Hey everyone. I'm still crowdfunding for my mom's eye surgery. Things are really dire and we've been able to raise 1.2M out of the needed 2.8M Naira. All support is welcome, really nothing is too small. 8106610083 Opay Akinwande Oluwadamilare Remilekun. oncrowdr.com/explore/c/help-…

I went through medical school. That is a lifetime's worth of "something that will kill you". You guys can carry on. I've had enough.
Do something that almost will kill you, at least twice a year. Something that if you fail it will be epic and if you succeed, it will be epic. To hope for opportunity is to leave your life to chance.

If all else fails, we will outlive you. Every dogma mistakes longevity for immortality. Your institutions will crumble. You will become the superstition of a dark age. We will tell our grandchildren about the cancer that you were & history will do the rest. Time is on our side.
Kaduna, thank you for the overwhelming welcome today as we flagged off our APC 2027 Presidential Campaign. Three years ago, you gave me the privilege of serving as your President. Today, you filled this city again, hundreds of thousands of you from across the North, and I felt the warmth of your support. It was good to return with Vice President Kashim Shettima @officialsksm and our wives to a city that carries so much of our nation’s history. I remembered the founding leaders who gathered here before independence and prayed that Almighty Allah grants them forgiveness and eternal peace. Then I spoke to you plainly, because you have heard enough speeches. My opponents talk about hunger and poverty. I asked the crowd today who created these problems. They did. We are the ones working to eradicate them. The subsidy racket, fraudulent invoices and fuel smuggling are firmly behind us, and there is no going back. We confronted what we inherited with courage and political will, and we are building an economy that rewards hard work and creates opportunities for our people. I know the road has been hard. I hear you. Your sacrifices will not be in vain, and I will not rest until the progress we are making is felt in your homes, your businesses and your pockets. Our progressive governors are building roads, hospitals, schools and markets across their states, supported by increased revenues from the reforms we undertook. Salaries are being paid regularly, and development is taking shape. I am proud of what they are delivering for our people. On January 16, 2027, come out with your PVCs and give Vice President Kashim Shettima and me the mandate to finish what we started. Your future is in your hands, and your fingerprints at the ballot will help determine it. Thank you, Governor Uba Sani @ubasanius, for a befitting start to our campaign. Thank you, Kaduna, for standing with us once again. #RenewedHopeInKaduna #TinubuShettima2027 #RenewedHope2.0

This Ebola sounds so clever. Besides identifying countries having elections soon, it turns out it is also a matchmaker.

One of the clearest signs that a country does not truly value its healthcare system is how it treats its health workforce. You cannot underpay them, overwork them, subject them to inhumane conditions, and then restrict their freedom to leave. ENKR
