"Agberos don't last forever but they are sustained when more thugs join their ranks out of desperation. The greatest tool for upward mobility in the world remains education.

"@0Dhezy @OoTheNigerian Someone who wants to build an atomic bomb will start heading in that direction from secondary school. Someone who is very intelligent and still loves making clothes because his mum taught him to do it will also keep doing that no matter what else he does.

"Wealth is multiplied by sense and not just hard work. I learned the role of insurance as a wealth multiplier early from my family. Insured assets were valued highly because of the higher rentals and they took loans against them to build up more assets" @asemota on X 2025-06-18 11:26:16 UTC 345.1K followers, 299.6K engagements

"I cant shake this part of the book (Upstream by Dan Heath) from my head. Poor people are not poor because they lack financial know how theyre poor because they lack money.

"Anytime I see this I shake my head and mute the person. It comes from a deep seated mentality of entitlement. I remember those days in school when I would see kids with rich parents with cars I told myself that God was richer and God is my parent. I bought two cars from the hustle in school. Today I am not any different from those people" @asemota on X 2025-07-19 12:36:32 UTC 345.1K followers, 20.5K engagements

"An 18-year-old family friend and former neighbor has just finished basic training with the US Army and is now specializing.

"I think that one reason why family members never forced me into the direction of any career was that they realized that I could do anything I wanted to do. That is what is called agency. I was also extremely young as I entered university at XX and left at XX. I left home when I was XX and started living with relatives and doing business at that age. I had to learn so many things from my own mistakes and that is probably the only hint of regret that I have.

"Apple is able to make beautiful products because they solve the basic need of happiness. It is not about features or the tech those are abstracted behind functionality.

"I don't think people understand what restraint means as a doctrine. The US military is accountable to politicians and there is always political fallout without restraint.

"My guy got a second class upper in Engineering in UNIBEN (a difficult feat in our time) and he decided not to do anything with it and open a shop selling greeting cards as that was his passion. He later became a bank treasurer and now runs a fertilizer company. He got the degree but his priorities changed. I think that we dont understand creative and high agency people enough in our part of the world. Anyone who can make a first class in physics from UNIBEN is a high agency person. While I believe that we must always find ways to lift each other up we should also be respectful of the choices" @asemota on X 2025-07-18 07:55:31 UTC 345.1K followers, 433.1K engagements
"My countertop microwave oven in Accra packed up yesterday while I was trying to warm food. The reality of life without a microwave oven suddenly hit me. Yes we could live without it but that life would be terribly inconvenient. I had to quickly get a replacement from Hisense. Is a microwave oven a privilege or a necessity Those from outside who have never had one will see it as a privilege because they have adapted to life without it. For my family and me it is an absolute necessity. It is the same for many others and that is why companies like Hisense are growing rapidly.

"I just bought this book by Akio Morita the founder and late Chairman of Sony Corporation who was the eldest son of the 15th generation of very wealthy owners of a family business in Japan. You could call him a "Nepo baby" but he carved his own path away from his family transforming the image of Japanese products forever. The book is scarce and I was fortunate to have purchased the last paperback copy on Amazon. Being wealthy didn't make him any less intelligent or out of touch. It allowed him to be creative and pursue innovations that helped reshape his country and eventually the world. He" @asemota on X 2025-07-21 16:01:43 UTC 345.1K followers, 1031 engagements

"I don't understand why people don't realize that you can walk and chew gum. You can go to the MIT Lab and be a great scientist but still remain passionate about fashion. The point the young man made is that you shouldn't diminish his choice as "just making clothes." I am a tech person but I am also a teacher. I love teaching. My MD at GICEN was a Professor in UNIBEN and head of the Department of Computer Science at the same time. He wasn't "just a teacher."

"Something happened in Nigeria around 2014/2015 and it wasn't just about Buhari. People used propaganda to get their way and now many believe that it is the only way to create change.

"I had to visit a friend in the Accra suburb of Lakeside last weekend and the state of the roads I drove through shocked me to my marrow. It is obvious that I have been living in a bubble. This is the same across West Africa; Lom is also like this in some areas. Neglected. It got me thinking about African roads and the engineering involved in improving them. If we can devise cheaper ways to construct roads and develop better models to finance them without relying solely on the government and make them more durable it would create numerous jobs and drive economic growth.

"What would you give God in return if all your needs and desires were met today That question was in my head in church yesterday after prayers and I realized how ungrateful I have been when it came to answered prayers. I ended up taking them for granted until the next crisis. This is a common human flaw and something we all struggle with. I cannot be grateful enough and yet I am hardly thankful for all the little things that I take for granted.
