Submitted a talk on OIDC to #DevfestLagos by @gdglagos, for this post I asked a fellow maintainer if I could share a screenshot from our discussion. His response? "Cool, but I'd rather not attract supply chain attackers" 😅 Honestly, that's the best justification for the talk.

What does it really mean to design with intelligence? At #DevFestLagos 2025, @ChukwuAdaeze unpacked how designers can build smarter, more intentional experiences in an AI-driven world. Catch the full session on our YouTube channel. youtu.be/zbpRebc3NBo?si=eE_z…

At #DevFestLagos 2025, we dived into the future of open money. “Building Africa’s Developer Bitcoin Ecosystem” by Tobechi Chukwuleta of @btrustteam is a must-watch for anyone serious about shaping Africa’s Bitcoin story. Catch the session and be part of what’s next. 🚀 youtu.be/Y9xCWNzK4QE?si=IshK…

In case you missed @kofookesola's session at #DevFestLagos, we’ve got you covered. His talk on “Designing Predictable Complex Systems with AI” was packed with real insights on building AI systems you can actually trust and scale. It’s now live on our YouTube channel. youtu.be/ANgR_HV-ld8?si=5M4w…

Definitely going for the next DevfestLagos to connect with like minds.

I have always only look up to God and for all the times I’ve moved closer to Him, the signs are just so obvious. ~ pics from #DevfestLagos

I remember we were having a group conversation about attending physical tech events. One guy said he doesn’t see anything special in attending tech events that it’s just like listening to a podcast in person. I tried to make him see it differently but he just wouldn’t so I let him be. The point is, that’s what he believes and he’s not ready to change that belief. If he attends a tech event, he’ll go with that mindset and come back with nothing! Personally for me, getting out of my comfort zone to attend my first event which was DevFest Lagos 2023 changed a lot for me - from seeing people building amazing stuff, connecting, learning and just trying to have fun in their own way. Even though I ended up not networking or getting the best out of it, it was an eye opener for me. Guess who came back the following year for DevFestLagos 2024 as a Frontend Developer on the Digital Working Group? If I didn’t go in 2023 I wouldn’t have known anything about it. You see what I’m saying now, your mindset really matters. I went on to attend other events and even volunteer before DevFest Lagos 2024 and the experience was eye opening. If your mindset is limiting you from getting the change you want for yourself or achieving that big goal, you need to CHANGE our MINDSET! Moving into 2026 with mad audacity requires a certain level of mindset!💪🏾

DevFest Lagos was honestly one for the books, and we’re still soaking in all the moments. But we’re not done. Hear from our partners at @Bitnob_official, @btrustteam and @alat_ng as they share what DevFest Lagos 2025 meant to them, the products they’re building, and why they joined us this year. And with #DevFestLagos 2026 already on the horizon, let’s build something even bigger together. Let’s partner. 💙✨

Hi Samson Goddy, Nice to meet you, I met you at DevFestLagos on Saturday, I am also looking for DevRel roles This is my portfolio 👇 happiness-omale-portfoli-n17…

My view at the banquet hall. Excellent keynotes and speaker led session from Olumide Balogun (Director West Africa Google) on Keynote, Chuka Ofili (GDE cloud) on Outsource Knowledge, Protect reasoning, and Odun of Piggyvest on Building for Billions #devfestlagos #devfest2025

Meetings like these are transformational. Sometimes, the catalyst you need is the mention of a word or just the right dose of motivation to rouse you up. Joining on the #DevFestLagos stage with amazing panelists, we were glad to share the prospects of opensource from the beginner lens or first-time contributors. Amongst many other points, the spotlight was also on paid opensource opportunities like Google Summer of Code (GSoC), Outreachy and the likes. It was a great time and we had a wonderful audience. PS: I attached an article in the comments that has more info about GSoC and Outreachy, if you are interested. #DevfestLagos25

Just got back from #DevFestLagos and wow… Lagos tech energy is different! The sessions, the people, the creativity—chef’s kiss. And can we talk about the National Theatre? That place is pure art. 🇳🇬✨ Feels like standing inside the heartbeat of Lagos. Still buzzing! #GDGLagos
