What do men want? When I was in my 20s, I was a different type of young man. Others were drinking beer and chasing girls, but I was building a business and not drinking, but still chasing girls. As I grew older and became more stable in my career, I wanted a family. However, I went through many failed relationships before finally realizing that it wasn't about them, but about me. I looked inward and changed myself to a more patient, more generous, and less impulsive person. I also found religion again, and it made all the difference. I got the best life partner I could have ever imagined. A blessing. It was given to me by the grace of God. I didn't create it. I learned a great deal from that process about what is truly important in life and how to achieve it. We believe too much that everything we do is why we get what we want and that we deserve it. The best things you have today are likely things you didn't deserve but got anyway. We should not become conceited or arrogant as it could have been much worse. Grace isn't about NOT hustling and waiting for miracles, but knowing that even while hustling, you could be a tool for blessing others while you are being blessed. I discovered that doing good to others in relationships and avoiding a transactional approach compounds blessings. I was having a conversation with my cousin in his mid-30s this morning about career and settling down to build a family and realized that it wasn't going to be about anything he did right but about what God determined was right. A good friend who had ticked all the right boxes in her life, got a first class degree and a PhD before 24, called me three days to her wedding and wanted me to tell her something to make her know if she was right about going forward. I sent her Psalm 127 v 1. “Unless the LORD builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain” This post wasn't meant to be all religious and “preachy” but it is International Men’s Day and I believe that what makes you a man is Grace and not bravado or hype. Real men pray and do good things. They are also blessed abundantly when they are blessings to others. Help a fellow human today.

Hey everyone 👋🏽 I wanted to take a moment to explain why it’s been taking longer than usual for us to respond to your messages and complaints. The truth is, @investbamboo wouldn’t be Bamboo without you. You’ve trusted us with your investments, your feedback, and your patience — and for that, we’re deeply grateful. 🙏🏽 Over the last year, we’ve grown way faster than we imagined — and with that growth has come real pressure on our systems and our team. 💥 We’ve been adding more people to our support team, but we keep growing faster than we can onboard new people. Within just 6 weeks this past quarter, our user base jumped by 74% — more than we did throughout all of last year. 🚀 It’s very difficult to responsibly grow a team that quickly. Despite our best efforts, response times have stayed flat instead of coming down — and that’s not good enough. So we’re doing something different to fix it — and we want you to be part of it. 💪🏽 We’re launching the single largest hiring spree in Bamboo’s 6-year history! And we’d love members of our Bamboo community to be a part of it. Apply here → bamboo.teamtailor.com/jobs/6… Alongside expanding our support team, we’re also improving our systems and processes to make the Bamboo app more intuitive and seamless for you to use. ⚙️📱 I’m really sorry again for the delayed response times — but I promise, we’re cleaning it up. You’ll start seeing a lot of progress on this front soon. 💚 To everyone who’s supported us on this journey — thank you. @investbamboo is what it is because of you. 🌍💛

Jamiu defeats his Russian opponent in a thrilling Endgame to win the Chess tournament at the 2025 United Nations games. We did it 🏆🇳🇬🇺🇳 From Ikorodu Lagos, to the United Nations HQ in New York, our dreams are truly written in the stars.
Final round 🇳🇬🇺🇳 If Jamiu wins this game, he gets the gold medal. My heart can’t take it. Let me just go and sit somewhere 😅

I'm looking for a new Growth lead for @Risevest. We've worked with great people in this role but this time we are looking for someone who has three things going for them: 1. Performance marketing is your obsession. Give us the lowest CAC and the highest LTV possible. 2. Just as obsessed about the entire customer journey from consideration, decision, retention, growth, satisfaction etc. 3. We are moving into new geographies. So it really helps if you can drive growth across multiple countries and multiple channels.

Something similar has been on my to-build list for years but something was always a blocker. I can think of a good use-case and I think** with current hardware tech, this should be feasible.

I have been trying to figure this out for a while. Now, I have less than a month left to provide proof of funding. Happy to hear all suggestions ⭐ As explained in screenshot above, navigating scholarships has been tricky. A retweet/repost goes a long way. Thank you!
