I saw a post about a handler who told a customer, “You are not a serious buyer, bye,” just because the customer said, “I will get back to you.” (The post is in the comment section.)

The truth is, anyone can learn a skill. People can even learn on the job.
But you cannot teach respect, empathy, or good communication to someone who doesn’t have it.
It has to be in them.

This applies to every field from banking to healthcare. A rude nurse can make patients stop coming, just like a careless sales rep can damage your brand.
𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒃𝒂𝒅 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒉𝒖𝒓𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝒂 𝒃𝒂𝒅 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒅𝒖𝒄𝒕.

Customers don’t always buy immediately. Even in the market, I make enquiries and negotiate prices.
Some people need to plan, compare, or save up.
As a handler, your job is to make them feel good enough to come back later or even refer others.
The way you make people feel matters.

I wasn’t taught customer communication in my social media mgt and marketing courses.
I only came across it when I took a customer service course on Coursera.

But even without that course, What happened to common sense?
If it were her own business, would she talk to her customers that way?

Don’t hire only for skill. Hire people who reflect your values.
A skilled person with bad character can destroy what you spent years building in one minute.

Your brand voice isn’t just in your posts, It’s in every dm, comment, and reply.
Protect your brand. Hire wisely.

Kindly engage, like, comment or share.

Someday You May Forget About Me, My Name, My Voice, Who I Am And Who I Was To You. But Even If You Still Totally Forget About Me, I Just Want You To Know That I Will Never Forget A Single Thing About You And Everything We Went Through.

This is the body of a one time most powerful and most influencia man in Nigeria and a strong voice in Africa too wrapped in just a single cloth.
Not in his mansion
Not in his exotic cars
Not in his private jet
Not even in a casket ⚰
Just him alone going back to his maker

If this photo doesn't teach you a single lesson about life then nothing will ever teach you.

It makes us to ask questions like: what's the essence of life?
Just come here, struggle then dieee and leave everything you struggled for.

*THE RESTORER'S DAILY GUIDE*

DATE: THURSDAY 17TH JULY 2025

THEME: *INVOKING THE BLESSING OF THE SEVENTEENTH SEASON*

MEMORIZE
Genesis 8:4
And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

READ
Genesis 7:11-12
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*The key to this sacred season is prayers and fasting and submission to God's authority*

MESSAGE
This new millennium is already twenty-five years old.

Today is the seventeenth day of the seventh month of the twenty-fifth year of this millennium. I hope this strikes a chord in you.

There are no meaningless details in scriptures. The flood that carried Noah and his family began on the seventeenth day of a certain month and also brought the same ark to it's resting place for a new beginning on the seventeenth day of the seventh month of the year. This couldn't have been a coincidence.

Today is the anniversary of DIVINE REST for you and your family in Jesus' name.

We need to pay attention to the voice of this season as it unfolds and unwinds itself before our very eyes.

The ark of Noah found its resting place upon the mountains of Ararat on the seventeenth day of the seventh month of the year. That is significant because that date has come around before us again today.

Therefore, as a prophet, I declare your own season of REST upon the mountains of your significance in destiny in Jesus' name.

In the seventeenth book of the Bible, the divine page opened upon the life of an innocent slave girl in diaspora, and she rose from being a nonentity to notoriety. At the same time, a wicked man rose in the same kingdom. Hamman rose with an evil agenda to destroy the people of covenant. But by divine intervention, Esther, through prayers and fasting in submission to authority, overthrew the Dominion of evil and their sponsors.

Mordecai was brought into power in the place of the wicked Hamman.
Therefore, the seventeenth season is a season of the RISE OF POWERS. But it's the time to overthrow evil Dominion and enthrone the people of covenant to power. It is a time of open reward for every secret Labours in the past.

Every consecration of the past will produce a crown upon the head of the righteous.

It is a season of sudden announcements of overdue promotions. At the same time, it is a season of great temptation for God's people; but through prayers and fasting, God shall raise up a MIGHTY horn of deliverance for us in the land.

Therefore beloved, I suggest you take out time to pray and to fast today in order for you to be sensitive to the voice of the season; and to consequently lay hold on the promises of God for this season.

May the blessings of this season come now upon you and your family in Jesus' name.

ACTION STEPS
1. Prayerfully meditate on today's devotional guide.
2. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you through this season wacthfully.
3. Be intentional about your personal fellowship with the LORD.

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. Oh, LORD GOD of HOST let the heaven of this season open to me now and let its blessings locate me in Jesus' name. Amen.

REMEMBER
*The key to this sacred season is prayers and fasting and submission to God's authority.*

HYMN
1
Blessed assurance—Jesus is mine!
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God;
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.

This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long.

2
Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture burst on my sight;
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

3
Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Saviour am happy and blest;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

"Your cannot succeed in Life if you don't have a voice speaking to you"

You need a voice. I beseech you to choose the Voice of the Holy Spirit.

"Growing up in Barbados, I always felt connected to something greater something beyond the island. One day, my mum shared a part of our story that stayed with me. She told me, “Your roots trace back to Igbo Africa.”

It wasn’t just history it was identity. The Igbo people are known for their resilience, creativity, and strong sense of community. Learning that gave me a deeper understanding of myself of my strength, my voice, and even my passion for expression through music and culture.

It reminded me that where we come from shapes how we rise. And I carry that with me"

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

When Fighters Unite, Tyrants Tremble!

This gesture transcended a simple handshake; it symbolized a catalyst for change.

Nnamdi Kanu and Omoyele Sowore — two influential voices that pose a significant threat to the oppressors. One advocates for Biafran self-determination, while the other champions a revolution to liberate all Nigerians, from north to south.

In New York, they converged to declare a unified stance: The people will not be divided. We will not succumb to oppression.

This image serves as a poignant reminder: The genuine adversaries are not our tribes, languages, or faiths, but rather the corrupt elite who exploit our suffering for personal gain.

Their strategy is to instill fear among us, fueling divisions. However, when we unite — Igbo, Yoruba, Ijaw, Hausa, Idoma, Tiv — our collective power as a free people becomes an unstoppable force.

May we never forget the transformative impact of unity. May our pursuit of justice remain unwavering. #FreedomNow #FreeNnamdiKanu #RevolutionNow #UniteAndResist #Nigeria

Yahaya Jingir Calls Peter Obi “Igbo Who Killed Sardauna”, Blasts His IZALA Deputy for Receiving Him
In a long, angry, and openly tribalistic video recorded on Friday, July 11, 2025, in Jos, Sheikh Yahaya Jingir, leader of Izala, violently attacked his own National Deputy, calling him a madman for welcoming or gifting a Muslim robe to Peter Obi, whom Jingir labelled “the evil Igbo who killed Sardauna.”

Jingir shamelessly generalized the 1966 coup that led to the death of Sir Ahmadu Bello (Sardaunan Sokoto) as if it was the collective act of all Igbo people.
He ranted:

He said I. Hausa language “Shame on you for receiving the killer of Sardauna! How can you welcome them ?!”

This is the same Jingir who:

Recently demanded police and soldiers arrest all Hausa.

Said “nobody should arrest Fulani”,

Insulted the Nigerian Police, calling them “CAN police” (Christian Association of Nigeria police),

Never once condemned Fulani bandit killers who’ve massacred thousands,

Forgot that Fulani themselves kille'd Sheikh Muhammadu Alwali, the last Hausa King of Kano, and the Sarkin Gobir.

Now, this man who has openly defended Fula'ni killers turns around to spew hatred against Igbo people too.
What exactly does Peter Obi, a civilian politicians have to do with the Sardauna’s death?
Why Yahaya Jingir spread hate and blame the whole Igbo people the same he does with the Hausa ?

The video is real, raw, and dangerous. And it shows exactly why figures like Yahaya Jingir remain among the most openly tribalistic and divisive voices in Nigeria today.

He has never spoken on behalf of Muslim, he speaks on behalf of his tribesmen.
