In a world where stress is a constant companion, Adanma Odefa, a renowned social innovator and community advocate highlights the importance of National Opposite Day as a source of joy and laughter.
Speaking to our correspondent via WhatsApp, Odefa emphasized the day’s unique concept, celebrated in various countries, which encourages people to do and say the opposite of their usual actions and words.
“National Opposite Day is an intriguing idea,” she remarked. “It’s all about fun and laughter, a chance to break away from the mundane.”
She suggested playful activities such as calling your child by a sibling’s name, wearing clothes of the opposite gender, or enjoying breakfast for dinner.

Adanma Odefa humorously noted the daily stress people endure, from the simple act of buying petrol to the complexities of modern life. “Even a newborn can sense the stress we face daily,” she quipped. “Unless you’re already in Timbuktu, buying petrol alone can be a journey.”
However, she cautioned against taking the day’s antics too far. “Be careful not to get yourself into trouble,” she warned. “Calling your wife by your help’s name might just open heaven’s gates for a new visitor!”
As for her own plans, Odefa promised to concoct something that would ignite laughter in those around her. “What will it be?” she teased. “I’ll let you know once I figure it out.”
