Nigeria has a complexly woven history of leaders who have set their agenda before the country. After gaining independence from British colonization on October 1, 1960, the country sometimes invested in a good leader and was sometimes infested by a worse dictator.

Laughter is a universal language, and Jimmy Fallon has mastered it. His ever-cheerful, jovial laugh has become a signature in late-night TV. Do you know how you sometimes laugh because of the other person’s laugh and not their actual joke? This sums up Fallon’s schtick. But Fallon did have quite a humble beginning. Lorne Michaels, the showrunner for Saturday Night Live, saw Fallon as a significant addition to the talented lineup on season 25 in September 1998.

The influence of one person can silence the voices of several victims. However, just an ounce of courage is enough to change this despair into empowerment. And just like that, one woman’s voice changed the course of WWE. In 2020, David Starr’s partner accused him of sexual abuse. This sparked a whole movement against the male wrestlers who got away with abuse just because they were famous, had influence, and were probably shielded by the…
