This Dangote Cement Shareholder urges successful Nigerian companies to list on the stock market.

He says they should not be stingy with their profit by remaining a private company.

And it is unacceptable to enjoy your profit alone but call others to patronize your business.

I think your question already contains the trap: “what value is he creating?”

What value is anyone creating by watching movies? In the most literal, uncharitable sense, cinema is absurd: sane people pretending to be other people, crying over invented tragedies, fighting imaginary enemies, dying fake deaths, and collecting awards for make-believe. To generations or cultures not used to it, that too would sound like organised stupidity.

But it is art because it creates feeling, escape, humour, spectacle, memory, and cultural conversation.

That is the point. Peller, G-Fresh, Murja Kunya and the others you mentioned may not appeal to you or me, but they obviously make some people laugh. That is why they are in business. That is why they command a following. Entertainment does not need to pass through our personal taste to qualify as entertainment.

We may call it foolishness, but every generation has dismissed the popular taste of another as the end of civilisation. Rap was once treated as an olodo uprising. Today, it is one of the dominant cultural forms in the world.

As for the doggerels currently passing for spoken word, let me not even open that chapter. To each their own.

Most of the world's problems arise from small-mindedness, the thinking that life revolves around one's petty concerns, and the failure to imagine that reality is far grander, richer and more nuanced than one's narrow perspective.

[Ilemona @I_Am_Ilemona]

This is exactly what they think - because they live behind high walls & have generators running constantly and are fed on tax payers dime, they don't believe people are suffering.

It doesn't stop there. They don't believe the country is insecure. They don't believe the roads are bad. They don't believe education is in the pits. They don't believe we lack access to healthcare.

They think all our pain and suffering are lies manufactured by the opposition to get them out of power.

He's told you exactly what the Tinubu admin thinks of you. The question is what are you going to do about it?

Watching Ilorin after the passing of its Grand Imam has made me fall in love with the city even more. The Emir announced a new Imam, and there was no controversy, no division, no campaigns, no noise. Whether he was someone's son, grandson, student, or relative became secondary to the trust placed in the process.

The people simply accepted and united.

For a moment, it felt like reading the stories of the Sahabah again, when hearts were attached to principles more than personalities, and the success of the Ummah mattered more than individual ambitions.

In a world where positions often create conflict, Ilorin continues to showcase a quiet beauty of Islam: respect for knowledge, trust in leadership, and submission to what benefits the Ummah.

Show me a sweeter example of Islam in practice; that city continues to teach that the beauty of Islam is not only found in our books and sermons, but in how we conduct ourselves when tested.

May Allah preserve the people of Ilorin and make us all people of unity. 🤲🏾

Contrary to what everyone is saying - I think the Kabiyesi is doing the right thing here. I am Iwo son 💯 and I give kudos to him for this.

Even though I don't like his behavior & utterances but for this one, he has done what an elder should do.

Preach peace!

My village Ogbaagbaa (Iwo) has a lot of these Fulani guys and they're well known, they bother nobody. We have never had issues with them and our farms are safe.

If you want peace as a leader, community engagement is the best way to go and he has done that. Sending them away is calling for trouble & he's made them understand you're one of us and we welcome you.

They're a stakeholder in Iwo community and environs, the Oba is right on this.

May peace reign in Nigeria 🙏

[Assistpro Solutions @assiztpro]

One of the things I find frustrating is when some people believe every challenge they face is because someone is “doing” them. The moment something goes wrong, they immediately start looking for a person to blame.

Life comes with ups and downs. Not every delay, disappointment, or setback is spiritual attack or someone’s handiwork. Sometimes, challenges are simply a part of life, and the sooner we accept that, the better we’ll be able to handle them.

[Arojinle @arojinle1]

I made a video about the people who are dropping account details from giveaways from bandits and some people are defending it, citing poverty. If poverty can push you into doing that, then, that poverty can surely push you into killing people or becoming a bandit yourself. The poverty can push you into harbouring criminals for a few coins or even giving out information to kidnappers.

There has to be a limit one cannot cross for money, no matter how poor they are.

[Ayobami @dondekojo]

When people say that GEJ is the only VP that replaced the President they show a lack of understanding of the things playing out before their eyes.

Since 1999, without fail, the VP coalition has replaced every President in same party transitions. Every single time.

Yar’adua’s PDM that picked Atiku replaced OBJ.

Bola Tinubu’s coalition that picked Osinbajo replaced Buhari.

100% tested and proven formula.
