You know those guys who act like they invented Bitcoin? The ones who tweet things like “Tech is the future! If you’re still working a 9-5, you’re doing life wrong.” Yeah… this is the story of how one of them got exposed in broad daylight.
For months, Emeka was a LinkedIn-certified, Twitter-verified, motivational-thread-dropping tech bro.
✅ He was ALWAYS tweeting about earning in dollars.
✅ His pinned tweet? “Passive income is the key. Make money in your sleep.”
✅ His bio? “Web3. AI. Crypto. Techpreneur. CEO of Me.”
But, as we all know, Lagos will humble you. And when it did? It happened so spectacularly that even Twitter NG wasn’t ready.
The Peak of the Packaging
Before his downfall, Emeka’s tech bro delusion was on steroids.
Every morning, he would tweet something like:
🚀 “Just closed another $15k deal before breakfast. The grind never stops.”
💡 “If you’re not making money in tech, you’re playing yourself.”
🔥 “Never date a man who earns in naira.”

The worst part? People actually believed him. Babes were calling him “big fish.” Other Twitter guys were DMing him for “mentorship.” Someone even said, “Teach me how to make it in tech, boss.”
But the problem with packaging is that one day, the nylon will tear.
The Exposure: When Reality Logged In
One day, a Twitter babe, let’s call her Sade, ordered food via Jumia. Normal day, nothing serious. Until the rider arrived.
Sade stepped out to collect her food, and as she looked up, she locked eyes with her tech bro mentor.
It was Emeka.
Emeka, the same guy who tweeted “9-5 is slavery” just that morning.
Emeka, the man who told people to ‘quit their jobs and build wealth.’
But now? Emeka was standing there in a Jumia delivery vest, sweating under the Lagos sun.
Sade’s brain short-circuited for a second. Emeka, too, was shaking. But before she could even process what was happening, this man JUMPED on his bike and zoomed off.
He left the food behind.
Omo, he chose flight over fight. 🚀💨
Twitter NG Detectives Enter the Chat
Sade went on Twitter immediately and posted:
📢 “Omo, I just saw that tech bro guy… as my Jumia rider. What’s going on?”
Within minutes, Twitter NG activated like EFCC on a fraud case. Screenshots of his past tweets surfaced faster than a JAMB result check.
Someone even posted this:
📸 “Baba, but na you I see for traffic just now? 😭”
Every single tech bro flex he had ever posted got quoted.
- “Never date a man who earns in naira.”
👉🏾 “Sir, so Jumia is paying you in crypto?” - “You need to think globally! My clients are all in the US.”
👉🏾 “Oga, is it Jumia US that sent you this delivery?” - “If you’re still working a 9-5, you’re doing life wrong.”
👉🏾 “But you’re working 9-5… on a bike.”
At this point, Emeka knew he was done for.
His Attempt at Damage Control
Instead of disappearing like a responsible person, Emeka logged in and tried to save himself with a classic PR move:
📢 “Guys, tech is a journey. I took this rider job to stay humble and remind myself where I came from. Wealth is a mindset.”
Twitter NG was NOT having it. Replies were flying in like an election debate.
Someone quoted him: “Oga, just say you dey hustle in peace. Nobody go drag you. But you wan package tech bro, now see as we don catch you.”
Another person said: “If na ‘staying humble’ you wan do, why you dey run when she see you?” 😭
The final blow?
One of his followers posted: “I literally PAID for his tech mentorship course. Omo, refund me before I report you to Jumia.”
The Plot Twist: He Tried to Rebrand
After getting dragged for 48 hours straight, Emeka did what any disgraced influencer would do. He attempted a rebrand.
Next thing we saw? He changed his bio to:
📝 “Building resilience in tech. Helping people navigate the digital hustle.”
Then, he dropped a motivational thread:
- Failure is a stepping stone to success.
- Every billionaire you admire once had a side hustle.
- Never let Twitter distract you from your vision.
But Twitter was already tired of him. The final reply that finished him:
“Oga, just say you dey find new work. We don hear.” 💀
Final Lesson?
Look, there’s NO shame in hustling. None. Everyone is trying to make it. But the real disgrace? Over-packaging until Lagos humidity exposes you.
If you must fake it, at least make sure your real life is not on express delivery.
