A Homeland Worth Fighting For

Sometimes, we can’t see the impact of our efforts on our continent. But small acts, seemingly inconsequential, are like seeds planted that will eventually bear fruit, often beyond our line of sight. 

Yes, the work ahead of us may feel huge, and it’s true there’s much to be done, but sitting idly, hoping for change without action, won’t lead us there. The miracles we desire—the progress we envision for our homeland—depend on each one of us stepping up. 

We can’t afford to be discouraged or complacent in the face of challenges. Every small effort you make, every gesture of goodwill, every attempt to uplift someone—it all adds up and makes a difference.

When you contribute to Africa’s growth, no matter how small, you honor where you came from, and you contribute to where it is going. Let’s not grow weary of doing what is right, for if we persevere, we will one day see the results we hoped for.

The challenges we face now—the conflicts, the setbacks, the frustration—will pass. Wars do eventually cease; peace has a way of finding its place again. It may feel like the path is long, but resilience paves the way for triumph. 

When we keep hope alive, grounded in a practical understanding of what it will take to see change, we find the strength to continue. This hope isn’t empty or naïve. It’s a real, sustaining hope that fuels the determination to keep moving forward.

I know you may feel disheartened. Perhaps you've invested your resources—time, money, energy—into initiatives that have yet to bear fruit. Maybe you've been disappointed by those you trusted or felt the sting of a failed business. I've heard a lot of such stories.

You might even wonder if there’s some invisible barrier holding back the continent, as though every attempt is met with resistance. But you know what, just because the breakthrough hasn’t happened yet doesn’t mean it never will. 

Progress can be slow and the journey rocky, but history shows us that persistence often pays off. The obstacles we face today are often the last barricades before a breakthrough.

When we face turbulent times, it’s a signal that something greater lies ahead. Change rarely comes without struggle, but this struggle can lead to a brighter future. If we maintain our faith and our resolve, we’ll see things turn around. 

Africa will rise again, and our homeland will find its footing.

So, let’s continue—unwavering in our efforts, strong in our hope, and steady in our commitment. Together, we will build an Africa that will make a great impact on the world.

The Only Way to Secure Your Future

Facing the future can be so scary with all the insecurities and problems we now have in the world. 

Things and life remain unpredictable. You actually don’t know what could happen tomorrow. We live in the most uncertain times in human history. So, how do you navigate through this journey called life?

One thing I’m so excited about is the Word of God – the Word of life, the Word that has been before the existence of the world, the Word that created the heavens and the earth. This Word has already said something concerning your future. It has already made your future clear and secure. I know you may wonder how, and here is it;

“I know the thoughts I have toward you – thoughts of good, and not of evil, to give you a hope and a future.”

What does that mean? It means you don’t need to struggle for any future. You don’t need to worry about it. It has been created and perfected. All you need is to believe and walk in the reality of it. This is not a fallacy or superstition. It is a reality. It is the truth of God.

As we know – the world’s system is unstable. It is unpredictable. And it is unreliable. The only reliable Word is the Word of God. The Word that is spoken from the mouth of God to your life. The Word that created you and every other living being on earth.

So, trust in the Word, rely on Him. Let Him direct you and lead you in the way you should go. Do not be afraid or anxious, because His Word will always be with you, guiding and shielding you.

I see you walking in the glory and beauty of the future He has planned for you.

The Only System That Works in Africa (Part 2)

The only system that works in Africa is the church. I don’t care if you say they are manipulative or swindling people. What I know for sure is—the system is working and they are having results. If that be the case, there will be something to learn from them. 

Apart from a couple of issues here and there, religious leadership in Africa is something to reckon with. 

There are great qualities such as: organization, management, vision, focus, commitment, and service. People are devoted to the work of God, and they serve their leaders with diligence and reverence.

I don’t know any other system in Africa that is with that so much organization and excellence like the church. If you go to popular churches in Africa, you will understand what I’m talking about. 

When it comes to making individual lives better, there might be issues, but on a collective scale, they deserve kudos.

It’s not easy to lead people. Look at top organizations in the world. You will see them having challenges with dealing with people because human beings are the most difficult beings to control in the world. 

Despite that, many churches in Africa have thrived. They have been able to overcome the hurdles and challenges of establishing an organization on the continent.

Businesses might not thrive, but religious centers will. People might not go to their offices or workshops, but they will attend church services. Someone might not pay their children's school fees, but they will pay their tithes and offerings. All of this shows one thing—commitment.

There is something propelling our people to behave this way. They are not just robots. They are people with senses and wisdom. They know what they want and what is right for them. And to a large extent, that is us, Africans. That is who we are!

Even though many of us might not be doing these things right, we know it's working. We know if God has said it, He will do it. 

People believe their pastors more than the politicians. They believe the Bible more than the constitution of their country. And that is where the power is. That is where our strength is. We are a spiritually-inclined people.

This is not the case with many nations in the world. Africa has a unique case. We are a people of spiritual understanding.

So, if this religious system is already working, why not bring it on a larger scale? If we have so much honor and reverence for spiritual things, why not bring it to the most important part of our society—political leadership? 

Our politics must be sanitized with spiritual disinfectants. We need people who are spiritually sensitive, not just religious leaders. We need people who will leave personal and selfish ambitions aside and devote their lives to serving people and the nation.

As a matter of fact, every one of us will be involved in this leadership because we all have connection with God. We are all spiritually sensitive and alert, and that is what makes this leadership efficient. 

There will be no under-carpet dealings because whoever messes up will be dealt with spiritually and immediately.

Look at what happened in the early church to Ananias and Sapphira. They were both dealt with when they lied against the Holy Spirit. That is the same thing I see happening with those who take this leadership lightly.

God Himself will raise men and women who will serve His people and bring lasting solution and freedom to our nations and continent. 

Do watch out for the next article!

If Jesus Lived A Simple Life, Why Are You Living A Complicated One?

I know we are in a world where everything looks complicated—life, relationship, work, people, things, and so on. That may be your experience. You might have become used to it. But every time distractions come, remind yourself of your primary reason for being here. 

Suppose you're at work, feeling the weight of deadlines, office politics, and the pressure to succeed. It's easy to get lost in the hustle. Or take relationships, for instance—how often do we complicate them by holding on to grudges, harboring unmet expectations, or forcing ourselves into marriage because of pressure from family or friends?

Even in our spiritual lives, the world has a way of complicating what should be simple. Many people in churches and religious communities today are more concerned with material wealth and status than the spiritual well-being of themselves or others.

If Jesus, whose life so many of us aspire to emulate, lived free from such distractions, why are we complicating our lives with those things? Why are we entangled in the fleeting things of this world?

And I don't mean you should abandon what is good or stop striving to achieve your goals. I just mean you should have a simplicity mindset.

You should live your life without the desperation that often drives many into stress and anxiety. Remember that life, though short, can be lived in peace and fulfillment when we focus on what truly matters. 

Jesus showed us that simplicity doesn’t mean lack; it means freedom—freedom from the constant chase after things that don’t ultimately matter.

So, cut the fat. Remove unnecessary possessions, toxic relationships, or harmful habits from your life. Live simply, live godly, and let go of the complications that weigh you down. See you again. God bless you!

Why Africa Should Be Ruled By Spiritually-Led Leaders, Not Politically-Elected Tyrants (Part 1)

For years, we’ve been discussing the leadership problem that has besieged Africa, and it seems this problem is not going away anytime soon. Things remain practically unchanged, or are even getting worse. 

The tyrants in the form of political leaders refuse to leave. They grow old and rotten in their positions of leadership and even place their children and families in these roles, turning leadership into their family property. They loot public funds and become corrupt with power. Things get worse and worse, and our people are drowned in poverty.

What exactly should we do? How do we address this problem? I think we should go back to the very foundation of what caused our problem—the idea of introducing democracy into our system of leadership has been the major cause of our woes. 

Democracy is a pure scam in Africa. I have said it before (Read here: Democracy Is A Scam In Africa). It is nothing more than a tool used by foreign powers to colonize us and keep us under their oppression. Nothing has worked for us so far—it’s one step forward and ten steps backward. Where is the progress?

Apart from the fact that many nations claiming to practice democracy in the Western world are a bunch of hypocrites, with some practicing republics and others monarchies, democracy is chaos in Africa. It is not what we are used to. It is not what we are historically or naturally inclined toward.

The foreign system of government does not work in Africa. Our system is a spiritually-led government. Africa should be leading the world with spiritual insight and direction. Foreign countries should not be telling us what to do. We should be the ones leading the world spiritually.

We do not follow the systems of the world. We do not follow their styles or technologies. We follow divine order and direction. 

Africa is the hub of spirituality in the world, and Africans are spiritually-sensitive people. So the only system of government that works for us in Africa is a spiritually-ordained system. We must create this awareness among ourselves. We must stop depending on democracy and politicians to solve our problem or give us the leadership we need.

Africa needs spiritually-sensitive leaders, not tyrants. We need people who are tested and trusted in spiritual matters.

How do we go about this assignment? By first creating awareness among ourselves. We must keep talking about it and building massive awareness. The days of darkness are over. Now, it’s time for light, for progress and development. 

We are sick and tired of wicked, corrupt souls as our leaders. I recently watched the conflicts going on in many parts of Africa and my heart bleeds. We need people who have the heart of God to lead us in the will and purpose of God.

I know there are questions in your mind about how this will happen, who will elect or select these leaders, and what the criteria will be. I will discuss all of that. Stick around for updates.

We need change, and now is the time for it. We cannot wait for it—we have to make it happen. We will engage both our spiritual and physical weapons. Our spiritual weapons are prayer and the power of faith. 

Our physical weapons are our interactions and actions. We must speak out, and speak loudly. We must not be silent. We must not be patient while evil reigns. We cannot simply hope for things to get better. We must take action, and we must take it now!

People of God, let’s wake up and take our place. Let’s call on the God of heaven and earth to intervene in our affairs and bring the kingdom of darkness to an end. 

Africa will rise again. I know and I believe! If you believe with me, share this post and let’s spread the word! God bless you!

The Journey to Fulfilling Purpose And Creating A Meaningful Life

I've been around for some time, and I’ve never seen birds struggle to fly, fish struggle to swim, or roses struggle to blossom. But I’ve seen my fellow humans struggle to succeed. I’ve seen people striving hard just to make it in life.

There can be only one reason for this: we are not manifesting our gifts and true nature.

For every creature made, the Creator has placed within them what they need to thrive and succeed. It is a system built into them as part of their nature, abilities, and potentials.

As human beings, we possess all of these things. Yet, many of us have abandoned what we have and have started seeking what we don’t have. We have neglected who we truly are and have adopted false identities imposed on us by the society.

We’ve become accustomed to this new way of life—the chase for money and luxury. We’ve forgotten that life is not just about accumulating material things. And while I’m not demeaning the value of material things, I’m saying that is not all there is to life. Life is about fulfilling purpose, and everything you achieve should lead to that one thing.

If everything you have or do is not aligned with your purpose, you’re simply wasting your time. Accumulating wealth without knowing its purpose is meaningless.

Imagine someone who works hard to fuel their vehicle but refuses to drive it to a destination, or worse still, doesn’t even know where they’re going. Does that person know what they’re doing?

What’s the point of the fuel if they have no destination? That’s what many of us do: we toil day and night to make money but render it useless by doing nothing meaningful with it.

You see it often—politicians and public officials who amass riches for themselves, only to die without making any meaningful impact in the world. Their greed and selfishness lead them to take money meant for their people and use it to buy houses and yachts abroad. I wonder if they plan on being here in the next 100 years to enjoy those toys.

Your money and other resources must serve a purpose. Your actions and achievements must be driven toward a goal, and that goal is your purpose.

So today, I challenge you again: find your purpose, discover your gift, and begin to walk in this understanding.

Soon, I will put together a program that will help you discover your gifts and purpose, and you will begin to manifest them for good. Stick around for updates.

I see you making meaningful progress and achieving a new level of success. God bless you!

Embrace the Positive: Celebrating the Good People in Your Life

Have you ever been surrounded by good people in your life? Have you ever experienced the joy of having great and loving people? If you’ve ever been blessed with good people in your life, celebrate it.

I know, to a large extent, we select our friends. We select people whom we want to be with us. But there are some people you don’t select in your life. For example, your family members, your colleagues at school or work, or sometimes your roommate/housemate. For these people, they are an inevitable part of your life.

Life unfolds as we live it, and it often makes sense only when we look back. But when you're surrounded by uplifting, supportive people, they can be a light through every step. These are the ones who cheer you up, encourage you, give you the honest truth, and stand by you when you need it most. They are the ones whose presence fills your life with joy.

I’ve experienced such people in my life. I've encountered those individuals who have done amazing things for me. They’ve helped when I least expected. They’ve gone far and beyond to be of great support. 

I have good friends, people who always check up on me, even when I don’t (my bad! lolz). People who are always willing to encourage and see you do well. How amazing is that? I can’t be more grateful for having such a loving people in my life.

I’m also trying to be a good friend. I’m working on being supportive and trustworthy. I want to help whenever I can. I want to genuinely love and support people. I want to use my gifts and talents to inspire someone. It’s good to have good people in your life.

Of course, I know there are people who have a negative mindset. There are those who don’t see anything good in what you do. For such people, I say, they don’t matter. Their actions mean nothing in the matrix of your life. You are moving forward and overcoming every force of darkness.

Focus on the positive things happening in your life. Celebrate the great people in your life and let them know you always cherish and appreciate them. They are God’s special gift in your life.

Have a lovely weekend. Cheers!

The Role of Africa in the Ongoing Wars

Many people think the ongoing wars in the world do not need Africa's intervention since Africa has no military might to offer. But that would be a grave mistake because the wars in the world need intervention, and spiritual one for that matter. Africa is the hub of spirituality in the world.

There is no need to be sentimental about it. Look around, and you will understand what I’m talking about. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, and part of Africa’s strengths is spirituality.

For a long time, Africa’s spirituality has been termed as being primitive or fanatic, but that’s a wrong notion. Africa serves the world with its spiritual insights and solutions. So, the wars going on in the world now need spiritual intervention, and, of course, Africa.

As much as there is a need for dialogue and ceasefire, what brings true and lasting peace is spiritual intervention, in which Africa plays a huge role.

People who understand spiritual matters understand what I’m talking about.

“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.” – 2 Corinthians 10:3-6

Africa must take its place on the global stage. Now it’s our time. The world is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God. We have spiritual gifts and insights. We have wisdom. We bring peace and good news to the dying world.

When foreigners came to our land, we embraced and welcomed them into our homes. We are people of peace and love. Let’s take our place in the world and bring the transformation that it needs.

Let’s pray for the dying world. The world is sick, and people are killing themselves everyday. 

Even the wars we have in Africa are perpetuated by foreign evil minds. We must put a stop to this evil. We must silence the devils and destroy their wicked plans. 

Darkness cannot overcome light. As long as there is light in the world, darkness cannot prevail. And the truth will always triumph over lies.

Let’s take our place in glory and manifest our power and authority in the world. 

God bless Africa!

God bless the world!

10 Powerful Areas of Our Strength As Africans

For a long time, Africans have been seen as people of little or no value. We have been ridiculed and undervalued because our strengths have not been fully appreciated and recognized by the world. There are a few among us who have been appreciated, but not we as a people. 

In this article, I will share some of the values we possess as a people that worth celebrating. 

1. Family Values
We, as Africans, are people who hold on to family values no matter the decadence that is going on in the world. 

Our societies have long been recognized for our strong sense of family, which often extends beyond our nuclear family. It includes our extended families such as our grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles. 

In our communities, children are raised not just by their parents but by the entire community, a concept we often referred to as "it takes a village to raise a child." This extended family structure strengthens our social ties.

Moreover, studies have shown that family units in Africa are often more cohesive than in many Western societies, and this contribute to emotional well-being and stability. 

This is a special value we offer to a world that is often isolated, where many people suffer from loneliness and depression.

2. Spirituality
As Africans, we are known for our deep connection to spirituality, which plays an essential role in our daily lives. I've mentioned many times on my blog how spiritual we are as a people. 

It is our life. It is our strength. Instead of shying away from it and allowing non-Africans to demonize what we have, we should be proud and show the world its value.

We have faith. We have hope. We also have confidence in God. We believe in miracles and the supernatural. These values, and more, are what we bring to the world. We bring light and salvation to a dying world. This is a vital part of our strength.

3. Cultural Heritage
Africa's cultural heritage is rich, diverse, and deeply rooted in traditions passed down through generations. From our clothing to rites of passage to folklore, the continent’s cultural expressions are vibrant and exhilarating.

For example, the Yoruba, Igbo, Ashanti, and Maasai peoples preserve their traditional customs, attire, and ceremonies. This strong cultural heritage creates a sense of identity, pride, and unity among us, helping us stay connected to our roots even in the face of globalization.

4. Dancing Styles
African dance is second to none. It is known for its rhythmic movements, communal nature, and deep symbolic meanings. Each region in Africa has unique dances that serve various purposes—whether for entertainment, worship, or celebrations. We are known for our exceptional dance styles.

Our dance has influenced global pop culture, as seen in the popularity of Afrobeat music and dance styles worldwide. This brings us to the next point…

5. African Music
African music has long been recognized for its distinctive styles and rhythms. Our music plays a critical role in our celebrations, entertainment, and social cohesion. This is of global importance.

Afrobeats, for example, have taken the world by storm, demonstrating the global appeal of our African rhythms.

Additionally, our drumming and call-and-response singing patterns have deeply influenced genres like jazz, blues, and reggae.

6. African Arts
Our visual arts, from sculpture to beadwork, are deeply symbolic and carry social, political, and religious meanings. For instance, the Benin Bronzes are renowned for their craftsmanship and historical significance.

Our African arts have preserved history, told stories, and expressed cultural identity. Museums worldwide now showcase our arts, demonstrating the global appreciation of our continent’s creativity.

7. African Medicine
Africa is home to several herbs and roots of great medicinal value. Our traditional medicine has a long history of using herbal remedies, spiritual healing, and other natural practices to address health concerns.

For example, neem tree extracts are widely used as herbal medicine to treat malaria. Ugu leaves are used for anemia, bitter leaves for diabetes and hypertension, and so on. Many plants used by our forefathers to cure diseases are increasingly in demand, especially with the growing interest in alternative and herbal medicine in the world.

8. African Farming
Agriculture has been the backbone of our African economies for centuries. Our farmers have developed indigenous knowledge systems around sustainable farming practices, including crop rotation, intercropping, and fertilizer production.

For example, the terraced farms in some of our highlands showcase the ingenuity of our African agriculture. 

In the world today, we produce 70% of the world’s cocoa, 95% of the world’s yams, 65% of the world’s plantains, 60% of the world’s cassava, 50% of the world’s sorghum, 40% of the world’s millet, 30% of the world’s groundnuts and sweet potatoes, 25% of the world’s sesame seeds, and 12% of the world’s sunflower seeds and coffee, along with 7–8% of the world’s maize, and many more. 

Africa is endowed with good farmland and favorable climates, making it a potential food source for the entire world.

9. Sexual and Reproductive Strength
Many of our African cultures place great value on having children and building large families. Our men are strong in bed, and our women are great at nurturing children—resilient and resourceful.

Traditionally in Africa, large families are seen as a sign of wealth and blessing. In some of our cultures, having many children is viewed as a communal achievement, with extended families playing a role in raising them. 

By the way, Africa has one of the highest birth rates in the world, reflecting the importance we place on family and reproduction.

This is the value we offer the world—a great number of old and young talented people who are ready to take the world by storm and change the narrative of this generation.

10. African Beauty
As Africans, we have some of the most beautiful men and women in the world. Our skin color is incomparable—matchless and unparalleled. We have long embraced natural beauty as our way of life, and our women have turned to locally-made skincare products, which give their skin excellent and exquisite look.

Our beauty is unique, and we are proud to showcase it to the world. Many of our women have become award-winning models, and our men have excelled in bodybuilding and gymnastics. The list goes on. 

Stick around for Part 2.

The Strength in Our Numbers—Unlocking Africa’s Potential Through Its Population

I often hear about how detrimental our population is. Many have talked about the fact that we have to reduce in size so that the limited resources can go around. I don’t agree! 

Our population is our strength if we know its value.

Even if we have limited resources, it doesn’t mean resources are limited. We only need to increase our productivity because there is abundance in our land. We are never in shortage of good things. Nature has provided us with all that we need to survive and thrive on this planet.

So, reducing our population will not solve the problem; rather, it will reduce our productivity.

Let me share with you some of the benefits of our population and the fact that it’s our strength and never our weakness.

 
The Benefits of Our Population

1. Africa has the highest number of the youngest generation in the world. That means we have huge potential strength that can be converted into so many things that will foster productivity and development.

 
2. Market value: We have a rising demand for goods, services, and basic amenities.

 
3. Consumer value: We have a large consumer base. That’s an advantage. It means we have an increased number of people who can consume goods and provide a good assessment of products and services. They can also showcase products, brands, and companies. They are vast in ideas and expressions of talent.

4. Production value: A high population gives us the opportunity for increased labor availability. We have more agile people who can work and get involved in production. We can produce more goods and services.

5. More people—more problems—more opportunities—more solutions—more money—more development.

6. More people—more minds—more ideas—more innovation—more productivity—more development.

7. More people—more demand—more production—more supply—more satisfaction.

8. More people—more culture—more traditions—more diversity—more rich society.

9. More people—more differences—more conflicts—more resolutions—more agreements—more development.

The cycle never ends!

Our population is not a weakness—it is our strength. Let's embrace what we have and together build a prosperous and thriving future.
