In 2011 I skipped school to perform in Ibadan. Asa, Peju, B Red and Sina picked me up from Babcock and we drove to join the Lynxxx and Friends Tour. I had no idea it was going to air on Soundcity, and when my pops saw it I got in so much trouble.
14 years later, we destroyed the stadium. The 5ive Alive run across Nigeria has been one for the books.
To my peers let’s build back home and give back to our roots.
Big love to all our sponsors for backing this historic tour.
Abuja and Lagos up next, but next stop is ATL for my birthday, State Farm Arena on November 20th!

He and his wife misled and trafficked a young man to the UK to harvest his kidney without proper consent or medical justification and they were caught and convicted. This is the criminal a criminal president is spending time and state resources trying to free.
I schooled in Kaduna Polytechnic, Tudun Wada.
KadPoly is the biggest Polytechnic in West Africa.
There are about 50 mosques in KadPoly but just one Chapel for Christians. Even inside hostels, there are mosques.
The Christian Community begged the school authority to give them just a plot of land to build a Chapel with their own money, the school blatantly said NO.
FCS, NFCS, and NIFES share one Church, and they are always having misunderstanding because one fellowship stays beyond thier allocated time.
The like of RCF, WCF, DCF, and co, use classrooms for services, and the school authorities always caution them to stop it.
I also schooled in BUK (Bayero University, Kano).
BUK and ABU Zaria, are the two biggest schools in the North, if not in Nigeria.
There are more than 100 mosques in BUK but no single chapel as at when I was in the school.
Christian Students pray outside—even in the rain. Classes are prohibited.
I once asked "Why?" and I was told that the then Emir of Kano said that not even the president (GoodLuck Jonathan) can lay a block in BUK in the name of building a chapel.
In many departmental fellowships, students always turned down the position of fellowship presidents, secretary and other positions that put them in limelight because some lecturers who are extremists in their religion could fail them.
Many departmental presidents stayed two to three extra years in school, not because they legitimately got carryover in their courses but because they are presidents.
There's one St. Augustine Catholic Church behind Ajegunle Hostel in Tudun Wada. It is the only "stubborn" Church in the heart of Tudun Wada and it is always burnt at every given opportunity by extremists. Many of their priests and members have paid the ultimate prize because they refused to relocate the Church.
Reverend Father Borogo Vitues, the then chaplain in KadPoly was recently kidnapped and k!lled by Fulani herdsmen.
The Church in the North is being persecuted, suppressed and suffocated.
It is strategically planned by elites and meticulously carried out.
We don't enter churches here in the North without being searched thoroughly because of su!c!de bombers.
Oh, Southern Churches, I'm happy for your freedom and liberty to serve God without fear of "we may not go out of this church alive."
Christmas is approaching, at least one or two Churches in the North will be bombed by terror!sts.
There's Christian Genocide in Nigeria. It is not CLAMOURING as many people assumed.
But Esther, Listen to this, because you are in the palace does not mean you are safe. If you don't fight for your brethren being slaughtered outside now, soon, it will get to the PALACE, and it'll be your turn.
Just as @SpiricocoNg said, you are not safe or special. You are on the menu. It's only not your turn yet.
Yoruba’s culture of respect is one of the most useless aspect of our culture!!!
Respect should be about the truth, not just about the age(power).
We don’t call Yoruba elders fool enough!!!!
The way I prepare for questions for my interviews 😅
My goal is to task the interviewer’s mind so they know that the question stemmed from deep research and intellect.
So I don’t ask generic ‘what do you expect from a candidate’ ‘what are your goals as an organization’. Nop.
Especially if it’s the CEOs interview or senior management.
I will start by giving a background into what birthed my question. Talk about a particular transaction or initiative I saw online. And then speak on a counterparty risk or possible strategic concern that could have come up in the course of the transaction and how they handled it.
See, that’s my best part of interview because you sef go think 😂😂😂
The one I asked in my last interview had the CEO speaking for about 10 mins. I say good. I don interview the interviewer 😂
I could tell he was impressed by the depth of the question.
It’s usually my sign-off such that even if I didn’t do well in the interview, as I go, the last thing you’d use to remember me is that brilliant question I asked. Works all the time.
