The Tale of Mr. Segun Anozie: A Story of Duty, Love, and the Battle for Balance.

In a bustling city, where dr eams often collide with harsh realities, there lived a man named Segun Anozie. A father, a husband, and a man who bore the weight of providing for his family, not just in the physical sense but with every ounce of his being. Every day, as he navigated the chaotic streets in his humble car, he carried more than just passengers. He carried the hopes of his children, the dreams of his wife, and the unyielding pressure to protect and provide for those he loved most. Then one day, fate brought a stranger into his life—Asherkine, a well-known Digital content creator, influencer, and philanthropist. What started as a simple transaction—a ride to the mall—turned into an unexpected blessing. Asherkine, moved by Segun’s sincerity and dedication, decided to give him a gift that most would see as a his normal gesture. But for Segun, it was more. As he carefully selected items (rice and TV) for his wife and children, he wasn’t just shopping; he was trying to fulfill hi

Award of recognition.

Today was a day of unexpected surprises and heartfelt gratitude as I found myself on the receiving end of an award from the non-governmental organization I volunteer for, the Refuge of Life Foundation. Under the esteemed leadership of Mr. Bolarinwa Olabode, the Executive Director, the organization has been tirelessly dedicated to its mission, and it was an honor to be recognized as the long-standing and most supportive staff member. The moment of recognition came amidst my duties as the moderator of the organization's 7th-anniversary event, where esteemed panelists from the media, security sector, and academia gathered to discuss pressing security matters. As I diligently called upon the awardees from the list provided, little did I know that I would soon find myself among them. With a humble heart, I watched as Mr. Olabode took the microphone from my hand, announcing a special surprise for an unsuspecting recipient – me. The emotions that surged within me were indescribable as my

The OAP Man

It was a moment I had dreamt of since childhood, and finally, I found myself stepping into the bustling corridors of Fresh FM, ready to embark on my first-ever experience in a live radio program. The excitement bubbled within me as I took in the sights and sounds of the radio station, knowing that I was about to be a part of something truly special. As I entered the studio, I was greeted by the friendly faces of Bolarinwa Olabode who happens to be a friend and leader in the world of humanitarian service; SnowBaba and Romeo, the hosts of the show. Their warm smiles put me at ease, despite the nervous anticipation swirling in my stomach. This was it – my chance to contribute to a discussion on a topic close to my heart: deal breakers in marriage during an economic crisis. Taking my place on the panel alongside Bolarinwa Olabode, Ponder, and Rowland Reevs, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and gratitude for the opportunity. Bolarinwa Olabode, the one who had linked me up with

A courtesy and advocacy visit to the commissioner of Police in Osun

In the state of the living spring, where the heartbeat of community engagement resonates, our team from Refuge of Life Foundation embarked on a significant advocacy visit to the Commissioner of Police. Part of the delegation was a charismatic Program Officer (my humble self), deeply committed to governance, leadership, civic engagement, and community health. Leading the delegation was the esteemed Executive Director, Mr. Bolarinwa Olabode, whose vision propelled the NGO towards impactful initiatives. Two dedicated volunteers rounded out the group, passionate about creating positive change in their community. Our mission was clear: to strengthen the bond between the NGO and the state's security apparatus. As we stepped into the Commissioner's office, we were not just faces but ambassadors of a noble cause. The air was filled with anticipation as we aimed to acquaint the new sheriff with our foundation's ongoing endeavors. Our present project took center stage—an initiative a

Never to be an Almajiri again.

Life as an almajiri in Kano was very tough. I could still remember how we went about in tens begging for alms and food. It’s really not a life anyone should live. I lived it years ago and could still tell exactly how it hurts; the memory of it and the hellish experiences we had  to bear. Almajiri life isn’t a life. It’s like being dead alive. I lived that life. I was ten when I decided to remove the cloak of destitution and face life squarely. It still remains the turning point in my life and the wisest decision I’d ever taken. I could still remember vividly what led me to take such a decision one afternoon. It was at Sabon Titi Kano. We were nine in number. We had trekked all the way from Bida Road. Ali, my best friend was saying something about how very unfair it was that girls were not allowed to  wander about begging as boys did. He said something about girls being lucky and fortunate because they were not subjected to the demeaning life that we lived. “But you don’t have to think
