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 aimed at alleviating the burden of JAMB exam fees for 50 indigent students in the state. The Commissioner listened attentively, recognizing the profound impact such efforts could have on the lives of young minds striving for education.

With the ice effectively broken, the team transitioned to discussing future endeavors. We unveiled our upcoming event, a groundbreaking round table talk. This event, a melting pot of perspectives, would bring together security operatives, media personnel, and government officials to dissect pressing security matters affecting not only the state but the entire country.

As the Commissioner nodded in agreement and responded in affirmative, a palpable sense of collaboration filled the room. The synergy between our NGO and the police force was not just maintained but fortified, promising a harmonious partnership for the betterment of the community we both served. In that moment, the seeds of change were sown, and the Refuge of Life Foundation continued to be a beacon of hope, lighting the way towards a brighter and more secure future.

7 Medical Doctors died along Abuja-Kaduna Road

#NMA-Ekiti-7:  Dr. Dele Atiba gives a life account after surviving a ghastly motor accident that took the lives of 7 members of Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) Ekiti Branch. This date  (24/04/2016) has stuck to my memory like it’s super glued to my frontal lobe since last year.  It was a Black Sunday! Many lives were lost. Dreams cut short. Aspirations thwarted. Children became orphans and wives turn to widows.  I dont think there is nothing that can erase it as long as I live. As a survivor, scars of bodily injuries abound, emotional trauma lingers and psychological trauma persists. The Ekiti Branch of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) delegates to the Annual Delegates Meeting of 2016 in Sokoto had a ghastly motor accident along Abuja-Kaduna road at about 4:30pm in the afternoon. Thirteen lives  12 doctors and their driver wee in the bus. The rear tyre got burst, the bus somersaulted severally, and some were thrown out of the vehicle  six died o...

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...
