Governor Seyi Makinde was 22 years when he moved to Port Harcourt & built a successive career & a business in the oil & gas industry there. He became very active in the social circle there. He even married an indigene of the region.
When it was time to pursue his political career, he came back to Ibadan, where he is from.
He didn't start fighting the Ikweres & the Ijaws for political positions by claiming he & his company pay tax in Port Harcourt & are therefore entitled to political offices in River State.
Be like Governor Seyi Makinde. Stop fighting the people of Amuwo Odofin & Oshodi Isolo for political positions - go back home & test your relevance.
Same people that celebrate Musicians for winning Grammy award or nomination are under this post asking what value does winning Quran competition add
What value does Asake's Grammy add to anyone?
What value does Lookman African best player add?
What value does Wole Soyinka's Nobel laureate award add?
Or it is only when Quran is involved that we start asking questions?
Yeye people everywhere
You willlllllll go to Umrah this new Islamic year.
You will give salaam to the Prophet.
You will have zamzam for breakfast, lunch and
dinner this year.
Point. Blank. Period!
The last World Cup was successfully hosted in an Arab country, and no nation was denied access to participate or attend.
A verse from the Qur’an was translated into English to educate the world about Islam's message of unity, coexistence, and mutual understanding among people, regardless of religion, tribe, or ethnicity.
This is the opening ceremony of the 2022 World Cup.
This was the World Cup everyone claimed Qatar couldn't pull off, but they ended up hosting arguably the best, most organised World Cup in recent memory.
The Quran recitation and the calm atmosphere gave it a unique feel never seen before.
Now, we wait to see what the upcoming tournament in North America will bring.
The bar has been set incredibly high, and it is going to take a lot more than the usual American corporate and media hype to match this level of soul and standard.
