Politics / What Will You Do Differently If You Happen To Be The President Of Nigeria by olawalepopoola: 10:22am On Oct 19, 2021 |
As a young person and a Nairalander, what will you do differently assuming you are the president of Nigeria. This is a discussion thread. How will you: 1. Develop the economy 2. How will the education sector fare 3. How will you achieve true federalism 4. What tactics will you use to improve the security of the nation 5. How will you reduce rate of unemployment in the country. |
Family / Born Out Of Wedlock! You Can Be Successful As Any Person by olawalepopoola: 4:01pm On Sep 23, 2021 |
As a child born out of wedlock, I grew up with a family that was not mine but took care of my very well. At 19 years my maternal Sister opened up to me that the man I called my father wasn't my father. I confronted him and he confessed to this. He explained that my mother who birthed my two elder siblings in his house, was impregnated by her ex-lover but couldn't allow her to take me along when she packed out. The man really took of me, he paid my bills through primary and secondary school. His extended family never for once used it against me. I go to his hometown every holidays and I can say I know his family more than his own biological children. We share the same bed even though he was remarried. At 20 years my Mother broke the news I had heard a year earlier to me. All I did was smile and accepted her apologies. Many believed it was a case I was supposed to fight till the last. I looked at them and told them I wasn't the one that drafted my destiny. The who allowed it will give me the grace to go through. This was when I got admission into the University. Both the man and woman began to make claims. At this time, I encouraged myself in the Lord and I told myself I will become successful in life no matter the conditions surrounding my birth. I decided to do all I could to graduate with best grade in my undergraduate studies. At the end of the first semester of my first year in the University, my mother took me to my original father and I began to link up with his extended family although till date I never had any personal relationships with his children. His family already knew about my existence since my birth. I forgave every parties in the show and I moved with life. One of my paternal uncle told me I will be so lucky to get a plastic chair, if my father eventually dies. This statement made me more absolute for success. My father is a very successful man in his own right and my mother too. There and then I decided never to depend on my parents properties. There was no time I visited him that he responded to me in a very good manner. He sees me as a shit. Hatred began to set in but God gave me the grace to stop it. I graduated with a Second Class Upper Division in Applied Geology and among the top in my class. I served in one of the Northern States and became the best serving corp member of my batch. However, this journey didn't go well smoothly. There spiritual wars God won for me. The legit wife of my father had made a confession that I will never succeed as long as she is alive. I told God not to kill her because she must see part of my success before she dies. After service year, I had to come to the South, I searched for job for six months. During my undergraduate days, God had revealed to me my career path. On a fateful day a destiny helper located and I got a job in a private University in Southwest Nigeria as a Technologist. As a Technologist I published 8 research papers. I enrolled for my M.Sc. in Applied Geology in a nearby University and bagged it some years later. I was converted to an Assistant Lecturer. I told myself I will not rest on my oars, I applied for a PhD in Geology in a public University in Southwest Nigeria where I spent 4.5 years for the program after being delayed by COVID-19 pandemic. A feat that had not been previously recorded by the Department. As at the day of my oral defense, 8 papers published in SCI journals had been published (those in the academics will understand this very well). I have as of today 25 published papers with 10 conference proceedings with google citations of 151and HI index of 8. Within this period I got my married to my loving wife and are blessed with children. I called my biological father to inform that I defended my PhD. He replied via SMS that he was proud to be my FATHER!. Infact success is important. NEVER USE THE CONDITION OF YOUR BIRTH TO DETERMINE YOUR SUCCESS. GOD DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE. EVEN IF YOU ARE "A BASTARD, BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK, HE WANTS YOUR SUCCESS" I APPRECIATE GOD FOR ALL I HAVE ACHIEVED SO FAR AND WHERE HE IS TAKING ME TOO. HE DESERVES ALL THE ACCOLADES IN MY LIFE. #TRUELIFESTORY 4 Likes |
Family / Re: People Never Accept They Have A Bad Mother by olawalepopoola: 3:02pm On Sep 23, 2021 |
Many mothers are toxic and over protective. My mum tried all she could to break into my marriage and destroy by using even my siblings and father against me. I stood firm and told them I would rather stand with my nuclear family than them. Today I have put her in her position and we seldomly communicate again. Mothers must be ready to let go of their kids, they can stay with you forever. They have to find the path of their own destinies. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Politics / Igbo Language As A Compulsory Gst Course by olawalepopoola: 9:29pm On Sep 13, 2021 |
What is your take on this? The Alex Ekueme University, Ebonyi State has made Igbo Language as a compulsory GST course that must be passed before graduating. It takes effect from the 2021/2022 academic session. To me it is the best decision the Senate of the University had taken in the light of diminishing interests in Nigerian languages by kids and youth of nowadays. 4 Likes

I am Yoruba and I married a Yoruba. My male children can marry from any tribe as long as they are bringing in the choice of God for them and adding more children-in-law to my family. All I want for my kids is a marital bliss. My daughters can marry other tribes too, if the aforementioned is achieved. However my daughter MUST teach her children how to speak Yoruba. That is so important. Marriage is not about tribe, it is have happiness till the end. Inter-marriage isn't new in Yoruba land.

No matter how we twist history, the truth will always prevail. Recent crowning of the Only of Warri says it all. The Itsekiris wanted to deny the new King his ancestral throne and right because his mother is Yoruba. The Yoruba monarch including the Balogun of Ibadanland and representative of the Ooni were at the meeting where they wanted to make a final declaration to discredit the new Olu of Warri. At the meeting the Yoruba monarch stated categorically that Itsekiris are Yorubas and nothing can change that. All the elders of Itsekiri present couldn't raise a voice against that. That was how the new Olu of Warri was crowned. IT IS HIGH WE BEGIN TO TEACH HISTORY IN OUR PRIMARY SCHOOLS. SO IMPORTANT 5 Likes |
