Reminds me of the joke Padre Pio liked to tell:
One day St. Peter gave the keys back to Jesus Christ and said:
"Lord, I cant do this anymore!"
Jesus asked: "Why?"
St. Peter answered:
"Always when I close the gates of heaven, Your mother opens a backdoor!"
There's a reason we call her the Queen of Heaven.
My dear brothers and sisters,
Another election season is upon us. Our nation is strengthened when citizens choose responsibility over indifference. Catholic Social Teaching reminds us that every person has a duty to participate in the life of society and to work for the common good.
Exercising this civic responsibility begins with being prepared to participate in the electoral process. While the place of prayer in fostering good governance for our nation cannot be overstated, we also encourage all eligible Nigerian citizens to fulfil their civic responsibility with integrity, wisdom, and a deep commitment to the common good.
As the voter registration period gradually draws to a close on Sunday, 26 July 2026, let us prayerfully take the important step of obtaining our Permanent Voter Card (PVC) for the 2027 General Elections. In doing so, we affirm our hope for a Nigeria where justice prevails, leaders are accountable, and the dignity of every human person is upheld.
I've spent the last several months researching, travelling, and studying why countries like Singapore, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Canada and Finland built some of the world's best public education systems.
One thing became clear:
Nigeria doesn't just have an education problem. We have a school management problem.
Today, I'm releasing a white paper that proposes a new way to transform our public schools, keeping them publicly owned while introducing world-class management and accountability.
This isn't about politics.
It's about giving every Nigerian child the opportunity to attend a world-class public school.
I hope this sparks one of the most important conversations our country has had about education.
Read it. Criticise it. Improve it. Share it.
If we get education right, we change Nigeria.

The South East is making a choice.
We will double down on eliminating illiteracy.
Every child who cannot read, write and reason represents lost potential for our economy, our security and our future.
We are studying the education systems that consistently produce some of the world’s strongest learning outcomes, including Singapore and China.
We are no longer educating children just to survive.
We are educating them to compete globally and lead.
That is the future we are building.
I don’t think personal development is spoken of enough. Especially if you’re in your 20s, you should invest aggressively in yourself. This isn’t an argument against investing early, it’s for smarter capital allocation.
If spending on a cert or degree, moving to a better place for your productivity, buying a better laptop, outsourcing chores (buying back your time!) or attending the right event can increase your earning potential, that may be a better investment than putting it in any fund or stock.
You need to be able to weigh and use your money to build the life that earns you more money. Do I invest, yes, but I also allocate aggressively on my development
I have created a new device that can track anything anywhere in the world…
The name of the device is Smart AI Tracking System, it uses GPS, SIM, and AI technology
It is placed in children’s bags, cars, or animals so they can be tracked at any time
But that is not where its strength lies….
The AI inside it learns the usual routes, observes distance, and detects any unusual changes
If a child is kidnapped and taken somewhere unfamiliar…
it will activate an alarm
send the location instantly and give a warning that a child has been kidnapped
The same applies to animals like cows
It can detect them in real time if they are stolen or lost
Share it so it can reach everywhere in order to have the opportunity to improve it into a smaller size because its size is large due to the many sensors and modules inside it
i'm in love with this quote:
"if you're persistent, you'll get it. if you're consistent, you'll keep it. and if you're grateful, you'll attract more of it."
This region bears some of the world's most troubling labels: poverty capital, the highest number of out-of-school children, and a terrcrism hub.
Fortunately, a large percentage of these negative headlines comes from just one region.
I just found another beautiful verse❤️
MALACHI 3:10 the Bible says
"I will pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.” This will be your testimony from today!
There's the insane belief you'll have in yourself, that as you are going through your hard times - you'd be taking pictures and videos.
Because e too sure for you say, one day everything go blend.
Major cheat code for life: Assume good things are still ahead. You are not behind. You are not too late. You are not disqualified by your past. One new season can change the entire story. Keep showing up with belief. The best chapters are often written after the hardest ones.
This generation needs to decenter this AESTHETIC mentality.
You’re making a video in your fathers house and you started with “ignore the background”, because e no get POP,
For house wey your papa sweat build.
You’re starting a small business but you want it to be aesthetically pleasing straight away, wasting money on packaging.
Everything we do now we want it to be AESTHETICALLY PLEASING.
Let’s just free ourselves from this shackles and live freely.
I’ll keep saying it, a lot of you need to decenter that Instagram lavish way of life, so you can start thinking like normal humans.
You are a Nigerian , living in Nigeria, no special
talent or skill , fuel is 1300+, rent is skyrocketing everywhere, minimum wage is less than 100k. Trust me you are closer to being homeless than driving that 2025 gle.
If a Muslim can stand in London, New York, or Paris and publicly preach Islam, hand out Qurans, and invite people to become Muslim...
Why shouldn't a Christian be able to stand in Riyadh, Islamabad, or Kabul and publicly preach Christianity, hand out Bibles, and invite people to become Christian?
If we ask others to respect our religious freedom, shouldn't we be willing to respect theirs too?
Either freedom of religion is a principle.
Or it's a privilege we demand for ourselves but deny to others.
