Never, for the sake of peace and quiet, deny your own experience or convictions-Dag Hammarskjold

[Oreoluwa Bukola, CFA. @BukkyOA]

Can’t lie to you. If you don’t make a move, you will see literal clowns race past you. Clowns.

Nothing concern life with ‘I am a smart, educated, experienced person’.

You don’t act, you remain there.

[Vala Afshar @ValaAfshar]

To reduce your stress, try not to have strong and loud opinions about everything.

Smart people are selectively ignorant about most things, and focused on some things.

[Dr. Abubakar Baba @DrKayBaba]

Amman yujību al-muḍṭarra idhā da‘āhu wa yakshifu as-sū’a wa yaj‘alukum khulafā’a al-arḍ. A-ilāhun ma‘a Allāh? Qalīlan mā tadhakkarūn.

In the end, only one thing is yours to keep: the manner of your going.

[Dr. Abubakar Baba @DrKayBaba]

Never beg to belong where your presence isn’t valued. The signs always whisper before they scream.

[Dr. Abubakar Baba @DrKayBaba]

The hardest pill to swallow isn’t failure. it’s accepting that some doors were never meant to stay open.Taking an L will break ur heart before it builds ur wisdom. But once u embrace the lesson, you stop chasing what’s already letting you go.

[Ahmad @Ahmad_YSF]

You should be thankful when you become the first person for people to reach out to when they need help.

May our roots hold deep while the seasons shift, and our kindness remain the only thing that doesn't.

Africa Finance Corporation is helping drive a US$7 billion fertiliser expansion programme by @DangoteGroup designed to triple production capacity in Nigeria and establish a major new manufacturing platform in Ethiopia.

As a cornerstone commitment to the programme, AFC is providing a US$600 million facility to Greenview Fertiliser Corp. (Greenview), Dangote’s fertiliser holding company. The transaction deepens AFC’s longstanding partnership with Dangote Group across some of Africa’s most consequential industrial projects.

Do stop by anytime.

We back NMFP because the science demands it.

People pay attention to the Amazon. To the Congo Basin. Those are the forests that appear in climate conversations, in policy briefs, in the public imagination. Montane forests rarely make that list.

Professor Hazel Chapman, who founded NMFP after decades of studying tropical forests, is direct about what that oversight costs us. African montane forests make up just 8% of the continent's forest cover. But they hold endemic species found nowhere else, they are the sources of the rivers that millions of people depend on, and they help regulate the climate for entire regions.

And then there is the carbon finding. A study conducted across Africa, with Ngel Nyaki as one of its sites, found that Afromontane forests store more carbon per unit area than Amazonian forests. In Chapman's words: a real surprise. One that reframes what these overlooked ecosystems are actually worth.

The altitude is not incidental. Cooler temperatures slow decomposition. Soils accumulate carbon at rates that lowland forests cannot match. The forest canopy captures moisture directly from passing clouds, feeding river systems that supply the communities and agricultural land below.

Therefore, we support NMFP because protecting Ngel Nyaki is an investment in regional climate resilience.
