Victor Osimhen should honestly search his name on social media and listen to Nigerians. Not because we hate him, far from it, but because love sometimes demands truth.

Osimhen is a fantastic footballer. World class. A pride of Nigeria. But greatness is not only about talent, it is also about temperament, maturity, and team spirit. What happened yesterday was unacceptable. In a 4–0 Round of 16 victory, a match that should have been remembered for dominance and unity, one man’s actions shifted the narrative. He asked to be substituted, stopped contesting for the ball, walked straight down the tunnel, and left his teammates behind. That is not passion, that is poor sportsmanship.

And this is not new. He has shown similar behavior with his club coach and even with the national team coach. It keeps happening because we Nigerians are sentimental, we excuse everything because he is Osimhen. But love without accountability breeds indiscipline.

Now let’s talk football, AFCON football, not club reputation.

When it comes to AFCON, Ademola Lookman has been the better performer. Not louder, not more dramatic, just more effective.

Osimhen has attended multiple AFCON tournaments, yet he scored his first AFCON goal only after 10 appearances. Yes, he is Nigeria’s second highest scorer overall, and that deserves respect, but AFCON is not about CVs, it is about impact on the tournament.

Lookman, on the other hand, shows up when it matters. Across the AFCON editions he has played, he has delivered goals, assists, and consistent performances. He scored crucial goals, created chances, tracked back, pressed defenders, and never made the game about himself. While others demand substitutions, Lookman demands responsibility.

That is the difference.

One player draws attention to himself, the other draws attention to the team.

One lets frustration take over, the other lets performance speak.

So let’s stop defending bad behavior in the name of passion. Passion does not abandon teammates. Passion does not hijack a historic win. Passion fights until the final whistle.

Osimhen is a great player, but at AFCON, Lookman has been the better servant of Nigeria. And until we learn to separate talent from attitude, we will keep clapping for individuals while the team pays the price.

Sometimes, the truth must be said, even when it’s uncomfortable.

Friendship is a relationship I hold closely to my heart. I have never been heartbroken in a romantic way, maybe because I never involved myself in one unless it was time to get married, and the person I got involved with, I married. But when it comes to friendship, I have known heartbreak. And from where I stand, I think friendship breakups hurt even more than romantic ones, except marriage.

You see, I don’t take friendship lightly. I commit myself to it fully. I invest, I nurture, I believe in it. Over time, however, I have come to realize that the way I take friendship is not the way others take it. Time and time again, I have watched people betray the trust I placed in them, and because of the values I hold dear, that friendship cannot continue.

Choose Your Friends Wisely
Friendship is not something to enter into casually, because the people in your circle today will be your children’s mentors tomorrow. Whether directly or indirectly, their presence will shape you and those around you. That’s why friendship must be intentional.

If you discover that you are more invested in the friendship than they are, walk away. Friendship should not be one-sided. Some people are only around because of what they can gain, and others stay simply because they know you will always come through for them.

If the effort is not mutual, if the care is not reciprocal, leave.

Let Friendship Be a Choice, Not an Obligation
One of the greatest mistakes we make is allowing friendships to happen to us, instead of choosing them. Choose your friends—don’t let them choose you. Surround yourself with people who share your values, who walk in integrity, who understand the depth of true connection.

Some friendships are beautiful, built on trust and mutual understanding. Others are hollow, existing only because one person keeps giving while the other keeps taking.

Friendship is a gift, but it should never be a burden.

So be intentional, be wise, and above all, know that you deserve a friendship that gives as much as it receives.

I was scrolling through X when I came across a post that stopped me in my tracks.
Someone shared their experience at Chicken Republic. They had been sitting near a family, a couple with their children, happily enjoying their meal. With them was a young girl, likely their house help, carrying their baby.
The parents bought ice cream for their children, laughing as they handed them the sweet treat. But the girl, the one holding their baby, received nothing. No acknowledgement, no consideration, nothing.
The person who shared the story wanted so badly to buy her ice cream, to make her feel seen, to let her know that someone noticed her. But hesitation crept in. Would it cause trouble? Would the family be offended?
And yet, the real question remained: Why should kindness ever feel like trouble?
House helps live in the background of our lives. They cook, they clean, they raise children who are not theirs. And yet, society often treats them as though they deserve less, less kindness, less respect, less dignity.
But not every home is this way.
I heard another story, one that stayed with me.
A man made sure his house help went to the same school as his children. People questioned his decision. Why should she get the same education? Why treat her as an equal? But his reasoning was simple, "If she learns the same thing, she will teach them from the same source."
This wasn’t just a practical choice, it was a choice of dignity. Since the house help was older, she would naturally influence the younger children. She would help them with assignments, correct their mistakes, and shape their thinking. If she were learning in the same environment, the impact would be positive, ensuring that what she passed on was valuable and informed.
And in their home, the difference was clear. If you visited, you wouldn’t even know she was a house help. She was treated as the first child of the family, embraced fully, loved completely.
House helps are not invisible. They are not just workers, they are someone’s child.
A mother somewhere carried that child, prayed for them, dreamed of a bright future for them. Life may have led them to a path of service, but that doesn’t make them less deserving of care, respect, or kindness. Just as we want our own children to be treated with dignity, we should extend the same grace to those who serve in our homes.
What does it cost us to treat them with dignity? To buy them ice cream when we buy for our children? To ensure they receive education, not just so they can serve better, but because they deserve growth too? To treat them, not as shadows in the background, but as people worthy of respect?
Jesus said,
"So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets." —Matthew 7:12
If we believe in kindness, fairness, and humanity, then we must reflect that in our actions.
Because no one deserves to live unseen.
And respect should never be a privilege, it is a right.

I really hate, okay, maybe hate is too strong a word, so let me say, I deeply dislike when newlyweds are just living their joy, doing what new couples do, and some elders drop those casual remarks like:

"Enjoy it while it lasts."

"We’ve all been there."

"Remember, you’re the first to get married."

Excuse me? What kind of encouragement is that?

Instead of saying, "I’m so happy for you," or "Love only gets deeper if you nurture it," you choose to plant seeds of doubt? To smirk like you’re waiting for the "honeymoon phase" to crash? Yes, life happens. Yes, challenges come. But it’s your job as an elder to guide us, not to prophesy our downfall with some tired, jaded nostalgia.

Here’s the truth: Just because you went through struggles doesn’t mean we have to. Isn’t the whole point of experience to make things better for the next generation? If your marriage lost its spark, fight for mine to keep burning. If yours got hard, teach me how to soften the blows. Don’t just sit back, watch, and whisper, "Wait till reality hits."

To every young couple: Marriage is a daily choice. When you wake up, you choose each other, again. You repeat those vows, not just at the altar, but in the way you speak, listen, and hold each other when life gets heavy. Don’t let fear-mongering voices dim your light. There are couples married 50 years who still flirt like teenagers, who still light up saying, "This is my person." That can be you.

And to the unmarried: Marriage is beautiful. Not perfect, not always easy, but beautiful. Don’t let the bitter narratives scare you. Love with your whole heart. Fight for it. And if an elder tries to hand you their baggage instead of wisdom? Smile, nod, and write your own story.

Because some people don’t realise: The best "we’ve been there" should end with "...and here’s how we made it better for you."

I wake up every day carrying a weight that grows heavier with each passing year. It is the weight of disappointment, of anger, of a sadness too deep to name. How did we get here? How did we become a nation where young minds, once filled with dreams and ambitions, are now left stranded with diplomas that mean nothing?

Every year, thousands of students graduate, clutching their certificates with hope in their eyes. But what awaits them? Not the careers they spent years preparing for, not the professional paths they dreamed of. Instead, they are pushed into survival mode. The microbiologist becomes a makeup artist. The engineer turns into a street vendor. The accountant, with distinctions in school, is now operating a Point-of-Sale (POS) machine to make ends meet.

It should make us angry. It should make us restless. And yet, where is our outrage?

While the youth struggle to find meaning in a country that has abandoned them, the politicians thrive. They play their games, shifting alliances, hoarding wealth, making promises that will never be kept. Governance is a forgotten duty—replaced by mindless power struggles and personal enrichment. And when we try to speak, when we dare to challenge the dysfunction, our own peers rise against us. The same youths drowning in poverty defend the very people who stole their futures.

I saw a video recently of a politician’s son living lavishly, flaunting a lifestyle funded by the wealth of a nation in ruins. And instead of outrage, people hailed him. They admired him, envied him. Not once did they stop to ask, where did this wealth come from? What hospitals could have been built with that money? How many jobs could have been created?

Who bewitched us?

Education, once a beacon of hope, is losing its value. Why pursue a degree when no job waits at the end of the tunnel? Why spend years studying when survival demands immediate alternatives? We are unknowingly tearing down the very thing that should uplift us. And the most painful part? The leaders we trusted to fix this mess don’t even care.

It is a betrayal. A betrayal of dreams. A betrayal of sacrifice. A betrayal of an entire generation that deserved better.

And so I ask, my fellow youth, when will we be angry? When will we demand better? When will we stop celebrating the wealth stolen from our future? Because until we do, we will remain trapped, watching as the privileged grow richer while the educated struggle to survive.

The Cycle of Failure: How a Broken System Breeds More Failure

There’s a crushing weight that sits on my chest when I think about it , a weight of anger, disappointment, and disbelief. How did we get here? How did we find ourselves trapped in this vicious cycle where failure is repackaged, renamed, and redistributed to the next generation, ensuring nothing changes?

The education system, our supposed engine of progress, is committing a quiet betrayal. It’s hard to say it any other way when an entire structure is designed to take those who underperform academically and funnel them into the College of Education, a system that at its core is meant to train the very individuals responsible for shaping young minds.

Let’s make this plain. When you tell a student that their low Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) score means they must settle for studying education, that they will now be responsible for instructing future generations, you are essentially setting up a time bomb. You are handing failure a baton and asking it to run another lap. And then another. And another.

Imagine a farmer who repeatedly plants bad seeds in the soil. He knows the seeds are weak, incapable of yielding a strong harvest, yet he sows them anyway. When harvest season comes, the fields produce nothing but withered crops and stunted growth. And what does he do? Instead of seeking out better seeds, richer soil, and refined farming techniques, he simply reuses the same weak crops to plant again. This isn’t farming. It’s negligence.

Yet this is what the education system is doing. It is reinforcing failure, rewarding mediocrity, and ensuring that the next crop of teachers, who will in turn mould young students, come from a pool of those deemed least capable. How, then, can we expect excellence? How can we dream of innovation, brilliance, and success when the very foundation we stand on is crumbling beneath us?

Education is supposed to uplift. It is meant to refine, challenge, and elevate minds to new heights. But when an entire structure takes the students who struggle the most and tells them, "You will be teachers," it creates a cycle where failure breeds more failure, where half-hearted teaching produces half-informed students, who then grow into adults incapable of breaking free from the chains of mediocrity.

The disappointment burns deep. The anger flares without warning. Because the tragedy is avoidable. This system is not some unchangeable law of nature. It is a man-made construct, a poorly thought-out policy that is actively sabotaging generations of potential.

This must end. We must demand better. We must insist that teaching is a profession reserved for those with passion, skill, and brilliance, not treated as a dumping ground for those who didn’t quite cut elsewhere. Because if we do not break this cycle, the next generation will rise, only to fall, just like the last. And the heartbreak will continue, over and over again.

Barcelona 😂

A man will have a beautiful, hardworking woman who genuinely loves him irrespective of his current status, and instead of embracing that love, he’ll start doing everything possible to frustrate her until she gives up.

I met a friend recently and asked about her relationship. I knew them back in the day, they were a solid couple. She said they’re no longer together. I asked why. Her response? The guy said he wasn’t comfortable being in a relationship because he hadn’t gotten his “big break” yet. And then he started acting weird.

Ask around, four out of ten women have had similar experiences.

So what’s really behind this behavior?

A lot of men tie their identity and value to what they can provide. Society teaches us that a man must be the strong one, the provider, the one who’s got it all together. So when a woman comes in and offers support, especially financial or emotional support, it shakes that internal narrative. It feels like failure, even when it’s love. And for men who grew up always giving and rarely receiving, love that gives back can feel suspicious or uncomfortable.

There is also pride. The kind that says, let me get myself together first before I let someone see me vulnerable. And instead of communicating that, some men just pull away or start acting out. Because let’s be honest, vulnerability is scary when you’ve been conditioned to be stoic.

I remember when I was single. My wife, who was just a friend at the time, would gift me things, and I hated it. Not because the gifts were bad, but because I wasn’t used to it. In all my friendships, I was always the giver, and I was okay with that.

She gave me my first surprise birthday cake. You need to see how I reacted. I walked in, saw the setup, picked up my Bible and announced I was going to church. Before you judge me, understand, I wasn't used to that kind of love. In fact, some of the ladies who helped her plan that surprise never gave me anything themselves, yet I used to go all out for them.

She was doing things that weren’t normal to me, and I disliked her for it. She was changing the status quo. How dare she?

Today, married, we compete over who pulls off the best surprises.

Looking back, I realize I was reacting based on what I had known and the people who had shaped my thinking. They had been in my life the longest, so they framed how I processed love and giving. One day, I remembered everything she endured and shouted, Ha, you really suffered o.

Another reason is fear. Fear that she’ll change when he eventually makes it. So rather than deal with that possible future heartbreak, he checks out early. Or he believes she only loves him now because she sees potential, and once the potential becomes reality, she’ll want more than he can give emotionally.

But men need to understand that not every woman is transactional. Some women are nurturers at their core. They love deeply and give freely. The fact that she supports you now is not weakness, it’s strength. And if you push her away, someone else will gladly accept that kind of love.

So to the single guys out there
Yes, there are ladies who won’t grow with a man, but don’t let the trauma of your past push away the good ones who will. There are so many women ready to build with you. Don’t self-sabotage when you find one.
