Can’t believe Russia and Ukraine are still at this. The world is getting so used to prolonged conflict that casualty figures have more or less become background noise. Sad.

You can change the way you feel with God’s word. Feelings are not “always valid.”

London Gatwick is growing on me. Used to be die-hard Heathrow for no reason.

Moderated a panel on Innovative Financing and Capital Mobilisation for Africa’s Development at the LSE Futures Forum. Key takeaway: Africa’s biggest challenge is not a lack of capital, but creating the conditions for capital to flow where it can have the greatest impact.

Glad to have welcomed Mark Okoye to LSE this week. Great conversations on big ideas for Southeast Nigeria and the institutional partnerships that will bring them to life. Watch this space.

"I will never have another child again. Childbirth damaged me permanently." For Faith, the joy of motherhood was eclipsed by the "husband stitch," an unapproved medical procedure done to make her "tighter" for her husband. Two years later, the physical and emotional pain hasn't stopped. We investigate the controversial practice putting Nigerian women’s safety second to male pleasure.

Yesterday, the room was filled with energy and insight at the IWD Brunch. It was a day we had dedicated to closing the gender gap by fostering connection and mentorship among women from different generations and backgrounds, AGS Vice Curator said in her opening remarks.

Can someone offer a credible economic cost of the war in Iran? The middle east is very badly hit and I wonder how much has been lost since this all began.

Violent incidents against civilians are becoming increasingly prevalent across Nigeria. From recent cases in Kwara state to long-standing incidences in Benue, arson, banditry, terrorism and the likes are threatening the lives and livelihoods of Nigerians and the security of their communities. Here’s a snapshot of reported violence incidents and civilian casualties in Nigeria in the first and second week of February, as tracked by CJID's National Conflict Tracker. Every week, we will highlight the scale, spread and patterns of conflict across affected states in the country. Stay informed. 📌 #Violence #ConflictTracker #Nigeria

Excited to be back to school for a Master of Public Policy at LSE. My focus will be on the geopolitics of critical minerals, industrial strategy, and how Nigeria can best navigate current geopolitical winds for structural transformation and increased value capture.
