As I reflect on personal and professional challenges, I remember how important "The Head" is.  Tracing our journey from that single sperm cell to where we are today. You will see that you have come far. You are not a failure. You are a survivor. You are not competing in life. The rest of your life is the best of your life and the best is yet to come. As I pondered on the importance of "The Head," there is a story between the Farmer and the Hunter which I will explain with this rime. Bi ori ba da rokoroko l'aamu, Yio da bii pe ko le roko t'egbe re Ika kii fe k'ar reru k'a so Bi ori ba nda sodesode l'aamu Yio da bii pe ko lee p'eran t'egbe re Atari l'alayanmo, ori l'elejo Ko s'sosa tii -ba 'nii -ja l'ehin ori eni Ori eni nii wipe k'o ye ni Meaning....... If a farmer's head is against him, It will appear as if he cannot work like his colleagues. The wicked don't want one to unburden his burden. If ...

Politics of Development is not just by mouth but by Action. I remembered my late grandpa, Baba Francis Falade Fayemi (FFF), a respected leader in the community, who would spend hours sitting in the garage, earnestly listening to the concerns and stories of the townspeople. The image of my grandfather's unwavering dedication and availability struck a chord within me. From that moment on, I made a decision. I understood that being available and genuinely listening to the people was not merely something he was asked to do; it was something he was told to do. It became clear to him that this was the first, best, and sometimes the only way to build meaningful relationships and engage with the community. While growing up, I love visiting my hometown because this is an avenue to meet with my grandpa and learn from his well of experience. I grew up knowing that "Leadership is service." When I started going back to the grassroots soliciting for votes and me...

When I started as a Scientific Officer at Federal Teaching Hospital, Ido Ekiti (FETHI), I knew I had to make a significant impact. So, instead of diving headfirst into my tasks, I took a step back and observed the intricate dynamics that shaped the Information and Corporate Affairs Department. I immersed myself in understanding my colleagues, the leadership dynamics, and the hidden power structures that influenced decision-making. I carefully observed the written and unwritten rules that governed our workplace. It was this deep understanding that allowed me to create a transformational change within the hospital. Utilizing my expertise in digital communications and content creation, I recognized the immense potential of social media in enhancing our organization's presence. With strategic precision, I revamped the hospital's social media platforms, crafting compelling content that resonated with our target audience. The results were astonishing - an exponential incr...

As I gazed at the throwback pictures from the V-connect program, a rush of gratitude and nostalgia washed over me. It was in that very moment that I realized the profound impact that experience had on my life's trajectory. The program organized by V-connect was not just a gathering; it was a transformative journey into the world of digital tools and SEO. It was there that I unearthed the hidden power of these tools, knowledge that has since become an invaluable asset in my personal and professional growth. But it wasn't just about the skills learned; it was about the people I met along the way. The incredible individuals who shared their wisdom, passion, and drive with me during those days have now become shining stars in their respective fields. The connections forged during that time were not just networking opportunities; they were priceless bonds that continue to inspire and support me today. I owe a huge shoutout to Essentro Classics Furniture for c...

One day, I received an intriguing message from an anonymous sender. The message asked me to create a list of people in my life and circle my top three. Curiosity piqued, I grabbed a pen and paper and began scribbling down the names of my close family and friends. As I circled my top three, I couldn't help but wonder what this mysterious message was all about. Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months, but I couldn't forget about the enigmatic request. I found myself continually evaluating my list, questioning my choices, and contemplating what it all meant. Who were the people who would pray for me without being asked? Who would care for me without any expectations? And who would correct me without judging? Driven by a deep desire to find answers, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery. I reached out to my loved ones, engaging in heartfelt conversations and meaningful connections. As I shared my hopes, dreams, and fears, I began to uncover the true ess...

Today, good appears as evil, and evil is celebrated as good. There seems to be no room for dialogue. People shout at and insult each other without any understanding of what the other’s issues are. Truth is nowhere to be found in many of these conversations. Frankly, I could go on listing our world’s present shortcomings. However, that may do little to encourage improvement or inspire hope. Many injustices still plague our world. Poverty amid surplus, religious intolerance, racism, gender discrimination, and many more. The need for change cannot be overstated.  In many communities across the globe, people are crying out for a transformation from the current world order. Therefore, the question remains, “Do we turn away and give up in our quest for justice, peace, truth, and a better world?”  The answer for me is a resounding NO! We must recognize that until we challenge our world’s problems, we will continue to live in fear, lack, and anger. Eleanor Roosevelt once s...
