Let's create a plot.

Title: How To Be A Nigerian Assassin
Genre: Action Comedy
Limited series
Available on @NetflixNaija

Plot: a world renowned assassin returns to Nigeria to see her family and renew her passport, also (secretly) to see her highschool crush who has (finally) divorced his wife.

Passport office does not have paper so she's stuck for a few more days but luckily there's a Nigerian target and her mission begins... To fail.
Target only comes out once a year from Kano for their daughter's birthday in Abuja and back to Kano they go.

Target must be eliminated in 48 hours else they will push the button on a plot that will destabilize the west African economy for the next 50 years

Between missed flights, night bus, escaping kidnappers and finding time to meet with crush, will our assassin be able to survive all the obstacles and take out the target in time and not trigger an African civil war?

There are no qualifications you need to be a “real” writer.

You DON'T need:
❌ An MFA or writing degree
❌ To be a certain age
❌ Prior publications

You DO need:
✅ To write

Even the most accomplished authors experience imposter syndrome. But remember this:

Writing is hard.

Getting a job? Even harder.
But rejection doesn’t necessarily mean you’re not good enough.

according to psychology, the biggest problem for overthinkers is when they get too attached to someone their entire mood depends on how other person responds to them. they are so attuned to other people's emotions that they can notice the slightest change in someone's behavior

It’s exam season again. I assist blind students in Unilag to write exams (for about two years now). There’s still a huge gap in their learning and exam process and we need more volunteers. You can signify in the comments if you’re interested.

It has already been said that the diligence you put into your work is what will seat you among kings.

But you may be feeling lost, not knowing how far out you are from a point of success.

Relax, my friend.

The easiest way to ensure you’re making progress is to make sure your good decisions outnumber your bad decisions on a daily basis.

So stand up, shower, use your roll on, then go out and prosper, my kings and queens 💪🏾

Good morning 🌞 🚀✨

For me, reading is my coping mechanism. The more shege I see, the more I turn to books to fuel my delusions.

Then, I really love reading books. From front cover to back cover, that's how I find acknowledgments I really love.

Today, it is with humility and a great sense of honour that I thank each and every one of the 166 WTO members for the consensus they achieved in supporting my reappointment! Thank you for the wonderful words of recognition and support. I don’t take this lightly. I also want to thank my colleagues in the Secretariat Staff for their dedication and hard work.

This is an enormous responsibility and I will redouble my efforts to work with each and every member to try and deliver the results this organization needs, including the necessary reforms to make it fit for 21st century challenges. We’ve done it before, we can do it again! I am also grateful to my family, my country, to the Africa Region, and to all my friends and colleagues from all over the world who have reached out with hundreds of congratulatory messages. Thank you for the recognition!

My act of micro-activism is to trying to be the change I want to see instead of blaming others for not taking action.

Here is a directory from my office spanning hell centers for women across the 36 states in Nigeria ✨
