Dr. Ijeoma Akunyili, the daughter of the late Prof. Dora Akunyili, has been appointed Chief Medical Officer of Jersey City Medical Center, USA.
She becomes the first Black physician to lead the hospital since its founding in 1882.
Let's retweet to celebrate her! 🙏
Don't hate pls.
I have always maintained that the strength of any organisation is based on how many leaders you have within the set-up. Leaders don't need formal titles to function. They simply take the initiative correctly, interpreting the dream of the coach while in the field.
I believe this is one of the reasons Liverpool is succeeding, the number of national captains in the team.
The list
Virgil van Dijk - Captain of the Netherlands
Andy Robertson - Captain of Scotland
Mohamed Salah - Captain of Egypt
Endo - Captain of Japan
Conor Bradley - Captain of Northern Ireland for the Belarus match
Dominik Szoboszlai - Captain of Hungary
Ibrahima Konate (captained France during their win against Israel)
Alisson (captained Brazil a few times)
Luis Diaz (captained Colombia.
Raise leaders, they won't rebel. Only pretenders do that. They organise, motivate, and take responsibility.
What is one thing you are doing wrong, that you are aware of, that you could fix?
Meditate on this, and take it seriously.
It may not be what you want to fix, but it very well may be something you need to fix.
Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Olukayode Egbetokun says insufficient manpower is hindering the agency’s efforts to tackle crime, saying the police need an extra 190,000 personnel to effectively man the country.
According to him, while the UN recommended one police personnel to 460 citizens ratio, Nigeria has a police-citizen ratio of 1-650.
“Therefore, the NPF requires an additional 190,000 personnel to be at parity with the United Nations recommended ratio,” he said.

Pastor Taiwo Odukoya
(1956 - 2023)
Words fail us to describe the pain of the past few days… our hearts are heavy, but through it all, we have the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit to comfort and strengthen us at this time.
We are encouraged by the scriptures, to give thanks to the Lord in all things; therefore, we thank God for the life of our son, the late Pastor Taiwo Daniel Odukoya, and all that he characterised.
It was indeed a blessing and privilege to have known the man… what a man!
To our beloved Fountaineers @TFOLC; as you know, we loved Pastor Taiwo so dearly, and by extension, you all, as the bountiful fruits of his ministry.
Therefore, be assured of our commitment to you even at this difficult time, knowing that you are not alone, and we are all in this together.
More importantly, never forget that God is with you and for you, and His plans for you have not changed — He has it all figured out.
Our hearts and prayers are with all his children — Tolu, Jimmy, Tobi, Jomiloju and Timilehin, and the extended Odukoya family, for the comfort of the Holy Spirit and the strength to further his legacy into the future.
Stay strong beloved, it is well!

Alcohol is the devil. All you need is one bad night of it to ruin your life. Can happen in a flash countless ways. Why it’s called “spirits” can take over your soul & have you do things-usually wouldn’t.
Happens daily to many people. Booze has been normalized.
Let’s change that
If folks like @fkeyamo, @realFFK, and their likes were not directly benefiting from this government, they definitely will spit more venum than the suffering masses are doing now against the gov. I know this for a fact because they've done it in the past. Sadly, many Nigerians in their position won't act any different from them. This underscores the need prioritise the restoration of strong moral values in our society. We need to groom men of honour, not political scavengers hustling to satisfy their belly at the expense of their honour and integrity.
You may seek power and come to power. You may steal power and hold onto power. You may be born into power and thus live in power. But whether sought, stolen or granted, your time of power will one day surrender to the POWER of time!
