Emi Lo Kan And City Boy: The PR Strength of Tinubu’s Campaign  Mary Akanbi 20th August, 2022 .                  Bola Ahmed Tinubu Owning the mistake and creating a brand message out of the slogan, in addition to media support, has landed Jagaban a sort of swag to boost his campaign. Nigerians often roar at the utterance of audacious statements by public figures. When Buhari threatened to ‘treat young Nigerians in a language they understand’, the Twitter section of the nation blasted the president till he actually reminded the people that he has the final say. When Tinubu, in his feelings, made it known that the presidency is his right, the usual uproar erupted online. However, Tinubu has been able to spin the negative interpretation of ‘Emi lo kan’ for the good of his campaign. 'Emi lo kan ' is Yoruba. In English, it means,  'It's my turn". A crisis well handled... .                   Bola Ahmed Tinubu Again, this writer reiterates that Tinu

Stop Saying "I love You" Because It Is Outdated, Say This Instead Mary Akanbi 16th August, 2022 It is the phrase that is used the most. It's a nice thing to say, but could you tell me if you really mean it? Tell me if you really believe that, because a lot of people say it just because they always have. How have you been able to be together for so long? A journalist asked an old couple. She said, "We were born in a time when broken things were fixed. I say, "Don't just throw it away." I had to take a breath after hearing what she said. Most people today say that love isn't love at all, but rather ownership. To be negative, I think that most people in our generation don't know what the differences are. So, if you don't know what to say, don't say "I love you."
