Incredible performance and powerful words by Nigerian rapper & recording artist, @LadiPoe! "United voices make history. You can only understand the power of your voice when you use it. I am so proud of my generation; I am so proud of the youth.” Thank you @LadiPoe & #DevexWorld!
Awesome close to @devex bravo #DevexWorld 🎶 “I come from a country where we have voices but no one hears them. Individual voices make noise, united voices make waves. I made this song to remind myself that I have a voice, and so do you.” @LadiPoe
“People underestimate the power of love”...Richard Curtis watches his own film ‘Love Actually’ every 5 years. “It looks like an expensive diary now”...But, he’s obsessed with Elf. Huh! ❄️ @devex #DevexWorld
