AKEREDOLU: YORUBA LAND HAS LOST A TRUE DEMOCRATIC AND PATRIOTIC ADVOCATE OF TRUTH AND JUSTICE

A Pan-Yoruba Professional Group with a key focus on the all-round prosperity of Yoruba Land, Yoruba Professionals Foundation (YPF) has condoled with the entire family of Akeredolu of Owo Kingdom, Government and good people of Ondo State and the entire Yoruba Land on the death of a dogged democratic and a defender of truth, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu , SAN, CON.

The group expressed her condolences in a message signed and made available to newsmen by the Director of Media and Investment promotions, Mr. Sola Fayemi. The group was saddened by the protracted battle of the former Governor of Ondo State with Cancer and his final submission to the will of God.

“Arakunrin Akeredolu would be remembered by all Yoruba Descendants for his bold and courageous stance during the invasion of the region by killers Herdsmen which later birthed the Regional Security Network Agency known as Amotekun during the deceased reign as the Chairman of the Governor’s Forum of the Southwest States and a frontliner of the advocacy of defending the Region against attacks and humiliations. Arakunrin was never economical with the truth and always had his voice projected on issues of national development and regional integration.

“Arakurin Akeredolu's undeterred commitment to the prosperity of Yoruba Descends was further expressed by his support during the Group’s 7th edition of our Entrepreneurial training held in Akure, Ondo State capital where over 400 Yoruba descendants were equipped for self-reliance.

“He was a progressive and true democratic, having served as the former President of the Nigerian Bar Association and 2-term Governor of Ondo State with various developmental projects and achievements ascribed to him. He was so passionate about the development of Ondo State and same was evident in his indelible achievements recorded under his governance of the State’s affairs.

“We are pained for the loss of a dogged fighter and fearless advocate but at same time consoled in his unforgettable memories and footprints while we send our sympathy to friends, family, good people of Ondo State, members of Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) and all Yoruba Descendants on the loss of an illustrious Son and patriotic Brother. We condoled specially with our friend and member, Babajide Akeredolu on the loss of his father and best friend while we pray that God should uphold him and the entire family with strength and grace during this grieving period”. the statement reads.

Optimizing Wellness: A Holistic Approach to Healthy Living

In a fast-paced world, prioritizing holistic well-being is essential for a healthier and more fulfilling life. Adopting a holistic approach to healthy living involves addressing various aspects of your life, including physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Here's how you can optimize wellness and achieve a balanced and vibrant lifestyle.

1. Nourishing Your Body: The Foundation of Holistic Health

A key element of holistic wellness is maintaining a balanced and nutritious diet. Focus on incorporating a variety of colorful fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats into your meals. A well-nourished body supports overall health, boosts energy levels, and enhances your ability to handle daily challenges.

2. Active Living: Exercise for Physical and Mental Vitality

Regular physical activity is not only crucial for physical health but also plays a significant role in promoting mental well-being. Find an exercise routine that you enjoy, whether it's jogging, yoga, or weight training. Exercise releases endorphins, reduces stress, and contributes to better sleep, laying the foundation for a holistic healthy lifestyle.

3. Quality Sleep: Recharging for Optimal Performance

Quality sleep is a cornerstone of holistic wellness. Establish a consistent sleep schedule and create a relaxing bedtime routine to improve the quantity and quality of your sleep. A well-rested body and mind enhance cognitive function, mood, and overall resilience to daily challenges.

4. Stress Management: Cultivating Inner Peace

In the pursuit of holistic health, managing stress is paramount. Incorporate stress-reducing activities into your daily routine, such as mindfulness meditation, deep breathing exercises, or engaging in hobbies. These practices not only reduce stress but also enhance emotional well-being and foster a sense of inner peace.

5. Mind-Body Connection: Nurturing Emotional Health

Recognizing the interconnectedness of mind and body is vital for holistic wellness. Take time for activities that nurture your emotional health, such as journaling, therapy, or spending quality time with loved ones. Cultivating a positive mindset and fostering emotional resilience contribute to a more balanced and fulfilling life.

In conclusion, optimizing wellness through a holistic approach involves a mindful balance of nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress management, and emotional well-being. By embracing these interconnected elements, you can embark on a journey towards a healthier, more vibrant life. Remember, small, sustainable changes can lead to significant improvements in your overall well-being.

EID-EL-FITRI

The BOT, Management and entire members of Yoruba Professionals Foundation (YPF) felicitate with our Muslim faithful on this year's celebration of Eid-el- Kabir.

We urge members and Yoruba descendants to imbibe the virtues of the Prophet Ibraheem (SAW) and the significance of the season which are love, fear of God, tolerance and a sacrificial lifestyle. We can only conquer as an indivisible entity when we prioritise love, persistence and peaceful co-existence in our resolute for a prosperous society.

We wish you all a glorious celebration as we pray that God should keep us to witness more of it.

Eid Mubarak.
