There is no serious economic development strategy that can be built around GOOD LEADERSHIP alone. Leadership is an instrument for converting economic advantages into prosperity; it is not a replacement for those advantages. Rwanda with good leadership is still poorer than Nigeria.

This is Ekiti, a stunning blend of morning mist over ancient mountains, smooth roads opening up new opportunities, and a rich culture driving every bit of our growth.
Beyond the beautiful landscapes, it is our heritage and our unstoppable drive for progress that truly define who we are. Experience the heartbeat of a state on the move.

URGENT PUBLIC APPEAL
I never imagined having to make a post like this, but I desperately need your help.
On October 31, while covering a wedding at Oriental Hotel, Lagos, my bag was stolen from inside the bride's room.
The bag contained my MacBook Pro M1 and
FOUR external hard drives holding approximately FIVE weddings yet to be delivered to my clients.
These are not just files. They are people's once in a lifetime memories, months of hard work and my livelihood.
Thankfully, we have obtained CCTV footage showing the individual entering, taking my bag and leaving the hotel.
I'm offering a N500,000 REWARD for credible information leading to the identification of this individual and recovery of my belongings through the appropriate authorities.
Please you can send a message or call this number for any update 09033892670
Please guys help me repost abeg, this is very important please. 🙏🏾
Shout-out to the woman who spoke to the rest of the people in the queue and asked them to let me skip the line because I was seriously unwell at the hospital yesterday.

I now understand the importance of having a female child.
I was really sick today, and my sister came all the way to the hospital to be with me. She eventually took me to her house so she could personally look after me.
Honestly, moments like this make you appreciate the special place a daughter holds in a family. ❤️

I’m vulnerable around the people I love and those who love me. I’m still that person who calls his mum when he catches a cold or has a bit of catarrh.

To understand why poor societies end up creating expensive customs (e.g ostentatious and expensive wedding parties), you may have to think about these words of Oscar Wilde: "The only thing that can console one for being poor is extravagance. The only thing that can console one for being rich is economy."
On the trending Ayeta debate, my dad once told me a story about how Fela almost lost his life in 1994(or so).
According to the story, Fela had engaged a Babalawo to perform Ayeta for him. After the spiritual fortification, it was time to test its effectiveness, and the test was supposed to be conducted directly on Fela.
Fortunately, his brother, Dr. Beko Ransome-Kuti, arrived just in time and explained that such things were traditionally tested on animals first.
Fela suggested they use his dog. An ordinary Shakabula (Dane gun) was used, and the bullet killed the dog.
Agilekege the Babalawo was almost beaten to stupor by Fela’s boys😂

The pinnacle of loyalty is remaining faithful even when circumstances give you every reason to betray that loyalty.
