Award of the worst bank in Nigeria goes to @gtbank, very unseriouse & unresponsive customer services both online/ offline.
If u're thinking of opening a business account please don't ever think of GTBANK else u'll cry had I known.
Don't say I didn't warn you
@cenbank
😭😭😭
To buttress this fact, the fake bot account @GTBankhlps_care has taken over responding the @gtbank tweeter mentions for long & they don't care about it & dangers it portend to their customers. Other responsible businesses respond to their mention, scam account respond to @gtbank
6 months ago, a close associate and a team member, who is also undertaking one of my IT project, opened a domiciliary account at @gtbank , paid in dollar and was issued a dollar card for his online transactions purchases and renewals of domains,hosting and others.

1) Nigeria 🇳🇬 seeks to draw a clear line between #cryptocurrencies & digital assets.

With this, it joins the likes of South Korea 🇰🇷, Hong Kong 🇭🇰, and Singapore 🇸🇬.

According to them:

Digital assets = stablecoins, #NFTs, and CBDCs
Cryptocurrencies = #Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc
2) This development comes from the head of the Nigerian Securities and Exchange Commission, Lamisil Yuguda.

The Nigerian SEC isn't really enthusiastic about the proliferation of #crypto assets within the country's borders.
3) And this reflects in its instructions to local banks not to provide services to companies engaged in crypto activities.

However, #crypto isn't banned in the country. ⚠️

Our Story About The Money Wives!
Twitter was agog yesterday with news of a barbaric tradition called 'money wives' - many #Nigerians were shocked that this thing happens and poured encomium on the supposed 'exposer'.
I would have kept quiet but when some men started praising the ImageImageImageImage
'exposer' and calling out women for their failure (check image 2) not to expose this, I quickly opened up.
Between 2018 to 2020, we advocated against this and even travelled to Cross River (we raised money among ourselves - me, Franca and Desola) on more than ten times to meet
with victims and community leaders - I recall one crying to me on the second visit that she was taken to the shrine to swear against talking to us again or 'thunder will strike and burn her to death."
See, we were threatened by the community leaders and at a time, one violent man

PETER OBI BRUISED MY EGO!
When people say Peter obi has no structure, I tell them I am one of his structures.
Several years ago, as one of the popular evangelist in Africa, I move around at airports with lots of people as my entourage.
#PeterObi4President2023
#ConscienceRally
One day I was traveling back to lagos from Abuja, they had just dropped me at the airport and I was going to board my flight . As I walked through the tarmac with one of the FAAN protocol staffs pulling my hand luggage behind me,
I turned and behold saw someone that looked like governor Peter Obi coming behind and pushing his hand luggage himself.
I turned to the protocol guy and said, that guy looks like governor Peter Obi,He answered and said," yes o na him, e no dey allow anybody help am with him bag”

*TIME TO REASON TOGETHER*
- *UNDERSTANDING THE TREND OF WAR*

I want our people, both the pro and anti agitations factions on the field and the social media, to understand the trend of war.

*NOTE*

It is always a trend.
...
From Libya to Syria to Yemen to CAR to Somalia to Liberia to Sierra Leone to Ivory Coast to Rwanda and Sudan.
Here are the stages:

*PLOT* *1*

People's protests or agitations

*PLOT* *2*

Many try to encourage them based on their conceived interests.
Police & Army are called in to disperse protesters/agitators.

*PLOT* *3*

Mob retaliates and burns down government and influential leaders' assets.

*PLOT* *4*

Army and police withdraw due to international pressure. They begin to guard their barracks only.

Glory be to the One on Whom our souls are in His Hands, avert the Fitnah (temptation, trial; sedition, civil strife, conflict) that we are in. Don't forsake us because of our evil or sins. No one with a conscience wants to see his fellow countrymen in great pain and sorrow.
Our reality indeed is truly excruciating.

“I believe that the world ought to be governed by some morals, no matter what you call it. Without it, I think a chaotic state will ensue. This may be in the form of religion or some form of accepted norm-whatever.
“It must be accepted norms of behaviour.” — Abubakar Gimba

O #Nigerians, we cannot ignore the reality that we need each other… yes, history and geography were imposed on us, but we can liberate ourselves through science and technology, the age we are now celebrating.

@channelstv Dear @DrIsaPantami, I and other #Nigerians would love to know what protocols @nimc_ng put in place at all thier centres across the country. Your ministry @FMoCDENigeria is responsible for @nimc_ng. Who is responsible for ensuring that #COVID19 protocols are put in place?...
@channelstv @DrIsaPantami @nimc_ng @FMoCDENigeria “The greatness of a leader is measured by the achievements of the led. This is the ultimate test of his effectiveness.”

— Omar N. Bradley

This quote simple tells us that your statement "You know how our citizens are, we need attitudinal change" measures your achievements...
@channelstv @DrIsaPantami @nimc_ng @FMoCDENigeria If Nigerians need attitudinal change then you Sir, the leadership of @FMoCDENigeria needs attitudinal change also.

Sir, Nigerians are not mad people. If you give Nigerians a disorganised registeration process, Nigerians or any other national will give you chaos, vice versa.

HOW TO HAVE 1 BTC BY THE END OF 2021👇

2020 was an amazing year, a lot happened in every sector, and especially in the Crypto industry.

We saw a lot of developmennts, changes, upgrades on #blockchains, #DeFi trends ATL's and ATH's of various #cryptocurrencies
I remember telling some "Big Men" in April to buy #bitcoin, these were guys who had the means to buy 2 BTC at that time when it was less than $5,000🤭 they responded like "Who is this small girl talking"?

Well we know the story, now #BTC is over $37K at the time of writing.
I remember when I started BitSave as a platform to educate and help people save in #bitcoin, and beat the inflation in the ₦.



I remember having classes with a few set of people to show them how to beat the inflation in ₦.

Are @jidesanwoolu directives being enforced by @followlasg? How effective is public adherence to #COVID19 regulations and is @NCDCgov effectively building itself as a credible govt agency ?

Are govt MDA at the Fed, State & LG levels observing these protocols.

#threadPNG2050
Stopped at Domino's pizza #ikorodu to get pizza for my in-laws. Made use of the app so I only had to pick up. Got in to pick up and there was a crowd at there and at #Coldstone.

If the govt believes that #COVID19 is serious then why is it slack with enforcing it's protocol.
On my way to Ikorodu almost all the BRT's had 3 - 10% of commuters using their nose mask. In smaller buses almost no one wore nose mask. No @PoliceNG or @followlastma officer wore a nose mask.

I think private establishments enforce some of these regulation better than the govt

PETROL PRICING: THE MYTH, THE PUBLIC PASSION & THE FACTS.

#THREAD

#EnoughIsEnough #MrPresident #Buhari #Nigerians #IFB
Petroleum pricing is a sensitive issue in Nigeria because the various past governments got it all wrong abinitio, and this has been because of the wrongly perceived and sustained notion that 'we are a rich nation'.
In truth, no government has any business selling or retailing petrol, diesel and kerosene to its citizens.

cw: rape

Men who rape don’t care where they rape - sacred space or secular space.

The rape and murder of 22-year-old Vera Uwaila Omozuwa in church has sparked outrage across #Nigeria. And is a reminder that women are safe nowhere.

#JusticeforUwa google.com/amp/s/amp.theg…
Osai Ojigho, the director for Amnesty International in Nigeria, said the horrific incident “resonates because even in the spaces that women and girls should be safest from gender-based violence, the home, the schools and now places of worship, it is getting there”.
#JusticeForUwa
The rape and brutal way Uwa was murdered was one of several cases in the past week which have led to street protests, an online petition signed by thousands and the Twitter hashtag #WeAreTired #Nigeria

Nigeria has made a lot of progress in preparing and responding to disease outbreaks and epidemics. I remember my early days of public health; some 15yrs ago it's @WHONigeria that prepared and shared the #weeklyepidemiological report for Nigeria... a thread!
1/20
#Clap4NCDC
For every outbreak or public health emergency in Nigeria, we heard more about @WHO who appeared to be at the forefront with @Fmohnigeria and its agencies; old #NPI which merged with @NphcdaNG fought #polio with the support of @WHO @UNICEF @Rotary etc.
#Clap4NCDC 2/20
With time the #Epidemiology unit of @Fmohnigeria grew in strength and capacity to lead the response. They also produced and sent out the weekly epidemiology reports for Nigeria, which hitherto was shared by @WHONigeria in collaboration with FMOH for sure. #Clap4NCDC

Here is a briefing for all those "impressed" by the #tearsandswindle enacted by #LittleNapoleon in this clip in Calabar yesterday. It's not the 1st time: On 17 Jan 2017, @ben_ayade announced abolition of all forms of taxation for low-income earners in Cross River state.
According to his spokesman, Christian Ita, @ben_ayade made the order after signing the 2017 budget of the state into law, saying: “I am sounding the last warning that henceforth I don’t want to hear any1 who earns less than N50, 000 a month being taxed in any form in the state."
On that occasion, @ben_ayade also cried. But if he had occasion to "abolish" again in May 2020, the same taxes he had abolished with the same words & tears in 2017, it is because the 2017 abolition didn't work & the 2020 abolition won't work. Let's stick with the tears 1st....
