👑 The day I called a king “Daddy”… 😂

The first time I ever met a king… let’s just say I broke all the royal protocols. 😂

I was an undergraduate on research work, and part of the requirement was to seek the king’s permission and gather some history of the area.

So, after the usual “Kabiyesi ooo” and respectful kneeling, I stood up confidently, sat down… and addressed the king as Daddy! 😂

Blame it on my English/Yoruba combo flow—I was vibing, and the king was nodding along.

Midway into our discussion, one of his aides couldn’t take it anymore:
“Eh, young lady, you don’t sit to address a king. And you certainly don’t call him Daddy!”

That was my cue to quickly adjust, apologise, and switch gears.

But here’s the twist—the king wasn’t offended. He was actually enjoying my gist like a proud father. I saw the fatherly side of royalty that day, and it stuck with me.

👉 Have you ever met a king before? How did it go?

🚨 Parents, stop using your kids to chase your unfinished dreams!

I stumbled on a post that made me pause… and I could relate.

Why do some parents try to relive their unfulfilled dreams through their children?
Why rush a child through life—skipping classes, forcing “double promotions,” and making them graduate years ahead of their natural pace?

I’ve seen the outcome firsthand. Many of these students enter the university too early, armed with certificates but lacking emotional maturity. The pressure hits, and suddenly the cracks begin to show.

One story still shocks me:
A father pushed his son through primary school with back-to-back double promotions. By SS2, the boy was already writing WAEC. Admission secured—at just 14. But on paper, his father “upgraded” him to 16. Biologically 14, officially 16.

But here’s the bitter truth—life is not a sprint.
Dear parents, let your children breathe. Don’t suffocate them with your ambitions. Guide them, support them, create the right environment for growth—but please, don’t fast-forward their lives to fulfill your lost years.

Children are not trophies. They are humans.
And growth, real growth, cannot be rushed.

Once again, let the children breathe.

When Education is Undervalued: A Case of Nigerian Lecturers!!!

I was casually scrolling the streets of Facebook when I stumbled on a chart that made me pause…
It was a salary comparison of professors across African countries. Guess what? Nigeria sat comfortably at the bottom. 🤦🏽‍♂️

An average professor here earns less than $366 monthly (that’s under $4,400 a year). Meanwhile, Botswana pays $1,661 and South Africa—sitting at the top—pays $4,789 monthly. In fact, what a South African professor earns in one month is almost the entire annual salary of a Nigerian professor. Lord have mercy!

And then we wonder why the brightest brains are “japaing”? My brother, my sister… can you blame them? Unless you’ve got a deeper and higher purpose to fulfill, you’ll sprint out of this system.

The truth? Education in Nigeria is grossly underfunded. Our educators are treated like afterthoughts. Welfare? Practically nonexistent.

Note, the salary analysis on the chart is for a professor o.....the so-called “apex". We've not talked about Assistant Lecturers, Lecturer I & II etc.

One day, I truly hope we’ll wake up, review salaries, and reward teachers and lecturers the way their sacrifices deserve. Until then… it is well.your Favourite Academic TownPlanner

“Stuck? Think you’ve gone too far to improve or start again? Read this before you give up.”

✨Happy New Month, My People! 💕💕💕

The year is quietly sprinting to the finish line.

But let me drop one big lesson I’ve carried from the past year: “You’ve never gone too far to improve… or even start all over again.”

Sounds simple, right? Yet many people get trapped here — stuck, because they think it’s “too late.” Neither moving forward, nor going back. Just… stuck.

Let me tell you about the woman who redefined this for me — my Mum.

She had her NCE back in the day when that could kickstart a career. But life demanded sacrifice: raising six children, building a home, putting dreams on pause.

Years later, when the chance came to study for a degree at OAU Ife, she was told: “Madam, you need Biology at O-level.”
Guess what? She didn’t stop. In 2005, she registered for NECO. And here’s the plot twist — she wrote it with her first daughter. Yep, me! 😃

Picture this: A woman in her mid-40s, mother of six, rocking her school uniform, sitting in front of her daughter in the exam hall, writing with so much dignity and determination. She passed. She got admitted. And five years later, she graduated with a stunning CGPA of 4.34 — the best in her set! 🎉

Her story screams one truth: As long as you are alive, you’re not stuck. You can rise. You can grow. You can move.

So here’s my wish for you: A September filled with progress — spiritually, physically, academically, and beyond.
