The immediate past Senate president of Nigeria and the two term governor of Kwara State has took to his twitter account to commend the Nigeria Pop star, Ayo Balogun popularly known as Wizkid for the release of his newest album.

Wizkid released his latest album titled made in Lagos last week. It was gathered that the album was supposed to hit the street on 15th October, 2020, however, the musician delayed it to show respect to the activists protesting against police brutality. The album has 14 tracks and it features popular artists from home and abroad, such as Burna Boy, Skepta, H.E.R, Ella Mai and lot more.

Dr. Bukola Saraki in a tweet congratulated the musician and described the album as brilliant. “Wizkid’s #MadeInLagos is a brilliant end to what has been a long and eventful month for all of us. Currently vibing to my favorite track on the album ‘#Grace.’”

The former Senate president also said in another post that Davido is his son and he is looking forward to see Davido drop his album next month. He wrote, “Over the years, @Davido has been like a son to me. He, Wizkid and other young Nigerian artistes keep pushing the boundaries in our entertainment sector and making all of us proud! I also can’t wait for David’s album to drop next month!”

Congratulations to Wizkid

One thing is to have a sound perception about failure. Another thing entirely different is to respond in a healthy manner. Successful people respond differently to failure. Steve Jobs dropped out of Reed College after six months. He built a company from the very scratch. He called it “Apple”. As it were, one is too small number to build a sustainable global company. Jobs invited people to invest in his company. To cut the story short, Steve was sent out of Apple by the men he brought in. It was a severe blow to Jobs.

Just like any other person, Jobs was devastated. It seems to be the end of the world for him. Job knew too well that failures are inevitable, how we respond is optional. So, he responded in a way that made a way. Instead of committing suicide, or constituting nuisance, Jobs set out to start again a new company he called “NEXT”. And life continued.

The interesting part of the story is that; few years later, ‘Apple Computers’ begged to bring Jobs back and bought “NEXT”. Now think of it, if Jobs had committed suicide? What could have happened?

No matter how the eminence of your failure, you have a choice to dust yourself up and try again. Don’t give up.
