@Nigerianidol @Daravit_ This is not what we are watching right now. The best are been sent home. Poor judgement.

@Nigerianidol @geneithpharmltd You sent Udeme who should have gotten a platinum ticket home. Abeg tell me which other idol you are looking for. Nonsense

There is just one reason why Nigeria has not been able to come close to attaining its potential, let alone attaining it. And it’s not, like many believe, corruption. It’s this: Nigeria is not a nation. It’s a territorial state. It’s a country. Without nationhood, it has no future

@Kadunaelectric @Kadunaelectric Don't stop now. You've been doing a good job providing updates.

I packed my travel suitcase to catch a 10 a.m. flight. I wanted to be an hour early, after all, I wasn't in Lagos, where I have to be at the airport a day ahead 😒

As I walked into the elevator, rolling my black suitcase casually. My eyes rose up, and two elderly ladies and a man were already inside. We all headed for the ground floor from the 34th.

As we approach the 25th floor, the elevator cracks & stops. We all panic in fear. The ladies were screaming, but I remained calm.

We try calling the reception, and they apologize. "Pls remain calm, a team is en route". 25 minutes later, we are still inside this elevator, and I'm already sweating. I don't want to miss my flight, so I prayed.

A team of armored personnel eventually opens the elevator, & the ladies are screaming, while medics are holding us. I rushed out, avoiding the first aid team, to catch my flight, but I eventually arrived 7 minutes late, missing my flight.

God knows, I didn't want to be part of the drama back at the hotel. I booked the next flight for 3 p.m. and kept asking myself, "Why is this happening to me?
Then a voice reminds me as usual; Remember, Orondaam, "nothing happens to you, but for you."

It was 2 p.m., and my new flight was called. I settled into my seat, lost in thought. As the flight took off, I decided to take the time to review some documents for the meeting I was going to the next day.

As I was engrossed in my work, the elderly black woman sitting next to me glanced at me, and asked. Are you Otto Orondaam? Yes, I am, ma'am, I replied.

Oh, lovely, I am Dr. Editha, and I sit on the global board of XYZ. You'll be meeting with us tomorrow morning. I read about you, and I was so impressed."

Wow! I was in complete shock.

We spent the rest of the 5-hour flight talking about our shared vision & their global programs. I still couldn't imagine what was happening.

What had seemed like an unfortunate loss, was God's redirection. That lady ended up becoming a great mentor and cheerleader. An incredible angel!

This event, just like many others, has made me believe that our future is predestined and that nothing happens by chance.

So friends, always remember, "Nothing happens to you, but for you, ❤️

It was all joy as we launched our new project,the Ungwan Baro Literacy Hub with a teacher-training seminar. It was a great time to talk about how we can improve the quality of education accessible to the children of this community.
Thank you @WorldConnectUS for partnering with us

This is where this Almajiri boy slept despite this hazzy cold harmathan weather. I'll never understand how educated folks keep defending this nonsense practice.

I finally carried out my social experiment. I drove around Ikeja at about 11:50pm, in mufti, in a private car. I passed through two police points. I spent five seconds at the first without a word from the police officer. He simply waved me on. 1/6

When Peter Obi became the Governor of Anambra, APGA had no Structure & no legislators. He was impeached 5 months later, by a PDP led House, because he refused to approve their inflated budget. He went to court, won & was reinstated. Obi is the kind of man we want. 👏👏

This is normal. Was recruited back 2007 as thug for Murtala Nyako and we're paid 10k for 6months after he won. Every end of month, we will line up at Galadima Aminu way.

Just drugs, fight, fight and sickness. Until I met the man that changed my entire existence. And he's Igbo.

You're "good at politics" because your state can deliver 1.5 trillion votes from a 1 million total population. Fine.

But if Microsoft sets up in your state tomorrow and asks for just 50 software engineers to hire, your state doesn't have them.

Good at politics? Give me a break.

[David Hundeyin @DavidHundeyin]

"Igbos aren't good at politics" isn't even a smart opinion. 4 of the 10 states with highest HDI in Nigeria are in the southeast.

14 of the bottom 14 are in the north.

You might be good at elections, but make no mistake about it, you're terrible at politics
