As I profane the awakened path, As I draw breath from the dying stars, As I levitate amongst the falling gods, As I obliterate the who's who and who's not.

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

The ancient Greeks had two words for time. 😀

Chronos - the ticking clock, the calendar, the birthday that reminds you another year is gone.

And Kairos - the moment of meaning, the instant that changes everything.

Most people spend their entire lives in Chronos, counting years, dreading the number.

They never realize that a single Kairos moment; one conversation, one decision, one brutal honest look in the mirror can outweigh a decade of Chronos.

You’re not running out of time. You’re running out of meaningful moments.
Those you can still choose.

What’s one outdated business practice companies still defend today that will look ridiculous by 2030?

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

If you had $10,000 to invest today, would you put it into stocks, crypto, AI startups, real estate, or building your own business?

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

We assume life is made of major decisions, but most destinies are built from repeated minor choices that nobody would think to write about.

A person’s character is often revealed by what they do with power, but their soul is often revealed by what they do with powerlessness.

@berbzz_ @omodaddyjnr Very yeye story

@SirJarus It’s part of their online identity - mostly part of a gimmick to posture to gather followers or look tough.

I have someone here I know always cursing in political arguments, but in real life, if you shout at him, he will cry.

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

lol. Like 4 starting from 2010?😟

@berbzz_ You no get wahala. 😒

Walking is super effective. 1 hour plus. Moderate to slightly quick pace. Easy 350-600 calories burn.

When we see our ancestors and their frame and marvel, most of it is largely due to their very active lifestyle - which was mostly walking.

Except you really know your way around a gym or have a trainer, you may not burn more than 100 calories doing some routines that looks like you did a lot🙃

[Oyíndà @yorubachic]

If you want to lose weight don't prioritise the gym over walking. I promise you, WALKING is the answer. Walk everywhere and you’ll see results.

A SpaceX IPO of $135 per share would make Elon Musk a trillionaire - first ever in history. His estimated net worth as of today is about $823.3 billion.

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

@yorubachic @DavidOgundipe3 Yes. Very possible

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

@berbzz_ I mean it has its benefits. A whole lot Infact. But I find that most people are hardly ever serious and will socialize and do small lifts here and there then act shocked when not meeting their weight loss goals. Lost 20kg before off of just walking and playing football.

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

Life is crazy. How does one explain PSG losing a generational talent in Mbappe, and doing a treble then doing back to back UCL title clinches? They did everything to keep him, lost him for free and it seemed all was lost.

Teams that build a proposal content library usually do it after a crisis.

It's either a key writer left mid-bid.

Or A recurring question took four hours to answer because no one could find the last approved version.

Or An executive pushed back on language that had already been approved six months ago on a different contract.

A content library, even a simple, well-organized folder of approved boilerplate, past performance summaries, and methodology blocks is one of the highest-leverage investments a proposal team can make.

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

The proposal industry is shifting fast.

72% of top-performing RFP teams now use AI tools in their proposal process.

But here’s what the data also shows: the teams seeing the biggest gains aren’t replacing human judgment with AI, they’re using it to save time on content reuse and formatting so writers can focus on strategy and differentiation.

AI handles the layers. Expertise builds the argument.

The internet has bridged a massive gap. Today, geography doesn’t fully imprison ambition the way it used to.

You can absorb ideas, lifestyles, and success models from anywhere in the world without ever leaving your room.

[Dr. Oyewole Abidemi @Themandemi]

@berbzz_ Allow allow🙃

@berbzz_ But Una no Dey play good football and win trophy too.

So na collabo😉

Tbh it’s a little too late.

When the narrative was running wild, out of fear of losing favour or being attacked by your camp, most of you ignored.

Final Part

Understanding Public Frustration While Recognizing the Wrong Target: Pastor E.A. Adeboye Is Not Our Problem

No, Pastor Adeboye is not our problem. He speaks.

He spoke in the 1990s.
He spoke in the early 2000s.
He spoke in 2010.
He spoke in 2020.
He spoke in 2025.

He has spoken across administrations, regardless of who governed or governs as President. The real question is:

How many of us were listening?

Did I hear you ask, “What did he say, and when?”

I will share two of the most relevant examples- not only because they are factual, but because they embody the pathway forward for our beleaguered country, if we are finally ready to listen, act, and compel our government to lead the reforms Pastor Adeboye has long advocated.

1. November 2025 - A Direct Public Message to President Tinubu

Contrary to the misinformation circulating online, Pastor Adeboye’s strong message was delivered in November 2025, during the Holy Ghost Service- not this week.

He said:

“You can only advise the Commander‑in‑Chief; you cannot command him. But I’ve tried. God is my witness.”
“Tell our security chiefs to get rid of these terrorists within 90 days or resign.”
He added:
“They must eliminate the terrorists and their sponsors, no matter how influential.”

These are not the words of a passive observer.
These are the words of a citizen - an influential leader - demanding results, accountability, and consequences for failure.

This is the same Pastor Adeboye some are attacking today.

He issued one of the strongest public demands for accountability ever made by a Nigerian religious leader. But how many of us were listening? What did the President do with that message? And what did we do with it?

2. October 1, 2020 - A Public Call for Structural Reform

At a national governance forum co‑organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and the Nehemiah Leadership Institute to mark Nigeria’s 60th Independence Anniversary, Pastor Adeboye critiqued our dysfunctional governance structure:

“It is ridiculous that a traditional ruler must inform a local government chairman before he travels.”

He went further:

“We all know that we must restructure. It is either we restructure or we break. You don’t have to be a prophet to know that. Now, we don’t want to break up - God forbid.”

He proposed a “United States of Nigeria” - a governance model with a President and a Prime Minister, rooted in institutional effectiveness.

These are not the words of a man indifferent to Nigeria’s future.

Nigeria is structurally dysfunctional. As presently constituted, cycles of elections without correcting the underlying structure will only degrade - but God forbid- collapse this country.

Now that we know - from just two of his many significant public statements that Pastor Adeboye has long been speaking truth to power on the hydra-headed crises that cripple our nation‑building process, the real question becomes:

What are we all now going to do about it?

“Shall these bones live?”
Like Ezekiel in the valley of dry bones, we stand in a moment of national reckoning.
The bones can live - but only if we act.

It is time for Nigerians to let the image of our 2‑year‑old baby held captive by our common enemies galvanize us to collectively rescue that child and through her rescue our nation.

The answer, my compatriots, is in our own hands.
