Today is #DayoftheGirl!
This year’s theme, Girls’ Vision for the Future, is a call to build a world that is safe and inclusive for girls worldwide.
We must turn girls’ vision into reality.
#InternationalDayOfTheGirl
In Nigeria, about 7.6 million girls remain out of school and 44% of girls get married before the age of 18. This totals to 24 million child brides.
We all have a responsibility to do better in choosing leaders that invest in policies for our girls and our society.

Happy International Day of the Girl Child. The theme for this year is “Girls' Vision for the Future”

If you know me, you know I really like my father. Not because he’s perfect, which in many ways he is, but rather because he gives room for growth and learning everyday. He is know as Bros J.
He is my friend.
He served Nigeria as a military personnel since he was in secondary school and reached the peak of his career.
Since he’s retired now, I sometimes ask him to follow me on some official assignments and he does 😂
He supports my bookclub and every initiative I have
