A Point of Duty

Image
Join me in Gumroad /> Let us make it a point of duty to guide people to Jesus Christ. Only through Him can those with broken bodies, broken dreams, broken homes and broken hearts come to wholeness of life. Read Mark 2:1-12 No Positive Impact Life is full of predators, while most communities are at the mercy of the forces of darkness. These criminals move freely because the government at all levels, the law enforcement and security agencies are complicit. Indeed, indiscipline, lawlessness, all forms of crimes, criminality and evil which are the creation of the cronies, protégés, well-wishers, supporters and admirers of political office holders which haves failed to positively impact on the lives of distraught citizens, are the legacies the leadership are about to leave behind.   IS Claims Nigeria Village Attack That Killed Dozens, Christians Among Those At Risk Hundreds Convicted In Nigeria Terror Trial Amid Fresh Attacks (Worthy News In-Depth)

Nigeria is good at formulating policies-Education Commissioner

The government at all levels in Nigeria is confronted with the major challenge of the implementation of well-formulated policies. This assertion was made on Thursday by the Commissioner for Education, Science, and Technology in Oyo State, Prof. Salihu Abdulwaheed Adelabu, at a one-day stakeholders' engagement meeting on the implementation of the National Education Quality Assurance Policy (NEQAP) in Ibadan, Nigeria. ''What are we implementing?'' Nigeria is good at formulating policies. We formulate very good policies, and for other countries, but implementation is the problem. How are we standardizing our education policy issues? We want our children to access quality qualityeducation, there is no way they can access quality education without a good quality assurance policy,'' the commissioner stated. Prof. Adelabu noted that academic qualifications alone were not enough to become a class teacher, saying, "Having an NCE or BSc. is not enough to become a class teacher. A cultist cannot become a class teacher. Not less than five were wrongly given appointment letters; we have withdrawn them.'' Earlier in her welcome address, the director/coordinating evaluator at the Quality Assurance Department of the Federal Ministry of Education in the state, Mrs. Abimbola Odeleye, stressed the need for the active participation of all stakeholders in the sector to foster accountability. ''We should not seek shortcuts but merit-based performance. Let us ensure that the education system in Oyo State provides quality education. Let us adopt a strategy that will improve education, Mrs. Odeleye concluded. Similarly, the representative of the chairman of the State Universal Basic Education (SUBEB), the executive secretary of the board, Mrs. Ladipo, maintained that all children ought to access quality education, saying, Every child deserves quality education that will empower them to reach their full potential." A detailed overview of the NEQAP was facilitated by another director in the quality assurance department of the Federal Ministry of Education in the state, Mrs. A.O. Oladele.

Ceaseless Prayers

Image
 Let us pray ceaselessly for God to open the eyes of those who have political power and have become committed to unjust economic policies and deep social injustices.  Amos 8:4-14 Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail, 5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit? 6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes;  yea , and sell the refuse of the wheat? 7 The LORD hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works. 8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as  by  the flood of Egypt. 9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I wi...

The Message

Image
 When Jesus Christ was about to conclude His sermon on the Mount, He told a story about two personalities who built houses, one on a rock and the other on sand. His aim was for His listeners to realize that those who heard His message and went away without putting it to practice were foolish. Jesus Christ expects us to take action on His message. Do we always practice the sermons we have heard? A sermon is not complete until it is put to practice. Read Matthew 7:24-29 Desperation to Cling to Transient Power  Those-in-Charge do not respect the people’s views, rather the leaders impose their self-driven agenda on the people. They take from the poor to enrich themselves. This is not the promise they made. Of great worry, is the naked fact that they are now very desperate to cling to transient power.
