Something we will learn (someday) in Nigeria is that being 'enlightened' or 'smart' is something that is evidenced by the choices you make everyday, and not merely an identity layer or a brand that you wear to nourish your ego.

Smart people change their minds when they see…

- No income tax
- No capital gains tax
- One of the safest cities in the world
- One of the cleanest cities in the world
- High salaries
- Great schools and facilities
- World class healthcare
- Family friendly
- No toxic culture war
- Low wokeness index
- Excellent travel hub…

Congratulations Tunde Onakoya

60 hours 🇳🇬

Dear Shawn (Shawn Martinez), there’s no world record without you. Together, for 60 hours, we showed the world what true collaboration means, trumping competition. We picked each other up during tough moments, both mentally and physically. And you did it with so much grace.

This…

It is possible to do great things from a small place❤️.

I like unreasonable people. George Bernard Shaw - “The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.” I wrote an article on this many years ago.

“The majority of businessmen are incapable of original thinking because they are unable to escape from the tyranny of reason.” - David Ogilvy, Confessions of an Advertising Man.

This is also the biggest problem with African venture ideas. People feel they have to be reasonable.

In constant pursuit of the sublime ✨

As the guy who thought it was possible to do great things from a small place.

Good or bad, yes and it will make people around you equally change, there are some jokes you will never be able to make again.

We know the characters in a novel aren't real—but our imagination makes them so.

We'll learn to do this with AI too, and when that happens we'll start reading AI writing:

Get activism & political bias out of tech companies.
