Success Story of Nigeria's Richest Woman, Folorunsho Alakija
Several rankings have acclaimed her to be the richest woman in Nigeria, and the 2020 list of Africa’s Billionaires placed her at 20th position in Africa.Folorunsho Alakija over the last decade has been widely recognised as one of the richest people in Africa. Born on the 15th day of July 1951 to a middle class family in Lagos Nigeria, Alakija has travelled the world and worked her way up to the peak.With business interest in many sectors in the economy which include oil and gas, transportation, and fashion designing, among others, she has made a name for herself.Success they say is not an easy step in the business world. It takes a lot of effort, hard work and determination to make it as a successful business man or woman. Also, only a few have been able to carve a name for themselves in gold.Mrs Alakija’s success story is very much inspiring as she gradually rose from grass to grace, coming from a polygamous household where her wealth and fame were not handed over to her on a platter of gold. She had to work tirelessly in order to pursue her dreams of being successful.As part of the game changers who has shown that women can be successful in their chosen profession, there are so many lessons to be gleaned from the story of this billionaire businesswoman and humanitarian of note.She has often shared the secrets of her success story and one thing that is worthy of note is the fact that she never fails to acknowledge God’s unseen hands in her journey. Her acknowledgment of God and reference to Him in her success journey is astounding.It pays to invest in your own growth. It is often said the the greatest investment with the best Return of Investment (ROI) is investing in oneself. Sometimes, in order to get to the next level, one has to spend time investing in one’s personal development.After quitting her job, Alakija decided to study fashion designing to learn the trade and get qualified as a designer before becoming one of the leading fashion houses of her time. In this era of job insecurity, a person can lose their job at any moment in time but owning a skill is always for a lifetime. You can’t get fired from your own skill except you decide to quit.Alakija said she was able to get to where she is now because she never backed down. In the business world you need a strong backbone to survive and you must also be ready to face huge rejection.Alakija initially had a number of rejections when she was looking to break into the competitive industry but each time she went right back. She said she was able to get to where she is now because she never gave up. In business, her persistence and resilient spirit beat the resistance of the then oil minister who eventually awarded her the oil license.Alakija went the extra mile and also challenged herself into doing things differently. She decided to go into a career that was predominantly dominated by men.There are definitely many more lessons to draw from her story and wealth of experience. The life of this great woman is a testament to every young person aspiring to be successful that women can be anything they choose to be (and be exceedingly successful) as long as their mind is made up.>

What US Wants To Do Now That Putin Has Invaded Ukraine
President Joe Biden on Thursday announced a new round of sanctions targeting Russia after its invasion of Ukraine, charging that Russian leader Vladimir Putin “chose this war” and that his country will bear the consequences of his action.The sanctions target Russian banks, oligarchs and high-tech sectors, Biden said. The United States and its allies will block assets of four large Russian banks, impose export controls and sanction oligarchs.Biden also said the U.S. will be deploying additional forces to Germany to bolster NATO after the invasion of Ukraine, which is not a member of the defense organization.The penalties fall in line with the White House’s insistence that it would look to hit Russia’s financial system and Putin’s inner circle, while also imposing export controls that would aim to starve Russia’s industries and military of U.S. semiconductors and other high-tech products.“Putin is the aggressor,” Biden said. “Putin chose this war, and now he and his country will bear the consequences.”Biden, for now, held off imposing some of the most severe sanctions, including cutting Russia out of the SWIFT payment system, which allows for the transfers of money from bank to bank around the globe, or Russia’s energy sector.Biden announced the sanctions while Ukraine’s government reported mounting casualties as Russian forces attack from the east, north and south.Biden spoke to Americans from the White House hours after holding a virtual meeting with the leaders of Britain, Canada, France, Italy and Japan. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European Council President Charles Michel, and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg also joined the meeting.The president also met with his national security team on Thursday morning in the Situation Room as he looked to flesh out U.S. moves in the rapidly escalating crisis.While Biden described the sanctions as severe, Ukrainian officials urged the U.S. and West to go further and cut the Russians from the SWIFT financial system.“We demand the disconnection of Russia from SWIFT, the introduction of a no-fly zone over Ukraine and other effective steps to stop the aggressor,” Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a tweet.The Biden administration, however, has shown some reluctance to cut Russia from SWIFT, at least immediately, because of concerns the move could also have enormous ramifications for Europe and other Western economies. Biden, answering questions from reporters, appeared to push a decision on SWIFT to European allies.“It is always an option but right now that’s not the position that the rest of Europe wishes to take,” Biden said. He also contended that the financial sanctions he announced would be more damaging to Russia.NATO member France reacts "Strangling Russia economically and financially will in the long run be stronger than any intervention," French foreign minister said. >

First Woman To Ever Become Ooni of Ife (Her Story)
According to transcribed Oral tradition, Queen Luwoo was the 21st ruler of Ife — a pioneer way ahead of her time.Ilè-Ifẹ̀ is a town in Osun state seen as the cradle and ancestral home of the Yoruba people, making any presiding ruler, the Ọọ̀ni, revered as a very powerful leader.The Ooni is recognised by his subjects as their spiritual leader and Chief Custodian of traditions. The Ooni dynasties go back hundreds of years and it was perceived that men have always occupied the revered stool.Because Nigerian ancient history was mostly passed down through oral tradition, transcribed lists of the previous Oonis differ and sometimes, contradict each other.However, most accounts have stated that a female, Ooni Luwoo, was the 21st Ooni of Ife, the supreme traditional ruler of Ile Ife. She succeeded Ooni Giesi and was succeeded by Ooni Lumobi.In some accounts, she is referred to as Lúwo Gbàgìdá, a descendant of Otaataa from Owode compound, Okerewe. She was said to have been married to Chief Ọbalọran of Ilode and became the mother of Adekola Telu, the founder of Iwo town.She was the first and only female to take the crown as Ooni after the demise of Ooni Giesi.Ooni Luwoo was a beautiful woman who took great pride in her physical appearance and that of her surroundings. For this reason, she put the whole town of Ife hard at work at keeping the whole town clean and beautiful — both men and women.She was also known to commission the unique Yoruba custom of construction of decorative pavements and open-air courtyards paved with pottery shreds. The streets of Ile-Ife were paved with quartz pebbles and broken pottery as punishment for anyone who committed an offence. The offenders were ordered to bake the clay, and afterwards use their bare hands to break it into pieces and then lay it on the floor for the queen to walk on.She was so proud and finicky that she refused to walk on the bare floor, and some of the hand-made clay tiles she walked on while she reigned are still available in parts of Ife and other parts of Yoruba land she visited while on the throne.However, she was perceived as wicked and a terror to the Yoruba people and deemed “uncontrollable” and “high-handed” by the elders of the land.After her reign ended, the council of Obas came together and vowed to never make a woman the Ooni of Ife again.The current Ooni is Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II, the 51st Ooni of Ife.>

I remembered my dad telling me I must beat his grades and records and I was laughing to myself because it looked quite impossible to me. But it inspired me to always be the best. Thank God I did.“Aside from being a focused student, I was actively involved in the Department and faculty’s football team. I taught pre-university and 100 level tutorials.“One of my biggest challenges as a student was being a student. Sitting through the conventional lectures was sometimes difficult.“My mind and body were always going, and I couldn’t wait to get out of my seat, move around, share my thoughts, and interact with my peers. I handled it by focusing all my energy on my listening and note-taking." >

Why Buhari Wants To Dump Tinubu and Handover To Jonathan
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The game plan in the seat of power is that President Buhari should not handover power to someone from the South who will be entitled to contest for two terms of 8 years. Top Aso Rock men believe the North must recover the years they lost during Yar'Adua era.So how would this play out? President Buhari recently declared that he wasn't a kingmaker, a statement sources say was directed at Bola Tinubu who's hoping that Buhari will endorse his ambition and handover to him in 2023. However, the president and his men are said to be seriously working on the possibility of handing over power to Goodluck Jonathan, a former president who is only entitled to one more tenure of 4 years. Already, campaign materials for Jonathan ahead of the 2023 campaign season are being released on social media, and expectedly these actions are causing serious discomfort in the Tinubu camp.If the plan succeeds, power will return to the North again in 2027 for another 8 years. The power forces in Aso Rock don't care if Tinubu is bruised by this move. That's their game plan. Lagos politicians are very much aware of the moves and this was part of the reason Tinubu recently declare that he was ready to fight dirty ahead of 2023.>

Billionaire Femi Otedola's Only Son
Fewa Otedola is the only son of one of Nigeria's richest men and CEO of Forte Oil, Femi Otedola. Unlike his sisters, Olawumi, DJ Cuppy and Temi Otedola, Fewa likes to keep things private. Fewa who is autistic is the only male heir to his father's billion dollar fortune. Sharing a personal story about her brother, during World Autism Day few years ago, Temi Otedola revealed how the family have coped with Fewa being autistic.  She wrote on her JTO fashion blog: "I think it’s important to first describe what it is to those of you reading who are less familiar. Essentially, autism is a social development disorder which affects the cognitive, communicative and interactive ability of the brain. People with autism struggle with heightened sensory stimulation and need a lot of attention and support from their parents, teachers and siblings to ensure they can lead the most productive and happy life possible. Raising awareness is not the main goal at this point–understanding is, and even more important–acceptance. So this Autism Awareness Day I ask for all of you, to appreciate, love on, or simply accept those living with autism.In 2004, my mum called my sisters and me into her bedroom. With the composure only a mother can have, she told us that our baby brother, Fewa, had ‘special needs’. While my sisters asked questions, all I could do was think about what this would mean for me, the already overindulged, youngest of three girls.Thankfully, my selfishness quickly wore off and Fewa quickly became the centre of our family. The role of an older sister always entails some sort of responsibility. However, the role of an older sister to an autistic sibling is a great deal more work. At first, it seemed like every day with him was a challenge, especially for my mother. I remember seeing my mum helping Fewa with simple tasks like brushing his teeth, helping him to get dressed, or feeding him lunch, with each day ultimately ending in exhaustion. Our family has been so blessed to have help from carers, but no one can deny the resilience my mother has had raising Fewa. It is the thing I most respect about her.Every day, I see him becoming more independent. Our relationship is becoming less one-sided; I can truly say that we are friends. Fewa doesn’t need anyone’s sympathy. He is the most genuine and caring person I know. This is probably why I have never seen Fewa’s autism as necessarily and totally negative, it is a unique characteristic that adds to the complexity of the person that he is.I am not naïve or unrealistic. I certainly have some gnawing worries about the future. Fewa will always need support of some kind. At age sixteen he still requires 24 hour help. I would say that the biggest misconception about autism is that people who have it are socially inept geniuses – Rain man, anyone? Yes, that is true for some autistic people, but there is a reason the official term is “autism spectrum disorder”. It is a spectrum, and it can range from children who are not able to speak at all to children who can go to normal schools.No matter what I do, I need to build my life with Fewa in mind. My parents won’t be around forever, and his care and well-being will become the responsibility of me and my sisters. It is true that consideration for Fewa will always affect the decisions I make in my life. Despite this, Fewa is by no means a burden. These worries do not reduce the immense love I have for my brother who has brought so much joy and shown me the purest form of love. To quote The Bard, “Love sought is good, but given unsought is better.” It is Fewa’s unconditional love that has shaped me into the woman I am today – a sister, a teacher, a carer and a best friend." >

Lady Marries 89yrs Old Billionaire Only To Discover He Gave Her Nothing In His Will After His Death
Here's the controversial love story of model, actress and TV personality, Anna Nicole Smith and American Billionaire oil tycoon and lawyer, J. Howard Marshall.According to Forbes, the lovebirds had previously met in a night club in Houston in 1993, and after the 89 year old Howard Marshall had dated the then 26 year old Anna Nicole for some time they eventually got married in 1994, but unfortunately for her, the wealthy man died about a year afterwards.Did it just end there? No way! Just like a popular saying puts it that, "if wishes were horses, beggars would ride," that became the immediate story of Anna. Yes, she soon discovered that her name was not included in the Will (asset sharing/allocation) left behind by the late billionaire, as everything was willed to her late hubby's son, Pierce. There's no doubt, this will definitely break the hearts of many other young ladies who might be in her position.The truth is that most people would have concluded that she's only interested in the man's wealth, hence the reason she agreed to marry him in the first place. Even Forbes reported that the Billionare's first son, Pierce, believed that Nicole was only after his dad's money, which is why he made sure she wasn't included in his father's will.Anna Nicole refused to relent, she soon filed for bankruptcy in a court of law based in California just to get sympathy from the law court. Eventually, she got the kind of  judgment she had been begging for as another court awarded her the sum of $474 million. Unfortunately for her, that judgment was never executed as the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit quashed the judgment, on the ground that the court that gave her the judgment had no right to sit on the matter for the fact that it had been previously decided in a court of competent jurisdiction. Anna died in 2007 without getting a dime from the late Billionaire's wealth.>

For faster egg production, the Chinese implanted gall glands in other animals. This was revealed in a recent study released by China on Thursday through its press media.Six cows were sampled, and by Thursday, the cows had produced several ready-to-sell eggs, as part of China's efforts to boost egg production.According to Agriculturalist Phyllis B Moses, the transfer of genes from one creature to another is a natural process that results in biological trait diversity. Moves have been made by different scientists to improve foods through genetic modification in the past. But many countries continue to refuse to accept such genetically engineered foods. Will the world accept these cow produced chicken eggs from China? Time will tell. >
