World book day

I am particularly concerned about children in Nigeria that are out of school.
There are loads of them
Its really sad


 In Borno state Nigeria you still find a lot of children who are out of school some due to insurgency, others poverty, some also due to parental neglect and many other reasons there are few Non profit organizations that try to help with sending children back to school, Afew people with good hearts contribute to sending children to school but more is still required.
Idleness is the root cause of several  problems including violence.



Let the young people's mind be engaged positively for a better Nigeria
I like what Shakuntala Devi said "Education is not just about going to school and getting a degree. It's about widening your knowledge and absorbing the truth about life"

If you can,give a child a book today
Let's make the world a better place
Happy World book day!

Have you ever heard of Gwoza before? Well Gwoza is one of the  local government area  in Borno state,Nigeria that has suffered several attacks. During  one of the violent attacks at Gwoza  a little boy watched his  elder brother and Father being killed.His mother  was deeply pained.Her husband was her pillar and Loosing  two loved ones in a day was shocking  for her but there was no time to mourn the dead and   she knew that the only way to stay alive  was to flee their home.   Now   a widow and faced with the responsibility to take care of  her little son and his elder sister,she made up her mind to keep them safe.    They had to travel on foot hoping that they would  find their way  to a safer town.It was a tiring journey but they were not alone.Several others who survived the attack were also on this journey of a uncertainty.After walking a long distance It seemed as though there was hope for them  until there was another attack that claimed the lives of many and separated

Today I'll like to talk about  my recent adventure.I have heard a few stories  of how magnificent this place  was, I was curious .I wanted to see for myself  too.so when the opportunity  presented itself through  my  friend  Isha and Alwan I grabbed  it like a hungry lion would grab his prey. I was not alone on this mission,we went with our fun team and trust me it was worth the journey. Half way into the journey  Alwan said “ hope you guys know that where we are headed to is a headquarters for terrorist?”I turned to see the reaction  of the rest of the  team, it was a mixed reaction in my opinion on the one hand it was fear of uncertainty  on the other hand it was excitement  of  the possibility of an adventure of a life time(our team can be that unrelenting) but then  Alwan quickly  added well that was in the past.So it’s safe. The welcoming Welcome                                                Leelee the friendly horse and my new friend      When we

I was curious to know what was awaiting me but trying to picture what lies ahead was not really helping so I relaxed and  looked forward to a good time. climbing the stairs,I said to myself.this it ! Unsure of  what to expect ,I still made up my mind to go all the same.As soon as I stepped  into the room  I could not contain my excitement.for me,it was love at first sight . I was blown away and before long I fell in love with  the paintings on the  wall.  I was not alone at the art exhibition.My friends who happen to appreciate art  were in attendance as well and  were  equally thrilled. Unfortunately pictures are not enough   to express the incredible feeling and the quality  of  the painting we saw.Being faced with a the hand made paintings was really heartwarming. Art  is  beautiful , For a every piece there is a story.At a time these paintings were unreal, unseen , untouched  because they  were mere thoughts ,dreams , colors in the mind  until the artist g
