Back when we were kids, life was beautiful. The machines came and separated us. Now, we have found our connections again. Now we can truly say, Nakupenda. #SpreadTheLove #Esther Ekpenyong #Tizzy_luv

RELATIONSHIPS Why Friendship is more important than you think "In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed." – Khalil Gibran We often prioritize and seek romantic relationships first and foremost. We also value our family bonds and tend to favor these connections. However, this can mean that we leave friendships by the wayside. And yet friendships can be very important for a good, satisfying, and meaningful life. Friendships are special because they are usually far more about positive emotions and fun than other relationships. That is not to say that friends won’t be there during the hard times, but that we tend to hang out with them when we want to. With a relative or a partner, there are usually more obligations. This means that friends can become those positive relationships that bring us joy and happiness, even when things are tough elsewhere. Secondly, friends are chosen, and as we maintain a friendship, we keep making the choice to stick with that person. It empowers us to build long and satisfying connections but let go of those that are less significant. #nakupenda #Utom58 #De_NextVerYou #Relationships

In a world overwhelmed by instant reactions, impulsive replies, and emotionally charged exchanges, the true mark of strength and emotional intelligence is not in how quickly we speak—but in our ability to pause. That brief, intentional moment of silence between stimulus and response is not emptiness; it is power. It creates space for clarity, for calm, for wisdom to surface over impulse. Whether you’re navigating a tough conversation, leading a team, or simply dealing with personal conflict, the pause allows you to respond—not react—with intention and grace. It helps you listen beyond words, consider deeper perspectives, and communicate with empathy and strength. In that silence, you regain control, disarm tension, and turn potential conflict into meaningful connection. It’s not weakness—it’s mastery. The power is in the pause. Will you use it? #Happiness #AWESOMEGOD

Enough of the transactional relationships, let's welcome humanity back to the days we connected deeply because we want to stay. #Knowledge #Makanaki

The Future of Connections There was a time when happiness was simply knowing our neighbors, laughing as we played together and gathering around shared meals. Then came social media, and for a moment, we believed it would bring us closer, reconnect us with the ones we had lost. But somewhere along the way, we drifted apart, lost in a sea of endless comparisons, measuring our worth against others. What if we could find our way back? What if we could create a world where love leads again, where unity is not just a word, but a way of life? Imagine Nakupenda — the social media of the future, where hearts connect, and no one is left behind. #Nakupenda #Knowledge #Makanaki

THE IGBO ENTREPRENEURSHIP SYSTEM - The Strategy That Built Obi Cubana Have you ever wondered … How did the Igbo people rise from losing everything after the war, to becoming one of the most entrepreneurial tribes in Africa? Let me tell you a story. So After the Nigerian civil war, the Igbos were left with nothing. According to history, people who had thousands in their accounts were only given £20. Businesses destroyed. Hope shattered. That’s how the new system treated them; broke, broken, and abandoned. They didn’t sit down and complain. They started again. From scratch. From the ground up. That's the spirit of the Igbo Chi. But they didn’t do it alone. They used a system, one powerful principle: “Never Leave Your Brother.” If you’re selling biscuits and need to buy Lipton, you go to your brother’s shop. Even if his price is a bit higher ; you still buy from him. That’s how Igbos built their own economy from inside. They called it “Onye Aghala Nwanne Ya ” - "Don’t leave your brother behind." This was more than business. It was survival. It was loyalty. It was strategy. They built communities. They trained one another through apprenticeship (Igba Boi). They lifted each other from trenches to triumph. They created chains of value - and chains of trust. And no one represents this model today better than Obi Cubana He started small - one nightclub in Abuja. But he didn’t rise alone. He surrounded himself with people he empowered , and they, in turn, empowered him. Today, many of his “boys” are millionaires, and they’re all still connected. That’s what made his mum’s burial a historic moment it wasn’t about showing off, it was about community wealth. Now His 50th birthday was a blast. From Business Men to superstars to sports players they all gathered to pay homage . You might wondering what a popular pastor was doing at the event ? He is Igbo right ? He came to pay homage to his brother who built from scratch. That’s the Igbo system. Build. Empower. Don’t leave your brother. That's why Anywhere you see an Igbo person there must be a community. That's how the Igbos grow ❤️ That's how they were able to bounce back and become the most proporous ethnic group in Africa As Obi Cubana celebrates his 50th birthday, I see more than a successful man. I see a case study of Igbo resilience, strategy, and communal growth. If you're building something today, I want you to ask yourself: Are you lifting others as you rise? Are you creating value or just chasing money? Are you building a system, or are you walking alone? Because wealth built alone is fragile. But wealth built in brotherhood is eternal. Obi Cubana didn’t just make money. He made men. He made systems. He made history. And that, my friend, is the secret of Igbo entrepreneurship. Start now to build men. #Utom58 #De_NextVerYou

WHEN YOU BECOME DISTRACTED AND LOSE FOCUS; • YOU LOSE CONFIDENCE — losing focus causes you to become unsure of yourself, your vision or your plan. • YOU LOSE CONSISTENCY — losing focus causes you to lose the time, energy and momentum necessary to fulfill your mission. • YOU LOSE CHANCES — losing focus causes you to miss out on opportunities for advancement and growth. • YOU LOSE CREDIBILITY — losing focus causes others to lose confidence in you, your abilities or your stability (resulting in an unwillingness to invest in your dream, vision or venture). • YOU LOSE CONNECTIONS — losing focus causes your relationships to gradually die from a lack of care, concern, consideration or concentration. • YOU LOSE CASH — losing focus can directly impact your finances by robbing you of a job, a career, a company or an important business deal. You cannot afford to lose focus in this season! Don’t wait for someone to “stir” you through inspiration or something to “provoke” you through obligation. Take an inventory of your life—who/what is necessary and who/what is not, who/what is draining you and who/what is sustaining you—then make the hard decisions necessary to recover your focus! Hope this made little sense? #chinosky #grace

𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲. Relationships don’t fail because love died. They fail because people got stuck in a stage and didn’t grow through it. Here’s a breakdown of the 𝟲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗮 𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽, and what each one demands from you: 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟭: 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 (𝟬–𝟯 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀) When everything feels magical — but most of it is fantasy. • Intense attraction and excitement • Constant communication and longing • Idealization: seeing them as perfect • You’re falling fast — but not deep yet Enjoy the spark, but don’t mistake it for a foundation. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟮: 𝗥𝗢𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 (𝟯–𝟲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀) The butterflies turn into bonding. • Emotional connection deepens • Affection and physical intimacy increase • Shared experiences grow • You feel “in love” Chemistry starts it, but connection sustains it. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟯: 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗖𝗞 (𝟲–𝟭𝟮 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀) Love now has a mirror — and it shows the truth. • Flaws, habits, and differences emerge • Disagreements surface • Your ability to communicate is tested • Love becomes a choice, not just a feeling This stage makes or breaks the relationship. Grow, or it cracks. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟰: 𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗔𝗖𝗬 & 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗦𝗧 (𝟭–𝟮 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀) You’re either building something solid — or drifting apart. • Emotional vulnerability increases • Deeper understanding and acceptance • Shared values and life goals become clear • Security and trust replace uncertainty Safety, not spark, builds intimacy. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟱: 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗜𝗧𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 (𝟭–𝟱 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀) Now it’s about the life you’re building, not just the love you’re feeling. • Long-term decisions are made together • Responsibilities are shared • You face life’s seasons as a team • Love feels rooted Love is not something you feel every day, it’s something you choose every day. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟲: 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗧𝗛 & 𝗘𝗩𝗢𝗟𝗨𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 (𝟱+ 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀) It’s no longer just about staying together — it’s about growing together. • Personal and relational growth • Navigating change and life challenges • Deep companionship and peace • Reinventing love in each season Great relationships evolve, they don’t stay where they started. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 You don’t need a 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽. You need two people 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲. Don’t quit at the hard parts. That’s where most love stories lose their plot. #olufaderomi #grace #RelationshipWisdom #LoveGrowth #EmotionalIntelligence #KnowTheStages #olufaderomi
