A significant controversy has erupted online following the resurfacing of a series of deeply disturbing and inappropriate old tweets attributed to Ezra Olubi, co-founder of the prominent tech company Paystack. These posts, which allegedly date back more than a decade, have sparked widespread outrage and condemnation across various social media platforms, leading to intense public debate regarding accountability and public conduct for prominent figures.

The content of the unearthed tweets is particularly alarming. Among the circulating screenshots are posts containing explicit sexualized comments about minors, which many online users have unequivocally described as pedophilic and profoundly inappropriate. Further adding to the public's shock, other tweets reveal Olubi making startling claims about his health, specifically stating he had been diagnosed with HIV and Hepatitis B after a general hospital checkup. Perhaps the most graphic and unsettling revelations include comments and jokes implying sexual activity with his cat, leading to widespread accusations of bestiality. Additionally, some posts show him making inappropriate sexual remarks concerning coworkers and young girls, further amplifying the public's condemnation.

The timing of these revelations coincides with news of Olubi's recent breakup from one of the bisexual women within his "polycule." This relationship, described as a consensual three-way dynamic, involved Olubi and two women who were also dating each other. Online speculation suggests that the dissolution of this relationship may have drawn renewed attention to his past online behavior, serving as a catalyst for the old tweets to come to light.

The public reaction has been swift and severe. Many social media users have expressed profound shock and anger over the nature of the comments, with numerous calls for immediate accountability from the tech entrepreneur. A bisexual woman who was part of Olubi's polycule, having previously dated him and another woman simultaneously, publicly challenged his close friends. She shared screenshots of the controversial posts and questioned the silence of those closest to him, including several public feminist voices she had tagged, implying that they should speak up given the gravity of the allegations rather than ignore the situation. Adding to the furor, a photo of Ezra Olubi holding his black cat also resurfaced and quickly went viral, with users explicitly linking it to the disturbing comments about bestiality found in his old tweets.

The situation has ignited a widespread debate among Nigerians, with many questioning how such alarming tweets from a prominent figure in the country’s tech ecosystem could have gone unnoticed for so many years. The controversy underscores the lasting impact of digital footprints and the increasing demand for public figures to be held accountable for past and present actions.
