Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Ezra God Olubi has been suspended after saying he was touching his cat nipples in old beastiality tweets.
The allegation has also brought renewed attention to dozens of decade-old tweets, including sexually explicit posts about colleagues and minors. TechCabal contacted Olubi for comments via email; he had not responded by the time of filing this report.
“Paystack is aware of the allegations involving our Co-founder, Ezra Olubi,” the company told TechCabal in a statement. “As of Thursday evening,
November 13, 2025, Ezra has been suspended from all duties and responsibilities pending a formal investigation.”
The tweets, posted years before he co-founded Paystack, resurfaced on Thursday and quickly spread across X. Their renewed circulation has intensified public scrutiny as the company investigates the allegation, fuelling broader discussion about workplace boundaries and expectations of behaviour from senior leaders in the ecosystem. Olubi has not publicly addressed the tweets or allegations of sexual misconduct. He also deactivated his X account on Thursday, November 13, 2025.
Olubi’s tweets resurface in an ecosystem that has had to confront multiple incidents of workplace misconduct involving tech leaders in the past few years. More recently, in October, Oscar Limoke, the CEO of Kenyan IT firm Pawa IT Solutions, was fined by the country’s Employment and Labour Relations Court over sexual harassment and assault allegations that forced a staff member to resign.
