2023 – Towards a Team of Bricks & Mortar
Those of us who have been on this journey for a while will know that in the early days, one of the most repeated values was “the work comes first” – I don’t regret saying that then (as I believe values need to evolve with the times) – but this year, it’s fair to say that is no longer the case. The work is still very very important, but not as much as the people.

Ekiti Gubernatorial Polls

It would be an understatement to say that the race is a tight one. Who do you think stands a better chance? SDP’s Olusegun Oni or APC’s Abiodun Oyebanji? #Viisaus #2023Elections #EkitiState #FixNigeria #SDP #APC #PDP
