@YusufAsunmogejo Your Teacher couldn’t have been more right coz even though it is universally accepted that Prophet Muhammad SAW has the best ‘akhlaaq’ when he preached tauhid the disbelievers of Mecca even boycotted him SAW.
With all due respect, bringing back USAID cannot be your vision for diplomacy.
Stakeholders in developing countries from Africa to Asia to LatAm do not want to be permanent recipients of charity, they want econ partnerships & self-reliance. Further info:

Kachalla Odinga is responsible for this NW predicament.
PBAT had to go to the NE to look for a Vice Presidential candidate because Kachalla felt it was proper for him to succeed another Fulani Man from the NW after 8 years.
The words " step back or concession " do not appear in his dictionary. If a president emerges in 2031 without the huge contribution of the NW, then the region's political alignment and calculation will change forever.
The Middle Belt and ethnic minorities in the NE, NC, and NW would have broken the bloc. The natural ally, which is the SW, partly because of religious ties to Islam, is no longer on the table. The SS is gone completely.
The SE alliance will be tested by how well Obi performs in the core North. If it fails, then it will continue to fail.
The illusion of influence by the NW is gradually fading; the voting bloc is being carved up; the strategic alliances with the SW that produced 2 presidents of NW extraction, Yar'Adua and Buhari, are almost fractured; and the financial war chest to win an election is not there without the SS and the SW.
Kachalla's Odinga's name will be remembered as the man who, through his selfish ambition, destroyed a major opposition party in the PDP, stunted the political growth of aspiring politicians in his region with his 20-year ambition and 6 attempts at the presidency, and the NW's political and voting alignment.
@kevvwill Happy birthday Kev you are someone I hold in very high esteem and respect your opinions and I try to follow most of the tips you post here 😂 especially choosing peace always
Bro, these are all undemocratic actions that everyone should condemn. I’m all for healthy competition, but no amount of anger or frustration should lead to violence. We shouldn’t condone or justify it. As heated as the U.S. midterms were, we didn’t see such attacks on signage or individuals. Even AA wouldn’t want to pass this kind of politics on to us. Political differences should never be a reason to attack anyone, nor should our security agencies be targets of cheap blackmail. Perhaps we shouldn’t let desperate and overzealous advisers misinform and mislead us. I feel these repeated press conferences are forced, particularly when they centre on unsubstantiated claims like this one.

Leadership starts with simple habits. If keeping the environment clean is too much to ask, what example is he setting for the people?
Prominent Nigerian billionaire businessman, lotto pioneer, and philanthropist Chief Kessington Adebukunola Adebutu, popularly known as Baba Ijebu, marked his 91st birthday last week.
He celebrated the milestone by sharing photos with his family:
• Slide 1: With his children
• Slide 2: With his children and their spouses
• Slide 3: With his grandsons
• Slide 4: With his granddaughters
Plus those arewa pseudo-intellectual shitheads who think they have access to some esoteric knowledge just coz they read a few theories therefore in their delusional ass minds they're are somehow better than the rest of us, matsiyatan banza kawai.
I am deeply concerned by reports of another kidnapping attack at Nuru Suraj Estate, Millennium City, Chikun LGA, on the night of October 26 into October 27, with six people reportedly abducted, including two secondary school students. Millennium City is a growing residential community where families are building their lives and raising their children. It cannot become a place where residents live in constant fear of abduction.
This attack comes barely days after the release of Ahmed Zakka, his wife and their six-month-old daughter, while other victims remain unaccounted for or reportedly in captivity. This cycle of abductions must end. We cannot allow kidnapping to become the norm in Kaduna.
I commend the security personnel who responded to the latest attack. However, their efforts must be matched by sustained security operations to rescue those still in captivity, apprehend the perpetrators and prevent further attacks.
I call on the Kaduna State Government, the Nigeria Police Force and all relevant security agencies to intensify intelligence gathering, strengthen security across Millennium City and neighbouring communities, and ensure that those responsible are brought to justice.
We cannot continue to welcome released victims at Government House only to face fresh abductions days later. Arrests, assurances and public statements must translate into tangible results. The safety of our people is a fundamental responsibility, and our communities must not be surrendered to criminals.
The authorities must act with urgency. Rescue our people. Hunt down the perpetrators. Secure our communities. Make these attacks stop. May Allah protect our people and grant the safe return of everyone still in captivity.

Let me benefit you guys with a profound principle in Islamic jurisprudence based on what these young boys did.
The scholars established a clear rule that says:
لا إيثار في القرب، فإنما التسابق.
There is no giving preference to others when it comes to acts of worship.
What does this principle mean?
In worldly matters, stepping back and offering your share to someone else is a great virtue. For example, if there is only one portion of food left or a single vacant seat on a bus, Islam highly encourages you to offer it to your brother even if you need it.
The Almighty praised the believers for this very trait in the Quran, when He said:
ويؤثرون على أنفسهم ولو كان بهم خصاصة
They give preference to others over themselves, even if they are in hardship
But when it comes to acts that draw you closer to your Creator, the rule flips completely. You do not step back. You do not offer your spot in the first row of prayer to your friend. You do not give up your chance to call the Adhan out of false humility. It is a competition. You race for it.
Did you see how those two young boys were running to the microphone to call the Adhan? That eagerness is how it should be when it comes to worship.
The Almighty said:
فاستبقوا الخيرات
So race to all that is good.
He reinforced this mindset in another verse, saying:
وفي ذلك فليتنافس المتنافسون
And for this let the competitors compete.
When an opportunity for reward presents itself, you grab it. Seeing that kind of youthful zeal and competitive spirit for the Adhan is the true strength of the faith. We are commanded to compete aggressively for the pleasure of Allah.
Allah knows best.
Considering the current rampant security challenges in Millennium City, cutting off electricity at night leaves residents vulnerable and raises serious safety concerns. This is not the time to compromise the security of homes and neighbourhoods.
I’m appealing to @KadunaElectric on behalf of residents of Millennium City to please revisit your power outage schedule and ensure that power is available throughout the night when residents need it most for their safety and peace of mind. Kindly acknowledge this and treat it as a matter of urgency.
Thank you🙏🏻
