  • The Man Who Saw Tomorrow

    When President Tinubu removed fuel subsidies and said prices would initially rise and gradually fall, many Nigerians insulted him. Twenty months later, what he said has prophetically started manifesting in reality with the Dangote Refinery-NNPCL price war. Nigerians can expect more petrol price reductions.

    As the President explained when he courageously removed fuel subsidies, competition among sellers results in celebrations for buyers.

    Under President Tinubu, we have had the first Christmas and Ramadan in Nigeria's history when food and fuel prices were simultaneously reduced, and neither commodity was scarce. Inflation has reduced from close to 40% to 24.48% in February.

    In the past, the reverse was the case. We had fuel queues, food shortages, and higher prices during these festivities

  • Mark Zuckerberg was terrified of this tiny startup:

    • 0 revenue
    • 13 employees
    • No business model

    So he bought it for $1 Billion

    This is the story of Instagram and Facebook cohabitation

    Back in 2010, Instagram started as a small idea with big potential.

    To get started, the founders secured $500K in seed funding, valuing the company at just $5 million.

    Little did they know, this humble beginning would soon lead to one of the biggest social media success stories in history.

    Most founders would've immediately focused on accelerating revenue.

    But Instagram did something different – watch the video for a clue:

    They completely ignored monetization.

    Instead, they obsessed over their North Star metric: User growth.

    The idea behind this? If they could get enough people addicted to the platform, the money would soon follow.

    Sounds sensible — the numbers didn't lie:

    In just 2 months, Instagram had built up 1,000,000 users.
    6 months later - 5,000,000 users.
    By September 2011 - 10,000,000 users.

    Growth was exponential.

    Their users were spending hours on the app every day, which caught the attention of a major player: Facebook Founder - Mark Zuckerberg

    Zuckerberg saw the threat:

    • Instagram's mobile-first approach
    • Incredible engagement metrics
    • Rapid user growth

    But he wasn't alone – Google and Twitter were also circling. And this tension created the perfect FOMO:

    By April 2012, Instagram had:

    • 30M+ active users
    • Multiple potential acquirers

    All with 0 revenue.

    They had engineered the ultimate 'fear of missing out' situation...

    Facebook couldn't risk letting Instagram go to a competitor.

    So Zuckerberg made his move: he offered $1B in cash and stock.

    Instagram's team had created so much leverage that Facebook had no choice but to pay such an expensive amount.

    100% Higher than the original worth of the platform

    So Why Did Mark Buy Instagram?
    For Facebook, the risk wasn’t just about competition—it was about survival.

    At the time, Facebook was struggling with mobile adoption, while Instagram had mastered mobile engagement.

    The younger audience was flocking to Instagram, and if another tech giant like Google or Twitter had acquired it, Facebook's dominance could have been shaken.

    Zuckerberg knew that in the business world, owning attention is more powerful than owning revenue—at least in the early stages. So he made the bold move and bought Instagram before it became an unstoppable rival.

    Instagram’s story teaches us a critical business lesson:

    - Leverage is everything.

    Many people assume that a company needs revenue to be valuable, but that’s not always true.

    The business world doesn’t just reward sales —it rewards attention, influence, and market position.

    Instagram had all three.
    They focused on growth first, money later—and it worked. Their network effect became so strong that Facebook had no choice but to acquire them at any price.

    This principle doesn’t just apply to billion-dollar startups—it applies to you too.

    If you're building something—whether it’s a business, a brand, or a skillset—focus on creating value and attention first.

    Money follows where people go.

    Instead of chasing instant revenue, ask yourself:
    How can I build something people can’t ignore?
    How can I create leverage so opportunities come to me?

    Instagram wasn’t the biggest, richest, or most powerful startup at the time.

    But they understood something most people overlook:

    In today’s world, the real currency isn’t money —it’s attention.

    If you can capture attention, you can create demand.

    And if you can create demand, you can build unstoppable leverage.

    The question is, what are you working on today that will make people stop and take notice?

  • GOV ENO TASKS A'IBOM CHILDREN ON HARD WORK, FAITH IN GOD

    ... Donates N10m to award winning Akwa Ibom child

    Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has tasked children across the State to imbibe the spirit of hard work and faith in God to enable them attain greatness in life.

    Addressing pupils of Pegasus School, Eket, who were on excursion to Government House, Uyo, he said though it was unusual to attend to other engagements on days billed for State Executive Council meetings, he decided to create time for the children to inspire them for greatness.

    He recalled the story of a 16-year-old Bill Clinton in the summer of 1963, who met with President John F. Kennedy, got inspired to pursue a life in public service, and eventually became the 42nd president of the United States in 1993.

    The Governor said attaining greatness is not accidental or automatic, but requires dints of hard work and the God factor, and advised the children to take their studies very seriously.

    He said Pegasus School has a reputation for its quality education, and commended a pupil of the school, Henry Ndudu Ekong, who won the Interswitch school competition with an accompanied N15 Million University Scholarship.

    Governor Eno who was delighted by Ndudu's academic excellence, also supported his University education with another N10 million.

    He noted that the model primary schools and the planned three model secondary schools with state -of - the - art boarding facilities accross the state are aimed at providing quality education for Akwa Ibom children to enable them excel and live their dreams.

    Responding to a question from one of the pupils on what it feels like to be a governor, he said it was simply a call to service and a responsibility; and assured them that government was committed to supporting Akwa Ibom children to excel in their different areas of choice.

    He commended the school authority for maintaining their educational standard and for choosing to expose the pupils to the workings of government.

    Earlier, the team lead, Mrs Uwem Ene, said the visit was basically to expose the pupils to the seat of government as part of their class room learning on civil society.

    He appreciated the Governor for granting the visit, as well as the Coordinator, Office of the First Lady, Lady Helen Eno Obareki who took them round the different facilities in the Government House.
