Learnt how to ride a bicycle last month. I fell a few times that day but it wasn’t that serious.
Just a full grown man with dirty clothes moving through the streets like he is in primary school.
Did almost 20KM on Sunday. You can show them people this tweet.
As someone who knows how to ride a bicycle very well, I wish there was a way I could make people who don’t know how to, do away with their fear of falling. That’s basically 80% of being able to ride, at least.

Entrepreneurship can create much more value for society than it creates for the average entrepreneur.
For one talented person, staying in a good job may be the sensible choice. But if every talented person makes that same choice, far fewer new companies get built.

I believe everyone should have access to superintelligence, and I wrote a long piece about Meta's philosophy and values for building a positive future for everyone. meta.com/thefutureisforevery…

I just learned this morning that Bryan Eze qualified for the International Economics Olympiad in China to represent Nigeria, but the Ministry of Education said that there is no money to sponsor him.
They approached the Ebonyi State Government for support and the government said that they are not interested. So he missed it.
I became curious after he won the Sterling Bank National Online Maths Quiz yesterday.
This is heartbreaking.
Today, I finally reached the stage of my bike learning journey and had a wonderful thought "Now, I can start training for the Ironman Challenge".
I just checked the Ironman Challenge and started laughing. I love the audacity!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Watching France lose this game was heartbreaking. I was rooting for my boys to pull up for a fantastic dance on Sunday.
Good run boys. Thank you for entertaining us!

I'm building an AI Agent for teams and businesses.
I have some opinions on how AI Agents should work.
- Users shouldn't have to pick the model
- Users shouldn't have to pick the reasoning mode
- Users shouldn't be managing skills
Okwute!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
"If he wants to debate me now, inviting me as a presidential candidate, he should first become a presidential candidate. The World Cup is ongoing—you can't be outside the tournament inviting countries that qualified to come and play with you, is like someone who's in division one, asking a premier League team for match."

🚨 Jude Bellingham at this World Cup:
• 6 goals, 1 assist, 4 MOTM, 6 games.
• First player since Maradona to score at a brace at the Azteca.
• First player to score B2B braces in K/O stage since Maradona
• The youngest player to score B2B braces in K/O stage after Pelé.
• Scored more goals than Rooney at MAJOR INT tournaments.
• The first midfielder to score 5+ goals for England at the World Cup.
I’d be here next season for anyone that says rubbish about Jude.
In a World Cup were midfielders like Bruno Fernandes, Vitinha,Joao Neves and even Pedri the so called best midfielders in world have been disappointing/average. Jude Bellingham the overrated player has been 10x better than them all the World Cup
