A Must Read: If You Know You Are Brilliant, Please Step To The Front



This story will inspire a lot of students who battles with phobia. We should all know that we there's a king that lives inside us.

Stepping forward doesn't portray you were brilliant, but boldness makes you become.

Narrating how these young folk conquered  fears and began to exhibit leadership potential.

According him; "When I got to JSS1, I wasn’t too brilliant like that, but I had been an A student since primary school."

On our first day at school, a teacher came into the class and asked who the class monitor (class rep) was, but there was nobody.  

So he asked a simple question:  

"If you know you are brilliant, please step to the front."

The whole class kept quiet. If you dropped a pin, it would sound like a bomb.  

Nobody accepted that they were brilliant, and nobody came out.  

So I stood up and walked to the front.  

Omo, it took a lot of courage for me to do that, new environment and all, but I did it.  

I knew I was brilliant. At least, I had been coming 3rd in my primary school.  

Then one other guy also stepped out.  

The teacher then asked us a question. I can’t remember exactly what it was, but it was a mathematical question.  

The other guy answered but got it wrong. When I answered, I got it right.  

I think I just guessed the answer, and it turned out to be correct.  
And that was how I was made the class representative.  

I served as class rep from JSS1 till the end of SS3, and I was later chosen as the Head Boy.  

That was how my leadership journey started, and today, I can count a lot of things I’ve achieved because of that exposure.  

Here’s the lesson I want you to learn:  

1. BE BOLD

There were a lot of students more intelligent than I was, but the difference was that I was bold, and that was how I was made a leader.  

Many of you have great abilities, but you are too scared and too shy. That’s why people who are not as good as you are getting better opportunities.  

It is not humility to hide your ability and brilliance.  
The world only rewards courageous people.  

2. HAVE HIGH SELF-ESTEEM

Stop thinking low of yourself because what you have is enough to take you to the king’s palace.  

Some of you reject compliments.  
If someone says, "Ahh, you look beautiful," you’ll be the first to downplay yourself.  

Menh, I am intelligent, and I am not scared to say it.  
Wherever I stand to speak, people must feel me because I have what it takes. 

Stop thinking less of yourself.  

If they are looking for a volunteer to be a leader, stand up and accept it.  

 You have what it takes.  

Stop thinking small!  

I I MOSES

BREAKING: PDP Bleeds in Oriade: Commissioner Loses 14 Party Leaders to Wole Oke in Home Ward

In a significant political shift, 14 grassroots leaders, including prominent women and youth coordinators from Ward 11, covering Ijeda and Iloko in Oriade Local Government Area of Osun State, have resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged allegiance to Hon. Wole Oke’s growing political camp in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The mass resignation, formalized in a jointly signed letter, marks a deepening crack within the PDP structure in Oriade, as key mobilizers abandon the party over what they describe as years of marginalization, poor internal democracy, and a lack of direction. Their defection is also seen as a major boost to Wole Oke’s political momentum within the APC, following his recent and controversial departure from the PDP. “We are grateful for the opportunities and experiences we had as PDP members,” the group stated, “but the party no longer reflects our values or aspirations. We believe in Hon. Wole Oke’s leadership and vision, and we are proud to...

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
