@sikhulile @dezfootie @paajoe1000 @ShegunTweets I'm sure I've gone more than 10 times. That's my go-to series.

@dezfootie @paajoe1000 @ShegunTweets 🤣🤣🤣 that's the problem im still finding out new things right now and everytime my mind is blown away about the new discovery

Cerebral palsy isn't one condition, it's a whole spectrum, and the clearest way to understand it is through the children who live with each type. Let me introduce you to a few 🧵. There's a little boy I worked with whose legs would scissor and cross every time we tried to stand him, his muscles stayed so tight and stiff that even changing his diaper was a fight against his own body. This is spastic cerebral palsy, the most common type, where damage to a specific part of the brain leaves muscles permanently tight and movements stiff and jerky. Then there was a girl whose arms would suddenly fling out on their own, completely involuntary, she couldn't hold a cup steady no matter how hard she tried to concentrate, her body kept moving in ways her mind never asked it to. This is dyskinetic cerebral palsy, where the brain struggles to control movement smoothly, so the body produces slow writhing motions or sudden jerky ones that the child has no control over. I also remember a boy who could walk, technically, but his balance was so unreliable that he fell constantly, his hands shook whenever he tried to reach for something precise like a spoon or a pencil. This is ataxic cerebral palsy, the rarest type, affecting coordination and balance rather than muscle tightness, making fine motor tasks and steady walking the biggest daily battle. And then there are children who don't fit neatly into just one box, a child with the stiffness of spastic CP in his legs but the involuntary movements of dyskinetic CP in his arms. This is mixed cerebral palsy, and it's more common than people realize, because the brain injury rarely respects clean boundaries. Severity varies just as much as the type does, some of these children walk independently with a bit of extra support, some need a walker or wheelchair for mobility, some can feed and dress themselves with practice, some need full assistance their whole lives, cerebral palsy isn't a single story, it's as many stories as there are children living with it. What stays the same across every type though, is this, early and consistent therapy changes the trajectory. Whether it's loosening spastic muscles, helping a dyskinetic child gain more control, or building balance in an ataxic child, the brain can still adapt, and the child can still gain function that once seemed out of reach. Every child with cerebral palsy is fighting a different version of the same battle, and every single one of them deserves to be seen for exactly what they're dealing with, not lumped into one assumption. Which of these stories reminds you of a child you know?

@SuccesCareer @jsphabiodun @SirJarus Ondo people have money, on average I think they have the lowest poverty index of any state in Nigeria. They have a wider middle class than most states.

@jsphabiodun @SirJarus Tell me more about them please

Why Oyo surprised me? VAT is usually paid to supplier (of applicable goods & services), who remits to government. In the case of oil companies, goverment agencies and some telcos, VAT is withheld by customer and remitted to government. Oil companies deal in large projects and they pay VAT on them, so the big number for Rivers is understandable. Lagos houses HQs of banks and many other companies, where payments are usually made from, so Lagos is also understandable. Oyo is neither an oil state nor the usual HQ of big corporations. Yes, its population makes it a big consumption hub (Kano VAT number is embarrassing based on this), but the consumption should mostly be from informal sector and small to medium scale companies that are generally poor in VAT compliance. Ibadan hosts regional offices of many banks and FMCGs, potentially with big activities that generate VAT, but this is still not enough explanation for Oyo to rank this high. One oil project in Delta or Bayelsa or Akwa Ibom should generate VAT larger than 1,000 activities in Oyo. Or maybe other states are so terrible they make Oyo figure look big. A final point: the collection efficiency can also be a factor. Maybe FIRS Oyo State offices are just effective. But not convinced this significantly accounts for the size of collection.

Political realists see the world as it is: an arena of power politics moved primarily by perceived immediate self-interests, where morality is rhetorical rationale for expedient action and self-interest. In this world, laws are written for the lofty aim of “the common good” and then acted out in life on the basis of the common greed. In this world, irrationality clings to man like his shadow so that the right things are done for the wrong reasons—afterwards, we dredge up the right reasons for justification. It is a world not of angels but of angles, where men speak of moral principles but act on power principles; a world where we are always moral and our enemies always immoral. A world where “reconciliation” means that when one side gets the power and the other side gets reconciled to it, then we have reconciliation. A world of religious institutions that have, in the main, come to support and justify the status quo so that today organized religion is materially solvent and spiritually bankrupt. — Saul D. Alinsky, Rules for Radicals (1971)

Sunk cost fallacy is a true game changer. It is the trap of sticking with something because you have already spent money or time on it, even when it no longer makes sense. Take this example. Your phone has been faulty for years. You have spent over ₦100,000 repairing it, but you refuse to upgrade because of the money already spent. That money is gone. Focus on what serves you best from now on. Apply the same principle to your investments or business. Do not hold losing assets hoping to recover your entry price. Cut losses quickly and move your capital to stronger opportunities. This mindset will save you money and peace of mind.

@KargnHasret Wow, this is massive. They must be over 2000 terrorist in that attack. Kudos to the BIR forces.

#BurkinaFaso The state television broadcast footage of the coordinated attacks launched by JNIM on June 30 in Solhan, Sebba, and Gayeri, which were repelled. While the 20th BIR forces repelled the attack by numerous JNIM militants on the ground, a drone tracked the militants from the air. As the militants attempted to flee, they became targets for the drone. Can be seen from the drone footage that a large number of militants were affected.

@AbioyeEzekiel @Pressman2040 Translation: hope the army has not packed goats with passengers/humans.

@Pressman2040 Hehe I will need someone to translate what you said to English.I hope the law of diminishing return is not what is at play.The higher the number recruited the lower the quality produced.

26NA Again ❓❓❓ Se Army O ti Keran mero bayi?

@3Star_GOD @Ovox_007 Wow, may God continue to keep you safe. Amen.

@Ovox_007 Yeah, I was there when it happened.

I have fought with several strong hearted Commanders in my 3 tours of duty at the Northeast but none can be compared to Oga Alari in terms of ruggedness and willingness in taking the fight to the Terrorists den. A Commanding Officer with a heart filled of love and care for his men 💔😭. May the soul of the great LT COL TE ALARI continue to rest with our Maker 🕊️🤲🏿 #Sentinel #ThankASoldier

@Excel_007 @Armylucifer001 Moving objects are harder to aim at. Now a moving object is now aiming at another moving object. Complicates things.

@Armylucifer001 Does this implied that someone on foot stands a better chance of dropping someone in a moving vehicle in gun combat? 😳😳😳

🇳🇬 thinks it's easy to get your target while on a moving vehicle . A moving vehicle (car, truck, boat, helicopter, etc.) is rarely perfectly smooth. It bounces over bumps, sways with turns, vibrates from the engine/road, and rocks with acceleration/braking. This makes your body, arms, and gun a shaky platform. Even small movements (millimeters at the muzzle) translate to large misses at distance (e.g., 1° of angular movement = ~1.7 feet off at 100 yards). Your muscles constantly fight to stabilize, but fatigue sets in quickly and your natural breathing/heartbeat adds micro-movements.

Dear young men, Especially those of you between the ages of 27-33 and are still single. This is how you know that you may have found your wife: 1. She's highly interested in what you do legitimately for a living, actively trying to encourage you to build your career or business, and always looking out for other opportunities for you. 2. If you live alone, she takes initiatives without being told by observing your home and trying to buy things she knows you need to live a better life in preparation for marriage. 3. She will hardly ask you for money, not because she doesn't need it, but because it's easy for her to get money from other men. And she knows that taking money from other men is an "invitation to treat", and can destroy her relationship with you. And she wouldn't want to make you feel that she's with you for your money, too. 4. When you give her money to do certain things, either for you or for her, she'll try to give you an account of how she spent the money. 5. She keeps boundaries with your friends and doesn't try to compare you with them. Rather, she would look out for that friend whom she observes has your best interests at heart, and encourage you to stay close to him. 6. She will not use sex as a weapon in the relationship, neither would she use it as a bargaining chip. 7. She actively gives you updates on how her day went, and she doesn't come to your house with her phone on silent mode or airplane mode. 8. She will try to abide by how you like her to dress, and she'll listen to you when you caution her about certain behavior that you do not like. 9. She'll actively want you to know her siblings and show interest in and respect for your siblings as well. 10. She'll not hold back if you ask her to lend you money, if she has it. But you, the man, must keep to your words when paying her back. 11. She'll bend many rules for you, but you should not take undue advantage of it. 12. She'll stress you sometimes, and test you in as many ways as possible. She's doing all that to see how well you can lead her, and how well you can control your emotions or anger. 13. She'll make mistakes. But you should use it as a teaching moment for her. If you don't judge her too harshly, she'll start to listen to you more. When you make a woman trust you with her vulnerability, she'll overlook some of your excesses. 14. She'll actively seek your validation and yours alone; whatever you say is good for her, she will accept it. And she won't care what the world says or feels about her. 15. She will not force you to be religious, but she will actively observe whether you respect God, because a man without God may not be a good leader. If you have a lady that can do at least 10 out of the 15, you may have found your wife. And remember, when you choose your wife, you have chosen your destiny. End.

@mikkyluchi @Big_Bro_E @egi_nupe Some people are just born daft. How will the lie even sell?

@Big_Bro_E @egi_nupe You mean Ahmadu Bello that died in 1966?

You see that girl who said it was President Tinubu who kidnapped those children and teachers in Oyo State and those Chibok girls? She didn’t just wake up to do that video. She’s following a clear pattern of online provocation and incitement lead by people like Moris Monye. It’s a coordinated and heavily funded propaganda. They want to bait the government and its supporters so they can be the victim of the entire situation and blame the government for ethnic profiling. Their messiah is already going around saying the government is telling people not to associate with him or not invite him to occasions anymore. I hope the government and its supporters do not fall for it. Focus should continue to be on our gallant men who rescued the innocent children and teachers; they deserve all the praises and national honours we want bestow on them. That’s the only motivation they need to go after other criminals holding innocent Nigerians to ransom.

Glimpses of the frontline...the operation to free Oyo school children and their teachers

There is a whole philosophy of money and life hiding in this line. We treat the past as fixed and the future as uncertain, but memory rewrites the past constantly, sanding off the fear we actually felt and gilding the good parts. That is why every generation swears things were better when they were young. They are not remembering the past. They are remembering a highlight reel their own brain edited for comfort. It matters because people make real decisions, selling in a panic, clinging to a job, avoiding a risk, based on a past that never quite happened the way they recall. Distrust your nostalgia. It is a talented liar.

Gosh!!! I have goosebumps

500k at a bank or 150k at a government job. Before you laugh, here is why people are choosing the 150k and not looking back:

@AdeyeyeToluwas1 @fastniche

@fastniche @thorpheh 😂

This is one of the funniest shit i seen iml 😭😭

@Chuxomax @AdamantMaster @nwoko_greg62705 @SienceTalk After sending how many of his people to die for a lost cause? And subjecting people to starvation? At least Abiola wasn't a coward and Awolowo died at home and was not poisoned.

@Chuxomax @AdamantMaster @nwoko_greg62705 @SienceTalk Ran to Côte d'Ivoire dressed like a woman.

Q: Why was Colonel Yakubu Gowon chosen as Head of State over more senior Northern military officers in 1966? A: Many of the most senior Northern officers had been killed in the 1966 counter-coup. Gowon was viewed as a neutral, compromise candidate because he was a Northern minority (from the Middle Belt) and was not directly involved in plotting the counter-coup

@Oluwaseun__0 Which place is this?

Omo, 🙆🙆🙆
