Shared Lagos-Abuja flight with him last month. When we got to Abuja, I asked whether he minded I showed him my company's latest site in the city. He accepted. Impromptu. Extra itinerary. Straight from the airport. We went to the site and my engineers and site guys took us around. One hour of his morning given to accommodate a Twitter mutual's unplanned request. Moral support.

That Merino goal. A striker should always anticipate goalkeeper error. That's one thing I always have in my mind when playing football. That instinct got me this goal vs Lekki United (now Ibadan United) to earn a draw for my team (Jarus FC) when we played them in 2022. My only goal vs professionals. They were a NLO side.

During the NNPC recruitment in January, my team at JarusHub (careers) and I shuttled between Lagos, Abuja, Ilorin and PH to coach candidates for NNPC interview, teaching them about oil & gas industry, what to say in interviews etc. At least 100 of them passed and got in.

Trivela is “nasa”. Neither Quaresma nor Yamal owns it It has been been popular African street footballers for more than 50 years, before Quaresma or Yamal was born Friday Elahor, that played in Nigerian clubs for most of his career, did this clean trivela in AFCON 33 years ago.

This is an hotel apartment in Abidjan. Note the louvre window, aluminium door, asbestos ceiling, curtain and furniture. By Nigerian standard, how much do you think the rate per night will be in Lagos? The area in Abidjan is Cocody, which is equivalent of Lekki. Factor that in too. Will disclose rate after seeing 10 guesses.

I said on a Twitter Space recently that the tax authorities do not have the capacity to go after everybody. The tax laws put N25m as quarterly threshold for banks to share reports with them. And N100m for corporate accounts. Now, let’s say each deposit money bank has 5,000 customers whose total inflows in a quarter is N25m and each MFB/neobank has 1,000. There are 23 banks in Nigeria and 1,000 MFBs. (5,000*23)+(1,000*1,000)= 1.1m people per quarter whose bank accounts will feature. Now, imagine the administrative procedure of comparing the tax records of 1.1m people every three months with their bank records and writing to each of them to explain the disparity. And repeat same every three months. For administrative convenience, the only reasonable thing to do is to have an administrative threshold higher than the statutory threshold. In other words, if banks, as the law requires, submit records of 1.1m accounts with N25m+ inflows every quarter, the tax authority may decide to ask questions only from people with N100m+ plus or just do top 50,000 people from the 1.1m people they have on their table. At the end of the day, it still goes back to the central message of this tax reform - the rich are the target. I don’t know why everyone is panicking. No tax authority in the world has the capacity to go after everyone. Imagine spending N1m to get N50,000 from you. Your Opay account is not the target, even if it does transactions of N25m in a quarter. The cost of going after you is more than the amount they will collect from you. The people that will get them tens or hundreds of millions in tax, if found wanting, are the target.
