OGWO DAVID EMENIKE ~ Victoria Acerta



VICTORIA ACERTA

O weak survivor
O broken warrior
O weeping fighter
O discouraged journeyman

Bend low on your tired knees
In homage to the Almighty
Rise on your ready feet
And greet the day

See the sun majestically seated above your head
As it duly performs its chores
Be courageous and have faith
You'll still make it

Ignore the torturous miseries of yesterday
The sun still shines make hay
Perhaps success might come your way
Today might be the payday

What tomorrow has in store I know not
But if you do your work
And confront the day with no fear
Then tomorrow will smile at you.

Interview With Imoletoba Oluwatunmise - Owner Of Tic Footwears

Your brand tagline is (TIC). What does it mean to you, and how does it reflect the brand's values? TIC represents Timeless, Intentional, and Creative. To me, it means doing things with purpose and consistency. Every footwear produced under TIC Footwears is made with intention, creativity, and durability in mind. The brand values quality, growth, resilience, and customer satisfaction—principles that guide every step of our production process. Tic Footwears has been making waves in the footwear industry. What's the story behind the brand, and what inspired its creation? TIC Footwears was born out of life’s challenges and the need to create something meaningful despite having little support. I was inspired by a street uncle who shared his journey of learning a skill at 40 years old. His story encouraged me to start early and believe that growth has no age limit. The brand was created to turn hardship into purpose and to prove that consistency and faith can build something impactfu...

Interview With Youth Advocate, Comrade Kufre Matthew

Comrade Kufre, thank you for joining us today! As the Chairman of the Nigeria Youth Alternative Council (NYAC), Akwa Ibom chapter, what inspired you to take on this role and dedicate yourself to youth empowerment? Thank you very much. My inspiration comes from my deep concern about the untapped potential of young people in our society. I have seen many youths with ideas, energy, and passion but without proper guidance or platforms to express themselves. Accepting the role of Chairman of NYAC, Akwa Ibom State chapter, was a call to service—to create opportunities, amplify youth voices, and ensure young people are part of decision-making processes that shape their future. You've led initiatives like PVC awareness and voter registration drives. What strategies have you used to encourage young people to participate in democratic processes, and what impact have you seen? We focus on grassroots engagement—meeting young people where they are, both physically and digitally. Through PVC awa...

Seen Only When Needed

You asked. I gave what I could. Not everything. Just enough. After that, my messages felt quiet. Not because I stopped, but because you stopped seeing. The space between us grew. No fight. No goodbye. Just distance. I stayed available. You stayed away. I understood without words: people remember you when they need you, then forget when the need is gone. I didn’t hate you. I only learned that timing rules hearts, and silence teaches more than promises. Life moves like this: giving, taking, leaving questions. I stand with mine. If only time could listen.
