Paystack has suspended its Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, Ezra Olubi, following allegations of sexual misconduct at workplace.
It was gathered that the fintech company initiated a formal internal investigation after several old tweets linked to Olubi resurfaced online on Wednesday, November 12, 2025.
Though his X account has since been deleted, the posts — shared between 2009 and 2013 — contained sexually explicit jokes about colleagues, references to physical arousal during meetings, and remarks involving minors, bestiality, and sexualised characters.
One of the tweets also showed a desire to photograph a coworker’s thighs.
Paystack confirmed it was aware of the allegations and had immediately placed Olubi on suspension pending a comprehensive review.

The company told TechCabal: “Effective immediately, Ezra has been suspended from all duties and responsibilities.
“Out of respect for the individuals involved and to protect the integrity of the process, we will not be commenting further until the investigation is complete.”
Paystack added that its review would follow a “fair, transparent, and structured” process consistent with its internal policies and commitment to maintaining a safe workplace.
As of the time of this report, Olubi has not issued any public response to the allegations or the resurfaced tweets.
His X account was deactivated on Thursday, November 13.
