Just like every other Friday, here’s my weekly soundcheck submission.
My playlist is basically a mirror of my mood throughout the week and this week… well, once you see the songs, you’ll understand better 🤲🏽.
"The internet feels incredibly homogenised..."
That was one of the first responses we got when we asked Gen Z what the internet genuinely feels like today.
The rest of the answers are just as honest.

How would you describe today's internet?
@Nkemcreatives For me it was Austin Kleon 'Steal Like an Artist' it opened my eyes to the idea that nothing is completely original....Everything keeps recycling in one way or another, and being creative is also about learning from other people's ideas and work.
There's something beautiful about choosing kindness. You won't always receive it in return, but the peace that comes from knowing you showed up with a good heart is worth it.
Engaging Tomorrow’s Leaders at Madonna University
Yesterday, I continued my engagement with future leaders in the country. I was at Madonna University, Okija Campus, where I had the privilege of interacting with students at the NextGen Mentorship & Leadership Initiative on the theme: “Beyond Now: Raising the Next Generation of Leaders.”
The session was highly engaging, with students asking thoughtful and probing questions. Their concerns reflected the frustration of many young Nigerians who feel constrained by poor governance and widespread corruption, which have denied them opportunities to realise their full potential. However, I was equally encouraged by their optimism and determination to be part of the solution.
I reminded them that leadership is the greatest determinant of a nation’s progress. A true leader must possess the character, competence, capacity, and compassion to make sacrifices for the good of the people. Nigeria’s future depends on leaders committed to safeguarding lives, investing in education, creating opportunities, and building effective institutions.
I encouraged the students to take their education seriously, to prepare themselves for leadership, and to see themselves not merely as spectators but as agents of change. Through active participation in the democratic process, they have the power to enthrone leaders with integrity and the capacity to propel our nation forward.
As part of my ongoing commitment to education, I presented a cheque of ₦15 million to the university to support its educational mission. Investing in education remains one of the most effective ways to develop the human capital necessary for national progress.
Together, by raising a new generation of responsible and visionary leaders, we can build the Nigeria of our dreams that is POssible. -PO

Before Surviving Biafra was released, it had already become one of the most debated documentaries in Nigeria.
The conversations weren't just about the film itself. They were about memory, representation, and who gets to tell a story as sensitive as the Nigerian Civil War [Biafran War].
After watching it, Fortune [@Datafricanboy] argues that the documentary succeeds in opening a door into that history. But he also came away feeling that some important perspectives and complexities were left unexplored.
