Building
@TemsiAfrica
has been very challenging yet fulfilling & I’m super stoked for next year.
Thank you to our partners, sponsors, mentors, scholars, community members and everyone that held our hand this year.🚀
Keep an eye out for when our next cohort applications open.👀
307 applicants, 6 scholars, and 6 partnerships later, T E M S I has had quite an eventful couple of months since its launch.
T E M S I stands tall as a talent accelerator that provides 360 support for budding tech marketers.
TF!!! My younger sister was arrested yesterday for not wearing a face mask and they threatened to have sex with her and another girl if they didn’t pay them some money or they will take them to court. 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Till now, I don’t have the words to express my anger and disgust.
It’s my BIG 25 and yes, outside my FT job in marketing/ communications, your girl is open and available for fashion/ fitness gigs, modeling gigs, and brand partnerships.🫶🏾🥳
How do I feel about this years birthday? Read here
Happy birthday Big Izz. 😌💜
I saw this tweet where someone said they wished they could bottle all the excitement they feel when they spend time with their friends so they can use that on days when they are down.
And today was one of those days. I wanna bottle all the excitement and feelings from today. 🥺
Goodbye Piggytech, Hello Nestcoin. ☺️
Leaving Piggytech was not an easy decision but I believe it was time to embark on another journey.
From a customer success intern

to the social media lead for

and it’s been such a beautiful journey.

Thank you Piggyvest 💃🏾 💙

My fellow Lagosians,
I am passionate about the people of Lagos and I remain committed to creating a better future for all residents.
As we countdown to Saturday, lets look back on some of our work in the last four years and how they confirm that indeed a

I remember
@theorebadmus_
saying she found his videos very interesting and she really enjoyed watching them.
Well darling, here’s one for you then.
Happy birthday my star babe. I pray you never lose your flame.
Ofcourse I can’t share pictures because 👀 but, this woman. 😍
Love is so easy with her and she’s very intentional about loving me. She finds a way to make me talk about and deal with things I struggle with, safely.
And, funny women >>>>
I’m happy, safe and I’m in love. 😊
Criminal beauty!! 😍
Recently, I’ve been playing around the idea of learning to sew. I love my style and how much it’s evolved.
Will be trying more prints and colored fabrics next year.
@RafvHassan
killed it as always with this fit.
My mum and I are on a video call and she asked whose house I was in and when I didn’t tell her, she said,
“Greet whoever you’re with, I know you’ll not tell me but one day, I’ll find out, man or woman.”
Things are unraveling on their own. More of this in 2023 ✨
Locs update!😍😊
It’s been 3 years & 4 months since I started my locs journey and I just keep falling in love with it.
A few tips:
✅ Yo! If nothing ever tests your patience, growing your locs will. If you’re trying to grow them naturally, breathe in & out, it takes time.
Every year, y’all complain about femme fest & hertitude, complain about IWD and women not celebrating Mens day. Y’all complain about Father’s Day not being celebrated enough.
Women create spaces for themselves.
You can’t want to be in women’s spaces so bad boy. Get over it.
This isn't even a dig at ayra but the organizers
This festival,na only female artist Dey invite
Just imagine the uproar if Dey name a festival a "Male festival" or something like that
Thursday makes it 2 years since I’ve been in tech and I started off as an intern.
Today, when I look at the trajectory thus far, I’m super proud of me.
So yes a lot can happen in 2 years.💪🏾🚀

Imagine this babe. When I post my business, my work, my personal life on my insta story, she doesn’t comment. I then post something LGBTQ and she’s sending me a DM talking about “So you’re still a lesbian” ...
“BLOCKEDTTT”
@UnkleAyo
The difference is - over time one has been seen as a test and the other is really just bonding. Most women intentionally do this to test if you’re a “wife material” or not but most fathers will probably call you aside to have a discussion in order to bond or help him if need be.
Last month I got my very first styling project. 🥹🤩
My client just moved out of Nigeria and wants to elevate their style. I’m putting together over 15 full outfits for them and also styling them for a 3-part wedding ceremony. I showed them the mood-board and they…
These are the allies and supporters y’all speak of?
The use of “allies and supporters” is very calculated, good PR because what do you mean by welcoming everyone to attend as allies and supporters of the achievements of women?
Sure feels like women were used as bait.
On a video call with my friend and this babe opens her closet to arrange some clothes and dropped the phone on the clothes and asked me to guess where I am.
I said on your clothes?
She said, ‘In the closet’.
Girllllllll! Take me outta there! Now! 😂
May we never go back there.
This is the first time I’ll be leading a marketing team and working on a GTM strategy, end to end with my team.
Like, it’s my responsibility that this team grows and contributes to the growth of the company?
Interesting times. 👏🏾👏🏾
It’s just Day 1.
Fola, rest in light, rest easy and rest in power!
There will never be enough words or even the perfect words and no matter how long I keep thinking I’ll never understand why now, but you lived in colors baby girl.
See you again.💜🕊️
I have seen demonic responses but that response? Nah!
How can you say that to someone you once loved?
How can you tell someone you claim to love that you pray they look down on everything they hold and it amounts to nothing?
