If you're just coming into tech, I'll advise not to go for paths like frontend, backend, or design. The market for these roles is already saturated. Consider data analytics, cyber security, cloud engineering, or even customer engineering, and then japa if you can.

Today, while walking back to my hotel in Mexico City, I ran into two Mexican girls. They start with complimenting my outfit, then they ask where I’m from. As soon as I mentioned Nigeria, one went ‘that’s where Chimamanda is from yeah?’ When you’re big, you’re big 🙌🏾

You people should just stop lying. You’re in a community filled with exceptional women, yet you’re coming to say there’s an influx of unskilled women in tech? This same tech? What exactly do you stand to gain from putting down other women and spreading this false narrative?

Whatever you do, build a community for yourself. Find a few people that care about you and would show up for you and do the same for them. Last week was a very difficult week for me, but for each day of the week, I had a friend over with food, cake, or wine. Grateful 🫶.

If I’m not going to further my education, I really do not see myself yearning to leave. It’s never been something I’ve aspired to. Although, I may have to really reconsider if Tinibu wins the upcoming elections. 😔

Y’all on Naija tech twitter amuse me swears. Every 2 business days, it’s always one argument or the other or who’s better than the other . No constructive conversation. Why can’t y’all just do the jobs you’re hired for?, deliver excellently, collect your money and go home?

At the start of this year, I started what I called the 10X developer group. The goal was for a 10 developers to come together in a group, study together and level up aggressively to land remote jobs/ gigs. Glad to see that it’s paid off. This one just got a US job 🚀

Early birthday gift to myself. J.Cole said, “there’s no such thing as a life that’s better than yours” Hu Nke Gi N’Anya = Love yours. A reminder to myself to romanticize my life as often as I can, and to fearlessly pursue things that bring me happiness.

‘Achalugo’ In truth, I don’t think there’s one English word that fully encompasses the depth or interpretation of that word. It’s a such a transcendental word. It’s literal meaning is the abode of an eagle, but it’s used to describe beauty or poise that’s beyond mere humans.

I told her I loved wooden accents, and she just went to work and created this perfect ensemble. I didn’t have to break the bank, I didn’t have to fight with Nigerian artisans about the quality of their finishings. I just said what I wanted, and went to bed.

All yee workaholics, try and rest oh. Rest 🙏🏽 Stop chasing fulfillment and filling the void that boredom creates with work. Some of y’all’s health is currently being held with cellotape. Try and fall in love and move in with your partners. That should help.

@OluyomiOjo So what if the email sender isn't American? Do you not see how not having a discourse that enlightens him of realities different to what he believes could become problematic? He also replied to a quote tweet from a black woman claiming that 'delve' is a pretentious word and 'no

and forget about everything else. Something always has to give. But once you've built the foundations, then you can have that. But you actually have to work your ass off to get to where you want to be.

It's why the only people I genuinely envy are those from rich homes. I often wonder what my investment portfolio would like if I didn't have to cater to so many bills. Ok, enough ranting.

I've had a 99% success rate with visa applications, and I've noticed is that self employed folks are more frequently denied tourist visas (especially schengen) As a self employed person, here are 3 things you can start doing to strengthen your visa applications.
