<p>Eighty insights ago, it started with a simple idea:</p><p>My TwoCents on "The Work Apartment Wahala: Wetin Happen to Washing Plates?"</p><p><br/></p><p>Just two small coins of thought in a noisy work environment.</p><p><br/></p><p>But somewhere between the "2026" echo of red bottoms on tiled corridors and the whisper of late-night phone calls that felt louder than presence… those two cents became currency.</p><p><br/></p><p>This Year.</p><p>I have written about love that couldn’t be had.</p><p>About men who watched destiny walk past them in grocery store aisles.</p><p>About women who dared to dream out loud in diary pages.</p><p><br/></p><p>Last Year..</p><p>I have laughed with Abiodun in his wahala.</p><p>Interviewed HipHop Heads that are carrying on the tradition.</p><p>Turned gossip into wisdom.</p><p>Turned humour into caution.</p><p>Turned “TwoCents Platforms into a multi-fictional franchise"</p><p><br/></p><p>TwoCents (School of Thought)</p><p>Primary</p><p>Secondary</p><p>Tertiary</p><p>International</p><p>Boarding</p><p>.. even Tobi ran a Restaurant</p><p><br/></p><p>I even helped my brother John start a Church.</p><p>Don't get it Twisted, today ain't Sunday.</p><p>..... </p><p><br/></p><p>I have stood in classrooms where stories were born.</p><p>Yeah we popped balloons without Noms Miraj.</p><p>Sat with couples before social media made love aesthetic.</p><p>Bridged Gen Y hearts and Gen Z hesitations.</p><p><br/></p><p>Eighty times, I have squeezed life into insight.</p><p>Eighty times, I have turned everyday chaos into clarity.</p><p>Eighty times, I have taken culture — our culture — and polished it until it reflected us back to ourselves.</p><p>Eighty times, I have sang Nursery Rhymes in my old age... Maybe not Eighty Times.</p><p><br/></p><p>TwoCents was never about perfection.</p><p>It was about perspective.</p><p><br/></p><p>About reminding Lagos that even in traffic, there is truth.</p><p>That in heartbreak, there is humour.</p><p>That in gossip, there is a lesson.</p><p>That in fear, there is a story waiting to be told.</p><p><br/></p><p>If Insight 1 was curiosity,</p><p>Insight 20 was confidence.</p><p>Insight 40 was craft.</p><p>Insight 60 was voice.</p><p>Insight 80 was love.</p><p><br/></p><p>And now — Insight 81 is gratitude.</p><p><br/></p><p>Gratitude for every reader who paused.</p><p>For every comment that sparked debate in WhatsApp groups.</p><p>For every silent reader who screenshot and saved.</p><p>For every character — fictional or familiar — who trusted me with their chaos.</p><p><br/></p><p>Eighty insights ago, it was just two cents.</p><p><br/></p><p>Today, it is proof.</p><p><br/></p><p>Proof that small thoughts, consistently shared, become movements.</p><p>Proof that storytelling is leadership.</p><p>Proof that culture documented becomes culture preserved.</p><p><br/></p><p>This is not just the 81st insight.</p><p>This is a mirror.</p><p>A milestone.</p><p>A marker that says:</p><p><br/></p><p>We are building something that lasts.</p><p><br/></p><p>And if TwoCents could travel this far…</p><p><br/></p><p>Imagine the wealth ahead.</p><p><br/></p>
