As you navigate life, find the gaps. Do not be the bottle—be the bedrock. Resilience, purpose, and grounding matter more than appearance @Omojuwa

Try to live life fully. Embrace its rhythm. Appreciate its poetry. Life offers more when we slow down enough to experience it @mukundigeorge

As I shared in my chapter: Do not let the world judge your success by how quickly you rise. True success lies in depth, not speed. Delays are not failures—they are preparation for what is to come.

Youth in Africa are not a mere statistic; they are a dynamic social force for transformation. If we’re serious about reaping the demographic dividend, we must urgently invest in skills, not just education. Talent is our most under-leveraged asset. 💬 @JMartyns
