FATHERHOOD: MORE THAN A TITLE — IT’S A LIFELONG RESPONSIBILITY


Dear Men,
Being a father is not just about biology — it’s about responsibility. Anyone can father a child, but it takes commitment, sacrifice, and intentional presence to truly be a Dad.

Here’s what responsible fatherhood really looks like:

1. Fatherhood Is Not Fertility

Getting a woman pregnant is fertility. Fatherhood begins when you step into the responsibility of raising, loving, and guiding that child. Being a sperm donor is biology — being a father is purpose.

2. You’re Your Son’s First Hero & Your Daughter’s First Love

The way you show up in your child's life will shape their confidence, identity, and how they relate with others. Be present, intentional, and nurturing.

3. A Father Is a Protector

Children feel safer when Dad is around. Your presence builds security. Your voice brings comfort. Your discipline gives direction. Don’t be absent — be involved.

4. Fatherhood Is Sacrifice

It means saying no to some things so you can say yes to your children. Sacrificing personal pleasure, ego, and sometimes comfort — for your children’s future.

5. Fatherhood Is Service, Not Privilege

True fatherhood means:

Loving unconditionally

Providing diligently

Disciplining wisely

Guiding spiritually

Being emotionally available

6. Time Is the Currency of Fatherhood

Money is great. Gifts are lovely. But your time is the most valuable gift you can give. Kids spell love as T-I-M-E.

7. Irresponsible Fatherhood Damages Generations

Many of the problems in society — addiction, cr!me, emotional instability — often stem from fathers who were absent, passive, or abus!ve. Your role matters more than you think.

8. Be a Teacher and Value-Giver

Instill godly values. Teach integrity, respect, and hard work. Model love in your home. Your children are watching and learning from you.

9. Raise Them in the Way of the Lord

Scripture says, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22:6)

Let Christ be the foundation of your parenting.

10. Fatherhood Is Legacy

Your impact should outlive you — through your children, your wisdom, your values, and the love you planted in their hearts. This is the greatest joy of all.

A Prayer for Fathers:

May God help us not to fail in our fatherly calling. May our children rise and call us blessed. May our homes be full of joy and peace.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Fathers, You Are Heroes
Your role is divine. Your presence is powerful. Your love is life-changing.

Let’s raise kings and queens for the Kingdom.

You will not fail in marriage in Jesus name

Kindly share this message with your loved ones

Nick Vujicic was born into a life most would see as impossible. No arms. No legs. Just obstacles everywhere. Even his parents struggled to accept him.
By age 10, he felt like a burden and nearly gave up completely — even attempting suicide.
But at his lowest moment, Nick had a revelation: his life still had meaning. His presence still had value.
From that moment, Nick chose not to be a victim but a victor.
He failed, tried again, fell, and kept rising.
He discovered a powerful truth: "Obstacles are opportunities in disguise."
Today, Nick is a global motivational speaker, an entrepreneur, a husband, and a father of four.
He’s physically active, full of joy, and impacting millions.
His organization, Attitude is Altitude, is inspiring young people to build resilience and emotional strength.
Nick teaches us this:
Your limitations do not define your destiny.
Pain is not the end — it's often the beginning of purpose.
Action, not excuses, turns setbacks into stepping stones.
So, no matter what you're facing — don’t wait for ideal conditions. Use what you have. Start where you are. Rise. Speak. Act. Win.
Like Nick, you already have what you need inside you.
Now it’s time to live like it.

A blessed evening to you all family, how is your Sunday?

Kperogi Tenders Public Apology To Former First Lady Aisha Buhari Over His Facebook Post.

Prominent Nigerian academician and columnist, Farooq Kperogi, has tendered an unreserved apology to former First Lady Mrs. Aisha Buhari over a controversial Facebook post he made on July 16, which he now admits caused her significant distress.

The post, titled “Aisha Buhari, Divorce, and Forgiveness Claim,” generated widespread reactions after it suggested a strain in the late President Muhammadu Buhari’s marriage to Aisha Buhari—a claim Kperogi now concedes should never have been made public.

In a remorseful statement, Kperogi described the post as “one of the worst and cruelest lapses of judgment” in his life, admitting it has brought him “unfathomable personal anguish” in recent days.

“Although I absolutely should have foreseen it, I honestly didn’t anticipate the profoundly painful consequences my update would have on Mrs. Aisha Buhari and people closest to her,” he wrote.

While Kperogi maintained that his source for the information remains credible, he accepted full responsibility for making it public, admitting that “not every well-sourced information is for public consumption.”

The former Special Adviser to the First Lady on Public Affairs, Alhaji Sani Zorro, reportedly reached out to Kperogi to question the accuracy of the claims and to affirm on Mrs. Buhari’s behalf that her marriage remained intact until President Buhari’s death.

“I will not contest the particulars and veracity of the information with Alhaji Sani,” Kperogi said. “After all, as the late MKO Abiola memorably said, no one can give you a haircut in your absence.”

He emphasized that Mrs. Buhari reserves the sole right to define and speak to the status of her marriage. “Her truth should be respected as supreme,” he added.

While noting that he had no malicious intent or external influence, Kperogi said he now recognizes that the impact of his disclosure far outweighed its factual basis.

“To Mrs. Aisha Buhari, I offer my heartfelt and unreserved apology for the needless and deeply regrettable hurt I have caused. I am truly sorry,” he concluded.

THE COVENANT I ASKED MY WIFE TO SIGN BEFORE WE GOT MARRIED

WHERE THE LOVE OF GOD WILL TAKE YOU, NO CONNECTION ON EARTH CAN GET YOU THERE

- Bishop David Oyedepo

Bishop Oyedepo during his message at the Covenant Day Of Marital Breakthrough spoke at length about having a heart for God using the impact his heart for God has had on his life as an illustration. He gave details of the 'Sailing Under Sealed Order' covenant he signed with God in 1976, "If you check the content of my covenant with God in 1976, I said "Henceforth, I turn my back on everything. They are no longer mine but yours. Church Gist. By that time, You should call me to renounce the things I have deprived myself of, I will not ask a question. I told my wife, this is my stand for Jesus. We were not married then, so I asked her "Are you willing to go with this madness? This is the way I will live my life. I have already entered a covenant, my signature is here. It is your own I am waiting for." She signed. I have the signed original paper. You know I keep things. Signed 12th September 1976. That was when she signed, I wrote that thing the day I caught it. See what a heart for God has done in my little life."

He further shared "We flew into a country without a VISA. They called the Tower and they said there was no record of any VISA here. They asked who was on board, they said it was me. They asked us to wait a minute and then they said, "Okay, on personal recommendation you can land." Do I know them? No! Do they know me? Maybe they do. Church Gist. We spent four nights in that place doing the will of God. Where the love of God will take you, no connection on earth can get you there. I have not seen anything of value added to my life through any connection till date but Jesus. He is more than enough. He is enough for me. The Man of Galilee is enough for me."

He finally said he will not be tired of his passion for Kingdom advancement, "When will this man be tired of Matthew 6:33. I won't be tired oh. I am in a covenant with Jesus on it. I have been driving that since He showed me in 1976. When did you start that you are already tired? There is a minister today that I led to Christ in 1972. There is no limit to the future of a genuine lover of Jesus. There is no limit! I have never begged. You know in ministry, they depend on relationships. I don't have any relationships. You call somebody: 'Hello, how are you? I hope you are fine?' why? You want something from them. It is when you are sick, I weigh in. Satan get your hand off this man and yet I don't lack. How are you doing it? Ask God how He is doing it."

When people die, we say: “Do not speak ill of the dead.”

But today, I ask one question: what of the living the dead ruined?

What of the lives they shattered?

The voices they silenced?

The dreams they wasted?

What if the dead ruled with cruelty and departed, leaving a trail of victims too damaged to ever recover?

What if their legacy is the reason some died untimely, violently, and unnecessarily in the first place?

Muhammadu Buhari is gone.

And once again, a bleeding nation is being asked to perform its most dangerous ritual: FORGET!

But I remember.

I remember citizens waving flags and singing the anthem
gunned down at Lekki Tollgate by soldiers, under his government that saw a demand for dignity as defiance.

The streetlights went off.
The cameras looked away.
The bullets rained down mercilessly on unarmed citizens!

He was Commander-in-Chief!

Families are still grieving. Many are still missing.

His government denied their murder.

They made us question the evidence of our own eyes.

They spat on our memory and dared us to forget.

I remember the Shi’ites
fathers, sons, women, children
dragged through dust, crushed under boots,
for daring to march and pray differently.

I remember the violent burial of justice
when DSS agents invaded judges’ homes at midnight, Gestapo-style,
without warrants, without shame, without consequence.
Till date, no justification.
And the judiciary never stood the same again.

I remember the hundreds of “repentant” Boko Haram terrorists he released back into society
with fanfare, jollof rice, sewing machines, starter packs, and smiles
while widows of slain soldiers clutched folded flags and death certificates.
While children from burnt villages grew up without homes,
without fathers,
without mothers,
without answers.

I remember the grievous collapse of the economy
the deepest plunge into abyss this nation had witnessed in recent history
while Buhari repeatedly abandoned the country, disappearing for weeks without remorse, without explanation.

As inflation soared, the Naira crumbled into disgrace, and food prices became horror stories,
he remained absent.

Absent while businesses folded.

Absent while the World Poverty Clock declared Nigeria the Poverty Capital of the World.

He watched from a distance, aloof, detached, unmoved
and whenever he spoke, it was either denial or pure condescension.

No strategy.

No empathy.

No shame.

I remember the wickedness of his final days in office
a Naira redesign wrapped in the disguise of reform,
announced without foresight,
without care for the poor, the sick, the elderly, or the rural.

People died not for lack of medicine,
but because they couldn’t use or access their money to purchase it.

Aged parents wept bitterly in the streets, under the hot sun,
for days that turned into weeks, because their own money was locked away.

And Buhari, the Chief Architect of that doomsday policy
the man under whose watch lives wasted like scraps of paper
was the single biggest beneficiary of public goodwill in our democratic history!

Yet they say, “Do not speak ill of the dead.”

Why?

Because he is now under the earth?

Was he not godlike in power while we suffered under his rule?

Since when did death become a bleach that wipes away how people lived?

Since when did dying canonize men who had no empathy for the living?

He died in London
not in Zaria, not in Enugu, not in Jos
but in a foreign hospital most Nigerians cannot even dream of, let alone afford.

And his media aide, Femi Adesina, looked Nigerians dead in the face and said,
"Buhari could have long died if he used Nigerian hospitals...due to lack of medical competence..."

The sheer cruelty of the Nigerian ruling class in full glare!

So, who should use Nigerian hospitals?

Who should suffer the lack of "medical competence"?

The aggrieved masses, from whom you now demand silence or empathy for the dead?

The one who ruled for 8 YEARS over bad hospitals, empty pharmacies, and unpaid doctors?

And when his time came, he fled, as usual, the very system he created.

He ran from his own legacy.

How many Nigerians can run from bad governance?
How many of you reading this can afford London clinics?

But again, they say: “Do not speak ill of the dead.”

Do not remember your pain.
Do not remember your trauma.
Do not remember the loved ones you buried.
Do not remember the blood that dried on our streets.
Do not remember your truth.

But I do remember.
And I will not be silent.

He governed like a ghost
distant, cold, silent
except when denying responsibility.

He left a nation poorer, angrier, and more broken than he met it.
He stole our time.
He wasted our growth.
He stifled our voice.

And now, they want to steal our memory too?

Nigeria is a tragedy dressed in resilience.

We are too forgiving.
Too adaptive.
Too FORGETFUL.

We hug trauma like tradition.

We laugh in hunger...in pain!

We move on too fast, too far, before our wounds even scab.

We’ve normalized cuddling and being ruled by people who do not love us.

Leaders who weaponize our silence.

Who live lavishly off our forgetfulness.

Who take and take and take
because they know:
When they die, we’ll still say “rest in peace.”
We’ll still honor their ignoble memory and whisper: “Don’t speak ill of the dead.”

And so we never name shame.

We never call wickedness exactly what it is.

We never hang failure around the necks of those who earned it.

And that is why it never ends.

That is why they never stop taking us for granted.

Let Buhari’s name NEVER be uttered with reverence.

Let his memory haunt the halls of power.

Let his people carry the burden of the name that emptied a nation.

Let every living and future president, governor, senator, judge, and minister know:

If you ruin lives, you will not be remembered in peace.

We will not lie for you.

We will not absolve you.

We will not let death whitewash your legacy.

We will not silence our truth for the comfort of your memory.

---
This post is about us.

About Nigeria.

And how we keep burying our trauma under the cloak of politeness.

We say: “Let the dead rest.”

But did the dead let us rest?

We say: "Respect the dead."

But did the dead respect the living?

We must stop confusing cowardice for civility.
We must stop mistaking silence for grace.
We must be comfortable with painful truth, demanding accountability, and having tough conversations!

We must make it clear:

To die in disgrace must be a warning to the living.

A nation that does not shame the wicked will keep giving birth to monsters.

I want a country
where our children have a future they can trust.

Where they look up to their leaders and not just up at airplanes far in the sky.

Where our brightest minds don’t flee to be second-class citizens elsewhere.

Where hospitals heal, not kill.

Where doctors and health personnel are well paid
and not told to go learn tailoring, like Buhari's own Health Minister once said,
without fear of any rebuke from his boss, the President!

Where leaders are true stewards, not shameless, heartless predators.

And if that future must begin with truth,
then let it begin here.

Buhari failed this country.
Spectacularly.
Shamelessly.
Fatally.

He squandered hope and enormous goodwill, the kind never seen before.

That is his legacy, and I will not pretend otherwise.

Because when death becomes a sweet deodorant for wickedness,
we teach the living that legacies don’t matter
and that is how nations die long before their people do.

And to those of you who say, “He’s gone now. Let’s move on. Let’s focus on our own legacy…”

I say: we cannot build clean legacies atop the graves of unaccounted wickedness.

To move forward without reckoning is not wisdom; it is willful amnesia. It is dangerous, faux morality!

The dead may be gone, yes. But their choices still live with us.

Their impact outlives their breath.

And the way we remember them tells the living what history will one day say of them too.

“Do not speak ill of the dead?”

Then, let the dead live better.

Let them lead with conscience,

remembering the day they'll take their final breath.

Enough of political correctness that earns us nothing.

Enough of false civility that brings us more chains and despair.

Enough of this culture of respectability we have pushed too far into sheer docility.

Let the dead rest, if they so deserve.

But let the truth never sleep.

My name is Ayo Atitebi, and I am my father's child!
Copied.

YOUR MIND IS YOUR MIGHT!

Investing more in your mind than in material possessions is one of the most transformative decisions an individual can make. While material items may offer temporary gratification, the development of the mind yields lifelong returns—wisdom, resilience, creativity, and adaptability.

The human mind, when nurtured through learning, reflection, and critical thinking, becomes a powerful engine for growth, problem-solving, and innovation. Unlike possessions that depreciate or become obsolete, the insights and intellectual skills you gain compound over time, enabling you to see opportunities where others see obstacles.

In a rapidly changing world, it is not what you own that gives you an edge, but what you know, how you think, and how well you can adapt. Education, mental discipline, and self-awareness are the keys that unlock true wealth—one that cannot be stolen, devalued, or lost.

Moreover, spending more on your mind instills confidence and elevates purpose. A well-nurtured mind becomes a reservoir of clarity and vision that transcends materialism. You learn to measure success not by the quantity of things, but by the quality of thoughts, the impact of your contributions, and the depth of your peace.

Books, mentorship, skill development, spiritual growth, and mental health support are not luxuries—they are essentials for anyone committed to a fulfilled and impactful life. When you prioritize mind over matter, you build a life that is not only successful but sustainable. As the saying goes, "If you feed your mind, your life will follow." Choose to invest where it truly counts—in the wealth of your inner world.

Friends, always remember, your MIND is your MIGHT..... Spend massively on it, because the ROI is also massive!

Just an attempt to SPARK value!

BREAKING: FROM CRISIS TO CONFIDENCE: CBN GOVERNOR CARDOSO NAMED AFRICA'S BEST CENTRAL BANK GOVERNOR

In a monumental recognition of Nigeria's economic leadership, Central Bank Governor Yemi Cardoso has been awarded the prestigious title of Africa's Best Central Bank Governor. This esteemed award is a testament to Governor Cardoso's unwavering dedication, strategic vision, and exceptional leadership in navigating the Nigerian economy through turbulent waters.

The announcement of this award has sent shockwaves of excitement throughout the nation, with many Nigerians expressing pride and admiration for Governor Cardoso's remarkable achievement. The recognition is not only a personal triumph for the governor but also a validation of the Central Bank of Nigeria's (CBN) efforts to stabilize the economy and restore investor confidence.

Governor Cardoso's appointment as the governor of the CBN was marked by significant economic challenges, including rising inflation, foreign exchange shortages, and dwindling investor confidence. However, under his stewardship, the CBN has implemented various policies aimed at addressing these challenges and promoting economic growth. The governor's leadership has been characterized by a commitment to transparency, accountability, and prudent monetary policy management.

One of Governor Cardoso's most notable achievements is his efforts to unify the country's multiple exchange rates, which had created distortions in the foreign exchange market. By introducing policies aimed at converging the rates, the CBN has made significant progress in reducing arbitrage opportunities and promoting a more efficient allocation of foreign exchange resources.

Another area where Governor Cardoso has made a significant impact is in the area of financial inclusion. Under his leadership, the CBN has implemented policies aimed at increasing access to financial services, particularly for underserved populations. The governor's commitment to financial inclusion has led to an increase in the number of Nigerians with access to banking services, thereby promoting economic growth and reducing poverty.

The award of Africa's Best Central Bank Governor to Governor Cardoso is a recognition of his efforts to promote economic stability and growth in Nigeria.

He has worked closely with various stakeholders, including government officials, financial sector operators, and civil society organizations, to promote a more stable and prosperous economy.

The implications of this award are far-reaching, and it is expected to have a positive impact on the Nigerian economy. With Governor Cardoso at the helm of the CBN, investors are likely to have increased confidence in the country's economic management, which could lead to increased foreign direct investment. This, in turn, could lead to economic growth, job creation, and a reduction in poverty.

Furthermore, the award is a validation of the CBN's efforts to promote financial stability and reduce systemic risk in the financial system. Governor Cardoso's leadership has been marked by a commitment to prudential regulation and supervision, which has helped to reduce the risk of financial instability and promote a more stable financial system.

In conclusion, Governor Yemi Cardoso's award as Africa's Best Central Bank Governor is a testament to his exceptional leadership and dedication to promoting economic stability and growth in Nigeria. The recognition is a validation of the CBN's efforts to stabilize the economy and restore investor confidence. As the Nigerian economy continues to navigate through challenging times, Governor Cardoso's leadership and vision will be crucial in promoting a more stable and prosperous economy.

The award also highlights the importance of effective monetary policy management in promoting economic growth and stability. It serves as a reminder that the leadership of central banks plays a critical role in shaping the economic fortunes of nations. In the case of Nigeria, Governor Cardoso's leadership has been instrumental in promoting economic stability and restoring investor confidence.

As Nigeria looks to the future, Governor Cardoso's award as Africa's Best Central Bank Governor is a beacon of hope for a brighter economic future. It is a testament to the progress that has been made in stabilizing the economy and promoting economic growth. With continued commitment to prudent economic management, Nigeria is poised to achieve even greater economic heights in the years to come.

The international community has taken note of Governor Cardoso's achievement, with many international organizations and financial institutions congratulating him on his award. The award is seen as a recognition of Nigeria's economic potential and the progress that has been made in stabilizing the economy.

In summary, Governor Yemi Cardoso's award as Africa's Best Central Bank Governor is a significant achievement that reflects his exceptional leadership and dedication to promoting economic stability and growth in Nigeria. The recognition is a validation of the CBN's efforts to stabilize the economy and restore investor confidence. As Nigeria continues to navigate through challenging times, Governor Cardoso's leadership and vision will be crucial in promoting a more stable and prosperous economy.

Governor Cardoso's achievement serves as an inspiration to other central bank governors in Africa and around the world. His leadership style, policy initiatives, and commitment to transparency and accountability have set a high standard.
