The realities of self-reliance, from raising fences to arranging security measures and managing essential services, underscore the importance of shared prosperity. Driven by the wisdom of her father, who emphasized that shared prosperity guarantees individual prosperity, Dr. Salau has devoted her life to scaling the reach of this lesson as it has served her well.

Over the past two decades, Dr. Salau’s journey has been marked by valuable lessons, shaping her approach to transformative development:

Community: To achieve great milestones, unity and collaboration are indispensable. Entrepreneurship: Acknowledging the imperfections of the world, Dr. Salau emphasizes the need to take initiative and become agents of change, confident that we can drive the change we need and seek..

Roots: Recognizing that strong foundations are built from the grassroots upward, Dr. Salau advocates for the empowerment of individuals at the community level. Synergy: Dr. Salau firmly believes that everyone has a unique role to play, and often, the most unexpected collaborations yield the most significant impact. Driven by her own growth and transformation, Dr. Salau is committed to facilitating sustainable development among her fellow Lagosians. She recognizes the need for defining and leveraging the principles of sustainability tailored specifically to Lagosians.

To this end, Dr. Salau and her dedicated team are conducting comprehensive studies and embarking on a collective effort to guide the development of Lagosians in a sustainable manner through Education and school as we know it. The future holds countless possibilities, unexpected outcomes, innovative pilot programs, and statewide scalability.

Dr. Salau’s human development initiative will seek to leave no one behind, catering to all age groups and ensuring comprehensive growth and progress. Guided by an unwavering passion to help Lagosians find shared values and alignment, Dr. Salau envisions a future where every individual consciously and intentionally drives sustainable development in Lagos state.

For she firmly believes that the fate of Lagos is intrinsically tied to the collective journey of its people. Dr. Salau invites stakeholders from all sectors—businesses, government entities, and citizens—to collaborate in shaping a prosperous future.

Together, let us embark on this momentous journey, empowering every Lagosian to unlock their potential and drive sustainable development. For as Dr. Salau emphatically proclaims, “Where the people go, Lagos goes!

Mikel Arteta Refuses To Concede Title To Liverpool After Man United Draw

Mikel Arteta Refuses To Concede Title To Liverpool After Man United Draw

Mikel Arteta has refused to concede the Premier League title race after Arsenal fell 15 points behind Liverpool with a 1-1 draw at Manchester United.

Declan Rice’s 74th-minute strike cancelled out Bruno Fernandes’ opener in first half stoppage time but neither side were able to find a winner in a frantic finale at Old Trafford.

Arsenal still have a game in hand on the leaders but now face a mammoth task in their attempts to secure a first league crown since 2004.

And when asked whether the race was now over, Arteta said: “I don’t want to say that. Today the frustration is that we haven’t won the game. We know the urgency and we are obligated to win every single match if you want to have any chance of doing that. I don’t think it is the right moment to talk about that.”

Rice vowed Arsenal would keep pushing until the final day. “Like the manager said, we’ll keep going until the end of the season,” the England midfielder said.

“Liverpool have been amazing all year. We’re Arsenal. We’ve been hit hard by injuries. We’ll keep going and we’ll be alright.”

Arteta’s frustrations were evident when he left his post-match media obligations with Sky Sports early following a question about the title race.

After answering several questions, Arteta was asked whether he regretted Arsenal not signing a striker in January and replied: “No, it’s not about that” before beginning to walk away.

The interviewer then asked for one more question, which Arteta allowed. But while being asked about the 15-point gap to Liverpool, Arteta walked out of shot.

Arsenal’s attempt to sign Ollie Watkins failed after Al Nassr’s decision to snub Boniface

Ollie Watkins

Arsenal’s bid to sign Ollie Watkins from Aston Villa was impacted by Al Nassr’s decision to pursue a transfer for Jhon Duran instead of Victor Boniface.

Despite significant injuries to key players Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus, Arsenal failed to add a forward during the winter transfer window. Mikel Arteta had hoped to bolster his attacking options, with Watkins a potential target.

Discussions between Villa and Arsenal began after their Premier League clash on January 18, with Villa looking to sell one of Watkins or Duran due to manager Unai Emery’s difficulty in fitting both strikers into his starting lineup. Villa had been in talks with Al Nassr over a transfer for Duran and were willing to sell Watkins for £60 million.

Watkins, a boyhood Arsenal fan, was eager for the move, and the Gunners submitted an opening bid of £40 million on January 27, which was promptly rejected. Arsenal planned to make a second offer, but Al Nassr’s decision to focus on Duran over Boniface meant that the potential transfer of Watkins to Arsenal was no longer possible.

With the transfer window now closed, Arteta is left with Kai Havertz as his only forward option for the remainder of the season.
