I sometimes feel like some people are in the wrong career and don’t even realize it. The job pays the bills, but are they truly happy doing it?
During a one-on-one Teams call with my manager, after we finished talking about work, she asked about my family. I asked about her family too, and somehow the conversation drifted to the cattle business they have. Her father owns a sheep farm and her boyfriend has a herd of about 150 cattle.
The moment she started talking about it, everything changed. Her face lit up. She smiled from ear to ear, explaining the business, the day-to-day operations, and how everything works. If you’ve watched Yellowstone, you’ll understand the kind of picture she was painting. I just sat there smiling because her excitement was contagious.
Then she held up her phone to the camera and showed me a video. A long line of bulls and cows was moving toward a pen across this massive stretch of land. It was beautiful to watch.
She kept talking about the business, and honestly, I didn’t want her to stop. I didn’t fully understand every part of the process, but one thing was obvious, it involved logistics, inventory, planning, and coordination. She’s already an experienced manager with years of knowledge, so I asked if she handled any of the business side of things.
She paused and said no. Then she admitted she would actually love to help track stock and sales, but she wasn’t sure how her boyfriend would feel about it, so she had never offered.
I don’t know the full story and didn’t think it was my place to pry. Any operation of that size can benefit from someone keeping track of inventory. Knowing what comes in, what goes out, and what remains is useful for records, planning, and taxes. I wish she was involved!
After the call ended, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Maybe she would be happier doing that full-time. Maybe she could even help grow it beyond what it is today. Some people talk about their jobs. Others light up when they talk about what they truly love. There’s a difference.
This Europe x Islam bromance on the rise has me shaking my head.
Hard lessons will be learnt.
This one will teach many generations.
How did Fela say it; “Trouble sleep, yanga go wake am. Palava e dey find”.
I remember when they told Nigerians to go to court.
They started tracking court cases on Twitter.
Doing analysis and following court judgment from one court to the other.
They even went all the way to the SC with high hopes.
Little did they know that they people that sent them to the courts have control of the courts and were confident it wouldn't work.
@AbdulMahmud01 Atiku isn't smart at all...Bwala just left APC, Atiku appointed him as spokesperson for his campaign, few him to Dubai. I was wondering was there nobody in the entire PDP from north to south who could handle that role for him? it had to be the newest decampee from APC.
How did men like Reno become spokespersons to Dr Jonathan, Bwala to Atiku; and both to Tinubu?
It is the logic of a useless political class that rewards loud loyalty and elevates the deplorable to the podiums of power.
There is a reason I won’t stop talking about what @winexviv is doing in the Southeast.
Did you see how he redirected the attention and conversation from agitation to educational reforms?
Economic growth and liberation in the Southeast will come from solid educational background and not agitation.
The South East Maths Olympiad will be bigger and better next year.

The Holy Spirit is not only for speaking in tongues. He should help you bridle your tongue, work on your character, soften your heart, and humble you enough to apologize when you’re wrong. The work of the Holy Spirit in your life should start from within💛
🇨🇺 JUST IN – While Nigerians Normalize Blackouts, Protests Have Erupted in Cuba After 2 Days Without Power
Protests have broken out in parts of Havana, Cuba, after residents endured more than 60 hours without electricity following a major nationwide blackout.
The outage began around March 4, 2026, after a failure at the Antonio Guiteras thermoelectric power plant, one of the country’s main power facilities. The incident left millions without electricity, affecting Havana and several western and central regions of the island.
By the night of March 6–7, frustrated residents in neighborhoods including Jesús María in Habana Vieja and parts of Matanzas began staging cacerolazos, banging pots and pans from homes and streets in protest of the prolonged outages, shortages, and worsening living conditions.
Some protesters were also heard chanting calls for “freedom” as anger over the blackout spread.
The most hurtful part was @mehdirhasan telling Bwala “you think this is funny…” as that shameless man laughed. He was talking about poverty, about deaths and about the dire state of 🇳🇬 but Bwala was laughing as if they were talking sports.
An idea of how the Presidency is on a typical work day. They just laugh at us.
In the midst of Igbo people being marginalized in Nigeria, Alex Onyia @winexviv organized a successful South-East Maths Olympiad. He didn’t ask children to sit at home, attack his own people, or burn markets. He invested in education & the future instead. That’s real leadership.
Nothing has contributed more to the docility, selfishness, and extreme individualism we see in Nigeria today than Nigerian pastors.
For decades many of them have trained people to look inward instead of outward. Everything is about personal breakthrough, personal blessing, personal protection, personal prosperity. Very little is said about civic responsibility, justice, accountability, or standing up for the vulnerable.
A society cannot build a healthy collective culture when its most influential voices constantly preach survival and personal miracles instead of duty to one another.
So people retreat into themselves.
Pray for yourself.
Protect your own.
Secure your own breakthrough.
And slowly the idea of community, sacrifice, and shared responsibility disappears.
If you train millions of people to believe that every problem is spiritual and every solution is personal prayer, you should not be surprised when those same people become passive in the face of real world problems.
Here is the thing: the reason Daniel is not ashamed to share this train wreck of an interview is that he knows that Nigeria does not reward ethics. It does not reward shame. Nigeria is where shame goes to die. Nigeria does not reward morality. The only crime in Nigeria is poverty. And so he works for his supper the only way he knows how. This interview will do nothing to dent his already battered image. Just like Tolu Ogunlesi. Who insulted you over seedless grapes. Just like Reuben Abati during Jonathan. This too shall pass and Nigerians will forget and he will one day win elections in his local government and become a Federal Representative or Senator. Or become a well paid commentator. Daniel as odious as he is, is only a mirror of what Nigeria allows. He will be fine. His children will be fine. And he will never lack friends in and outside government.
