Reunification: A Necessity In The Post Pandemic Period.

Introduction It is very sad to witness the existence of the so called “pandemic" that has thrown all human societies into a state of confusion, as the world undergoes a literal universal shut down. Recently, most nations adopted a gradual process to embark on social and business activities as COVID-19 cases reduced. Therefore, there is need to reeducate every Social group about reunification basically, or particularly on the principles and guidelines they have been acting towards. It is paramount to study and checkmate the aftermath of the COVID-19 so as to properly engage in the basic and necessary activities and programs that will ensure the restoration of the social and psychological well-being of the people and groups. Many political systems have started the process of restoration and the rebuilding of human lives, organizations and relationships. Notably, some States have been performing effectively to achieve their desired objectives through the introduction of new techno

THE AFRICA WE WANT

THE AFRICA WE WANT Ozemhoya Donatus I. I INTRODUCTION Vis-à-vis the African continent, there is no other continent, world-over, that the benevolence of providence has been so superfluous to. Viewing the continent from the area of solid natural resources, one discovers that Africa is home to a large deposits of Cocoa, Ivory, Gold, Crude Oil, et cetera, which are all needed in high quantities by the Northern Divide, of the global economic order, if it must flourish. Furthermore, from the area of human resource, the continent plays host to the largest numbers of youth in the world, thus setting it on the vantage of productivity with regards to labor-force. Against this backdrop, Africa should be the greatest place on the planet  Earth. However, this supposed greatness has incessantly strode the elusion path as Africa and Africans have been often categorized with the most undeserving class (Third World Countries) within the global comity of states. This brings to mind the big qu

Secret of Success: Learning, Unlearning, and Relearning

Secret of Success: Learning, Unlearning and Relearning "The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." These were the words of Alvin Toffler, an American writer, futurist, and businessman. Your success in any sphere of life is dependent on what you know about that particular thing. The famous English comic writer, Alan Moore says "knowledge like air is vital to life, like air no one should deny it." Knowledge is the facts, information, and skills acquired through experience or education; the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject. It is also the familiarity, awareness, or understanding of someone or something. Knowledge is power. Knowledge is a product of learning. Learning is a continuous process of life that never ends. Sociologists argue that human beings evolve from biological beings to social beings through the process of learning and interaction. Knowledge is

Change: A weapon for surviving the pandemic effects

Change is so pervasive in our lives that it almost defeats description and analysis. It's a common word and phenomenon that defies our attempts to stop or control it. On the other hand, it is also extremely implausible to deny the existence of change as one of the denominator of life. In Economics, change is a term synonymous to variables that vary and change from time; in historical parlance, change is subject to events of the past, present and future; in philosophical understanding, change can be akin to Heraclitus speculation that everything is constantly shifting, changing, and becoming something other to what it was before; in sociological review, change is seen from the lens of what sociologist consider as social change; in politics, we can talk on change based on tenure; under scientific consideration, change has to do basically with objects and the dynamics that surrounds those objects; one could go on and on, but the gist is clear that change is a constant factor of life

A review of the book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad"

A review of the book, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert T. Kiyosaki by Adebayo Ademola M. Virtually everybody have seen the book rich dad poor dad by the Japanese-American finance writer and tutor, Robert T. Kiyosaki before, but not everybody have read or studied this book because of the misconception about it. The first time someone saw the book with me, he said, " Demola, you have to be careful with this book, you must gain some stamina before reading it", and I ignorantly said "ok, I don't even think I will read the book" although, I was given as a school prize for been the best student in Painting and Decoration. But, after about three years, as I were still waiting for the result of my final semester's examination in the university, I picked up the small rectangular book and I begin to read and study the book. I haven't finish the first chapter before I got so immense in it because of the unconventional but deep eye-opening lessons it was

Actualising Peace in a conflicts driven world

ACTUALIZING PEACE IN CHALLENGING TIME AND COMBATING HATE; YOUTHS AS AGENTS OF PEACE. By the United Nations Organization’s own reckoning, youths are persons between the ages of 18 and 24. Professor Ben Wortley (1940) once said that peace is ``essentially a state of order in the society in harmony with man`s reasonable nature``. Hate messages, more commonly known as hate speeches are speeches or verbal or written messages which attack or are directed to attack a person or a group of persons on the grounds of race, religion, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, disability, or gender. One may easily conclude that youths are more in the times of violence than in the circumstances of peaceful co-existence. On the contrary, there are several factors raising the dust of trouble from within the youth. It is popularly said that there is no smoke without fire. The youths are angry with the injustice and no equal opportunities caused by corrupt government, and fake policies. Anger if n
