‘The Arabs in old times used to say. Four things separate brothers: wealth, women, jealousy, and death. Four things make you lose your value among people: talking too much, laughing too much, lying and gossiping. Four things by which a wife ruins her home: stubbornness, anger, suspicion, and raising her voice. Four things by which a man ruins his home: distance, neglect, harshness, and stinginess.’

The annual #SDGReport makes two things unmistakably clear: the Sustainable Development Goals work. They are delivering for people — but not fast enough, not evenly and not without setbacks.   They are still within reach, but only if we act with greater urgency, solidarity and political will. The next four years are our opportunity to accelerate progress and deliver on the promise of the SDGs.  unstats.un.org/sdgs/report/20…

The world has changed significantly since the #SDGs were negotiated, bringing new challenges and opportunities that call for renewed focus. In London, I joined leaders from across sectors for a timely gathering on the future of sustainable development. We discussed shared security and solidarity for people, planet and peace. We must treat development as the emergency it is. The decisions we make now will shape how the multilateral system evolves to support countries in the future.

Only 15–18% of Africa’s merchandise trade takes place within the continent, despite the immense opportunity the AfCFTA presents. Remarkably, women drive nearly 70% of this intra-African trade. The inaugural #HerAfCFTA Regional Conference in Abuja brought together policymakers, the private sector, and the @UN to identify practical pathways for expanding intra-African trade while strengthening women’s leadership and participation in unlocking the full potential of the AfCFTA. Proud that Nigeria convened this important continental dialogue. Thank you, @AhunnaEziakonwa, and congratulations to Hon. @Joduwole, @fmitiofficial, @hm_womenaffairs, and H.E. @MeneWamkele for advancing Africa’s trade and development agenda.

Some of the most transformative development solutions begin as ideas, nurtured by vision, enabled by innovation, and scaled through partnership. Great connecting with @toyosirise to discuss the potential of Nigeria’s innovation ecosystem, particularly the opportunities emerging from AI and other frontier technologies to accelerate sustainable development, expand opportunities for young people, and drive more inclusive growth. Our conversation highlighted the need to connect talent, technology, policy, and investment to ensure innovation delivers both economic value and tangible impact for people and communities. @UNDPNigeria looks forward to exploring areas of collaboration in support of @NigeriaGov’s development aspirations.

Despite important progress, 138 million children remain in child labour worldwide, including nearly 54 million in hazardous work. Every child deserves to learn, play, grow and live a life free from violence. Let’s recommit to #EndChildLabour in all its forms.

Don't seek advice from people who just echo your desires; instead, listen to those who have the COURAGE to tell you the HARD TRUTHS you actually need to hear. #mondaymotivation

A Gift of Peace Ten years on, Muhammad Ali still speaks—through a painting of the United Nations headquarters he once created. Everyday, as I pass by it, I am reminded that peace is forged by those who refuse to accept violence as the final word. Read my op-ed on @AJEnglish: aljazeera.com/amp/opinions/2…

A resounding congratulations to His Excellency, @atiku Abubakar on this powerful stride forward under the African Democratic Congress(ADC) banner. At this defining moment in our national journey, Nigeria cannot afford political experiments or leadership on-the-job training.
