The most important thing in this scenario is that Afghanistan women will be free.
FOR WOMEN ONLY: you wake up tomorrow and there are only WOMEN left in the world. no more men. what’s the first thing you do?

Health is not separate from politics. The decisions made by elected leaders shape how much is invested in healthcare, how health workers are supported, and whether quality care is within reach. As Nigeria moves towards the 2027 elections, health must remain part of the issues citizens consider at the ballot box. Know the issues. Demand accountability. Vote with health in mind. #Vote4HealthNaija

Good thing we don't go together🤣 , I love my nose . And why are you on GETTY studying my features anyway ? You don't think that's weird ?😩
Unpopular opinion: Treasure Wilson needs a nose job badly! That honker is GINORMOUS! Her shit is like MJ in the Wiz. Treasure needs to holla at Kelly Rowland's doctor and her face would be much easier to look at.

If there’s nothing better than this, then why aren’t men staying at home with the kids? If it’s truly the greatest privilege, why do so many men treat being the primary parent like a punishment? Maybe the ‘privilege’ is having someone else do it.
Be honest… is there something better than this, or are we just romanticizing motherhood? 👀

Mental-health care should be easier to reach before things become a crisis. Community mental health means recognising early signs of distress, building basic mental-health knowledge in everyday spaces, and creating clear pathways to professional care when needed. #Idimma

“She should’ve known better than to be in a house full of men” so you agree its ALL men; that they could rape you if they want?

A clean environment is a safer environment. Good hygiene and proper sanitation can help reduce the risk of Lassa fever. Always keep your surroundings clean: Dispose of waste properly, store food safely in rodent proof containers and prevent rodents from getting into your home and water sources. Stay informed. Stay safe. #LassaFever #LassaFeverPrevention #CleanEnvironment #GoodHygiene #NCDC

There is a lot to figure out as a young adult, including your health. We need to make room for honest conversations, without prejudice or judgement. With our #HealthyCampusNaija tour, we are opening up those spaces. Looking forward to taking this to more campuses.

Yesterday at Nasarawa State University, Keffi, health conversations moved beyond lectures and daily handouts. Students were invited to talk, ask questions, play, debate and engage with issues that directly affect their everyday lives. The activities showed that health information is more useful when people can see themselves in the conversation. #HealthyCampusNaija

A healthier Nigeria will not happen by chance. It requires political will, sustained investment and leaders who are willing to make health a priority. As voters, we have a role to play: ask questions, examine commitments and hold elected leaders accountable for the health of Nigerians. #Vote4HealthNaija

He’s “too young” for prison at 19. She’s “old enough” to consent at 14. Funny how the numbers always protect men.
