We appreciate Anchor Heritage Initiative for their massive support and great partnership. @anchorheritage
7 WEEKS
That’s the number of weeks it took us to train the inmates of Kirikiri Medium Prison in the game of chess from scratch to knowing how to checkmate and compete among themselves.
In the next few weeks, we are going to release their official ratings.
Great days ahead ❤️♟️

#DYK Air pollution is an invisible yet deadly threat—pervasive, silent, and preventable if we take decisive action.
As we mark Earth Day, I will be speaking on the theme “Air Pollution: The Invisible Killer,” focusing on “Cutting the Smoke: How Short-Lived Climate Pollutants (SLCPs) Are Harming Our Communities — and What We Can Do.” organized by @cadef_ng
This webinar aims to mobilize home managers, youth groups, regulatory agencies, ministries, climate organizations, waste management stakeholders, and community leaders to better understand the health and economic impacts of air pollution and commit to meaningful advocacy and action.
Join us at 10:00 AM (Nigeria time) and register here: bit.ly/4tlEBTk

It is high time we plan a visit to Nigeria to train some of your members on the CHESS Initiative (Climate Heroes Engaged in Environmental protection, Education and Entrepreneurship for Social Sustainability).
One mission : collect plastic wastes during sports events.

We just sold our first recycled plastic @thegiftofchess chess set to a buyer from NYC for 500 USD. We are turning plastic waste in the slums of Kabira into global value. We are the chess alchemists.

When African youth are trusted with leadership, climate resilience becomes a movement—not a policy.

In the African green economy, employability is no longer just about degrees; it is about skills, purpose, and the ability of youth to lead solutions where climate and development intersect.

Climate resilience in Africa begins the moment we stop sidelining youth and start investing in their solutions.

Impressive 👏⚽
Your club's influence can go further: using players, fans & stakeholders to advance Football For The Goals by the United Nations.
We support clubs in this impact journey—and we’re planning a visit to Nigeria very soon 🇳🇬🌍
One of the things we do @IkoroduCityFC is to use our platform to develop players & prepare them for international deals.
We are very proud of @LeonardNgenge's move to Leeds United & most importantly, his development while @IkoroduCityFC
Before 18, Leo had already played about 25 NPFL games with @IkoroduCityFC
scoring a goal & providing an assist.
He was also called-up to CHAN 🇳🇬🦅 team from @IkoroduCityFC before joining Remo Stars.
At 18, Leo reminds me of young Rudiger with his approach to games and physical abilities.
Leeds United have a great and solid defender in Leo in the nearest future.

Education is empowerment 📚
It's a human right, a public good & a public responsibility.
It bridges gaps, transforms lives & powers the future.
This #EducationDay & every day, let Nelson Mandela’s words inspire us in making inclusive & quality education a reality for all!

Seeing kids in a Sudanese village moving pieces between mud huts and goats hits different. Chess doesn't need electricity, internet or money—just two minds and a dream of better moves tomorrow. This is quiet revolution stuff.
