These are some of the items recovered from a mansion used as stash house in Lekki Lagos where over N5.8 billion worth of illicit drugs were seized by @ndlea_nigeria officers at the weekend. That’s the much saved from getting into our homes by those targeting our children with illicit substances packaged in designer sachets like the ones in these pictures. In case, you see anything like this in your wastebasket at home, seek help for your young ones at home immediately.
If you know any young person that wrote JAMB(UTME) this year and scored upto 220...tell him/her to apply for Mastercard Foundation scholarship at Pan-Atlantic University! Deadline is May 22nd!

Resharing, someone needs it.
I didn’t use to believe in witches and wizards until I got on Twitter. That was when I realized they were such a digital force. The whole “your village people” guys don’t have near enough evil as the vile and demonic nature of these folks.
They want to destroy you till you disappear.
@Omojuwa Not like they're dumb or they don't listen to the smart ones around them they just don't always care what other ppl think as long as they're doing what their people wants. They're not to be blamed actually because can he try this somewhere else if not here. See damage control na
@OgbeniDipo Very contradictory. They always find narratives to support their bias and since a lot of them share the same bias it's easy to tweet jagons Everytime and they'll overlook it. They're perfect human beings u know. Like they always say everyone who doesn't share their bias is evil.
@FabrizioRomano@rioferdy5 Stfu! You were not the first to go there.players were there even before you dreamt of going there. Nobody went there because of you, they all went there cos of money including u! You went berserk when things weren't going ur way and now you have something important to say..huh?
“Time will tell” is one of the most underrated phrases out there.
When NELFUND started, I begged a lot of students in UI to enroll. I just wanted the policy to work. I was actively selling NELFUND to people.
People were skeptical. And to be fair, the questions were valid. Even after explanations, many were not convinced. @NELFUND even sent delegates down to UI to engage students directly.
Suddenly, UI, who had increased the school fees by like 200%, gave a one week deadline for students to pay. A lot of students decided to try NELFUND.
At that point, early applicants had already been paid. Then we heard disbursement was once per session. That was the moment it almost fell apart. Because what will now happen to people that I convinced to register for NELFUND?
We pushed. We shalayed. We did a lot of back and forth. And yes, God bless @duchessmabboud for coming through when it mattered.
NELFUND agreed to disburse again.
Now here is where it gets interesting.
About 1000 students were approved in the first batch. The second batch? Over 3000.
People couldn’t believe their eyes when their loans were approved. My phone did not rest. Calls, messages, confirmations. Those who had already paid started pushing for refunds from the school.
The craziest part was the monthly stipend. There is also an option to get a monthly stipend of 20k on the NELFUND portal. They usually pay the stipend around 25/26th of every month. Once it’s 27th like this and the money hasn’t dropped, I’ll start seeing call and message saying “You people have not paid us o.”
I don’t even work for NELFUND. 😭😭
On a brighter side, I’m actually very happy that NELFUND is a success and they didn’t disappoint us.
Till this day, I still receive calls and messages regarding NELFUND. And I’m always happy to assist, because I saw firsthand what it did for people.
NELFUND is a very big deal. So when people reduce it to noise on social media, I just smile.
Go to the streets and ask real students. NELFUND has changed people’s lives fr.

And for the ones who continue to blab about “dining”, “frolicking “ etc. That’s a delusional narrative for honoring a president’s invite. But if we apply your “Dining” logic broadly to others, your hypocrisy becomes obvious and you will scramble to make excuses.
The truth is I will continue to engage the government wherever necessary because it’s a duty of leadership. Not easy but necessary for the sake of the children and for solutions. Engagement is not endorsement.
My fight is different, and your own fight is valid. But take it to the appropriate quarters and quit wasting your time here.
My oga has said I should leave you people alone now, so, as you were…
There are many J15 graduates that have never been given a role in any movie production by any producer before.
Trained actors but nobody is calling them for work
There are many graduates for OAFP that are still struggling to be featured in a movie, even if it’ll be for free, they just wanna appear and show their talent
But nobody is calling them for work
A lot of trained actors are at home depressed because producers will not call them for work
Nowadays, producers are only looking for skit makers, tiktok popular faces, instagram stars with big followers
That is why many film these days lack quality
Poor acting, poor role interpretation
That is why there is always a fall out between producers and the unprofessional actors they call for job
An unprofessional actor that you just pick somewhere to come and work will never respect and appreciate you
To them, you’re not doing them a favor, they believe you are also gaining from their popularity and you’re both doing each other favour
A lot of things need to be corrected in the movie industry for real
Especially Yoruba movie industry
If they are not careful, I pray the years of hard work of people like Oga Bello, Jide Kosoko, Ogogo and Yinka Quadri of Odunfa caucus, will not go down the drain
GO BACK TO YOUR ROOT AND START USING THE PROFESSIONALS
