Wait, what’s happening with Waste Management in Lagos for the past couple of weeks or months? Like, who’s in charge and why is LAWMA not doing their job?
Two coworkers met in a restroom at work and started talking while washing their hands.
That simple conversation ended up saving two lives.
Tia Wimbush and Susan Ellis both worked in the IT department at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. At home, both women were carrying the same fear. Their husbands were suffering from kidney failure, and both men needed transplants.
Tia wanted to donate to her husband Rodney, but she was not a match.
Susan wanted to donate to her husband Lance, but she was not a match either.
Then, during that unexpected conversation, they discovered something incredible.
Tia’s blood type could help Susan’s husband.
Susan’s blood type could help Tia’s husband.
After medical testing, doctors confirmed it. Each woman was a compatible kidney donor for the other woman’s husband.
On March 19, 2021, the surgeries took place. Tia donated one of her kidneys to Lance, and Susan donated one of hers to Rodney.
Two wives, two husbands, two families, and one rare act of love that connected them forever.
What began as a normal workday conversation became a life-saving miracle.
One of the biggest problems with our political system is that many of our leaders are career politicians. They have spent their entire adult lives climbing the political ladder until they reach positions of power.
Many of them have never worked in a structured organization where they learned how effective systems are built and managed. They have never created wealth or managed a successful enterprise. They have never experienced environments where merit, competence, and accountability determine who gets ahead.
They have also missed the kind of exposure that shapes decision-makers, like world-class training, diverse professional teams, and organizations where performance is measured and poor decisions have real consequences.
Their greatest qualification has simply been surviving politics.
Make no mistake, politics is important, but governing requires much more than political survival. It requires leadership, competence, sound judgement, and a deep understanding of how successful systems work.
If we want better outcomes as a nation, we need more people in public office who know how to build, manage, and improve systems, not just win/rig elections.
One of the reasons we are seeing the rise of the Olodo culture is that many intelligent people are too quiet. They hesitate to put their work out there or raise their voice. They think nobody will listen. They assume there are already enough intellectuals writing articles, making podcasts, or posting on Twitter and other platforms. Some even believe they’re too intelligent to engage in everyday social discussions.
But when thoughtful people stay silent, they create a vacuum. And as we all know, nature abhors a vacuum.
That Vaccum is quickly filled by people who are more confident than competent. People who are not afraid to speak, create content, or dominate the conversation, regardless of the quality of what they have to say.
If knowledgeable people refuse to participate in public discourse, they shouldn't be surprised when less informed voices shape public opinion, and when Olodos start being role models.
Also, education and intelligence aren’t the same thing. There are thoughtful people who never had much access to school, and there are highly educated people who confidently spread nonsense 😂

when Michelle said Barack has “stubborn optimism” I realized I also really want that in a partner. Somebody who isn’t moved by life’s shortcomings but ALWAYS sees the light at the end of the tunnel. That’s a true leader, not just of a country but a household. what a legacy.
What a time sports fans are having! Arsenal Premier League, Knicks NBA Champions, Lewis Hamilton just won in Barcelona. What’s next? A Ronaldo World Cup?
