Dear Youth;
Today let's talk about 'avoiding unnecessary pressure especially this festive season "
While you deserve every good things life has to offer, you don't have to be pressured at any point into doing things you ought not to do, especially to acquire material things!!!
The kind of things we read about, and see people do these days to make money, especially our youth!!!
Scary!!!!
Why?
How do you explain a secondary school student trying to do ritual to make money???
What's he doing with the money at that age??
Ritual????
Whoever told you that nonsense works???
Like how??
See eh, an apple can NEVER fall from a palm tree 🌴
NEVER!!!
Life is a process.
Life is a journey.
You must definitely put in the hard work.
No two ways about that!
While it may happen for some at an earlier stage, it may also happen to some at later stage.
Let nothing or no-one ever pressure you to do things that will ruin your life.
Don't also pressure yourself to do things you will regret forever!
Avoid crime at all costs!!
You do the crime, you do the time!!
While you work and pray, be focused with eyes 👀 on the ball; always!!!
He who works, wins!!!
Have an amazing December!

Dear Youth!
Today let's talk about "managing humans"
I mean, managing human beings is one of the most difficult tasks in life, as all of us are uniquely made.
While some people's understanding may be flexible, some are way too rigid that u don't even know where to start managing them!
But patience, wisdom, understanding, and love for all will stand you out if you choose to manage humans.
Every human is specially made for special purposes, and every human bring something on the table.
They may be 'off' most times, but they still add value if well managed.
As difficult as some people may be, accomodating them sometimes yield positive results as they tend to change with time!
Love is the greatest weapon here.
Like I always say, people are going through a lot!
But love heals.
As much as you can, be the positive vibe and plug 🔌 they need, and show love as much as you can....the world will definitely be a better place!
Have a blessed week 🙏

A BETTER AND GREATER NIGERIA IS POSSIBLE WITH YOUTH AND I

THE IS THAT SOME DON'T ACTUALLY KNOW WERE THEY ARE GOING
How this world will be when people finally makes their priority.

Help the needy,stay in peace, see reasons that every one is important,work in harmony,zero maginalization, this world will become a new heaven.

You pray to be rich,but sees nothing good about the rich people.

you are very poor,after u seek for help,when you finally succeeds,people around u becomes enemies,when the person that helped u falls u will be the first to broadcast it.

You blame politicians,calling them all sort of names,sayin if you are to be in there shoes u will do better,later,a little position entrusted in ur hand,people around you becomes a prey.

You wake up in the morning pray for family progress,yet you are praying for your neighbour to die

your son is doing very well academically you are happy,but always sad to hear other peoples good news.

our leaders are no doing well the whole nation cursing them,
when last did you pray for them

you hear sounds of killing in a particular region of the country
and you are always on social media commenting the culprits

you are a man of God, God is using you according to your own grace and calling
but always sad to hear a fellow man of God perform miracle
we are heavenly candidates

you are a Christian always on evangelism preaching and converting souls yet you don't allow people correct you
i have been praying for a child for the past 10years,yet the maid/he girl you brought from the village lacks care,love,good meal.
Do you think God is a fool?

You sit back praying for other peoples failure and downfall yet you have nt seen three square meal for your self let alone your family

you keep saying why me,why this happening to me,when you don't care about how other people feel

when some one helps you people says he has evil intention but wen he/she quits you conclude tracing wickedness to his generation

the real truth is many don't actually know were they are going

When I was 10 years old, there was a girl in my class who I was quite certain at the time that I could give my life. So I wrote her a lovely poem over a weekend; I wrote the poem on Friday and finished it on Saturday. And it was, if I may say so myself, a work of sheer genius. It ended with the dramatic words; "your warm embrace may be the last desire of my heart before I die!"

I tucked it in my school bag and looked forward with a heart filled with love for Monday, to present to the object of my affections.

My mum, while cleaning out the bag, found the letter, and all hell broke loose. Needless to say, she beat the poetic genius out of me that terrible afternoon.

But that’s not the end of the story. True love as you know, will survive even the worst brutality. So, I bore my injuries as a worthy suffering for my beloved. On Monday morning, I found the best opportunity to give her a freshly written version of the poem. I turned away as she took the letter, I didn’t want to behold the sheer pleasure as she read it, but as I turned around, I noticed that she had actually handed the poem over to the teacher and she was pointing at me!

While my physical bruises have healed from that experience, from as you can imagine, what happened with the teacher, my capacity for writing romantic poetry had been greatly diminished.

Fantastical Futures is the audaciously inspirational theme of this iteration of the Ake Arts & Book Festival. Why do we in today’s world, dare to hope for a future so fantastic that it is described as fantastical? The reason it is, if I may offer one, is that there is for those who have cast this great vision; Lola, her friends and collaborators, they’ve have not allowed their vision to be beclouded by the cataracts of discouragement that so easily beset us. Two of those cataracts to our vision are worthy of mention.

The first is a disdain for introspection, which has just come over time, that capacity for deep thought, and making that the basis of planning and action. It is a disdain for introspection that causes our elite to spend or embezzle all the cash and opportunities of the present and make it the burden of a leaner future to pay for our corruption and carelessness.

A failure to interrogate the past, coupled with a reluctance to explain the benefit of deferring gratification. Is the creative sometimes, unable to stick to a cause because it may no longer be popular?

Niyi Osundare, the poet I’m sure we’re all familiar with, captures this elite inability to defer gratification in the provocative poem titled “Eating Tomorrow’s Yam”.

And I quote a portion of it, he said: “There is only one left in the village barn, the prodigal calls for a knife ‘what shall we eat tomorrow’, the people ask, ‘if we finish all the yam today just how shall we feel when the dunghill has relieved stomachs of their improvident burden? And says the prodigal: ‘tomorrow will take care of itself, how can we know the next day if we die of hunger today?”

The recursive one step forward two steps backwards of our histories, especially in Africa, has caused Prof. Tanure Ojaide, and I’m sure you’re all familiar with him as well, in his angry style, to ask “What poets do our leaders read?”

Again, Tanure Ojaide in his poem, “No longer our country”, remonstrates, and I quote him; “We have lost it, a country we were born into, we can now sing dirges of the commonwealth only of yesterday. We have a country that is no longer our own.”

But even he, that is Ojaide, will agree that men and women, not spirits build societies. Which leads me to the second cataract that blurs our vision. Imagine the failure to recognize the responsibility of the individual, especially the gifted individual.

Does the artist have a responsibility to society beyond that of the ordinary citizen? Is there a civic tax payable on talent? Does the fact of your genius place upon you, a moral burden to attempt to use the powerful voice of your art to fight for the soul of the land, especially to fight for the soul of the land from whence you came?

To take moral positions, are you by virtue of your intellect and creativity a moral agent? Or are you not? Can you or not be neutral? Can you be politically neutral? Can you in the face of so much that needs to be done, poverty, deprivation, and injustice, stay politically neutral? Can Africa afford to have its best talents wearing halos of political innocence and saying “let us leave politics to the scoundrels?”

There is a growing impatience of the deprived millions of our people with the elite, which includes all of us in this room; the bombs tied to the 11-year-old body of Safiaru a malnourished girl, who has never been to school, cannot distinguish between a lawyer like Yemi Osinbajo or a writer like Molara Wood. The bomb does not discriminate!

Two things

Earlier this year, the government established the Technology and Creativity Sector Working Group: a policy committee of Federal Government Ministers and Heads of Agencies with Creatives, Tech and Entertainment business owners.

The group meets to work on policy, including rules and regulations regularly. So, we do have now, a policy group, who takes into account the sorts of views that Creatives may want especially in formulating policy and that is so for persons of technology as well. So, I think there is plenty of room for expression, especially the way we want to see policies shaped that could affect our Creatives and could affect those involved in technology.

The last thing, did you enjoy the story I told earlier? It was fiction. I wish us all a fantastical future!

Hope is a Nigerian cos I have met her

Hope is a Nigerian when she endures the pains caused by our politicians

About 6 million of our children attend public schools yet no comfortable sitting material

about 40millions of our graduates come out successfully in universities in the country yet no job to boost their effort

hope is a Nigerian when a senate earns 36million naira monthly yet some can't boost of three square meal daily

hope is a Nigerian when our politicians seek medical care abroad yet citizens are left with no drugs unless payment is made.

Hope is a Nigerian where ethnicity, tribe, and religion have torn our unity apart, yet we say we are the giant of Africa

hope is a Nigerian when she endures the pains caused by our leaders and still dimes it fit to smile

Hope is a Nigerian when agitation has been trending news due to marginalization
of some parts of the country yet we clamor for unity

hope will be a Nigerian when we put away region, ethnicity, and godfatherism, and still looks forward to achieving a common goal in one nation if only that will be done

Hope is a Nigerian because a new Nigeria of our dream is coming in a high tendency that will shake the world, and the youths will beat their chest and say we made it happen.

Hope is a Nigerian cos God has heard our cry and it's time to take what belongs to us all.

I say there is hope cos if we lose this nation again, we will lose ourselves.
this is not a poem
It's a poem about brothers, sisters, love, unity about strife.

speak hope.
