POPULARITY
FEATURES ON FHF, TODAY By Ayodele Ayetigbo After sharing Pa Ayanbeku's happy birthday greetings with fhf, BG's Christian prayer tracts caught my eyes, hence a muse for this feature story. None of us can ever be anti God, anti-Christ or anti Religion, nor anti-politics, for politics, know it or not, is life. Ditto religion being a particular way of life. But here at FHF back slash US AFRICAN VOICE publications (USAV), our written constitution says that like Nigeria and the US, we believe in secularity and that religion should not be worn on our sleeves. Nothing wrong in being a Moslem or Christian, but violating written constitution always leads to backlash. Here, every member is expected to be an AP, meaning you have right to speak out anytime a member is in violation of our written law. But do members care? No. If they did, they would not be silent each time they see a member treating any aspect of our laws with impunity. As said severally, if spiritual feature that carries a title with your byline attached, there is no problem. But when you are forwarding unbylined religious tracts others may find offensive, then we have problems. People who truly believe in constitution as sacrosanct document would speak out to tell you STOP. When you keep violating and nothing happens, that means we have lost control. It means a member is acting superior than the rest of the honorable members of the assembly. There are other ways of getting your beliefs across in a secular way to be inoffensive to others who have different faiths. Religion definitely is an opium of the masses. So, let's keep it crispy. Scroll on up. I saw my Ayanbeku birthday post. Then Sogo Akinleye's forwarded COVID19 onslaught in Lagos State. Then Akinyele's forwarded: "THIEVES DISGUISED AS MEDICAL PERSONEL". Then BG forwarded Video to get open after features on fhf, TODAY. Scrolling up. Take the 5th on BG's forwarded lit. Enough said. Scroll up. Bunmo Omoogun forwarded "Headline April 22 headlines from Nigeria's Major Newspapers" leading with NATION as in "Buhari urges judiciary to decongest prisons" among others. Scroll up Yinka Adeyemi's forwarded "Uganda President KAGUTA MUSEVENI warns against people misbehaving during this COVID-19 period." to continue with a presidential quote: "God has a lot of work, He has the whole world to look after. He cannot just be here in Uganda looking after people who don't want to obey simple instructions..." Yinka, you an old pro. Please teach our Young Turks how this game is played, minus occasional excesses. I am guilty too. I agreed 100 percent with Museveni. You are a blessing. I tried to get non emotional. Bring Asins, baba onirungbon funfun omo Fagbenle, Segun Adeyemi, Sonala Olumhense, Lai Mohammed to join US FHF to get info direct from the horse's mouths. You deserve higher post at the corridor of powers you are no stranger to. Thanks for you. Scrolling up. Yinka's forwarded FFK: The Spy Who Fooled Us By Dr. Bolaji O. Akinyemi. Looks very interesting. To open later. Scroll up. Iyabo Falae, NY, Yinka Adeyemi, Yinka, Yinka, Yinka and the forwarded Dele Ayeni. Now I can pause to give my commentary. On power, power does not concede to no one. It is your contributions in life that ultimately give you power. FHF is a public wall, a platform free people can come to in order to exchange ideas. See what Musseveni, Ugandan president reportedly said about God and US Africans. God is so busy with not only our BPE, but about the Universes and all that is and can ever be. Now my own report. After finishing functions in my broadcast studio, wore my mask, got in campany's BMW to look after Mercedes E430 and Volks Wagon Passat. Was worried both might have been towed away by the city for violations. No tags. Here it is rule of law. No Oba, Ijoye, Obi, Emir is above the law. Once you got caught in violation, then you pay. Anyhow, the benz was there. A break. Relief. But Volks, gone with the wind. These Ameri --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ayodele-ayetigbo/support

Young Bolaji O was a shy child in Nigeria when he fell in love with Spider-Man comic books and the hopeful power of storytelling. Fast forward to him having children of his own. In addition to reading them books, he also made up stories for them. His wife was always encouraging him to write them down, and after being laid off from his job, he began to do so. Bolaji O is the founder of Brave Little Heroes Media, a publisher of children's books and mobile games. He specializes in writing humorous and uplifting stories for brave little heroes. We talked a lot about the familiar topic of needing books to serve as both mirrors and windows. He tries to make sure that every one of his superheroes and books keeps this need in mind, especially when he sets a story in a country that he might not personally know a lot about. He always tries to include lessons that kids can take away beyond his story. I promised on the podcast that I’d share a link here to my friend’s movie Lemonade that shares stories of people finding inspiration after being laid off. You can also watch the full Lemonade: Detroit online if you wish. Chatting with Bolaji O is an injection of positive energy! Swing by Brave Young Heroes to learn more about him, his over fifty positive kid superhero books, and his special school visits.
Mashup Episode – Show Notes In this episode of Diversity Dad, Jama’l takes excerpts from past episodes of 2015, sharing quotes from his guests and adding his own insights to help listeners be the best they can be, in fatherhood and life. Bolaji O., is the CEO of Bravepreneur Parents Academy. He shares with listeners the wisdom of Steve Jobs, where he explains that by looking forward, it’s very difficult to know the stepping stones to your destination. However, by looking backwards at the events and experiences in your life, you’re able to see how everything that has happened actually "connects the dots" and gets you to where you are presently, and are heading. Jay Forte of the Greatness Zone stresses the importance of being aware of who you are. He says that it’s a requirement for all of us to get comfortable with this and recommends that we created a "personal board of directors" ;people who care and love you – period. Michael Anthony Duncan pulls a lesson from The Cosby Show, and talks about an episode where Bill Cosby helps a new dad. To do so, he tells the new father "whatever you do, you’re going to be a hero to your kid." This serves as a reminder to do your best, at all times, and don’t worry if you’re not perfect. Cedric Hameed says his biggest obstacle as a dad is wondering if he could actually do it or not. He says that not having enough examples of strong fatherhood, and information, gave him a feeling of security that he had to overcome.
