Getting a big win on April 1st is so funny, because people will find it hard to believe.
For example now, I just got this new whip, and customised it to my favourite colour. I wish I waited till April 10th before posting but I can't wait to post this 😭
Nigerians congratulate me in the comment section, and tap into my grace.
Thank you Graphic Design 🥹

Noah has been creating these great visual designs with smartphone and I’m always in awe.
He consistently participates in design briefs and pushes himself.
He was finally able to gather some money to get a pc but got robbed 😫. I’m soliciting on behalf of Noah to see how the design community can help him. 🤲
No amount is little. Whatever we are able to contribute will go a long way in supporting him.

From my POV:
It's a long read, but if you enjoy stories you'd enjoy it 😄
I've always been passionate about tech since way bacckkk, I've always fantasised about having magic and all, when I realised I was not getting any magic anytime soon.. I decided tech was the closest thing to it.
I was already searching how to build websites since I was 12 or so.
I started learning HTML and CSS with a 1gb RAM PC my Dad gave me, the PC can't even handle VS code so I was coding with notepad, and bracket
I remember one of my classmates laughing at me when I was practising with HTML and CSS on notepad in SS3. I loved tech soooo much
At a point I became obsessed with Hacking, I wanted to be one of the greatest hackers of all times. I started researching the greatest hackers, I came across Kelvin Mitnick, I learnt how to phish then using Termux, coupled with social engineering I hacked some of my classmates Facebook then.
After finishing from secondary school December 2020, I downloaded a book then 400 pages titled "Hacking for Dummies", I didn't have enough support equipment and resources, my phone couldn't even load YouTube.
So I started paying for small small tech courses where we can use Renderforest to make 3d animated videos.
I remember paying for a course on video editing with ₦750 airtime.
Well, I found design, and I could do it with my smartphone, and the rest was history.
If you ask me whether or not if still go back to Cyber security, yes, but over time priorities have drifted from just passion to actually making money.
But I'm planning to do it for my masters
February 2021,
I was 16, and right from when Covid hit the year before, myself and @daveetech have been trying different ways to make money online
We even recorded a funny video where we were begging for money a day to my 16th birthday😹, thank God we didn’t post it that year 😭😹… because we were thinking of posting it on our Facebook page that year
My guy was the techy guy, and somehow he stumbled on digital skills in early 2021, and he started learning skills like graphic design, copywriting, video editing, intro video generation, and a bunch of things
And me on the other hand? I was attacking my guy, I told him that he was wasting his time, to his face… it just didn’t look like whatever he was doing could give us the money we were looking for
Anyways, mid-February 2021, we were in their sitting room with his mum, when his mum called him aside…
Apparently, his mum posted one of the intro videos he made from a website right in my presence, on her WhatsApp status
One of her Friend saw the video, and asked if David can make something similar for her, she proposed something around N2500, but David & his mum insisted on N5000
I was sitted, watching what was ongoing, and that was where it clicked for me
I saw as my best friend was about to earn N5000 from an intro video he made in less than 10mins
Few days later, I came across a smartphone design facebook ads, price was 1k, and I had 1k on me. I decided to risk it and gave it a shot
5years now, my life had completely changed. Best decision I made.

On May 27, 2022, my life changed; it was the day I purposefully started building my career.
On Feb 16th, 2026, students lives changed because I told them they didn't need to wait for graduation to build theirs.
I showed them my story: 5th-year pharmacy student, successful content marketer with 60k+ followers across socials.
I made them see that the only way to success is not school → job → marriage.
I visited a secondary school in Benin City but I didn't do it alone.
The amazing team at The Shrewd Child was right there with me.
And truly, you were there too. Through every reshare, word of encouragement, and donation, you carried this initiative.
The Lord put it in my heart to light a fire in these children, and He has been faithful to provide.
I'm celebrating this win again because damn, I cannot believe we did this.
It's so easy to wait until we're "big" to give back, but what if you started exactly where you are today? That's what I've done.

Baby 2 just arrived, nobody won my ₦10k, let me go and save it 😂.
@itelNigeria powertank, I've heard a lot of reviews about it, I also got a solar panel with it.
The panel is really bigggg, I didn't expect it to be that big.
Can't wait to install and start using.

Yesterday, we had a sport hangout, organised by my department.
Prior to that day, I had already challenged one of my guys that I will beat him hands down if we face on Table tennis.
I told him I will school him and show him who the real boss is.
Guess who won?
Check comments for the result of the match.
Daveetech retweeted
Will you be my Val? 🥹
Requirements:
→ Must love impact.
→ Must care about kids’ futures.
Why?
Because The Shrewd Child is my mission to empower secondary school students.
Our outreach will give scholarships, writing materials and show them the traditional path isn't the only way to success.
It's happening on Monday!
While the people with babes are getting flowers that’ll wither by Tuesday, we’ll be planting seeds of success that last a lifetime.
(I promise I'm not a hater 😂)
You can join us by spreading the word and I'll ensure those young minds go home transformed.
Happy Valentine’s Day, my fellow singles!❤️
...and the non-singles too 😂
