The UN has backed an African-led push to move beyond the centuries-old Mercator map, voting 164–1 for more accurate representations of Africa and other regions.

For those who like to understand what this means, I published what the “Correct the Map” resolution means here:

You got a short temper but you dont ever hit or yell at your boss or colleagues,just your family members?

Again, if you sabi book, it will take you to places you never imagined.

If you're from a poor home, academic excellence is one of the most democratic ways to lift yourself out of poverty.

Grind while still in school. Face your studies please.

And there was nothing extraordinary about me. Nearly everyone in my peer group, if not all was like this.

About 53 years after Nigeria's independence, I could identify several of the former Heads of State, & Prime Ministers (abbl) by pictures. And yeah, I wasn't up to 16 y/o then!

There's no need to excuse the drastic decline in kids' learning curiosity about our history, sir!

50% of the Nigerian population was not yet born when Obasanjo was President.

That’s 100 million people.

Think hard about that.

Yesterday, I said, and I quote:

“And then OBJ gets a new audience (including many who didn't really know his presidency), and CMMA affirms itself (deservedly) as a show that can pull a former President. It's a special 'television' moment in Nigeria.”

@ksAmarachukwu @dave_adeniyi @fisayosoyombo @fijnigeria I think it is. I think it's a matter of region. I also couldn't see it, but I found out those in Italy could access it.

@DukeInvenire @fisayosoyombo @fijnigeria I recommend this movie: Io Capitano

['motola @DukeInvenire]

@dave_adeniyi @fisayosoyombo @fijnigeria You're the second person recommending this movie to me, sir. I'll definitely check it out.

[Samuel Ọládipúpọ̀ @iya_samu_son]

@DukeInvenire @fisayosoyombo @fijnigeria Oloture didn't do justice to the story , go watch Lo Capitano ✅

['motola @DukeInvenire]

@iya_samu_son @fisayosoyombo @fijnigeria Oh, wow. I'll definitely check it out. Thank you for the recommendation.

I spent 47 days as one of several thousand African migrants seeking to enter Europe through the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea.

Story on @fijnigeria tomorrow, Thursday and on Friday.

['motola @DukeInvenire]

This is indeed outstanding, Sir!

Taking this route to expose the mechanics of trafficking around migration to Europe via the Sahara Desert takes an extra level of grit, conviction & boldness, knowing fully well how it may end.

Lol. It's not forgivable.

My younger brother was born the same year he left office. One of my cousins (a female) was born a year after. They both know OBJ as a former president of the country.

[ERINLÁKÁTABÚ OF IWOLAND @Ogbeni__Skrtel]

Maybe this is forgivable, I don’t know.

None of them could be more than 5 years of age when Obasanjo left office

['motola @DukeInvenire]

@OgunleyeOS No lies. Bro said anything to appear like he made a top decision. 😂

['motola @DukeInvenire]

I hope he's jumping buses on Lagos' streets, to avoid getting comfortable in his car(s) also.

“I’ve never slept in any house I bought with my own money. If you do, you’ll become too relaxed. Despite being in a beautiful estate, I still live in rented apartments and pay rent. When I pay ₦50 million a year, I use that pain to keep grinding harder.”
