That things stay popular doesn’t make them sound, and some pundits are experts at rehashing popular opinions.

Belgium indeed had a golden generation of footballers and Martinez remains the most successful manager they’ve had. They were top of FIFA ranking for three years. That’s golden. Bronze medalists at the World Cup.
That’s a feat many countries will never achieve.

Only 19 teams have won a medal in the 96-year history of the World Cup and Belgium are one of them. They weren’t before Martinez.

He has the highest winning rate of any Belgium coach in history. That third place in 2018 remains the biggest thing achieved in Belgian football. People look at international football coaches and think they see Sir Alex Ferguson.

Didier Deschamps has been France coach for 12 years, and he’s only won one trophy. If you tell that to a novice in football, they’ll think “one in a dozen years doesn’t seem a big achievement” but the nuances hold the facts.

Martinez could have won with Belgium simply because it’s international football and anyone can win. After all, Portugal won in 2016 when they were drab and dull. When you zoom in, you’ll appreciate the sheer difficulty of pulling any triumph internationally. But to paint him as a failure is being unfair.

He didn’t ‘waste’ a golden generation. He achieved some of their best feats with them.

Many golden generations have come and gone in football without winning. The label ‘golden’ is human. England had it, and they never made a semifinal. Brazil had it in 2006 and they didn’t go past the quarterfinals at the World Cup.

Cote D’Ivoire didn’t win jack with their golden generation. But you can’t dub them failures.

From a Nigerian perspective, our much-vaunted golden generation only went as far as the round of 16 at the World Cup and won the AFCON once. Anyone will be asinine to think of that generation as a failed one.

It’s not about the achievements you see at the end only. International football is ghetto. It’s hard to win there. You can be a national team manager for 20 years and not win a single thing, yet you’re doing a fantastic job.

There’s nothing that guarantees success in international football. You can do your best and that’s it. If you win, lucky. That Spain 2008-2012 run isn’t a feature. It’s a bug. We won’t see it every time.

To even think that the only senior international title of Schmeichel’s career was won by a coach he swore would ruin their football, and refused to play for initially because he disliked his methods. Not sure what he thinks about the man today. Maybe the best coach of their ‘golden’ generation?

This is Yakubu's legacy;

From 2015 to 2023, Mahmood Yakubu led INEC through two bloody, broken elections.

The 2023 polls, Nigeria’s costliest ever at ₦355 billion, were marred by sabotage, failed technology, and over 450 incidents of electoral violence.

Nigeria right now under Tinubu feels like the Pride Lands when Scar was in control (Lion King). Barren, fruitless and sad. And just like Scar, he doesn’t care. King of ruins is still a king. Terrible stuff

It was former NY governor Coumo that said,

"Campaign in poetry and govern in prose."

APC's version is

"Campaign in calumny, govern in contempt."

Never seen a more disastrous political party!

Nigerian math is so funny. “Lagos is expensive as a single person”, you’d think the next statement out here mouth will be, it’s cheaper for two people pooling resources together but nope.

When most people think about the future of transportation, they think about Silicon Valley, Tesla, or China.

Few think about Africa.

And that’s exactly why people like Obiora Okafor matter.

Known to many as “Dat EV Guy,” Obiora is one of the people quietly helping shape the future of electric mobility in Africa.

This is episode 1 of promoting my followers and their businesses.

With more than a decade of experience across fintech, payments, mobility, and emerging technologies, he’s not just talking about the future; he’s helping build it.

As COO of EV Automobiles Nigeria and founder of EV Place, a growing community of electric vehicle operators and enthusiasts, he’s on a mission to make electric vehicles easier to understand, adopt, and embrace across the continent.

What inspires me most is that he’s doing something many people overlook:

He’s creating awareness before mass adoption.

Because every major movement starts with education.

Every industry transformation starts with a few people willing to believe before everyone else does.

Today, Obiora uses his platform to educate thousands about electric vehicles, challenge misconceptions, and show Africans that the future of mobility isn’t something happening elsewhere.

It’s happening here.

And it’s being built by Africans.

If you’re interested in electric vehicles, clean energy, or the future of transportation in Africa, connect with him and join his EV community.

The future belongs to those who build it.

When the government wants to work, it will work

A government that can build this in 24 months can also build a 1004 complex of one and two-room apartments in Abuja, and destroy the high cost of rent and win elections

The same way the government used solar to power itself out of darkness, but left you in band A

Notice how corruption did not affect these projects

You, who are writing a draft to attack this post, tell me what the government has done for you personally

Your Excellency, unsurprisingly, this statement is an admission of failure, not a solution.

Lagosians do not need periodic emergency evacuations of mountains of refuse. What they need is a functional waste management system that prevents waste from accumulating in the first place.

For years, residents have endured overflowing dumps, uncollected refuse, blocked drainage channels, and worsening environmental conditions despite billions of naira allocated to environmental management.

The fact that you now have to “direct an immediate scale-up” after waste has already overwhelmed communities is an utter failure of leadership.

Indeed, Lagos generates over 13,000 tonnes of waste daily today, just as it did yesterday, last month, and last year. This is not a surprise. It is a known reality that should be planned for through efficient collection, waste sorting, recycling infrastructure, transfer stations, waste-to-energy investments, and transparent performance management of operators.

Like your commissioner, you cannot continue to shift responsibility to citizens to “bag their waste properly” when many communities are left without reliable and affordable waste collection services. Rightly, Citizens have a responsibility to dispose of waste properly, but government has an even greater responsibility to provide the infrastructure and systems that make proper disposal possible.

Lagos cannot continue operating reactive clean-up exercises and public relations statements whenever refuse piles become impossible to ignore.

Lagos deserves a modern, accountable, and sustainable waste management system: one that measures success not by the number of trucks deployed after a crisis, but by the absence of the crisis itself.

Again, Your Excellency, after seven years in office, why is Lagos still battling a problem that should have been solved through competent planning, execution, and oversight?

I guess the answer is obvious: if e didn’t dey, e didn’t dey.

We teach men to shrink themselves to the size of their pockets. We say to men, you can be vulnerable, but not too much. You should aim to be successful, but when you are starting small, be silent, don't talk about your salary, otherwise, you would lose sparkle with the woman. We teach men that we cannot be loved for who we are, and in whatever financial standing we find ourselves, in the way that women are.

Happy Men's Mental Health Month.

Accountable Borrowing: The South Africa Example.

I have consistently maintained that borrowing, in itself, is not a bad thing. Every nation borrows. The critical issue is not the act of borrowing, but what the borrowed funds are used for and whether citizens can clearly see and measure the impact of such borrowing in their daily lives.

There is a lot to learn in the open and transparent manner in which South Africa handled its recently secured a $1 billion loan from the New Development Bank, with a clearly defined purpose. Publicly announcing the targeted purpose of the loan for all to know and monitor, upgrading water supply systems, modernising sanitation infrastructure, improving electricity distribution, and strengthening waste management services across eight major metropolitan cities, including Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban.

This is indeed what accountable borrowing should look like; the purpose is clear, the projects are identifiable, and the expected benefits to citizens are measurable. Such investments directly improve living conditions, enhance productivity, and stimulate economic growth.

In Nigeria, however, the opposite is the case: public debt has risen dramatically under the current administration, and its deployment is shrouded in secrecy from the people who will indeed pay back the loan. Today, our total public debt has increased from about ₦87 trillion in 2023 to nearly ₦200 trillion.

Yet, despite this unprecedented accumulation of debt, Nigerians are often left without a clear and detailed account of how these borrowings are being deployed to improve critical sectors such as education, healthcare, power, security, and infrastructure.

Borrowing must never become an end in itself. Every loan obtained in the name of the Nigerian people must be tied to specific, productive investments capable of generating economic value, creating jobs, reducing poverty, and improving the welfare of citizens.

Good governance demands transparency and accountability. The government must be able to clearly explain what was borrowed, where it was invested, and what measurable outcomes have been achieved. The ordinary Nigerian should be able to see and feel the benefits of every debt incurred on their behalf.

At a time when millions of Nigerians are struggling with rising costs of living, unemployment, insecurity, and declining purchasing power, fiscal discipline and prudent management of public resources are no longer optional; they are imperative.

Every borrowing decision should answer one simple question: How does this improve the life of the ordinary Nigerian? If that question cannot be convincingly answered, then we risk merely transferring today's burdens to future generations.

Peter Obi has good intentions but no president in Nigeria today can Generate, transmit and distribute 10,000MW in 8 Years.

You know why?
1. We don't have the Money
2. We currently have legacy debt in the sector (this what caused the disruption about 2 months before Adelabu resigned)
3. We don't have the infrastructure
4 there's metering issues that seems to be unresolved

This is not to excuse any administration, I'm just pointing out the facts.

If you think anyone can achieve it please you can educate me.
