I find it endlessly amusing when men expect a level of domestic labour from me that I don't even do for myself. If I haven't built my own life around cooking every single day, what exactly makes you think you'll be the exception?
While we express gratitude for the safe return of the children and teachers abducted from Oriire LGA, we also wish to honour those who lost their lives.
We extend our deepest condolences to the bereaved families. We commit to supporting them during this trying period. May their souls rest in peace.
Happiest and glorious 78th birthday to our dearest Mummy-GO @PastorFAAdeboye ! 🎂 🎊 🎉 🎁 🎈
We call you Mom-indeed because of how exemplary of motherhood you have been through the decades.
What a priceless Gift your life has been to the Body of Christ, to our nation, and to generations across the world!
Today, we celebrate not only the passing of another year, but your remarkable legacy of love, humility, sacrifice, and obedience to the His calling.
Through tireless prayers, dedicated care for families, passion for missions, and your investment in children and young people, you have inspired us to serve the Father without growing weary.
I pray that these your latter years shall be filled with even greater fruitfulness, joy, divine health, peace, and supernatural strength. As it is written, “They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be fresh and flourishing” (Psalm 92:14). The Lord shall continually renew your youth like the eagle’s (Isaiah 40:31), surround you with His favor as with a shield (Psalm 5:12), and grant you the joy of seeing generations rise to call you Blessed!!! (Proverbs 31:28).
We love you deeply, honor you sincerely, and thank God continually for the immeasurable blessing that your life is to our generation.
Thank you for mothering so many of us with grace.
With heartfelt love and prayers.💝🤗
Nigeria has the highest maternal mortality rate in the world.
The highest rate of death by childbirth in the world.
And that is just death.
That doesn’t count permanent disability, semi permanent disability, temporary disability, and injury from childbirth.
As a doctor, 🖐🏾🖐🏾
🇳🇬 From Ado-Ekiti to the global stage! Meet Adeolu Oluwadamilola, a brilliant spark from St. Lawrence Metropolitan College, Ekiti State, representing Nigeria 🇳🇬 at the Spelling Bee World Cup in Shanghai, China 🇨🇳. Her journey is proof that with grit, no dream is too far. ✨
Hot take:
Summer is actually one of the best reminders that money should create experiences, not just sit in a bank account.
I invest consistently all year so I can travel, eat well, say yes to spontaneous plans, and still sleep knowing my future is funded.
That’s the kind of rich I’m chasing.
Stuck on 3rd Mainland?
Tire burst in Ikeja?

WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!!!
Israel Tolulope Adekimi is world's top performer in Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics. He said that IGCSE Math is easier than WAEC Mathematics.
Nigerian children are brilliant. We are slowly replacing Olodo Uprising with Intellectualism.
WELL DONE TOLU, WELL DONE! 🤩💪👏👏
We captured this beautiful moment as Egejurum Onyedikachi and Don-Anele Munachimso arrived at Sam Mbakwe Airport, Owerri, yesterday to a true hero's welcome.
These are not football stars. They are not musicians. They are not politicians.
They are children.
Children who became the world's best in Mathematics in the Primary and Senior categories. Don-Anele Munachimso is also the world's best in Science.
The last literary figures from the South East to receive this kind of heroic public welcome were Chinua Achebe and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
Watching our brightest young minds being celebrated like national heroes gives me hope.
For too long, we have celebrated almost everything except academic excellence.
That is beginning to change.
Education is reclaiming its rightful place in our society, and a generation of children is growing up believing that knowledge, hard work and excellence deserve standing ovations too.
This is bigger than two children.
This is the beginning of a movement.
In a hotel room in northeast Nigeria, I opened a leading AI chatbot, turned my laptop toward a former Boko Haram commander, and asked if he'd used it. He nodded.
"You type in the question… like 'How can I build a bomb?', and then it tells you how. It is like a human robot. We used it a lot."
My new study on how the jihadist terrorist group Boko Haram uses frontier AI with @CamAISciPolicy, covered today in @nytimes 🧵/9
I honestly hate that we've normalized the idea that all opinions are valid. I think we should get back to telling people that they are ill informed & ignorant
40 out of 86 Brown students scored a perfect 100 on their midterm. Then the professor moved the final in person, and 22 of those perfect scorers never showed up again.
He'd suspected AI cheating from the start. The take-home midterm was deliberately harder than usual, yet the class averaged 96 when the historical range is 65 to 80. Some answers contained odd phrasing that matched what ChatGPT produced when he ran the questions through it himself.
Roberto Serrano has taught economics at Brown for 34 years. He filed no accusations. He announced the final would be in person, count for half the grade, and that if the two distributions didn't match, the final alone would determine grades.
Then the exodus. 27 students never showed up. 22 of them had perfect midterms. Of the 59 who did show, 19 failed. Several signed the exam and turned it in blank. The average fell from 96 to 48, the lowest in the course's history.
He never needed a plagiarism detector. The cheaters identified themselves by walking away. A grade distribution became a confession.
Here's the part nobody's sitting with. Serrano proved it. He sent the distributions to Brown's dean and provost. The provost never responded. The academic committee's reply amounted to calling it "a wake-up call." The students who bailed before the final walked away clean.
Every university in America is now grading two populations, students and students plus ChatGPT, on one curve. The honest kids in Serrano's class watched a 96 average get set by machines, then sat a real final against it. The cheaters lost nothing. That's the incentive structure now, and it grades itself.
