Alhamdulillah! Today is the 7th day of Ramadan, which means we are almost done with the first third of this blessed month. Time is moving fast! Maa Sha Allah.
Now, take a moment to reflect: How have you been doing in your Ibadah so far?
- Qur’an – Have you been consistent with your recitation? How many pages or surahs have you covered?
- Nawafil (voluntary prayers) – Have you been taking advantage of Tahajjud, Duha, and Sunnah prayers?
- Sadaqah (charity) – Have you given something for the sake of Allah, even if it’s just a small amount daily?
- Dhikr & Du’a – How often do you Allah and make heartfelt supplications?
- Taraweeh – Are you attending regularly or praying at home with devotion?
- Forgiveness & Repentance – Have you been sincerely seeking Allah’s mercy and making efforts to improve?
If you feel you haven’t done enough, don’t be discouraged—there’s still time! Ramadan is a golden opportunity, and we should strive harder in the coming days to make the most of it.
Every moment in Ramadan is precious. Let’s push ourselves to increase in quality worship, seek Allah’s forgiveness, and earn His rewards while we still have the chance.
O Allah, grant us the strength to maximize our Ibadah in this blessed month. Accept our fasting, prayers, and good deeds. Forgive our shortcomings and grant us Jannah. Ameen!
[quote author=ogaemma post=133396208]He is not the first to experience that.
CAF also made Okocha believed he won the award.
Okocha was nominated three times (1998, 2003 and 2004), but his best-ever finish was second place in 1998 and 2004, while he ended up in third place in 2003.
1998 was the most painful lost.
It was obvious Okocha won the award in 1998.
But on the case of Lookman, he won it on pure MERIT.
Try next time Mr.
It was only 1998 e came second,he came third 03 and 04

Away from the traditional recurring post of "how much was your first salary", let's go a bit unusual this time around. Most people are comfortable stating the low salary they received at the early stage of their career, I hope they will replicate same now.
The big question : "How much is your current salary?" and in case you are self employed, how much was most recent salary? Let's go.
Mine is 150k. Still managing and hoping for something better

Popular Nigerian comic actor, Mr Ibu has reacted to backlashes from Nigerians over the video he made with his colleagues endorsing Bola Ahmed Tinubu for 2023 presidency, IgbereTV reports.
Recently, a number of Nigerian movie stars set tongues rolling in the online community after attending a meeting believed to be in line with ing Bola Ahmed Tinubu ahead of the 2023 general elections.
As seen in videos shared on Instagram, the movie stars in attendance include comic actor John Okafor aka Mr Ibu, rap sensation Harry Anyanwu and actress Foluke Daramola-Salako.
One video captured the moment Mr Ibu addressed his colleagues with Anyanwu also entertaining them with his rap skills. Before he took his seat, Anyanwu noted that one day Asiwaju will rule Nigeria to which his colleagues echoed a loud amen.
Reacting to the online criticisms he has been receiving after the video went viral, Mr. Ibu stated that Tinubu's campaign team only invited him as an actor and he had to play a neutral role because he is an entertainer. He stated that the visit with his fellow entertainers has nothing to do with his personal beliefs or conviction. He stated that the candidate of his choice is Atiku Abubakar who had really assisted him in the past.
