@Marviecodes @cbngov_akin1 Congratulations 🥂

From working in a cassava factory as a student trying to survive, to graduating with a CGPA of 4.43/5.0 (Second Class Upper Division) in Computer Science. I remember the night before my first WAEC paper in 2020; I still hadn't balanced my fees...see more👇

Use STAR-R like this and I guarantee you, the interviewers will sense you are on a whole new, higher, level than every other candidate. Not necessarily because you were smarter than them. But because you structured your thinking while they were rambling. That's how you get in. Congrats in advance.

99% of People don't know this!!!

@YhungProf0 @GreaterLagosNG Congratulations 🥂 wishing you all the best.

Amid the flood of felicitations following my convocation as Overall Best Graduating Student of LAUTECH, I find it necessary to address the stir around my NELFUND appreciation post. I accept the praise, life changing offers and the backlash, in good faith. Still, it is only fair to set the record straight. I hail from a village in Osun State, raised in a modest family of five. I attended public primary and secondary schools, not by choice, but because even the most inexpensive private schools were beyond our means. Even then, survival itself; food and clothing was a daily struggle. I walked miles to school each morning, while my parents laboured as jacks-of-all-trades to make ends meet. For nine defining years before I entered university, we lived within sight of basic amenities yet beyond our reach, no electricity, no television; just lanterns and candles. Against these odds, I earned a scholarship and now this distinction. In my third year, a coursemate’s father, someone I had once tutored academically, gifted me my first smartphone which I am still using till now. On several occasions, lecturers, moved by quiet compassion, provided me with clothing. There are many other instances, too numerous to recount. So, I say this plainly, not all of us are born with a silver spoon. Some of us climbed the ladder by holding on to every rung of legitimate support we could find. As an engineering student aspiring to make academic history, should I resort myself to blaming my family’s financial situation for my inability to afford fees and essentials like a reliable smartphone or laptop needed for skills and certifications? For me personally, NELFUND was not incidental; it was instrumental and to acknowledge what helped one’s journey is neither propaganda nor misplaced allegiance. It is simply an act of appreciation. Thank you @NELFUND and everyone that contributed to this success! Greatness awaits all of Us.

I interviewed people for Shell for years. Here’s how to get in. 🧵 These tips will help you for other O&G companies too because they basically copy each other. Same concepts. Different buzz words.

@taadelodun Barakallahu fii 🤲

When you are the first child of an African family, you are a leader by default. When my dad moved from Okeho to Mushin, all his siblings lived with us at one point or the other. We go all manage inside the face me I face you. Iya Wale understood the assignment, she never complained. When I moved from Mushin to London, all my also siblings stayed with for some time to find their feet. This one is getting married soon, I am a bit emotional. The journey is tough, but with love as the foundation, we will win in the end.🙏

@fattylincorn_01 May Allah grant our gallant soldier victory over the enemy.

I promised you, Mama. I will come back alive. 🫡😭😭 But if my country keeps bleeding, I may not return the same. If my smile fades, remember it was traded for peace. If my voice trembles, it has shouted through the storm. Pray for me not just to live, but to come back with my soul still whole. One of the Nigeria 🇳🇬 Army writes. 💚🤍💚

🤍 The Origin of the Iḥrām Cloth The Iḥrām cloth, the simple white garments worn by male pilgrims during Ḥajj and ʿUmrah, does not originate as a newly introduced Islamic uniform but is rooted in the ancient Abrahamic tradition of pilgrimage. When Abraham (Ibrāhīm, ʿalayhi as-salām) was commanded by Allāh to proclaim the pilgrimage, the rites associated with Ḥajj, including the state of consecration (iḥrām), were established as acts of devotion marked by humility and submission. Before Islam, the Arabs practised pilgrimage to the Kaʿbah in Mecca, but over time, various distortions crept into the rites. Some tribes imposed social distinctions in dress, and in certain cases, people even performed ṭawāf without proper clothing under misguided customs. The coming of the Prophet Muḥammad (ṣallāLlāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam) restored the original Abrahamic model, purifying the rites and standardising the dress of iḥrām as a symbol of dignity, modesty, and equality. The Prophet Muḥammad (ṣallāLlāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam) instructed male pilgrims to wear two simple, unstitched white garments, one wrapped around the waist (izār) and the other draped over the upper body (ridāʾ). This was not meant to be a fashion or cultural attire, but a deliberate spiritual uniform that removes visible distinctions of wealth, status, and nationality. In iḥrām, all pilgrims stand equal before Allāh, just as they will on the Day of Judgement. For women, there is no specific uniform like that of men; rather, they enter the state of iḥrām by wearing modest clothing that fulfils the requirements of Islamic dress, without adornment or display. This further reinforces that iḥrām is not merely about clothing, but about entering a sacred state of devotion governed by specific rules and intentions. Ultimately, the origin of the iḥrām cloth is tied to the broader purpose of Ḥajj itself: to cultivate humility, unity, and total submission to Allāh. The simplicity of the garment reflects the stripping away of worldly identity, reminding every pilgrim that before Allāh, all are equal, and only taqwā distinguishes one person from another. May Allāh grant us the opportunity to enter iḥrām with sincerity and accept our acts of worship. Āmīn.

As we prepare for the Monthly Environmental Sanitation Exercise scheduled to hold every last Saturday of the month from 6:30 am to 8:30 am, beginning Saturday, April 25th, 2026, it is important that all residents understand their specific responsibilities. A cleaner Lagos is a collective duty, and every stakeholder has a role to play. #LagosSanitationExercise

Dear Local Government Chairmen and Councilors across Nigeria…….when will community building stop being an afterthought? I saw a park in my community here in the Uk 🇬🇧 , and I don’t think you need much to recreate something similar. The whole play ground is less than two plots of land, safe playgrounds, sports areas all from council tax. Why is ‘no community’ normal here? Our kids deserve more than just school. As @sam_adeyemi said, to change Nigeria, we need those who’ve seen better. I do t want to believe that you all think that community building is all about sharing rice …

@MasterBolaji They didn’t have their way as usual

What kind of minister was Wale Edun that his removal sparked such a strong emotional reaction from colleagues and staff? A condolence register for a dismissed minister? That’s quite something.

@ejykmykel1 @skarzdesigns We just need to pay more attention to our car documents. My car colour is white but wine was selected from the drop down in the Proof of ownership I guess. Police knows this typographical error do occurred and will stop you. I have to request for correction and reprint.

This one don chop wetin get bone! E don hook am for throat!🙄 Dismisal loading...

@ArmyAngel001 Rest in peace.

THE HEROES GOES HOME. WITH A HEAVY HEART WE ANNOUNCE THE DEATH OF. (LATE MAJOR GM DUSAI) The Senior Officer is an indigene of Taraba State. A member of NMS98 and Obtained a Bsc in Geography from Nigerian Defense Academy as a regimented member of 58 Regular Combatant Course… He is highly trained Artillery Officer well known for his Exceptional Precision for targeting and Fire control, with a Strong reputation for discipline and Operational effectiveness in Artillery engagements… Major Dusai died in maiduguri while defending his country and he deserved to be celebrated for paying the ultimate price for me and you!!!!!! May he found peace beyond. Amen .

I take profound joy in finally showcasing the canned variants of OJAJA Cola and OJAJA Orange. This development represents a compelling testament to our collective ability to conceive, develop, and deliver world class products wholly within our own nation.

@YusufAsunmogejo Merci beaucoup

Apparently, I saw this video online and I decided to share. What this worker is applying is called bitumen, or what many of us know as bituminous coating. Most people think a wall is a solid, impenetrable block, but in reality, it is more like a sponge. Concrete and blocks have microscopic pores that pull water from the earth through a process we call capillary action. This thick black substance is the shield that stops that water from climbing up into the house. It is not about making the wall look good because this part will be buried under the dirt forever. It is about creating a skin that water cannot breathe through. When do you need to do this? The need for this arises because the soil is a very aggressive environment. Water is not your only enemy.. The ground also contains salts and sulfates that want to eat away at the cement. If this moisture finds its way to the steel bars inside the columns, those bars will start to rust. And when steel rusts, it expands, and that expansion is what cracks the concrete from the inside out. This coating is the only thing standing between your foundation and that kind of slow destruction. Thats is why if you see wet patches at the bottom of your walls inside your house, it usually means someone skipped this step or did it poorly during construction. You can apply this anytime you are building parts of a structure that will stay in contact with the ground. It is common in areas where the water table is high or where the soil stays damp for most of the year. This is a one-shot opportunity. Once you backfill the soil, you can never go back to fix it without a lot of expense and a lot of digging. It is about having the foresight to protect the heart of the building while it is still exposed. Please don’t ignore this if you need to. If you ignore it now to save a bit of money, you will be funding the future decay of your own home. I hope this helps.

@contentmints This is where courtship, prayer with open mind and not blind love comes in. I remember my first bae I used to pray that she was my favorite & the best eventually things happened and we couldn’t marry when I saw her after many years I said Alhamdulillah. Marriage is Black market

I don’t know when I exploded during a call today 😂. A young girl was complaining about her parents not allowing her to marry the person of her choice, because they’re well-to-do, and they think the man might have chosen her because of their fortune. So I gave her step-by-step advice on what she needs to do. Then I rounded it up by telling her to break up with the guy if they still don’t approve. “If things don’t work out well in the marriage, you’ll still have them to turn back to, so don’t mess up your family because of a man,” I said. She responded by saying she doesn’t pray for that to happen, that is, she’s praying nothing will go wrong if she marries the young man. My voice immediately changed. I’ve seen so much. Any of the parties can be a victim of the wrong partner, but women almost always get the worse of it. For the remaining 15 minutes, it was a combination of advice and frank scolding. “What do you mean you don’t pray for that? No one prays for anything. Bad things just happen.” It’s okay to love someone. But don’t get blind. No matter how good someone is on the surface, you don’t know who they truly are until you live with them. Experiment and 100s of counselling sessions have taught me that.

@Pressman2040 @Mr_JAGs God bless our soldiers and grant them victory over the enemies. We appreciate you.

A surviving soldier from the Benisheikh attack told it raw: “They came like a swarm, but we remembered our oath. When the commander fell, we fought harder not for rank, but for the families behind us.” These men are fathers, husbands, brothers. One rescued civilian later said, “The soldiers ran into bullets so my children could sleep safe.” This is the human face of Operation Hadin Kai. Not just numbers real people paying the price so Nigeria stands. To every civilian reading: if you know someone in uniform, send them a prayer or a kind word today. Who else has a soldier in the family? Share their story respectfully. Let’s humanise the sacrifice.

@alapo_ Experience same at challenge Mobil station I was looking at the machine and suddenly the power went off and it added about 10k immediately I asked why and he told me that bcos the light went off I then ask why the machine not deducted 10k? assuming I’m distracted.

Please be cautious when buying petrol at filling stations. It’s the second time they’ve tried to scam me. The first incident happened at NNPC filling stations in Ojodu and the second this morning at Mobil Petrol and CNG station at the Challenge bus stop, Vono along the Agege motorway. After informing the attendant of the petrol amount I wanted, they programmed the same amount into the machine and started dispensing it. Suddenly, the machine stopped and the exact amount began blinking on the digital display. The first time at NNPC, I hadn’t experienced anything like it but was sceptical. I asked why the display only showed the figure and not the litres I bought. He said, “He thinks they changed the power switch, that’s why it’s like that.” It was early morning and I was travelling, so I wanted to believe him and continue on my way. However, I wasn’t convinced. I asked if the power was stable now and he said yes. I then asked, “Please display the total litres sold.” When I checked the last sale amount, it wasn’t up to what I wanted. After some back-and-forth, he called his colleague who pressed buttons on the other side of the machine. The exact amount he had dispensed then appeared on the display. I think he shorted me about 7-8k. I simply asked him to finish my petrol and left. When I saw the same digital display blinking this morning, I knew the lady was trying to pull a fast one on me. I asked why the display was blinking and she said the light went off and all that. I told her to pull the litres sold and she called her colleague. Suddenly, the exact amount she had sold appeared on the display. She had shorted me about 5-6k without me asking. She did the calculations and completed my sale. I’m certain they’ve successfully stolen from many people. Please be vigilant.

This man suffered heart attack, within moments responders acted, using an advanced CPR machine to bring him back to life. Do we have this kid of advanced machine in Nigeria
