I don’t always nearly die on road trips, but when I do, it’s because my girlfriend is driving and the GPS loses signal just as we’re approaching a six-way highway interchange—with only 100 feet left before our exit ramp on the right—while we’re in the left-hand lane. And she’s totally convinced we can make it, because I told her we could…
Because her mother, Julie, is sitting in the backseat without a seatbelt, silently judging me through the headrest with those eyes that scream, “You’re not good enough for my daughter because you don’t apply yourself—unlike her ex-boyfriend Josh.”

Josh, who applies himself real well when it comes to scoring 💊 and getting his back blown out behind the Super 8 Motel.

We just don’t dare tell Julie, because she’s best friends with Josh’s mom—who’s blissfully unaware of both his “lifestyle” and his little pharmaceutical side hustle… but that’s for another meme.

“Hold on, Julie!!! This is gonna be close!!!”

On a pristine Australian island, the seabirds have become so full of plastic they crackle and crunch.

For about 18 years, Dr Jen Lavers has been travelling to Lord Howe Island to study the mutton birds, and every time finds more and more plastic inside them.

She says what is happening to the mutton birds is happening everywhere. Plastics and microplastics are being found in everything, including humans, but the migratory shearwater is a ‘sentinel species’ for a bigger problem.

“These birds have a very important story to tell, and what they are telling us is that their populations are in decline, that the amount of plastic they’re consuming is going up and up,” she said.

“The birds are telling us we need to do more.”

Dr Lavers has been seeking to raise the plight of the mutton bird, saying it is a canary in the coal mine for the world’s larger plastic problem.

And so, as Australian politicians campaigned in a federal election, she enlisted the help of long-time friend and Greens senator Peter Whish-Wilson, asking him to join her and see for himself the state of the mutton birds on Lord Howe Island.

Arriving to the island for the first time, Whish-Wilson said the mountainous landscape rising out of the fog was like something from Gilligan’s Island.

“It’s not really the kind of place you come to be shocked, and walk away feeling a little bit traumatised.”

Running a business in Nigeria is not for the faint-hearted.
Running a company while managing six businesses? Even harder.
But if anyone is built for this journey, it’s me.

Yesterday, at the African Choice Awards, I was honored with the Female Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2025 award — and as I stood there receiving it, all I could think about was that eight-year-old girl who started it all.

At eight years old, after losing my father, I made a promise to myself — and to him — that no matter what, I would finish school.
With no parent to fall back on and no relatives stepping in, I turned to what I had: resilience, determination, and a drive to survive.
I began supplying mangoes and fruits from my father’s house to women in the market at wholesale, raising the funds I needed for my education, one sale at a time.

That young girl, who learned to fend for herself when the odds were stacked against her, has come full circle.

Today, I run multiple businesses, lead a company, and continue to chase the dreams that little girl dared to dream.
This award is not just a recognition — it’s a reminder: where you start doesn’t define where you’ll go.

Thank you to the African Choice Awards @africachoiceawards for this honor, and to every woman out there fighting silent battles and building dreams from scratch — this is for you.
