Congratulations to my SMART wife on her graduation ceremony at the prestigious Lagos state University. You are inarguably the best. More power to your elbow. I'm so proud of you. God bless you

One of the few things we got up too at the beginning of this year. #throwbackthursday to the Morning show chat on Arise TV. It was amazing discussing with @toyo_c and @stephaniecoker about livestock farming. #Tbt #lekkifarm #agriculture #youngfarmersproject

She labored for four days and after her baby was born dead, 27-year-old Asma'u Mohammed said she prayed and thanked Allah. She accepted her fate. It's easier to accept than to hold the government accountable for poor hospital services where there is neither enough oxygen nor electricity nor blood. This woman is a survivor. #photojournalism #documentaryphotography #women #Hijab #pregnancy #childbirth #health #Africa #profile #development #tribalmarks #closeup #nosering #culture #reportage #onassignment #Canon #Hausa #people #motherhood #survivor #humanity #reporter #reality #pray #inspire #woman #faces #womenshealth @ripostemagazine

Lyrics and translation:

Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se ba mi l'oruko je
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o 
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye o 
K'o ma se d'oku mo mi l'owo 
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye o 

Help me watch/nurse him/her to good/glory/greatness 

May he not ruin my name 

This child that you gave me 

May he not become a foolish adult in life 

May he not become a corpse in my hands 

Help me watch him that he blossoms 

Let him never be useless as an adult 

Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se da po mo egbekegbe 
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o
K'o ma se j'iya ofo l'aye o 
K'o ma se baje mo mi l'owo 
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se j'iya ofo l'aye o

Help me watch him well 

Let him not mix with bad company 

This child you have given me 

Let him not suffer pointlessly in this life 

Let him not spoil in my lifetime 

Help me watch him to prosper 

Let him not suffer needlessly in life. 

Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
Ba mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o 
K'o ma se ba mi l'oruko je
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o 
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye oBa mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye

Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
Ba mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye 
 wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye 
 wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
