I was watching the movie “Something the Lord made” and I got moved with emotions. I’ll say why. The movie was based on a true life story of one Vivien Thomas who became the first African American without a doctorate degree to perform open heart surgery on a white patient in the United States and who developed the procedures used to treat...

“Life can either be accepted or changed. If it is not accepted, it must be changed. If it cannot be changed, then it must be accepted.” It was a glorious and beautiful day. I woke up at 5.00am and got ready to go out by 5.30am. Actually, I didn’t sleep deep that night because one sentence kept reverberating in my head through the night Walk for...

  A while ago, I was given an assignment by The Future movement to go and deliver the future in Ekiti state. Funny, isn’t it? Now, my state of origin is Ekiti state. I hail from Ijero town in Ijero-Ekiti Local Government. My grandfather has a house in Ekiti State and though he lived majorly in Lagos and got a chieftaincy title in Mushin, he was taken...

I returned a couple of hours ago from my state of origin. The good old Ekiti-kete. The fountain of knowledge with a lot of excitement. On the one side, it felt good to be in my state of origin again (I’ve been there a total of about 6 times in all); on the other, it felt exciting to be taking responsibility for the outcome of political leadership in the...

With regards to America’s standing as the leader of the free world, it was imperative that most countries that had foreign missions in America would have been represented at the inauguration one way or another. To buttress...

A few minutes ago I saw President Obama (doesn’t it feel good to call him that) escort ex-president George Bush to the “Mobile One” helicopter and went back to the steps of the white house to wave at him as he was flown off the white house premises. That was the activity that culminated the inauguration of the 44th president of the...

I can’t help but post about current happenings on the Nigerian scene as I get wind of them in the news. I try as much as possible to follow major news stories online at www.nigeriaworld.com everyday to at least have an idea on what is happening in this my beloved nation. Many times I have in mind to write on something else but I soon discover that I...
