For those of us watching from a distance, in safer cities, behind screens, far from the smoke, it’s easy to feel helpless. Remember that this Ummah has Allah. Take a moment during these holy days to break away from the news and raise your hands to call upon Him.
May He strengthen the steadfast and bring justice and peace wherever there is oppression. May He unite and protect the Ummah across the globe.
In these trying times of insecurity in Nigeria, we pray to Allah for peace, security and healing.
May He protect every home and guide our leaders right.
As we hold onto hope, we look forward to a gathering of purpose.

With all these SA, Rape, Genocide, killing, kidnapping cases that's everywhere.
My heart is just paining me😭😭
Subhanallah.
May Allah's wrath be on the perpetrators of these evil acts, and everyone who enables them!!!!
End child marraige!
Stop saying “Our wife” to a child!
Stop kissing and touching a child inappropriately ontop of play!
Stop telling the parents of children I will marry your daughter.
You are a weirdo!
Leave children alone!

I’m sorry but the MSSN lagos I know ooo.
I can’t speak for other states.
We capitalize on HUMAN DEVELOPMENT.
that “marry inside poverty to avoid Zina” thingy is not from us oo.
MSSN personalities in LAGOS are respected intellectual personalities.
This is an opportunity to share the joy and pain felt during my Visit to an Eastern state in Nigeria.
I left Lagos to fulfil a required scheme as a youth of my nation unknowning to me my life was about to change.
While I expected my daily travel activities to be of triangle shape (Explore, indoor and trade) I ended up creating a star shaped schedule (explore, trade, learn, meet teenagers, teach and commect).
I had the opportunity to organize a learning session for over 1000 teenagers in remote villages, of the state far from the city. The goal was to bring recent educational resources and a sense of connection to communities with limited access.
The journey was as beautiful as the destination. Alongside my studentI, I often visited several natural landscapes, and it was a powerful reminder of how much there is to appreciate in the world. But the most rewarding part was meeting the teenagers. Their eagerness to learn was inspiring and limited access to resources was unsatisfactory to me. We discussed what careers there were aware of and I shared from my experience of emerging technology and web3 with them and the sessions were filled with laughter, curiosity, and a shared sense of hope.
We the elderly teenagers around eventually teamed up to create a community for the teenagers to express their creativity through their interests, we had products in Art, Agriculture and of course computer from them.
Connecting with these young minds and seeing the impact of our efforts was a profound experience. It taught me that while technology can bridge distances, human connection is what truly drives change plus the documentation (printed) knowledge goes a long way in contributing to the awareness and liberation of this teenagers' mind into a world where they become contributors.
This travel experience was a testament to the power of coming together to create a positive ripple effect. It's a reminder that even the smallest action can lead to a significant impact.
Below are a few of the images generated during some sessions.
The best way to gather the teenagers in volume is through the school authorities, so we visited several schools to achieve the goal of putting them in the know about Defi and the world of Blockchain.
"Life isn't a bed of roses"
But what if it is, just not in full bloom yet?
I reimagined this classic saying in my latest reflection.
