Pray against the spirit of sudden problems that arise whenever you receive money.

Politicians should copy the style of @akinalabi so that you will not lose direct primaries again. 2: don’t stay in Abuja for months ooooo. 3: go home to brief your constituents. 4: let your legislative office be functioning. 5: Complements your LGa chairman, Gov and police commissioner.

Opinions I’ve held about this election that have caused hell to break loose: - Neither of the big 3s are particularly good choices - Tinubu is not as incoherent as the media portrayed him to be. He’s actually intelligent and answered the Rwanda interview questions well. - Peter Obi derails everytime he is asked tough questions in interviews. He doesn’t sound as intelligent or prepared as his supporters project him to be. - The Tinubu administration has made some positive economic reforms beneficial to the country long term. The hardship we face now is partly the brunt of reforms and partly bad governance. - This same administration has however failed badly on security, among other sectors. People die everyday, kidnapping is on the rise. The primary purpose of government is security. If you fail at that, then regardless of your macro achievements, you are a failed government. - Obidients are a very toxic group of narcissists and vile people. They do more harm than good to the movement. Not everyone will support your candidate. Get down from your high horse. - All candidates must be thoroughly assessed and criticized; both the incumbent and those vying for office. Judge the incumbent by his manifesto vs performance. Ask challengers what exactly they plan to do differently. - Critique of a candidate is not support for another. - We are largely in trouble as a country. The fate of the 2027 election already is almost sealed. Which one do you disagree with?

If you are relocating to Canada 🇨🇦 from Nigeria 🇳🇬 and don’t know which city to pick, let me save you the research. 🇨🇦 Toronto = 🇳🇬 Lagos. Same hustle. Same traffic on Don Valley Parkway. You didn’t relocate, you just changed currency. 🇨🇦 Ottawa = 🇳🇬 Abuja. Government jobs. Quiet life. People leave work at 5pm. Still can’t believe that’s legal. 🇨🇦 Vancouver = 🇳🇬 Port Harcourt. Beautiful. By the water. Everything is expensive and nobody is sorry about it. 🇨🇦 Calgary = 🇳🇬 Warri. Oil and gas. Tough people. No time for packaging. What you see is what you get. 🇨🇦 Brampton = 🇳🇬 Festac/Surulere. Every Nigerian knows someone there. The jollof, the churches, the hair salons. You will think you never left. 🇨🇦 Winnipeg = 🇳🇬 Kaduna. Overlooked. Affordable. Getting better quietly. Nobody talks about it enough. 🇨🇦 Montreal = 🇳🇬 Ibadan. Old soul. Rich culture. Speaks a different language and is very proud of that. You will adapt or struggle. 🇨🇦 Edmonton = 🇳🇬 Enugu. Solid. Underestimated. People work hard and say nothing about it. Which one did I get right and which one did I miss? 👇

When we view Marriage through the lens and design of Christ, again our first reaction won’t be who wins or who is loosing.

I feel when you start using ChatGPT to help you write essays, texts etc, over time you lose your creative self in composing from your brain. Did I get that right?

An uncomfortable truth: “Any crime that is punishable by a fine is basically legal for those who can afford it.”

When I was at uni my lecturer said "don't bother praying before the exams because I've prayed to the same God to intercept your prayers if you haven't studied hard" 😭😭

And we still spoke for like two hours after.

Reading an entire paper for one useful reference

As it should be.

The Ministry of Finance remains, without question, one of the most influential institutions within Nigeria’s economic framework, exerting a level of control that extends deeply into the real economy. This degree of centralisation, while not ideal in theory, has become a practical necessity. In a system where institutional discipline is still evolving, granting ministries full autonomy would create significant exposure to abuse of office, policy inconsistency, and fiscal indiscipline, all of which ultimately undermine economic stability. In that sense, the concentration of authority within the Ministry of Finance has served as a stabilising safeguard, ensuring coordination, enforcing fiscal boundaries, and maintaining a degree of coherence across government activity. It is not a perfect arrangement, but it reflects a pragmatic response to prevailing institutional realities. However, this structure also raises the stakes considerably. When so much influence is vested in a single office, the performance of the broader economy becomes closely tied to the competence, discipline, and vision of the individual who occupies that position. The margin for error is therefore extremely narrow. It is in this context that one must reflect on the calibre of leadership the Ministry has seen over time. Since the tenure of Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, it is difficult to argue that we have consistently had leadership with the depth, authority, and execution capability required to fully meet the demands of that office. While there have been periods that were viewed positively by observers, including during the tenure of Kemi Adeosun, the gap has often been evident not just in policy conception, but more importantly in implementation, coordination, and the delivery of measurable economic outcomes. As a new Finance Minister assumes office, there is cautious optimism. His professional background and prior contributions to fiscal policy discussions have been widely acknowledged, and his early engagement in public service has demonstrated clarity of thought and a firm grasp of the issues. The expectation now is that this translates into decisive leadership and disciplined execution. Nigeria does not lack ideas or policy frameworks. What has often been missing is consistency, coordination, and the resolve to deliver results at scale. This moment presents an opportunity to reset that trajectory and move the economy forward in a meaningful and sustained way.

FUNAAB student crochets a Real Madrid kit for FYB jersey day.

I once overheard someone saying “if you ever see me having fun, don’t think I have money, I’m just living way above my means” and real 😭😭

Nothing dies in my hands this week. Everything I touch finds life. My helpers will locate me, and they will recognize me on sight. I will live long, walk in wisdom, and prosper.

One simple life hack is to treat Saturday as just another work day. If you wake up 5am on Monday to Friday, do the same on Saturday. If you put in 12 hrs on a weekday, give Saturday a similar treatment. The nature of the work you do can be different but don't let up on the intensity. For instance, instead of waking up at 5am to quickly catch the bus or beat the traffic, you wake up to study, to become good at your craft, to solve a difficult problem, whatever. I don't know who sold the world on two days of rest for every week. But that's a recipe for being behind in life. God didn't rest for two days. He worked six days and rested on the seventh day. Why should you do any less?
