Father, we come to You on behalf of our sister, who has been walking through a heavy season. You see the weight she's carrying, and You know what it has cost her these past days. You are close to the brokenhearted and You save those who are crushed in spirit, so we ask You to draw near to her right now. Where she feels drained, renew her strength. Where her heart is heavy, lift it gently. Where her mind is loud and restless, speak peace, the kind that doesn't depend on circumstances making sense. Remind her that this low place is not her permanent address and that You have not left her in it. Send people who will sit with her, speak kindly to her and carry her when she can't carry herself. Give her rest tonight and let tomorrow meet her with a little more light than today. Whatever is behind this season, we place it in Your hands. Turn her low into dancing in Your time and let her feel that she is seen, loved and held. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Been at my lowest since last week Tuesday. Pray for me when you see this. That’s all I need right now.

Following the Midnight Foundation's recent wind-down of its developer relations team, my time at Midnight has come to an end. I built the developer education and AI developer tools, a dozen-video series explaining how ZKP and network implementation, a certification academy, and an MCP server downloaded 10,000+ times. Some of my favourite moments were the conversations, from fireside chats with builders to the hours spent alongside partner teams shipping on the network. Thank you to the team, the developer community, and every partner I worked with. Before Midnight, I spent over two years at Axelar working hands-on with partner teams building cross-chain applications. I designed their integrations, reviewed their code, and wrote the reference implementation developers used to send messages between blockchains. Before developer relations, I spent over four years as a backend engineer, building systems serving tens of thousands of users, data pipelines, and enterprise software for banks and telecoms. I also founded Web3 Afrika, a community of builders. That engineering background is what I bring to developer relations: I can sit with a team, read their code, and help them ship to production. Now I'm looking for my next role in developer relations, forward-deployed engineering, developer experience, developer support, solutions engineering, or AI engineering. I'm based in UK with a UK Global Talent visa, so no sponsorship is needed in the UK, and I'm open to remote or hybrid. Available now. If your team is hiring, or you know one that is, I'd love to hear from you. An intro or a repost would mean a lot. Portfolio and CV in the reply, kindly help RT

Explaining your story while you have not won is a waste of time. Win first and let your victory do the explaining.

7,000 drivers in 2 days. 🚌 I built Lagos Run in my spare time, and you turned it into a whole Lagos traffic jam. Thank you for every score, every "pooon", every bug report. Big updates are coming: agbero, LASTMA, new buses, and an Independence Day paint on Oct 1. 🇳🇬 Follow @eureka_seamless so you don't miss them 👇 danfo.horpey.dev #LagosRun

‘God Save Me’. That was the graffiti (pictured below) imprinted on a car by an unknown African migrant held hostage at a trafficking house in Ghut Shaal, Janzur, in north-western Libya. In truth, only God can save any migrant who gets stuck in Libya after abandonment by heartless Libyan traffickers and kidnappers or arrest and detention by the police. But the mortal that I only am, I am determined to save as many migrants as possible from asking God to save them after embarking on an ill-advised trip to Libya. Therefore, starting tomorrow and for the next 20 days, I’ll be on a campaign of short videos enlightening the public on why they should steer clear of Libya. These videos will be on all social media platforms, but my primary targets are Tiktok and Facebook, where traffickers often hoodwink unsuspecting youth with fake promises of a better life. For the first 10 days, my messages will be released in English (morning) and Pidgin (evening). The final 10 days will be made in Hausa (morning), Igbo (afternoon) and Yoruba (evening), consequently eliminating language barriers among subliterates and illiterates, who constitute the prime target groups of traffickers. I know some will only learn by experience and will proceed to Libya regardless of advisories to the contrary, but I also know many would stay put in Nigeria if they had access to credible information. Migrants like ‘Para’ and Samuel who told me “I wouldn’t have come if I knew I would suffer this much”, those are my targets. So help me God!

As a fool and brainwashed man I just came back from church where I went to worship my King, my Lord Jesus Christ. I will continue to do this for the rest of my life

Lagos people better enjoy the last days of Sanwo Olu. The combination of his successor+ lungu boy doing another term in office is a new level.
