@asemota Thank God! I was reading her submissions and was afraid if this was a truth to be adopted, but thanks gracious a second opinion confirmed a different position. Anyone can now make their choice. Life is a continuous review. And scratches can always show in its game.
Wait...
You mean the 13 months doctors strike in Anambra had nothing to do with salaries or welfare issues...
This is serious.
So, the doctors went on strike because Peter Obi asked them to start accounting for the funding government hospitals received and when they failed, he partnered with churches and the private sector to restore stability in the health sector.
Ambulances and medical equipment were disappearing mysteriously and Obi no gree 😅
This is the same reason they impeached him. They asked him to pad budget, the guy no gree.
Very stubborn politician.
@theRealKiyosaki Lots of times, we don't realize how expensive ignorance and darkness could be. The dividend of light is exponential. (So also darkness's!)
Matter of reward-risk ratio.
@polyglotodulesi@Toniichris Amazing things really happen, truly. Jisie ike, onye nna. I was thinking of my 1 year service in Osun state today and desire to revive the little I built on my weak learning there, and continue from where I stopped. I just hope my landlord remembers me. Omoluabi 4eva!!!
Junior D’Tigress: Silver in Africa, World Cup Bound
I congratulate Nigeria’s U18 women’s basketball team, the Junior D��Tigress, on their impressive performance at the FIBA U18 Women’s AfroBasket Championship in Abidjan, where they emerged as African silver medallists and secured qualification for the 2027 FIBA U19 Women’s Basketball World Cup in China.
Although they lost the final 77–68 to Mali, the defending champions, their achievement deserves to be celebrated. These young Nigerians fought through the championship, reached the continental final, and earned the right to represent our country and Africa on the world stage next year.
I am particularly concerned, however, by what I have learned about the circumstances of their preparation. I understand that the complete team had only a few days together before the tournament, despite an earlier preparation programme that had envisaged a longer camping and integration period for the home-based and foreign-based players.
For a team assembled under such circumstances to reach an African final is a remarkable testimony to the talent, resilience, and determination of the girls, as well as to the commitment of their coaches, officials, and families who worked to make the best of a difficult situation.
But their success should not make us comfortable with the shortcomings that surrounded their preparation.
Nigeria has never lacked talented young people. From sports to science, technology, education, entrepreneurship, and the arts, our children continue to demonstrate that they can compete with the best anywhere in the world. Our challenge has always been whether we are prepared to build the systems that discover their talents early, develop them deliberately, and give them the support required to succeed.
We cannot continue to depend on individual brilliance and extraordinary sacrifice to compensate for institutional weaknesses. Our young people deserve better.
These girls have now earned a place at the World Cup. The lesson from Abidjan must therefore be that preparation for China should begin early. They should be kept together, properly trained, adequately supported, and given every opportunity to develop into a stronger and more cohesive team.
I commend the players, the coaching and technical crew, the basketball officials, and the parents whose sacrifices helped make this achievement possible. Their effort reminds us once again that committed Nigerians are everywhere; what we need are institutions that enable their commitment to produce even greater results.
To the girls, I say: hold your heads high. The silver medal is not the end of your journey. You have earned the opportunity to compete against the world, and I look forward to seeing you represent Nigeria with even greater distinction in China.
Congratulations, Junior D’Tigress. Nigeria is proud of you.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
@Hannieoflagos@asemota It's a terrible situation. And these monkeys don't understand that policy inconsistency and absence of rule of law is anti-capital inflow.
WORDS of TRANSFORMATION💥
Years ago, I was making a lot of money in the Rock n Roll business developing products for bands such as the Police, Van Halen, Iron Maiden and more. It was fun because I often got to hangout back stage with the band.
As much fun and profitable as it was….there was an emptiness growing in my soul.
Then I met and studied with one of my heroes ….Dr. R. Buckminster Fuller…and I studied with him for 3 summers.
Bucky is known as our planets “Friendly Genius” and a “Futurist.”
Bucky predicted such world changing changes such as Bitcoin today and the coming of AI.
One-day, sitting in his audience
I heard him say the following words:
“You do not belong to you. You belong to the Universe. Your true purpose may for ever be obscure to you….but you can rest assured you are fulfilling your life’s purpose….if you commit your life to the highest advantage of others.”
It took me awhile but today I am recognized world-wide for the creation of the boardgame “Cashflow “ and for writing the book “Rich Dad Poor Dad.”
Q: What is your life’s purpose ?
Q: What did God send you to earth to do?
Take care my fellow seeker of “Life’s Purpose.”
And always remember,,,”You do not belong to you……”
@FinPlanKaluAja1 Facts over there. We have a serious issue with financial literacy and business ethics, and the which we are not even clearly aware of how it impacts better business opportunities and growth. I dey learn how small-mindedness coined as guy-man is undoing opportunities. 🥹
They say, “If you build it, they will come.”
Dangote has attracted both the Norwegian Sovereign Fund and Goldman Sachs to Nigeria.
One man.
I still predict that, at the current rate, Dangote alone will, at some point, generate more FX revenue for the Nigerian Federation than all other private companies combined.
@FinPlanKaluAja1 Honestly, I used to wonder how rule of law issues could matter in economic activities to investors until I began investing. I now appreciate what it means to say that capital is a coward. No one wants stories with their money.
