HAPPY INDEPENDENCE CELEBRATION, NIGERIA!

SHADE-IN has helped me to express and exercise my passion for impacting lives, to brighten younger ones world by energizing their creative mind. I have been able to relate and work as a team at every point in time. Thanks to SHADE-IN.

To Nigerians, there are many times when you want to give up, and spending time doing other things may have seemed more attractive than training, but your hard work and diligence will pay off. Keep up the good work.

Don't be beaten into silence. You have all it takes to rise and be the best you can be. Greatness is in you, greatness is within.

Happy Independence Celebration!

While I worked with SHADE-IN in the course of service (NYSC) at Aba-Ebira, I realized that there were so many people who I could reach out to and they are often closer than I think they are. I learnt the power of networking and became exposed to more people while working with SHADE-IN.

"Until we realize that Nigeria is our only home and treat her right, we cannot move forward", and "without God Nigeria cannot be!"

Happy Independence Celebration, Nigeria!

In the next 1-2 years, I want Nigeria to be great, and to be known, not in a bad way but in a good way. I want Nigeria to be blessed by the favour of God. I want all killings to stop in Nigeria because Nigeria is a good country where people can migrate into but the killings will not encourage migrants who can contribute to the GDP of Nigeria, to settle in our great nation.

Educators' Role Towards Learning For Lasting Peace - Advocate for Reviewed Education Budget Allocation.

This year's international day of education focuses on Learning for Lasting Peace with hashtag #LeadingSDG4, by emphasising the crucial role education and teachers play in countering hate speech. According to United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), "Education is a human right, a public good and a public responsibility." If it is a public responsibility, then it's definitely the Government's responsibility as well. UNESCO also cited that "without inclusive and equitable quality education and lifelong opportunities for all, countries will not succeed in achieving gender equality and breaking the cycle of poverty that is leaving millions of children, youth and adults behind.

It's time to transform education." For ove...
