I was pleased to be updated on last week’s Comprehensive Newborn Care Course, as the @WellbeingAfrica Foundation’s commitment to maternal and newborn survival translated into meaningful, measurable action through the delivery of this programme under Project Oscar – Light for Life.

In partnership with @NEST360Org, @SCIDaR_, the Lagos State Ministry of Health @LagosHealth, and Lagos University Teaching Hospital @LUTHOfficial, this initiative has strengthened frontline healthcare workers with the clinical expertise and practical skills required to deliver quality, evidence-based newborn care across Nigeria. 

I have long maintained that the survival of a newborn is not a matter of chance, but of systems strengthening through consistently improving skills, and sustained investment. From the care of preterm and low birth weight infants to infection prevention, safe referral, and the promotion of early and exclusive breastfeeding, this training reflects our #MamaCare360 approach to integrated, continuum-based care.

When we invest in frontline health workers, we are investing in the future of our nations. Each trained provider strengthens the health system, and each newborn reached brings us closer to a world where preventable deaths are no longer tolerated.

Motherhood is a lineage of love and wisdom. From the blessed matriarchs who nurtured us to the women building the future for the next generation. To mothers, grandmothers, and great grandmothers everywhere, today we honour you. Happy Mother’s Day!

Honoured to attend the reception hosted by His Majesty King Charles III at St James’s Palace in celebration of the Nigerian Diaspora in the United Kingdom.

This engagement marks my first international appearance following the conclusion of the traditional forty-day period of mourning for my beloved father, HRH The Otunba Adekunle Ojora, of blessed memory, observed in accordance with our cultural traditions in Nigeria. It was therefore especially meaningful to join fellow Nigerians and friends of Nigeria in recognising the contributions of the diaspora and the enduring ties between the United Kingdom and Nigeria.

I was accompanied by Zelia Bukhari, Director of Global Health Policy & Advocacy at the Toyin Saraki Global Policy & Philanthropy Office.

The @WellbeingAfrica Foundation is pleased to note the continued impact of The @KingsTrustInternational in supporting young people in advancing professional capacity-building skills and entrepreneurship across the Commonwealth and beyond.

#CommonwealthDay, marked by citizens across the Commonwealth yesterday, offered a moment to reflect on the shared purpose that connects our community of 56 nations and more than 2.7 billion people.

This year’s theme, Unlocking Opportunities Together, highlights the importance of cooperation in advancing societies where potential is underpinned by health, wellbeing, and human development. Strengthening health systems, expanding equitable access to quality care, and supporting women, children and families throughout the life course remain central to inclusive progress across the Commonwealth.

Through my work with the @WellbeingAfrica Foundation, and in support of the @Commonwealth_Sec, I continue to advocate for the advancement of maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health, strengthening community health systems, and sustained progress towards universal health coverage and the @UnitedNations Sustainable Development Goals.

I was grateful to receive our dear generational family friends, the illustrious Shinkafi Family, including H.E. Dr Zainab Shinkafi Bagudu, Hajiya Fatima Shinkafi and her husband, Dr Abba Ibrahim, and Alhaji Murtala Ikyasu, who paid a condolence visit to my mother, Erelu Ojuolape Ojora, and our family, as we continue to honour and remember the life of my beloved father, HRH Otunba Adekunle Ojora.

Their visit was a meaningful moment of friendship and solidarity for our family during this period of reflection and remembrance. Such gestures remind us of the strength found in community, shared history, and enduring relationships.

On behalf of our family, I extend our sincere appreciation and warm prayers of goodwill to the Shinkafi Family for their thoughtfulness at this time.

On yesterday’s International Women’s Day, I was honoured to share a live Message of Solidarity at the World Public Relations Forum @wprfnipr2026 #IWD2026 Special Pre-Event, convened under the theme Responsible Communication as a Tool for Advancing Women’s Rights and Social Justice.

I commend the Global Alliance for Public Relations and Communication Management @globalalliancepr, the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations @niprofficial, and the WPRF Abuja 2026 National Planning Committee for bringing together leaders across diplomacy, civil society, and the global communications community to reflect on the profound responsibility carried by those who shape public narratives.

Communication influences the policies we prioritise, the voices we elevate, and the truths we choose to amplify. When grounded in evidence, integrity, and inclusion, it becomes a powerful instrument for advancing dignity, strengthening trust, and promoting justice for women and girls.

Through my work with my @WellbeingAfrica Foundation, I continue to see how responsible communication, trusted community engagement, and accurate information can transform outcomes in maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health, empowering women and families while strengthening the resilience of our economies and societies.

I continue to stand in solidarity with women in Nigeria, across Africa, and around the world, strengthening our shared commitment to ensuring that the narratives we shape, the language we choose, and the platforms we build contribute to a more equitable and just future for all.

On International Women’s Day, I reflect on the extraordinary contributions of women and girls across every community and every sector of society, and on the shared responsibility we carry to advance gender equality in meaningful and lasting ways. Since its first observance in 1911, #InternationalWomensDay has grown into a global moment that honours the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women while calling the world to sustained action in support of women’s rights, leadership and opportunity.

The 2026 theme, Give To Gain, reminds us that progress for women and girls has always been driven by collective commitment and shared investment. When individuals, organisations and communities give their support through mentorship, knowledge, advocacy, resources and opportunity, the impact extends far beyond the individual. Each act of support expands the conditions that allow women to participate in society, to lead with confidence and to contribute to stronger and more inclusive institutions. When women are supported to thrive, the benefits are felt across families, economies and nations.

The @UnitedNations affirms that gender equality is a fundamental human right and a foundation for peaceful, prosperous and sustainable societies. Women and girls represent half of the world’s population and therefore half of its potential. Ensuring access to quality healthcare, education, and socio-economic opportunity remains central to fostering resilient communities and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals.

At the @WellbeingAfrica Foundation, this commitment continues to guide our work to improve maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and to advance the wellbeing of women and girls across Nigeria and globally. Through our programmes, policy engagement and partnerships, we strengthen frontline health systems and work to ensure that women are respected and empowered at every stage of life.

On this International Women’s Day, the call to action is clear, through giving our voice, our leadership, our resources and our solidarity, we advance equality for women and girls and shape the just future we share.

We have always found it remarkably endearing that despite Pastor Enoch Adeboye’s reach and stature, he remains disarmingly simple. As the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, his impact is seen not only in the millions he shepherds across continents but also in the thoughtful precision he brings to faith and to human development.

Daddy GO Sir, in celebration of your 84th birthday yesterday, Bukola and I join the millions of well-wishers around the world in thanking God for your life and legacy. We pray for strength, sound health, and abiding grace in the years ahead. Amen. ...

I was deeply touched to receive the thoughtful condolence visit of Their Excellencies, the distinguished members of @FLACnig, First Ladies Against Cancer Nigeria.

Your presence and prayers during this period of mourning and remembrance for my beloved father, HRH Otunba Adekunle Ojora, OFR, CON, JP, meant a great deal to my family and me. In moments such as these, the compassion of friends and partners in service is a profound source of strength.

I remain grateful for your solidarity, and for the work you continue to advance in strengthening cancer awareness, prevention, and care across Nigeria. ...

I continue to be deeply moved by the presence of family, friends, and well-wishers who have come to offer their prayers and condolences following the passing of my beloved father. My family and I are profoundly grateful for every prayer, every kind word, and every gesture of compassion. May his memory continue to be a blessing. 🙏 ...

As we mark Women’s History Month 2026, I am inspired by this year’s theme, Leading the Change: Women Shaping a Sustainable Future, as we celebrate the leadership of Nigerian women and women around the world whose vision and action continue to support lasting and inclusive progress.

Women’s History Month is an annual observance that recognises the often under-acknowledged contributions of women across history and across every field of human endeavour, from public health and scientific discovery to community organising and policy leadership. Across Nigeria and globally, women sustain families and communities, and play decisive roles in shaping healthier and more just societies. In the health sector in particular, women drive innovation, lead research, strengthen health systems, and champion equitable care that expands access and improves outcomes for mothers, newborns and families.

Women make up nearly 70% of the global health and care workforce, yet remain underrepresented in leadership and decision-making, reinforcing the urgency of placing women at the centre of health systems to advance gender equality and build sustainable futures. At my @WellbeingAfrica Foundation, this understanding shapes our work and guides our mission, as we stand with our #WBFA midwives, nurses, doctors, clinicians, researchers, community leaders and advocates whose expertise and commitment are transforming maternal health systems, expanding access to respectful maternity care, advancing evidence-informed policy, and ensuring that every woman’s health journey is met with dignity, safety and respect. Their leadership reflects the kind of enduring change required to improve health outcomes for generations to come.

During Women’s History Month 2026, I honour the women who have shaped our past and those shaping our shared future through courageous leadership, innovative science, compassionate care and a continued commitment to health equity.
