Prof. Kola Oyewo taught me from 100 Level through 400 Level. He was an exceptional lecturer and also served as my pioneer Head of Department.
What an incredible man. I have so many stories to tell and so many lessons to remember.
Thank you for being an outstanding teacher, mentor, and Father.
Rest well, Pa Kola Oyewo.🕊️ 🤍

Fellow Nigerians
Today, we celebrate democracy and the enduring Nigerian spirit. For 27 unbroken years, since May 29, 1999, Nigerians have chosen their leaders through the ballot, witnessed peaceful transitions of power, and resolved disagreements in courtrooms and legislative chambers—not through violence. We have experienced the longest stretch of civilian rule in our history. Our democracy is not perfect, but it is ours, and we must continue to defend and strengthen it.
Okonkwo to Obi: Suing your ex-spokesperson unwise — I may be forced to divulge confidential information
Kenneth Okonkwo, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), says he may be forced to divulge confidential information if Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), files a lawsuit against him over alleged defamation.
In a series of posts via X, to the lawsuit threat from Obi, Okonkwo said it is “very unwise” for anyone to sue their former spokesperson for defamation.

I will not stand before you and declare the work finished, because it is not. The housing deficit this nation carries is counted in the millions, and it will take years of steady labour to close, and I would rather say that to you plainly than flatter you with a lie.
But the difference now is real. For the first time in a generation, the whole housing value-chain is moving together: the land and its title, the building, the materials, the equipment, the finance, and the family at the end of it, and no part waits idle on another.
Housing has moved from a welfare conversation to a national growth strategy. Real estate and construction now sit among Nigeria’s major GDP contributors, proving that every affordable home financed is also a factory order, a labour contract, a mortgage asset, a household balance sheet and a contribution to national output.
That is what I promised for our housing sector, and that is what is now being delivered. Renewed Hope was never charity. It is the right of every Nigerian to a place called home.
