@iam_Reignz That's why we mustn't remain there. It's not a good place to stay. Thank you for engaging.🤗

I have been reflecting on how that we have a long way to go in transforming our minds as Nigerians. This issue of suppressing the masses is not only a 'politician-masses' thing. Most people given a little amount of power tend to do exactly the same thing.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.😁🤗

One last lesson I learnt from this incident is that the worse place you can find yourself is at the bottom. There are seasons in our lives where we find ourselves there. But don't stay there. Move up and move fast. Don't stay at the disadvantaged position for long.

You don't know what they are going through. And your simple teasing can throw them into a serious depression. So, be careful. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

I saw some people yesterday after a while. And the next thing someone greeted me with the words: "Aunty Orobo, how are you?". I warned her immediately; "You know my name. You don't address me that way".

If you're too proud to say that. Just greet them and go. Let their closest family members and friends do that work. Know your place!

Don't address people by their size or looks. E.g., aunty Orobo, lenge lenge that destroys, big head, leg like cane, etc.
