@sapphire_nifemi@TonyOElumelu is the group chairman and not her office mate or colleague. Hence the need for that specific correction. Otherwise since the great days of STB we addressed each other by our first name, our then CEO (which was TOE) included. Great memories I still have of those days

“There is a picture that circulated of a boy who was carrying his dead brother on his back to bury him In Japan, during the war.
A soldier noticed him and asked him to throw away the dead child so that he would not get tired. The boy replied: He's not heavy, that's my brother!" The soldier understood and broke down in tears.
Since then, the image has become a symbol of unity in Japan.
Let this be our motto too in 2025:
Lets look out for one another!
Happy New Year.
@SaharaReporters From God we all we came and unto He we shall return. Very sad news to read about one of my past amiable lecturer. May her gentle soul rest in peace 🙏

Billionaire’ Femi Otedola in a telephone interview, was asked by the radio presenter, "Sir what can you remember made you a happy man in life?"
Femi said: “I have gone through four stages of happiness in life and finally I understood the meaning of true happiness.
The first stage was to accumulate wealth and means. But at this stage I did not get the happiness I wanted.
Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items. But I realized that the effect of this thing is also temporary and the lustre of valuable things does not last long.
Then came the third stage of getting big projects. That was when I was holding 95% of diesel supply in Nigeria and Africa. I was also the largest vessel owner in Africa and Asia. But even here I did not get the happiness I had imagined.
The fourth stage was the time a friend of mine asked me to buy wheelchair for some disabled children. Just about 200 kids.
At the friend's request, I immediately bought the wheelchairs. But the friend insisted that I go with him and hand over the wheelchairs to the children. I got ready and went with him.
There I gave these wheel chairs to these children with my own hands. I saw the strange glow of happiness on the faces of these children. I saw them all sitting on the wheelchairs, moving around and having fun.
It was as if they had arrived at a picnic spot where they are sharing a jackpot wining.
I felt real joy inside me. When I decided to leave one of the kids grabbed my legs. I tried to free my legs gently but the child stared at my face and held my legs tightly.
I bent down and asked the child: Do you need something else? The answer this child gave me not only made me happy but also changed my attitude to life completely.
This child said: “I want to remember your face so that when I meet you in heaven, I will be able to recognize you and thank you once again.”
You have never lived until you help who doesn't have the ability to pay you back. Help someone today and make the world a better place to stay
@MobilePunch Our judiciary and legal system should not allow any ex governor or indeed any politician who is out of office to obtain any frivolous court order to restrain incoming administrations from lawfully retrieving public assets taken away during transition periods. Stop d thievery!
@channelstv@bulamabukarti is right in pointing out this important point 4 President @officialABAT to consider when deciding on who should occupy that sensitive office in my opinion. Even though just as he rightly pointed out that PBAT has very efficient people 2 advise him accordingly
@renoomokri I commend you for the exceptional (free) efforts you are always making to assist fellow Nigerians by encouraging them through very worthwhile motivational guide videos such as this. For whatever it's worth I want to thank and appreciate you 🙏
@MobilePunch@AAdeleke_01 I have immense respect and admiration for you because of the gift of personality and character that God Almighty blessed you with. I pray sir that the good people of #Oshun state will continue to benefit from your awesome style of leadership. God bless you sir🙏
@dawisu It's the turn of @honbetara1 Insha Allah. We are looking towards having a very competent, descent, hard working and people oriented person to lead the house of representatives as speaker. It is clear that none of the contenders can match #betara
@SaharaReporters Stop reporting RUBBISH please. He was not killed over months of unpaid salaries. That came from small talks around d neighborhood where d incident took place. Check out d facts of d story first. What's the rush writing about a man who was shot right in front of his family?
@Moore1xx@mrlurvy@honbetara1@officialABAT@KashimSM Yes we did allow our people to choose who represents them for sure. Not sure about yours though, cause it's entirely up to yours to also decide that, not any business of mine. Again I repeat myself, LET THE ELECTED MEMBERS DECIDE WHO SHOULD LEAD THE HOUSE.
MBA is no doubt the visionary leader who has the requisite capacity to provide leadership as speaker house of representatives. The nation needs tested individuals like him for the success of the next administration @honbetara1@OfficialAPCNg@officialABAT@MBuhari
I have lived more of my adult life abroad. Yet, I speak multiple Nigerian languages, named all my children Nigerian names, wear Nigerian clothes, even to the US Congress, and promote Nigeria everywhere and every time. Why? Because my value is tied to Nigeria's value. Italians who have been in America for over two hundred years still bear Italian names and speak their language. Ditto the French and Spanish. Yoruba is posh. Itsekiri is classy. Hausa is dignified. Igbo is poetic. Don't be ashamed of your language. It is not vernacular. It is spectacular. Speak it to your children so it does not go out. Don't bear names like George, Williams, Anderson and Alexander. Bear Gbenga, Tuoyo, Mainasara, and Emeka with pride. Wear agbada, or aso oke, or akwete cloth. It will make you stand out. It will make you unique. Don't conform to the West. Even if your name is Maimagani, they can pronounce it if you have money. Is that name more complicated than Zbigniew Brzezinski? Yet they can pronounce that.

@SaharaReporters Let the honorable members decide who to lead them. The best man for the job is no other than @honbetara1 . He is a unifier, a smart and able leader who has been tested in very many different committees, also well experienced and level headed
