Barack: You told me all those years ago that you couldn’t promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life. Of course, you outdid yourself and managed to give me both.
Eight years in the crucible, and not once did you melt from the heat. Not once did you let it harden you. Instead, you used it to reveal your truest essence: your stubborn optimism and unflinching courage, your dazzling brilliance and unpretentious decency, your ferocious work ethic and absolutely unshakable moral fiber.
@ParisAeroport, I lost a gold Bvlgari ring at CDG on July 17. It was found by duty-free staff and sent to Lost & Found. I’ve emailed and tried tracing it through “objets trouvés” but haven’t received confirmation. Could someone please assist in locating it or advising next steps?

When you accept your fate and carry your cross, you realize that living becomes much easier. You’re happy to do things that would ordinarily trigger resentment or frustration. Instead, you accept and enjoy the process, which leads to a happier and healthier you.

Do I still need to read or go to school in this AI age? Yes, my dear! Now more than ever. We’re on the edge of a revolution like never before. Growing up, owning a laptop was the flex. Now, it’s just the starting point.

It is one thing to be gingered to read. It’s another thing for the reading to want you. Nothing more frustrating than reading but not understanding the material from its topic to conclusion.

How you respond to feedback can influence your growth - positively or negatively. I have observed a strong correlation between taking feedback personally and career stagnation. Those who take feedback constructively tend to advance further in their careers.

Federal Ministry of Women Affairs set to collaborate with the Royal Consulate of Denmark to advance Women's Welfare, Empowerment, and socio-economic opportunities.
In a bid to enhance the welfare and empowerment of Nigerian women, A short time ago, I hosted a delegation from the Royal Danish Consulate, led by the esteemed Consul General, Ms. Jette Bjerumm.
The meeting focused on fostering collaboration between Nigeria and Denmark in areas crucial to the development and empowerment of women. She applauded the measure plan and showed interest in keying into it. Discussions were centered on initiatives aimed at improving women's access to clean cooking gas, education, healthcare, and capacity building. During the meeting.
Ms. Sanne Chipeta, Sector Counsellor for Food and Agriculture, spoke on how investing rightly in agriculture could enable women to achieve food sufficiency and benefit future generations. She emphasized that Nigeria is a prime focus and expressed the Danish government's readiness to collaborate with the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs.
It was a great pleasure to have the Royal Danish Consulate and their delegation for considering the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs, worthy of collaboration. partnering with them will improve the lives of Nigerian women, focusing on empowerment, the fight against gender-based violence, provision of clean energy, and improved healthcare for women. I believes that this collaboration is a crucial step in uplifting the lives of women and changing the Narratives.
It was a privilege to connect with @MoghaluKingsley as he enlightened the #EUdelegation and member states on Nigeria's economic and political developments, along with recommendations for strengthened collaboration.
His advocacy for market-oriented approaches and reinforcing local government structures was particularly compelling. Additionally, it's a proud moment to share that Prof and I attended the same alma mater, Tufts University, @FletcherSchool where he also taught.

Leadership is tough. Those that aspire to it must really count the cost. Leadership is about accountability and responsibility. There’s the leadership of people and there’s a more demanding job that is “leadership of 🇳🇬”

Consistency is a true benchmark of our goals, often outweighing the outcome itself. Keep striving towards being consistent with your vision and the goals you have set out to achieve in 2024.

Sometimes, the proven assurance that someone will respond to you gives you comfort in speaking to them freely.
