Happy birthday to me.
As an MSc Employment Relations & HR Management graduate and Digital Marketing Strategist, today I celebrate purpose, progress, and the journey ahead.
Here’s to building people, brands, and better systems.
Whether Aliko Dangote accepts Bae U’s invitation to appear on his YouTube show or not, this clip can be leveraged in upcoming episodes to drive engagement across his socials.
This brief pitch is likely to generate significant exposure and attract global attention for him.
Bae U Invites Aliko Dangote To Appear On His YouTube Show
Bae U to Aliko Dangote: “You don’t have to stand; sit down, it’s fine. Most of the interviews we see you in are on platforms that my generation doesn’t watch. I think it’s high time we had the man with the biggest refinery on the biggest show on YouTube. Out of curiosity, when do you think we can have you on the show, sir?”
Dangote’s response:
If you are a beneficiary of the ₦658.9bn FG claims to have disbursed to 10.46 Million poor households as World Bank calls for improved cash transfers, kindly SIGNIFY by uploading receipts.
FG Disburses ₦658.9bn To 10.46 Million Poor Households As World Bank Calls For Improved Cash Transfers
The Federal Government has reportedly paid ₦658.9bn in direct cash transfers to 10.46 million poor and vulnerable households as of September 2026, but the World Bank has called for improvements to ensure the programme provides more effective and sustained relief.
The recommendation was contained in the bank’s latest Nigeria Development Update, titled ‘Beyond the Federal Purse: How Higher Revenues Shaped State Priorities’, which examined economic conditions and measures to cushion Nigerians against financial hardship.
According to the report, the government deployed biometric and digital verification systems to identify eligible beneficiaries and facilitate payments under the cash transfer programme.
While acknowledging the reported disbursement, the World Bank stressed that the programme’s impact would depend on reaching more households, providing sufficient financial assistance and ensuring payments are made consistently.
“Social protection and service delivery can help cushion households against these pressures, though their effectiveness will continue to depend on coverage, adequacy, and continuity,” the report stated.
The bank urged the authorities to accelerate efforts to expand the programme, improve the value of payments and ensure regular disbursements to strengthen its contribution to household welfare.
It also called on the Federal Government and state governments to establish a sustainable funding structure for social protection, warning against continued dependence on emergency interventions.
“Building on this progress, the next step is to move from an emergency response toward a regular, sustainable social protection system, with dedicated budget lines at the federal and state levels, gradually increasing financing from government resources, and a shared overarching vision,” the report added.
According to the World Bank, predictable funding and coordinated action by both levels of government would help ensure vulnerable Nigerians receive consistent assistance rather than relying on temporary relief measures.
Those of you sliding into my DMs, telling me you love me, please, let me set the record straight.
In 2015 before my marriage introduction, in the presence of my husband, my father gave me a clear warning. He said:
“If he maltreats you, beats you, or ever lays his hands on you, come back home.
But if you cheat on him and he sends you away, don't come back to my house.”
This is your final warning.
The next time anyone sends me such a DM, I will publish your name.
