To My Lover, Foluke.
Great has been the journey of walking side by side with you. And so today, on your 78th birthday, is a gift to me, to have the world join me in doing what I have spent 58 years doing: celebrating you.
With you, the weight of the assignment has always been a lighter cross to carry. Our two have agreed, and so our walking together has been of divine stride, a race continuously illuminated, step after step, decade after decade. My path shines brighter because I walk it with you.
Many people know you as Mummy G.O. I have the privilege of knowing you simply as my wife, my friend, and the person who has stood with me through every challenge, every victory, and every assignment God has given us. I have watched you give strength to others even when you were tired yourself. I have seen your quiet sacrifices, your compassion, your wisdom, and your unwavering trust in God. Those are the things that make me thank God for you every day.
Our children have been blessed because of your love. The family of God has been blessed because of your devotion. Countless homes have been strengthened because you answered God’s call with all your heart.
Seventy-eight years of your life, fifty-eight years of them beside me, and still I find new reasons to thank God for you. You have been wife, counsel, and companion in every sense the word was ever meant to hold.
As you celebrate today, my prayer is simple. May the God whom you have served so faithfully continue to uphold you. May He surround you with His peace, fill your days with fresh joy, strengthen your body, renew your strength, and continue to satisfy you with His goodness. May the years ahead be even more fruitful than those behind, and may you continue to see the mighty hand of God at work in your life.
Thank you for walking hand in hand with me. Happy 78th birthday, my love.
Your loving husband,

Dear Blessing,
I just came across your tweet, and it truly inspired me.
To graduate with a First Class in Mathematics from UNILORIN and then earn a fully funded Master's admission in Italy is an extraordinary achievement. You have demonstrated excellence and the promise that exists in so many young Nigerians.
No young person who has worked this hard should have such an opportunity limited by the cost of getting there. It would be my privilege to support your journey by covering what is left in the cost of your relocation.
@nancy_i_i from my office will reach out to you today.
Congratulations once again. Go, excel, and continue to make Nigeria proud.
Donated! Sharing so that anyone on my TL who is moved to support, should please do so. She's a first class math grad from Unilorin and 4.3M is standing between her and a fully funded masters in Italy.
I don't share stories like this often, but this one is worth your attention.
Meet Adisa Blessing Oluwafikayo. First-Class graduate in Mathematics from UNILORIN, CGPA 4.76/5.0. This is no small feat, she put in so much to get here.
She earned a fully funded Master's scholarship in Mathematics at the University of Calabria, Italy. Tuition, accommodation, meals, and stipend all covered. This is the kind of opportunity that can change a family's story for good, for life.
She has already paid her enrollment fee. She used her tutoring savings and borrowed from friends to get this far.
What she needs now is €3,122 (about ₦4.9 million) to cover her visa, flight, document processing, and initial settlement in Italy. The scholarship does not cover this part, and without it, she cannot travel to start what she has already earned.
This is someone who did the work and is one step away from the finish line.
If you can support her, even a small amount helps.
If you cannot, a share costs nothing and might reach someone who can 🙏🏾
