As a Yoruba boy, the language and culture taught giving respect to elders, people in positions of authority. It teaches the values of hard work and patience, and resilience. As I pondered on all these, I got reminded of the powerful Yoruba poem, "Ise ni Oogun Ise." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

Obasanjo is a rare-bred Nigerian. He is a man you cannot just ignore, friend or foe. My evaluation of him is that he is a Pan-Africanist and unapologetically Pan-Nigerian. I also found him to be a brave and down-to-heart individual. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

Time is time, and it is called time because of time. Time will always be time because we will always set time When we do, we work assiduously to meet up and be on time Each being is blessed with it Each manages his/her time To the prudent, no time is ever wasted. To the blessed souls, they keep time on time. Seldom do people prosper without being a good steward Of time, which is a universal gift to all. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

Almost every word of MLK eventually turned out to be quotable quotes. One could mentally catch his energies during public speaking in the air. His passion for inclusive America was clear and indisputable. Moreover, he was so compassionate that he identified with struggling Americans. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

Grassroots mobilization and the coming together of the leaders of thought, discussions, and conversations are necessary ingredients in nation-building. For Nigeria to move forward, those must be employed as soon as yesterday, and all finger-pointings must stop. This episode is the 1st in the series of Thoughts on Nigeria. So please, listen and help share and let's double up on the conversation and move the country forward. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

Alas! This time and season of the year, like every other year, is for joy and merriment. Well, rightly so, if only to celebrate the Prince of Peace in righteousness and holiness. We know that we are at a time when folks buy, give and exchange gifts. But, most often than not, even corporate bodies would shut down and allow people to go on vacation to spend time with friends and family, are all these for the Prince of Peace? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

There are excellent people in this world today that we take for granted and fail to celebrate while they are alive. In the Global Perspective initiative, I intend to identify great people that have impacted lives in unlikely and unnoticeable ways and commemorate them. But, most importantly, when they are alive, they can hear us say good things about them, not in a sycophantic way but as a matter of fact. So, for one reason or the other, I felt led to celebrate Chief Fabiyi. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

I join millions of people to celebrate the life and time of Colin Luther Powell, a man I watched with a keen interest for more than twenty-five years. General Powell was among the individuals that I watched, followed, and paid attention to even though at a far distance. But unfortunately, I could not meet him until his death, just like I painfully could not meet Senator John McCain. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

Knowledge Life helps people in their quest for self-discovery to discover who you are and your hidden potentials and capacities that you did not imagine you ever had. The talents you never knew you had. The impediments to self-discovery have always been insecurity, self-doubt, low self-esteem, and looking for an external approver. In addition, a lack of self-development at every stage of human endeavor can also be an impediment. So, for self-discovery, seeking knowledge, and getting an education, I mean continuous education by reading widely and moving from known areas to unknown ones. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

In the last episode, I talked about Knowledge life. However, further thoughts on the topic bring me to declutter. Knowledge life should lead to people getting rid of unimportant things in life, which if not removed could lead to a burden, unnecessary weight, load, and a big distraction to a good and quality life. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

The Global Perspective initiative is about knowledge-based life. Recent global events with false and incorrect information going around like wildfire with millions believing are troubling. My thinking is that when people have the necessary information, they will tend to ignore falsehood. Although no one in this world can be self-sufficient in knowledge, people start learning from birth. Recent research suggests that babies begin to absorb language inside the womb during the last ten weeks earlier than previously determined (Mann, 2013). --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

In clear terms, accent gives everyone away. Although some people have the gift and the ability to change how they talk flawlessly to adapt to the host community or environment, I do not have such a gift. Accents are inherent and primarily affected by where one grows up. Merriam Webster dictionary defines accent as "a distinctive manner of expression: such a way of speaking typical of a particular group of people and especially of the natives or residents of a region." So, it then means that it has nothing to do with intellect, wisdom and makes some superhuman or less. In other words, one should expect various accents from place to place, country to country, tribe to tribe, as it is just another tongue that is different and peculiar to people. And so, next time we meet people who talk in another way than us, let us keep in mind that the way they sound unique and different is the same way we sound foreign to them. Therefore, we need to accept one another's uniqueness and let that not make us fear, suspect, or misjudge ourselves because it is just another tongue. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

In 1985, 36 years ago, a group of musicians in the U.S. came together to produce a single album called the U.S.A. for Africa "We are the World." The seven-minute video shook the World as it suddenly became famous and went viral using today's language. However, that is not the critical thing and lesson to learn fast forward to 2021. My goal in the Global Perspective Podcast initiative is to relate the principle behind "We are the world" and encourage people to reset civil engagements and conversations in a way that will move humanity forward and peace to be the center of our political discussion. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

Today, 20 years ago, America came under heavy attack by some extremists with the parochial, unholy, and dangerous belief system that killing others is the way to please their maker. It has been a long 20 years after, and it is a blessing to be alive today. I stand with millions of fellow Americans to honor the memory of those who lost their lives directly or indirectly due to 9/11. America is still in the healing process. In this episode of the Global Perspective podcast, I will be talking about how we can continue to heal. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

My goal on the podcast is to lend my voice to lower the high temperature of social-political ideologies that have assumed extreme dimensions where extremism seems to gain followers. Moderate voices appear weak and insignificant to the extent that good people take back seats and withdraw their voices from global issues because moderation seems unprofitable. We need to bring civility, decency, and thoughtfulness back to civil discussions and conversations.

The goal is to lower the high temperature of social-political ideologies that have assumed extreme dimensions where extremism seems to gain followers and moderate voices appear weak. As a result, good people take back seats and withdraw their voices, and it must stop. Instead, we need to bring civility, decency, and thoughtfulness back to civil discussions and conversations. Also, people of we would like to hear from people who have rich and diverse backgrounds. Rich and varied experiences help individuals to bring a broader perspective into play in one's worldview. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oluranti-ladapo/support

We live in a world today where the voices of moderation, civility, and decency find it challenging to gain a reasonable audience and acceptance. As a result, we see moderate politicians, leaders, and people of good intentions throwing in the towel and quitting prematurely because of frustrations and a sense of been lonely.
