I find that many women have internalised the idea that it’s a man’s job to ‘lead’ or steer a relationship, so they just wait and wait for him to define it because whenever he chooses to is the right time. They want more but are afraid to ask a simple question or start an honest conversation because they’re hoping he’ll eventually do it.
But you’re an equal participant. Clarity is something you should actively seek, not something you sit and wait on. You have every right to state what you want, ask where things are headed, and leave if the answer isn’t what you’re looking for.
Why even hand someone else that much power over your life? Stop treating yourself like a passenger in your own story. You have agency. Use it.

I can't believe we, as humans, can't all unanimously agree that RAPE IS A TERRIBLE THING to do irrespective of who/how the victim is/was.

Reflections on My 65th Birthday
Today, July 19, 2026, marks my 65th birthday. At sixty-five, birthdays should naturally become moments of deep reflection - moments to look back with gratitude to Almighty God for His abundant graces, examine the journey so far, and ask how the remaining years can be devoted more meaningfully to the service of God and humanity.
Perhaps in countries where basic human needs have largely been met, where institutions function effectively, and where citizens enjoy a greater measure of security and dignity, such attainments may rightly call for elaborate celebrations. In Nigeria, however, our reality compels a different kind of reflection.
Our nation is blessed with enormous human and natural resources, yet millions of our people continue to struggle with challenges that demand our collective attention. We cannot afford to celebrate ourselves excessively while many around us are burdened by poverty, ill health, unemployment, and limited opportunities. Rather, occasions such as this should remind us of our responsibility to contribute towards building a nation where future generations can genuinely celebrate.
This is why I have always seen birthdays not merely as occasions for personal celebration, but as opportunities for sober reflection, thanksgiving, and a renewed commitment to service.
As I reflected today, I came to a simple conclusion: the greatest celebration of life is not what we receive from others, but the lives we can touch positively.
This conviction has guided my approach throughout my years in business, in the corporate world, and as Governor of Anambra State. In each of these roles, I have tried to see every privilege not as a personal entitlement but as an opportunity to improve the lives of others.
Whenever people or institutions sought to celebrate me with expensive gifts or elaborate ceremonies, I encouraged them instead to redirect those resources towards projects that would have a lasting impact. Over the years, this philosophy has resulted in the building of schools, hostel blocks, support to schools, and other facilities that continue to benefit the less privileged. I have always believed that resources meant for personal comfort can often be transformed into instruments of hope for many.
The greatest honour anyone can receive is not found in gifts, ceremonies, or public admiration, but in knowing that one’s life has contributed, however modestly, to making another person’s life better.
Today, therefore, I give thanks to Almighty God for the gift of life and for bringing me to this important milestone of 65 years. I began the day with a Mass of Thanksgiving in Onitsha, thanking God for His grace, protection, guidance, and the countless blessings He has bestowed upon me over the years.
After the Mass, I proceeded to St. Raphael’s Hospital, Umueri, a small rural hospital in Anambra East Local Government Area. In furtherance of my belief that birthdays should be occasions for service rather than self-indulgence, I donated the sum of ₦10 million to support the hospital’s work of providing quality healthcare to the people.
As I was conducted around the hospital and saw patients in their moments of vulnerability, I was reminded again of our shared humanity. Some of those receiving care may not even have the financial means to settle their hospital bills, yet they deserve compassion, dignity, and access to quality healthcare. Their condition was a reminder that leadership, in its truest form, is about caring for people, especially those who cannot repay our kindness.
Hospitals and schools remain two of the greatest investments any society can make. A hospital preserves life; a school shapes the future. Supporting both is, therefore, not just an act of charity - it is an investment in humanity and in the future of our nation.
We have a rape culture in Nigeria!
We have a pedophilic culture in Nigeria!
We have a femicide problem in Nigeria!
We have an intense misogynistic culture in Nigeria!
From me to you,
I hope you are well. 🙏🏿❤️
The interesting thing was that I wanted to make this post a video recording, but as much as I tried, I could not get through the recording, so I’ll just share my thoughts here.
Today makes it 2 months since my Husband, Business Manager and best friend, Michael, was very suddenly and unexpectedly taken from me and truly, from us.
Even though I lost my Dad at quite an early age, nothing ever prepared me for the reality of becoming a young widow. It has been hard. It has been exceedingly difficult.
Some days are good; some days are just painfully indescribable. What do I do with myself? Where do I start from? So many things left undone and unsaid. So many emotions i am unable to put into words.
Through it all, even in times that I had nothing but harsh words and questions that I asked Him and He didn’t immediately respond to me, God keeps finding ways to show me He has me in mind. For this I am grateful and I continue to hold on to Him to keep going on.
I want to express my deepest gratitude to you all for your outpouring of love, your kind words, prayers, thoughtful messages and posts. I do not know how I will ever repay each and everyone of you - but please know that I am truly and sincerely grateful. Family, friends, Michael’s friends, colleagues, Media Houses, blogs, Fans and every single person that has helped me through this period, I pray that the almighty God will help me reward you! You will not experience pain in whatever quantity.

Yours,

From a wife:
My husband loves okra soup, but I don't like okra soup so I don't cook it.
My friend came to spend a night with us one day, and I suggested that she cook okra soup for herself and my husband since they both loved it.
She did. And after dinner, my husband thanked her. He said: " if not for you, I wouldn't eat 'good' food tonight."
He said that to her smiling, and my friend too was there smiling. I responded, what about me who told her to cook it? I expected him to acknowledge my thoughtfulness, after all she won't cook the soup if I did not tell her to.
He said i wasn't the one who cooked it, so no gratitude. All that my friend was there, smiling. I got angry, went to the kitchen and threw the remaining soup away.
My friend saw my reaction and got angry, she left the next morning.
My husband and I settled and I thought the okra soup chapter was closed when we agreed " no more okra" in our house.
Months later, I saw the slime line of okra soup on his singlet, I thought he had bought it outside until I checked his phone and saw that my husband has been sending money to my friend every week, to cook okra soup for him. Every week, he would go to her house to eat.
I feel betrayed and disrespected.
