July 1: All Interstate Travellers And Students Nationwide Should Take Note Of This Information

I am sure Nigerians are aware that the lockdown on inter-state movement and school activities which lasted for exactly three months was revisited by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The lockdown which was initially aimed at reducing the spread of the pandemic seemed to have left Nigerians confused as to its effectiveness because despite the fact that the lockdown was in effect, the virus kept on spreading at an alarming rate. The Federal Government with the Advice of the NCDC decided to let inter-state movements begin as well as allow students in PRY6, JSS3 and SSS3 to resume school activities in order to prepare fully for their promotion exams. 

Now that the lockdown on inter-state movement and school operations has been temporarily suspended, here are some very vital information to all stakeholders involved.

1. The Virus Is Still In Existence

The fact that the lockdown on inter-state movements and some school activities have been lifted does not mean that the virus has been defeated. The Coronavirus is very much in existence and is still infecting people at a very high rate. In whatever you do, always remember that the virus is real and also do your best to stay safe.

2. Inter-State Drivers Should Educate Their Passengers

A driver does not need to be a holder of a degree certificate before he can educate his passengers. Drivers should endeavor to educate their passengers on the need to always be safe while in the vehicle. The need to practice social distancing and use of face masks is very paramount in order to ensure safety because if you see videos of people who have been infected, you would pray the virus never finds you. 

3. Use of Face Masks Should Be Made Compulsory For Students 

As the PRY6, JSS3 and SSS3 students go back to school to resume learning in preparation of their final exams, the use of face masks in the school environment should be made compulsory. Also proper decontamination of school environments should be done before these students are made to resume. Truth be told, many of these students are still young and naive! The responsibility lie on both the parents and teachers to make the students see the need to practice strict safety protocols like constant washing of hands, use of face masks and hand sanitizers. 

4. People Above The Age Of 60 Should Limit Their Frequency Of Movements 

It is true that old people are easily susceptible to the virus. It would be better for them to not travel till a cure is found. The effects the Coronavirus has on elderly peoole tend to be more severe than that of youths due to the fact that their immune system is not too strong. If you are above 60 years old, try not to embark on any journey which is not extremely relevant and even when you do, try as much as possible to stay safe. 

The Coronavirus is not a Scam, it is real! The important thing is that we learn to accommodate it just like the Hepatitis and the HIV until a vaccine is found. 

Together, we can fight this and win! 

MAY WE NOT FALL VICTIM TO THE CORONAVIRUS.

How to Rebuild Your Confidence After Failure by Kneelyo Akinbowale

How to Rebuild Your Confidence After Failure by Kneelyo Akinbowale  Failure has a way of shaking the very foundation of our confidence. One moment, you believe in yourself; the next, doubt creeps in, whispering that you are not good enough, not smart enough, or not destined to succeed. But here is the truth many people never tell you: failure does not destroy confidence—how you interpret failure does. If you have failed recently, this is not the end of your story. It is the beginning of a wiser, stronger chapter. Understand That Failure Is Not Your Identity One of the most dangerous mistakes people make after failing is allowing the failure to define who they are. You didn’t fail because you are a failure. You failed because you tried. Every successful person you admire today has failed in one way or another. The difference is that they refused to turn a moment into a permanent label. Separate what happened from who you are. Your worth is not measured by one outcome. Al...

Growth Is Painful, But Stagnation Is Worse by Kneelyo Akinbowale

Growth is not a comfortable journey. It stretches you, challenges your beliefs, exposes your weaknesses, and forces you to confront versions of yourself you would rather ignore. Many people avoid growth not because they don’t desire progress, but because they fear the pain that often comes with it. But here is the truth many don’t like to face: while growth is painful, stagnation is far more dangerous. The Pain That Comes With Growth Growth demands change, and change rarely feels good at first. It may require you to leave familiar environments, let go of relationships that no longer serve your purpose, or unlearn habits that once kept you comfortable but now keep you stuck. Pain in growth shows up as: • Fear of the unknown • Temporary failure and embarrassment • Discipline over comfort • Sacrificing immediate pleasure for long- term fulfillment. This pain, however, has a purpose. It is the pain of becoming—of building strength, wisdom, and character. Just like muscles grow...

Growth Mindset vs Fixed Mindset: The Battle That Shapes Your Future by Kneelyo Akinbowale.

In life, success is not controlled by talent alone, background, or even opportunity. More often than not, it is controlled by how we think. The mindset you adopt determines how you respond to challenges, failure, criticism, and growth. Two dominant mindsets shape human behavior: the Fixed Mindset and the Growth Mindset. Understanding the difference between these two can change the direction of your life. What Is a Fixed Mindset? A fixed mindset is the belief that intelligence, talent, and abilities are permanent traits. People with this mindset believe they are either “good at something” or “not good at it,” and nothing can change that. Characteristics of a Fixed Mindset: • Fear of failure • Avoiding challenges • Giving up easily • Feeling threatened by other people’s   success • Taking criticism personally • Believing talent alone leads to success Someone with a fixed mindset might say: •“This is just who I am.” •“I’m not smart enough for that.” •“I’ve tried befor...
