"I laughed over the Ycee 'Olodo Uprising' topic, not because I found it funny, but because he was identifying something in his time. However, he was seeing the latter stage of something that started in my own generation when I was probably his age.
I spoke about weaponized ignorance for the first time in 1994 when I wrote a piece on it. He is identifying the same phenomenon. The 'Olodo Uprising' was fathered by weaponized ignorance."

Our Fore Fathers might be foolish in their dealings with most things but when it comes to Women???
Just adopt everything they practiced

Stella Okoli, the founder of Emzor Pharmaceuticals, how Obasanjo always engaged all the manufacturers in Nigeria.
During Obasanjo 's regime, all manufacturers in Nigeria used to have a meeting with the president in Aso Rock every Saturday.
The meeting was to discuss about manufacturers' challenges and how to drive the economy forward.
It was during that time he assisted Otedola,Tony Elumelu and Dangote.
That meeting quietly fizzled out and none is being held today.
Next week, I will be taking 3 students and 2 teachers to Rome, Italy, all expenses paid by me.
All visas have been issued and all arrangements have been sorted.
The students will represent Nigeria in the Maths and Science categories of the International STEM Olympiad.
They will compete alongside 154 other countries.
The students who won the 2026 South East Maths Olympiad and the teachers who supported them are going. Both the teachers and the students will experience growth together.
I will continue to push our bright minds to global stages.
In 10 years, I pray you will be alive to see the outcome of our investments in our children today.
Nobody in igboland will wash the corpse of your late husband and give you the water to drink as per oath taking as they suspect that you killed your husband.
The nonsense you watch in the Nollywood movies is not Igbo culture...it has never happened and will never happened... It's just more of folktales.
Gentlemen, when someone misbehaves, do not react so angrily that your response overshadows the initial misbehaviour and now becomes the issue.
Don’t end up being the one needing to apologise when you were initially the victim of bad behaviour.
Be clear that you will not accept or tolerate the misbehaviour, but be measured in how you express your disapproval. This is especially important when you are in a position of authority over the other person. It is also especially important in your relationship with your woman.
