Legacy is not what you leave behind, but who you raise up along the way."

Legacy is not what you leave behind, but who you raise up along the way."

With a heavy heart, I received the news of the passing of the revered Traditional Ruler of Isuochi Ancient Kingdom in Umunneochi LGA, His Royal Majesty, Eze Godwin Irononso Ezekwesiri, the Ochi 1 of Isuochi. His demise is a profound loss, not only to his immediate community but to the entire Abia State. Eze Ezekwesiri was more than a royal father; he was a statesman whose wisdom, experience, and selfless leadership enriched generations. Over his five decades on the throne, he exemplified peace, unity, and progressive leadership, touching lives positively within his kingdom and beyond. At a time when the younger generation could greatly benefit from his wealth of knowledge and guidance, we mourn his passing while cherishing the indelible legacy he leaves behind. On behalf of my family, the government, and the good people of Abia State, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Ezekwesiri family, the people of Umunneochi, and all who had the privilege of experiencing his impactful reign. May God grant his soul eternal rest and give his family and community the strength to bear this immense loss.

Listen up, Men! This “I Owe Nobody” Mentality Is Why Modern Women Are Broken—Here’s the Harsh Truth Women today love to scream, “I owe nobody this, I owe nobody that,” like it’s some badge of honor. That’s how we got to this level of irresponsibility, broken relationships, broken marriages, and a society full of reckless women who hit 35 without a man and a body count that makes a calculator sweat. Let’s be real—this mentality is pure poison. Here’s the truth they don’t want to hear: you owe people plenty. Respect, empathy, compassion, good character, and accountability aren’t optional—they’re the bare minimum for being a decent human. But let’s not stop there. You owe your husband virginity, submission, and obedience—period. That’s not oppression—that’s order. Society crumbles without it. 1. “I Owe Nobody Respect” Is Why No Man Wants You Respect isn’t something you give based on your mood—it’s the foundation of any relationship. Women who refuse to respect men wonder why they keep getting ghosted. When a woman thinks she’s above showing respect, what she’s really saying is, “I’m entitled to everything without earning anything.” Men see that mentality from a mile away and run. And they should. No man should have to beg for basic respect. 2. “I Owe Nobody Empathy” Is Why Your Friendships Are Trash Empathy is about understanding the other person’s point of view—not about making everything about you. Women who scream about not owing anyone empathy are the same ones who can’t keep friends for longer than six months because every conversation turns into “me, me, me.” That’s why they spend their nights on TikTok live streams instead of having meaningful conversations. No empathy, no real connections—simple. 3. “I Owe Nobody My Virginity”—And That’s Why You’re Single at 35 Here’s the hard truth—a woman’s virginity is a gift, not a given. A man who works his entire life to build a legacy deserves a woman who has the discipline to save herself. You owe your husband

THINGS THAT CAUSE REGRET AT OLD AGE When younger, we make various choice's without the future in mind. Sometimes those choices bite us in our mid-life. These are some of the things one might regret when they're older. 1. Marrying the wrong person When you're young, check your motives for marrying. Don't marry to copy your peers, or for social standing or out of pressure. Marry for love and companionship, marry the right person, marry your best friend. For if you marry the wrong person or for the wrong reasons, you will have to put up with that person the rest of your life. Things might get worse between you two; then depression, physical abuse, affairs, pain, shame, court cases, bitterness will define your mid-life years all because you chose the wrong one. Things will get worse when children are involved. Make the right choice of a spouse when you are young. 2. The opportunities you did not seize When you are younger many doors will open, you will get many chances. Many young people let these opportunities go because of fear, laziness, or pride; yet well younger and with more energy is the best time to start a venture and a name for yourself. Some think the opportunities are too big for them. Take advantage of them or one day when you're older you will want to go back and grab those missed chances. 3. The bridges you burned When we are younger, we care little for relationships, what most think about is getting money and moving up the ladder of success at all cost. Many use and trample on people to progress, they take relationships for granted, messing up bonds, sleeping with people for personal gain. But these bad actions will catch up with you ahead. When you will realize how empty life is without love and friends. When you will have success but no one around you or no one to trust you. 4.The child you aborted You are a young lady, you get pregnant and you are scared. You take the aborting option quickly thinking of that moment then. But when you are much older, you will look back and wish you kept that baby. When you will be rich and successful you will wish that child you gave up on would be around to enjoy the fruits of your hard work. Being a single mother doesn't mean you can't make it in life or you can't find a man in future. 5. The child you rejected Young man, you impregnated a woman, she told you she's pregnant with your child. You rejected her and the baby and ran. But years later when you're 50 something, you will wish you were responsible, you will wish you manned up and became a father to that child. You will see that child excel and become an adult but will have no claim to that grown child who you rejected from the beginning. You will regret being a Dead Beat Dad by choice 6. The marriage you destroyed So you get married to your good fiance; the first months in marriage were good but shortly after, with your money and charm, you started having affairs. You became unfaithful. Your spouse begged you to stop, your children started hurting, your marriage was collapsing. One day when you are older, it will hit you how foolish you were to destroy the good marriage you had began to build for mere temporary thrills in affairs that did you no good. You will realize the damage you caused to your children and spouse. 7. The God you disowned When you are much older you become wiser, God becomes more real as you see life in a more meaningful way. But don't wait to get older to start enjoying a relationship with God. Know God when you are young, build your future with God. Don't be a young rebel who runs back to God when age catches up. 8. The body you messed up You have only one body to live with all your life. The cigarettes, the alcohol you are abusing, the drugs you are taking, the unhealthy food you're consuming; all that will destroy you slowly. When you are 50 and lifestyle diseases catch up with you, you will wish you took care of your body when younger, that you exercised more; but now the damage is done. 9. The time you wasted The time you are wasting when younger in worry, wrong relationships, laziness, being a couch potato, giving excuses and pursuing meaningless things; you will never get it back. 10. The dreams and talents you shelved Are you talented when young; are there things you love to do and you are good at them? Nurture those talents, exploit them, don't give up even if you encounter set backs, don't give up on your dreams. If you give up, when you're older you will look at your peers who stuck to what they love and made it and think to yourself, "That could have been me". Pursue a career, study a course you love. Don't waste years of your life in a field that doesn't fulfill you. 11 The name you defamed When you are older, a legacy is very important, the value of your name is crucial. You will ask yourself what is your reputation, what are you leaving behind? Your legacy is a sum total of your actions since youthful days. We write our biography by how we live life everyday. When you look back your path and you see the mud you threw at your own name, the shame you attracted and the little value you have added to the world; you will regret. 12. The wealth you threw away Are you riding on good money during your productive years? Earning good money? Don't throw away that money in clubs, reckless living and wasteful shopping. Invest with that money, widen your revenue stream, make that money work for you and keep it safe to take care of you in your older years. Leave an inheritance for your loved ones so that you will never say "I wish I knew better" 13. The good love that got away Is there that great person in your life loving you good? Don't push that person away, or else that person will walk out your life and you will never ever find someone that incredible and who connects with you all your life. It will torment you to grow older with thoughts of "What if I was still with that person?" 14 The parents you despised When younger, it is easy to show contempt to your parents; what do your parent's know? They are old-fashioned, shady and small -minded. But your parents are still your parents whether you agree with them or not, whatever their style. Don't let your parent die or age separated from you, reconcile and make up. When you get older, you will realize why your parents wanted to be close to you. The older you get, the more you see the value. Thanks for reading To realize The value of a sister or brother Ask someone Who doesn't have one.

"Amazing Grace, How Sweet the Sound" is one of the most beloved and iconic hymns in Christian history. Here's a brief overview: History of the Hymn - *Author:* John Newton (1725-1807), an English Anglican clergyman and former slave ship captain. - *Composition:* Newton wrote the hymn in 1772 as a poem, titled "Faith's Review and Expectation." - *Publication:* The poem was first published in Newton's collection of hymns called "The Olney Hymns" in 1779. - *Melody:* The familiar tune, known as "New Britain," was composed by James P. Carrell and David S. Clayton in the early 19th century. Inspiration Behind the Hymn Newton's experiences as a slave ship captain and his subsequent conversion to Christianity heavily influenced the writing of "Amazing Grace." He was born in London and began his career at sea, eventually becoming the captain of a slave ship. However, after a near-death experience in a storm, Newton began to question his involvement in the slave trade. Conversion and Ministry In 1748, Newton converted to Christianity, and his faith led him to abandon the slave trade. He became an ordained Anglican priest and served as a pastor in Olney, Bucking hamshire. Newton's experiences and faith are reflected in the powerful lyrics of "Amazing Grace." Popularity and Legacy "Amazing Grace" gained popularity in the United States during the Second Great Awakening in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The hymn has since become a beloved classic, translated into numerous languages and performed by countless artists. Its enduring message of redemption, forgiveness, and the power of faith continues to inspire people around the world.

Senate 'll Promote Progressive Governance, National Development - Akpabio President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio has reiterated the commitment of the Senate under his leadership to progressive governance, economic empowerment, and national development. Akpabio stated this in his acceptance speech after his investiture as a Fellow of the Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers in Lagos on Friday. According to Akpabio, "the Senate’s commitment to progressive governance, economic empowerment, and national development remains unwavering. And I assure you that this honor will not be taken lightly. If anything, it will only spur me to work harder, to push further, and to serve better. "I stand before you today deeply honored, profoundly humbled, and immensely grateful. To receive the Honorary Fellowship of this distinguished institution is not just a privilege; it is a testament that there are values we hold dear—the values of service, excellence, and unwavering dedication to building a stronger, more prosperous Nigeria. Akpabio noted that, "for over five decades, the Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers has stood as a beacon of professionalism, integrity, and nation-building. You are the silent architects of Nigeria’s urban transformation, the custodians of our nation’s physical wealth, and the guardians of the principles that sustain our economy—accountability, due process, and strategic planning." "Your work ensures that our cities are well-planned, our investments are secured, and our future is built on a solid foundation. Without you, the skylines of Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt would remain concepts, not realities. Without you, businesses would struggle to find the confidence to invest, and without you, the dream of homeownership for many Nigerians would remain just that—a dream. "So today, as I receive this honor, I do so not as an individual, but as a representative of the Nigerian Senate, as a servant of the Nigerian people, and as a voice of the Nigerian people. I also know that leadership is about legacy. Therefore, I dedicate this award to the 10th National Assembly and the great people of Nigeria, who have entrusted us with the sacred duty representing them in the governance of this country.. "This recognition is not just a celebration of what has been done, but a call to action for what must be done. It is a charge to lead with renewed vigor, to continue to fight for policies that will make housing more affordable, land administration more transparent, and infrastructure more sustainable. "It is a call to ensure that Nigeria’s land and property assets are managed with the efficiency, integrity, and foresight that will secure our economic future. "To my brothers and sisters in the real estate and valuation profession, I say—your work is critical to Nigeria’s development. And we, in government, are listening. The policies we craft, the laws we enact, the reforms we champion—all must align with the vision of a Nigeria where economic growth is not just a statistic, but a reality that uplifts every citizen. "To the leadership of NIESV, I thank you again for this recognition. To the distinguished guests here today, I thank you for your presence. And to the Nigerian people, I reaffirm my commitment to you—because in the end, governance is about service, and service is about people.
