Peter Obi and team arrived at the residence of President @GEJonathan in Yenagoa, Bayelsa . To once know that I did DStv in this House brings so much Joy to my Heart. Thank You Goodluck Dore.

One thing I keep learning every day is that people don't learn and don't take pains to try to learn. Everyone wants magic. The only magic that happens is done by people who took years to learn the art.

Chimamanda is cooking. You just know that next novel is going to be fire..."I sat in the cold courtroom and watched as the last fragment of democracy was ripped off the chest of Nigeria"

I'm convinced that there is one skill that separates truly intelligent people from those that aren't: Listening. This concept of "being a recorder" by Rick Rubin explains it perfectly. In less than a minute, Rubin provides 4 simple steps that, if followed, will change how you think about your interactions with others. Step 1: "It starts with coming in blank. Not having any preconceived ideas, being open, and really listening. Not thinking about what you're going to say next or what your opinion is." Step 2: "Basically being a recorder. Just hearing what comes in. Processing that information and trying to do our best to do that without any of the beliefs we might have to impact what that is." Step 3: "I don't want to have any reaction happening when you're speaking and want to be as neutral as possible. My goal is not to form an opinion, it's to understand." Step 4: "If you say something that somehow triggers me, I wouldn't challenge you. I would ask how did you find that? How did you get to that place? I want to understand who the person is, and through questioning, we can usually get there." My thoughts: So often we enter conversations with a predetermined idea of how it will go, what the other person will say, and how we will respond. The goal, as Rubin says, should be to "understand, not form an opinion." When someone says something you disagree with, rather than being triggered, frustrated, or defensive, why not dig deeper into how they came to that opinion? While different than your own, that doesn't inherently mean they're wrong. It seems as though at some level we've lost the ability to have civil discourse. To disagree and still coexist. It doesn't make sense to me and I think––with a little effort––we can change (and just might learn something from each other along the way.) Thanks for reading. If you enjoyed this, follow me @blakeaburge for more.

Again and again. Listen first and listen well. I always tell my team members that you can learn a lot from what is not being said by listening to what is being said. What is not being said is usually more important. You won't know until you listen well.

If you can see this tweet, check the following: 1. WAEC Certificate 2. Jamb Result 3. Transcript 4. Bsc/ND/HND Certificate 5. International passport 6. NIN 7. NYSC certificate 8.

We must change it.

"We inherited a very bad situation" Nuhu Ribadu NSA He is right, Bola Tinubu was handed over the worst economy in the history of Nigeria since 1960 But can Garri deny cassava?

So this Tinubu’s lawyer is saying…. Even though he’s a drug baron , it’s been 10 years already, let’s forgive him 😂 Can’t even make this up

Wole Olanipekun SAN, the lead counsel for Tinubu had confirmed the allegation of BAT's involvement in drug crime. It's a shame on those who denied the obvious. Where are your ọmọlùábí virtues?
