Honored to be at @UniHeidelberg today, delivering a keynote lecture titled: "From Knowing to Doing: Towards More Equitable Knowledge Systems."

[APHRC @aphrc]

Why is information integrity under threat?

The inaugural episode of The Inside Track, hosted by Garry Aslanyan, and expert commentators @CKyobutungi and Ricardo Baptista Leite, examines the fragile state of information integrity in global health. They explore how misinformation spreads, why public trust in science is eroding, and the responsibility health leaders carry in navigating today’s complex information environment.

Reflecting on this challenge, Dr. Kyobutungi notes: “The scientific community communicates in a certain way and has yet to fully adapt to the realities of the modern information economy. The purveyors of truth often lack the tools and skills needed to effectively engage and shape public understanding. One of the greatest failures in the global health community has been communication.”

So, who needs to step up and turn this around? Look out for upcoming episodes of The Inside Track.

@ThePadrepr These are heart troubling stories from boys. Is there a way we can harvest all these into a publication for a wider audience to access? I'm sure most of these personal experiences are hardly heard of from boys

[Agunbiade Ojo Melvin @OjoMelvin]

Many are awake, but asleep. The average Nigerian is awake, but disillusioned and too weak to face the truth. This slavery will continue until we are no more disillusioned and ready to demand accountability and transparency at all levels.

When I started teasing about the Portharcourt refinery saying they were blending. I knew the NNPC was just scamming and now the information is out the refinery just blended c5 and Naptha.

I will keep defending the truth for God and country!

You may have heard that Africa contributes only about 1% of scientific knowledge globally. But did you know that a majority of African academic journals are NOT indexed in the major bibliographic databases?

[Dr Penking™ @drpenking]

Enoch Adeboye spent 27 years of his life studying Mathematics, and obtained a PhD in Additional Mathematics (specialising in Hydrodynamics).

His PhD dissertation focused on Navier-Stoke Equation at the University of Lagos, Nigeria.

If you’re with us in global climate modeling and statistical downscaling, you will know that Navier-Stoke Equation is not a joke.

When he was young, Adeboye wanted to become a professor and rise to Vice Chancellorship at a young age. He bagged 1st Class in his Bachelor’s degree. Distinction in Master’s Degree.

He was a lecturer when ministry happened. He built the largest Pentecostal denomination in the world, with global coverage. The church has over 500 parishes in the USA alone.

Pastor Enoch Adeboye is the Chancellor of Redeemer University. He holds honorary citizenship in Maryland, Dallas and Massachusetts, USA.

The octogenarian has preached and planted churches in more than 140 nations of the world.

It takes a lot of management and administration to pull such behemoth movement and command global respect.

It’s good to remind ourselves the colossus we have with us in Nigeria. Intellectual honesty allows you to acknowledge greatness regardless of your sentiments.

let's give him his flowers
