"If Ijebu’s claim of ₦1.8 trillion spent on internet data from January to December is accurate, that’s either an epic exaggeration or a very, very expensive Wi-Fi plan. For context, that’s more than what some countries spend on entire infrastructure projects in a year, it makes “broke but scrolling” feel like an understatement. The statement is hilarious on the surface, but it also subtly highlights how indispensable the internet has become: from work and entertainment to social media influence, people are literally investing fortunes in connectivity.
"There’s also a lesson in perspective here. Just like First October channels attention, effort, and resources toward meaningful, life-changing action, how we spend time and money online matters. Spending billions on data may fuel engagement and exposure, but redirecting even a fraction toward productive or impactful purposes could yield returns far beyond scrolling. The joke is obvious, but the underlying reality is a reminder to be intentional with our resources, digital or otherwise."
