Actress Temitope Olowoniyan recently reflected on the journey of personal growth, highlighting a valuable lesson about self-kindness and purposeful living.
On Instagram, Olowoniyan stressed the significance of treating oneself with compassion while pursuing goals. She shared that her insights also revolve around accepting her own development, noting that with each season, she encounters a refreshed version of herself, often bringing unexpected discoveries.
She wrote, “Every season, I meet a new version of myself… and she always surprises me. What’s one lesson you’ve learned recently that changed how you see yourself? I’ll go first: We’re all doing this life for the first time. Be easy on the judgment of yourself, but strict with your goals.
“And if you could speak to the younger you right now, what would you say? For me: It’s crazy how the dreams that once felt scary and funny are now beginning to make perfect sense.”
In other news… On-Air Personality, Toolz Oniru-Demuren, popularly known as Toolz, has weighed in on a viral video showing protesters in Texas urging local shops to stop selling alcohol and pork in support of Sharia law.
In the clip, the demonstrators could be seen holding placards and chanting against the sale of alcohol, gambling, and pork, while demanding adherence to Islamic law.
Reacting via her social media handle, Toolz questioned why anyone would migrate to countries like the United States or the United Kingdom and then demand Sharia law, instead of relocating to nations where the system already exists.
She wrote:
“Why move to America or the UK and demand for Sharia law when you can move to a country where Sharia Law already exists?”
Her comment has since sparked debates online, with many Nigerians echoing her sentiments, while others argued about the balance between religious freedom and respecting the legal framework of host countries.
