian feminist bodies.

That's his house plus being their major financier, he probably assembled them all for the get-together. Afterall, he's still the piper at the end of the day.

A40:
This Ezra babe na scorned ex wey no wan pay back her gbese. Ezra sef Bleep up. In which world dem dey borrow Naija babe money? You don already spoil her retirement plan now you still wan collect bar. That was naive on his part

Laslas all her cappings na the ranting of a woman that was dumped. Whatever character flaws he had she was well aware and it wasn't a problem while the going was good

This is why sometimes e good make you allow babe do the dumping so she go fit leave you alone

Ive just been on twitter and for what it's worth the whole drama is really looking like a scorned ex brouhaha.

Turns out she also has sick tweets herself in those days and even indulged him with some of his depraved tweets then. Also turns out she slept with the subordinate in question who she has even doxxed in one of her manic episode.

Even the disloyal and treacherous Kiki Mordi has thrown him under the bus despite being alleged to have been her major financier all these while

Nasty nasty, all of them. They can all go to h3ll including the Ezra.

Ibime:
He probably has stock options vesting with Stripe paid as consideration in the buyout which are contingent on good leaver/bad leaver clauses that required him to serve as CTO for a number of years. Stripe would not be able to make him a bad leaver based on Tweets he made before the deal so this is a straightforward investigation where an employee must come forward to make a claim that he abused her. So far none has done so, only unrelated 3rd parties. If Stripe want to go ahead and exit him for their image, it's a win for him as he gets accelerated vesting without having to work for it.

Interestingly most vesting period of acquisitions of these type are 5 years - at least that's what it used to be with founders inclusive of the cliff.

Paystack was fully acquired by Stripe in October/November 2020, which may likely mean he's due and he may just step away without any serious consequences.

Anyway, I hope he's learned his lessons if this wasnt enough

Theflint1:
That's the only thing they can really build a case around.

Exactement.

Given the circumstances, he likely anticipated this outcome, which is why I suspect it will result in a relatively soft landing for him

They suspend him, Internal corporate action begins - The company either does it or hires an independent firm to do the investigations based on company policy or Internally, the HR/Legal team questions the lady involved

Most likely scenario - confirms she was a willing participant, and states that no coercion occurred, if anything, she may indicate she initiated more of it. She may also mention her existing plans to resign and how that was part of how the situation was being managed.

The guy is also questioned - He admits to the misconduct, apologizes, and his account aligns with hers. The disciplinary committee reviews the findings and issues a proportionate sanction - likely a formal warning, mandatory ethics training, withheld bonuses, docked pay, and/or a temporary suspension. The worst-case outcome is termination, though I think is unlikely. It's still a private company as far as we all know

The point of all the above is that it becomes documented and the company protect itself against any future liabilities given how it's been handled and they followed the proper channel of addressing the concern while giving him a controlled, soft landing, Win - Win for everyone. Of course, that'll be in the event that she's the only one.

GloriousGbola:
oyibo no dey play with sexual misconduct

before someone sues stripe 10 years from now. and all those stoopid twitter posts will look very very very bad in a court case.

what can go wrong bragging about how my gloriousgbola brings all the ho es in the office to the yard

I dont know men, I suspect its the angle of soft landing for him.

Cos according to the rumors and inside gist, The subordinate was alleged to have been the one who propositioned him and for a long time too, made sacrifices for it to happen and even defended their paramour with the other scorned woman.

There's also the part where they said she'll likely resign by end of year. Cant see how all of these doesnt give him the soft landing required. Its probably why they stuck to the sexual misconduct allegation.

Anyway, they're not a public company so I suspect it'll be easier for them to avoid all the usual scrutiny in this case

GloriousGbola:
https://www.nairaland.com/8561217/paystack-suspends-co-founder-ezra-olubi#137469923

there will probably be a full scale investigate

unbelievable liquidity don leak

1-0 for feminazi coven

Actually, its 0-1 against the feminazi as he's alleged to be one of their major backbones and financiers.

He even put up a Kiki Mordi stan on his bio before he deleted the account. Most of the people criticizing him now come from the "misogynist camp in their usual “misogynist vs. feminist” back-and-forth.

What I did find interesting however was the primary reason for his suspension. It centered more on the alleged sexual misconduct involving a subordinate rather than the other disturbing allegations. Cant say he wont have seen that one coming

BlueRayDick:
For people like elder that thinks earning online via remote work insulate them from effect of the new tax regime , Taiwo Oyedele has this to say to you :

https://www.nairaland.com/8560838/tax-nigeria-partners-over-100

This isnt a new development as far as i'm aware. Nigeria like most countries (asides the US) taxes based on residency.

The problem however in Nigeria's case is that it's hardly ever applied in the right way. Even when they identify individual that should have been captured in the tax net, those officials just solicit for bribes and keep it moving.

That's very likely what's going to happen here. They identify them and some pockets in the tax office gets the cut

GloriousGbola:
They were ignored because at the time he was just an unknown weirdo

If an unknown decides to tweet celebration of pedophilia, it will likely pass under the radar. Let a celebrity do same and he will get canceled immediately

The real question is what the investors of paystack are going to do about their unhinged cto.

Unknowns would also get a similar reaction in today's twitter. People have been doxxed for less. Maybe not on a large scale like a celebrity would or how his own has been, But there would be some viral and vitriol reaction nonetheless.

About Paystack, Not sure I have the full details but wasnt paystack acquired by stripe. Think he already sold his stake and is just in advisory capacity. Well maybe he steps down. Its probably the least that happens at this stage.

iamoyindamola:
Is ezra a writer too
He said someone have exaggerated boobs he hope his own daughter doesn't develop till 18
Do you know what that mean, he can possibly molest his daughter, all those tweets are imaginations he has done some, someone like this will see groping as normal thing

I dont think you've been to all those 4chan, subreddits and some of those dark sites in those days. And being a tech guy, I suspect he spent a lot of time there in those days. Those unhinged kind of messages were typical then.

Look, those tweets were largely ignored at the time he tweeted it for a reason. It's never going to happen in today's twitter. Like I said, I do have my doubts about the actual acts but of course, I could be wrong

iamoyindamola:
He can't have a dark imagination without thinking of achieving some of them
He's done some of these things he tweeted probably in his teen age

Not really.

Stephen King, Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker and other horror writers would like a word then

A40:
My brother this preeq if you no control am ehn. The kin wahala e go put you.

All this drama at the root of it is just lack of D discipline.

Because for starters you will not be wylin like that. Secondly you will not have a harem of useless radfems seeking access to your funds and social capital. Men are taught to get money but we are not taught about the sheer volume of low quality women that will flock around you.

What that nigga tweeted in his mid 20s. Omo. Nobody holy pass I agree but when e don dey enter pdf territory. Omo na OYO

Make e just go chill for one Pacific Island the next 2 years

Well, there’s still no concrete evidence of sexual misconduct based on actual actions rather than tweets.

Even the scorned woman in question admitted that she was the one who initiated the relationship. Even, the alleged subordinate he's supposedly involved with was also alleged to have been the one who approached him for their paramour.

It’s probably the same reason he tends to be surrounded by rather average looking women. If anything, the only allegations that might warrant genuine scrutiny are the ones related to bestiality and pedophilia.

I still believe a significant portion of those tweets were attention-seeking, dark humor, or shock-value posts. Then again, perhaps he’s simply a bit unhinged.

raumdeuter:
He can claim he was shitposting as long as there is no one who came out to say she was molested and cats d not speak

He has a wild mind and tweeted stupid stuffs

If you tweet that I stole 100M from CBN, Or I beat the hell out of Tiwa Savage does not mean anything until a crime is established besides the fact that you have a twisted mind

The bolded is what I think it is but at the end of the day you never know with these folks especially eccentric characters like him.

Why does everyone think he does all of these things. Writing about it or tweeting about it is not enough proof that he indulged or indulges in it.

All he has to do is provide a negative HIV result and it throws a lot of doubt into many of those tweets. Probably very wrong from a moral standpoint, maybe psychotic even but I dont think he'll be silly enough to put it out there if he was.

I think many of those tweets may have just been dark jokes he was tweeting at the time or for the shock factor of it. There's a reason most of the tweets didnt get such attention at the time.
