Jimoh Ibrahim is a political appointee to the UN to talk to the UN about and for Nigeria. He's not the UN.

Also see his cap? We are practicing the idolatry form of govt in Nigeria.

Ronaldo stans, Mourinho fans and Maga all have something in common with who they Stan for. If you draw a Venn diagram they would all intertwine somewhere.

Off the top of my head they’re all united in conspiracies, siege mentality. Terrible sore losers too.

A very underrated life decision is marrying someone who wants a simple life.

Let me tell you about the picture in Frame 1.

In August 2017, as a litigation lawyer in Lagos, I had work to do that required me to be at the office during the weekend.

There was only one problem that weekend.

I had a 16 months old son, no nanny and no one to leave him with at home so I asked my boss if I could bring him with me and she was gracious enough to agree. While I was working, my son fell asleep and I had to lay him down on the floor beside my table.

In that moment, I took a picture of him sleeping and made a promise to myself that if I ever had my own firm, at some point in that journey, no woman working with me who had a caregiver emergency and needs to be at work will have to lay her baby on the floor.

That same day, I thought of my struggles as a breastfeeding mother in the workplace and promised again that no woman working with me who had a baby will ever have to struggle for a private space to use her breast pump at work, relieve her aching breast to focus and save some quality milk for her baby.

Frame 2
Today, we finished the renovation of our office building complete with a nursing room.

Litigation is tough for women.

The firm should not make it tougher.

Strichland LP has a nursing room and today, by the grace of God, I kept that promise.

I used to have this guy as a friend. He has money oh, not Aliko Dangote kind of money, but he lives a soft life!

We met through football and became close. But as our friendship grew, I started noticing something strange about him, he cheats people casually.

He would say, “Bro, give me cash, I’ll transfer it to you,” and you would never see the transfer.
He bought party tickets from me, I no see the transfer.
Collected cash from me, no transfer.
One day he bought food from a vendor in my area, and later she kept telling me she never received the money from my friend. Anytime I confronted him, his usual response was, “Bro, I go do am later.”

On my mum’s birthday, I invited him but he couldn’t make it. He showed up the next day instead, and my mum had to stress herself cooking another pot of ukwa just so he could eat. We all ate and drank. As he was leaving, he asked for my mum’s account number. She gave it to him. He told her he had sent her a birthday gift.

My mum was so happy. She thanked him and prayed for him.

Knowing him, I kept asking her, “How much did he send?” She said she hadn’t seen any alert. I told her to relax, that it would come.

After three days, nothing.

So I went to a POS agent, sent my mum 50k, and later called her. She said she had received the money. I told her it was from my friend.

From that day till today, whenever we see each other, our greeting doesn’t go beyond, “How far my bro.”

The Royal Family and the UK government are teetering on the edge of collapse due to Epstein. Meanwhile, not a single member of the US government, of the Trump administration, has properly apologized, let alone quit, let alone been criminally investigated, for their Trump ties.

I haven’t slept through the night since Min. of a health Ali Pate revealed that only N36 million was released for capital projects for the health ministry last year.

N500 million was released to SA to the President on Media& Policy comms for ‘strategic global media engagement’

Every year, like clockwork since 2015, I receive a personalised diary from @Babalakinandco. On the surface, it is just a diary. In reality, it is a quiet lesson in human relationships.

In 2014, hampers and gifts arrived at my home like an avalanche. I was never deceived. I knew they were meant for the office—the Minister of Aviation—not for me as a person.

I had already seen this cycle up close, having served three Ministers as an aide: the rise, the peak of power, the scramble for access, and then the silence when the office disappears. Experience is a strict teacher.

What the public often forgets is that behind the convoy is a human being. Behind the sirens is a man or woman carrying the same insecurities, doubts, hopes, and emotional needs as anyone else.

Power does not immunise a person against vulnerability; in fact, it often deepens it.

So when those who once besieged you daily, who never missed a birthday, Christmas, or New Year message, suddenly go quiet, it hurts. Not because of entitlement, but because exclusion is painful to every human being.

And when people complain that former officeholders become distant or “mean,” it is often misread. It is not meanness. It is awakening. It is the moment you realise that most affection was transactional, and most loyalty was rented.

That is why small gestures matter.

When someone like Wale Babalakin, who is an Airport operator in the Aviation sector, continues, year after year, to do something as simple as keeping your name on a diary list, it takes on a deeper meaning.

You begin to ask yourself: What would it really cost to buy a ₦1,000 card? To send a message. To say, “I remember you.”

Recently, I read a report of the son of former President Buhari reflecting on how his phone stopped ringing after power left his father’s hands. I understood it immediately. I could emotionally relate.

In the end, we all arrive at the same conclusion:
Civilisation is not technology. It is not wealth. It is not power.

Civilisation is consideration—the deliberate act of recognising another person’s humanity when there is nothing to gain.

That Babalakin and Co diary arrives every year as a reminder: It doesn’t cost much to be human. It doesn’t cost much to be kind. It doesn’t cost much to remember.

Yet those small acts are what separate eye service from loyalty, power from friendship, and society from civilisation.

I have to admit my huge miscalculation on race relations. In 2009 when Obama became the president, I thought that America was on road to racial unity. Boy, was I wrong.

I was a firefighter in Detroit for 34 years. To my surprise (naivety), I started hearing white firefighters around me saying disparaging things about Obama. They somehow seemed to hate him.

Many called Obama the most racially dividing president we've ever had. These were men I'd risked my life with for 20 or 30 years, coming out as racists.

That was the start of our current racial divide, not because Obama separated the races. But, because his skin color separated the races.

Then came Trump, a known racist. He gave racists the ability to stand up and proudly be racist. I saw white firefighters around me embrace Trump and try to tell me how he's done more for Black Americans than any other president.

Today, American racists are as proud as they can possibly be as their president destroys any and everything black. Including his new Obama ape video.

Trump is currently seeking paths to remain in power forever and he must be stopped.

Well, I was definitely wrong about racial unity and today we are on a road to increasing white power (Making America Great Again).

The one good thing that Trump has done is expose the racists we really didn't know about.

I think it's time for Democrats to stop being so docile and to go on the offense. One man should not be allowed to destroy a nation.

Everyone is missing the real story here.

This tweet frames Gates selling Microsoft shares as a mistake. The math says otherwise.

Gates started with 44.9% of Microsoft in 1986. If he’d held every share, sure, he might be worth north of a trillion dollars on paper. But that analysis ignores what actually happened with the money that left Microsoft.

The Gates Foundation has given away over $100 billion. That money funded Gavi, which has saved an estimated 17 million lives. It helped cut annual child mortality from 10 million to 5 million. It nearly eradicated polio. Gates just committed another $200 billion over the next 20 years.

And Buffett? The person this tweet implies gave “bad advice” by recommending diversification? He’s donated $47.9 billion to the Gates Foundation. The advice wasn’t “diversify into index funds for personal wealth preservation.” It was “diversify so you can fund the largest philanthropic operation in human history.”

The counterfactual also ignores market reality. A single person holding 45% of a $3.8 trillion company creates enormous overhang. Every share sale would move markets. The liquidity doesn’t exist to actually realize that wealth. Paper trillions aren’t spendable trillions.

But here’s what this framing really reveals: we’ve optimized for “world’s richest person” as the default success metric. Gates explicitly rejected that game. He’s said he wants to die with less than $100 billion precisely because hoarding wealth while children die of preventable diseases seemed absurd to him.

The question isn’t “what if Gates had held?” The question is “what would we lose if he had?”

The answer is millions of people who are alive today.

Hearing Dr Ron Kenoly has passed away.

This was my childhood right here. At home. In school. At church. His music resonated everywhere. 💔

I hope Heaven brings you the sort of joy you brought us while on earth @DrRonKenoly. Thank you Doc! Rest In Peace. 🕊️❤️
