At the time when famous social media influencer, Aunty Adunni, moved from Nigeria to the United States, she probably didn’t expect she would ever add ‘relationship expert’ to her resume. But now, thanks to Facebook. Lady Adunni, with her ‘Real Talk With Aunty Adunni Live’, has stepped into the role of a celebrity speaker on social media, having no prior experience other than the opportunity she had had as an independent career woman, counseling families and fixing shaky relationships. It was a strange terrain when she started, she confessed during this interview, but one that she had no choice than taking seriously and in which she soon became a star. 
A widow and mother of three beautiful children, Aunty Adunni who remarried barely three months ago, shared her journey through life; the thorns and roses, and more. Excerpts…
 


I Love Encouraging People To Be A Better Version of Themselves
-US based celebrity blogger, Aunty Adunni
 
Tell us your experience airing the first show on social media.
I had anxiety doing my first live show on social media and I remember I had to write my points down before going on air.
At what point did you move abroad and what were the circumstances that encouraged you to relocate?
I moved abroad at a point in my life when I wasn’t fully prepared and ready for it. But today I have no regrets. The circumstances are private.
There are show hosts who run gossips or random social topics. What is the focus of your own show?
⁠The focus of my show is largely and mainly about the entity of the family; the mother, father and, most importantly, the children, who are our future.
You are focused mostly on relationships; do you do that based on personal experience or it is just a thing you had decided to do from the inception?
I never set out to be in the public, but my personal experience and experience of many other people that I have had to counsel at a point in life, motivated me to do it. It’s a kind of therapy for me. I love encouraging people and love to see people happy.
Tell us about yourself; nationality, state, family, educational background and how your show name, Aunty Adunni, came about.
I am a wife and a mother. I was born, raised and schooled in Nigeria. I came from a polygamous family. I am from Oyo State but I was born and raised in Lagos State. Adunni happens to be my oriki, I added Aunty to it so the younger ones will see me as a big aunty they can confide in if need be. I have counseled quite a number of them who see me as big sister.
Watching you and your husband coming on the show is fantastic and real; tell us about your relationship.
I met my husband who I will simply address as Sir K, on Facebook, I didn’t take him serious when he approached me, but he made it clear that he wanted marriage from the onset. I tried to run but his charms were too strong to resist (laughs). To the glory of God, we got married in October 2023. I was a widow and he was a divorcee then.
You are a professional in other field, tell us about it; and what inspired you to start blogging?
I am actually a business owner, and like I said earlier, I love encouraging people and that motivated me to be a speaker on social media. if you watch most of my videos, they are all about people striving to being a better version of themselves.
You seem to have made great success of what you do, share with us some of your achievements so far.
My greatest achievements is being able to take care of my three children as widow, giving them quality education and also bringing them into USA as legal residents. My focus has been to see them have better life than me and this I see as the greatest and most fulfilling task of my life.
What is the greatest lesson life has taught you?
Hmmmm! life has taught me that life will not be what we want it to be most times.
What is your fashion routine like?
I don’t really have a fashion routine, weather in USA dictates what I wear. But I stick to African wears a lot during summer.
How do you give back to society in terms of philanthropy?
I do give cash regularly on my page. The last one I did, some people got as much as N40,000 each. I also help widows. I along with two others, have had to contribute over a million Naira to print note books to give to students in Nigeria as well.
If you could go anywhere else for vacation outside your current base with your family, where would that be?
That would be Bahamas.
What is your honest advice for young women about life and relationship?
I will advice them to be mindful of how they live and enjoy life because life has a way of coming back to either hunt you or face you. My question is, if your life is played back for you, will you be proud of yourself? Also, I  will tell them to make sure they add value to their lives by doing legitimate things to earn money. About relationship; I would say, don’t be in relationship because you need money.

A coalition of 15 civil society groups in the country has named the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, SAN, as the minister of the masses.

The CSOs, under the auspices of the Civic Room for Good Governance said of all the ministers, Keyamo’s policies and programs have positively impacted ordinary Nigerians the most.

In a statement signed by its national coordinator,
Assoc. Prof. Thomas Uzah, the groups said Keyamo has demonstrated a genuine and deep understanding of the challenges faced by ordinary citizens.

The appraisal comes days before President Bola Tinubu’s first anniversary in office.

Highlighting some of the pro-masses policies of Keyamo, Uzah said the mandatory e-tag system for VIPs shows the minister means business.

He said not only would this improve revenue for upgrading decaying airport infrastructure, but it shows a sincere commitment towards the plight of the citizens.

Uzah also applauded the introduction of helicopter landing levies as another game-changer in line with global best practices and cost recovery measures.

He noted that Keyamo noticed a lacuna in the lower airspace where helicopter operations are dominant and took advantage for the overall good of Nigerians.

While commending the minister for supporting the growth and sustenance of local airlines, Uzah added that he has continued to advocate for fair pricing for Nigerian travellers.

“Today, we celebrate a leader who has demonstrated unwavering commitment to the growth and development of our nation’s aviation sector. Festus Keyamo’s tireless efforts and visionary leadership have brought hope and transformation to an industry that was once plagued by inefficiencies and stagnation,” the statement said.

”He has shown unwavering commitment to prioritizing the needs of the masses. His tireless efforts to implement policies and programs that benefit the most vulnerable members of our society are truly commendable.

“ Under Keyamo, the Aviation leadership has demonstrated a genuine understanding of the challenges faced by ordinary citizens, and his responses have been swift and effective. The ministry’s initiatives have brought hope and relief to countless individuals and communities.

“We particularly appreciate his commitment to inclusive decision-making processes; support for the masses; efforts to address poverty and inequality as well as dedication to transparency and accountability.

“It is no longer business as usual. The elites or VIPs must now pay for e-tickets like the ordinary Nigerian. Commendable! The Minister said it is unacceptable for wealthy Nigerians to receive free passage while ordinary citizens pay full fees.

“The Minister also charged NAMA to live up to its responsibilities, to enable them to show strong support for the growth and sustenance of local airline businesses whilst holding them to the highest international standards in the aviation industry. But he is not discarding our foreign partners.

“The Minister stressed the importance of fair pricing for Nigerian travellers and wants foreign airline to consider offering low airfares to ensure parity with the cost of tickets in neighbouring countries.

“His actions to address long-standing challenges, such as flight delays and cancellations, and initiatives to enhance safety and security are praiseworthy. His vision for a world-class aviation sector is inspiring, and we are confident that under his leadership, Nigeria will become a hub for aviation excellence in Africa.

“The Minister’s efforts have positively impacted the lives of many Nigerians and foreign travellers, promoting safety, efficiency, and economic growth in the aviation sector.

“In all of these, he has ensured a strict compliance with safety regulations and the continuous upward movement of Nigeria’s rating by the ICAO.

“His dedication to the well-being of the masses is a shining example of leadership and public service. We, therefore, pledge to continue working closely with his ministry to ensure the successful implementation of these policies and programs.

“We urge Mr Keyamo to persist in their dedication to the welfare of the people, and we encourage all stakeholders to join forces in supporting these vital efforts”.

Lady, Increase Your Capacity”: *Apostle Suleman’s Tips for Becoming A Good Wife

Lady, Increase Your Capacity”:
*Apostle Suleman’s Tips for Becoming A Good Wife*

_Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She’s more precious than rubies. Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life._ Proverbs 31;10-31

It’s wise to prepare for marriage during the single period. Servant of God and general overseer of the Omega Fire Ministries (OFM) worldwide, Apostle Johnson Suleman, lectures during a Sunday service recently. Speaking to a large congregation that attended the weekly programme, the firebrand cleric pontificates that the skills a lady brings to her relationship endures as the most influential factor on the success of her future union.

“As a lady, you want to get married now; you’re waiting for God to bring you a partner, this is the time to be learning everything you can learn. So that when that man marries you he’s not marrying a wife, he’s marrying an industry,” Apostle Suleman counsels.

The man of God’s sermon indicates that, if a lady has a desire to keep a perfect house with her know-how, her future marriage will endure. Singleness, the lecture specifies, is a training ground for a lady that looks to marry and enjoy her matrimony. Apostle Suleman instructs; “Learn a skill so that when he says do this you say I can do it, when he says sew, make hair you say I can make it. And when he asks “what can you not do?” You answer him, “my husband, I was prepared for you”.

 

The Restoration Apostle alerts ladies to make the most of their single period, as God knows what the future marriage will demand of them. God gives opportunities each day to prepare single ladies for what lies ahead, the lecture says, and if a woman is mentally and emotionally prepared while single, getting adapted to joining lives with her future husband will not only be easier, but it will also help cultivate a successful and lifelong union.

 

“My lady, increase your capacity. If you have not learned any skill, go back and learn. That’s why it is said that the biggest problem of the 21st Century graduates is their refusal to learn. Please, learn and relearn. Even me, I do certificate courses online…”

 

Using his personal experience even as an established figure, Apostle Suleman guides single ladies to strive to have a worth and live on their own when they are married. He charges them to have financial independence which, he affirms, goes a long way in making sure they are truly ready to be married. This, the lecture shows, is one of the factors that make for a good wife and how well to prepare for marriage.

 

Entering into the institution of marriage, the lecture concludes, is a profound and transformative journey. For women, the preparation for this lifelong commitment involves self-reflection and personal growth, thus setting goals for learning and relearning new skills helps to boost a lady’s well-being and personal fulfillment.
