Congratulations, Kehinde! I'm super proud of your journey so far. Yours is an incredible transformation story, and it's so much joy that you've taken up the power to tell your own story. I'm excited about the great future ahead.
P.S: How did you grow taller than me so fast? 😃

Taibat is one out of millions of Nigerian child slaves. What the maker of the video wants us to believe is scary but there is a backstory. A child admittedly starved and badgered to confess as a thief and attempted murderer on video has a no less serious case against her accusers
Great to be with the bigger boys in UI today and congratulations to them on their matric. Such joy to see them walk the same path and drink from the same fount. Thank you

No one has a lawful right to keep any child as house help. Those who give children as domestic servants & those who hire them are modern day slave dealers. If you take a poor child into your home, give that child a fair chance to become what you want your own children to become
Every outreach

If the motive for bringing a child into your home is so that she can help you take care of your own child, you have many things to be afraid of. Be afraid of the monster you are breeding in your home; be afraid of the judgment of God who didn't make that child to be your slave
Many treasures in the slums. It's always an absolute privilege each time we go looking for them

You can call Buharí's June 12 declaration politics or election-winning gimmick. What matters is that a vital page of our history that was erased by an insensitive political cabal has just been re-written boldly and indelibly. Buhari got this right! Happy Democracy Day in advance!
Within the slums and streets lies enormous greatness. Such treasures shouldn't waste away. Thank you everyone making real change happen

It's exciting to be nominated for the Tällberg Leaders Mentoring Leaders program Class of 2024. I'm grateful for the opportunity to join changemakers from across the continents to advance the conversation for new thinking for effective global leadership.
I love this family

We groan that over 13.2M Nigerian kids are out of school. Here's what you can do: tell that child that roams in your area that it's time for school. He/she will need tax clearance & LASRRA cert. of parent or guardian. Be the guardian, ask govt to review enrolment requirements
For many years, I've witnessed first-hand the transformation that happens when we educate children. There's so much in every child. We can't let them waste away on the streets, under the bridge and in the slums. That's why we are restless. Take action with us

It's the blessing of God for us to find joy in our work. Lawyering is fun. I love the law even in the face of maddening timelines and overwhelming work schedule.
If your default is to see the worst in everything, happiness will always elude you. If you rarely see things that lift your soul, it is not that great things don't happen anymore. You just need to change the lens through which you see life

The humans of The Destiny Trust are undoubtedly some of the best. This incredible tribe serves unpaid, gives generously, and even takes loans to educate, shelter, feed and provide healthcare to children – often absolute strangers on the streets, in slums and under the bridges. /1
Can Lagos Government do a quick assessment of how the Okada/tricycle ban is affecting school attendance across public schools? This simple policy impact assessment will help us see that we left many things undone before enforcing the okada ban.

Why do politicians think that offering free medical supplies/services to voters during election campaign is different from giving them rice, salt or ankara? Medical outreach to voters is the new face of crime of voters inducement. They care for your votes; not your health
What's this savagery about Sowore's arrest, detention, re-arrest and now this sacrilege? What happened to us? Do we still have a Constitution? Who emboldened DSS to act so flagrantly; and in open Court?? Shame on all of us for our silence! Shame!!!
