The Imperative of Building Your Future Before Marriage.

By Ahmed Hauwa Kuta,  In today’s Nigeria, the rush to secure a place in the arms of a well-to-do spouse often overshadows the importance of building one’s own future. Nigerian women, in particular, find themselves at a crossroads, torn between societal expectations and personal aspirations. The stark reality is that many are opting for the allure of marriage to wealthy men instead of charting a course to establish their careers and secure their own futures. Breaking away from tradition is never easy, especially when it concerns something as deeply ingrained as the ideal of marriage. Nigerian women, like women worldwide, have been conditioned to believe that their ultimate goal should be marriage. However, it’s crucial to recognize that a woman’s worth extends far beyond her marital status. The modern Nigerian woman faces an alluring but precarious path. A growing trend sees young women prioritizing marrying into wealth over investing in themselves. While financial security is ess

It is a specific type of phobia, an anxiety disorder characterized by a persistent and excessive fear of an object or situation.

Onana's 15 Goals in 10 Games a Concern for Manchester United

Image
By  Adams ozomata Ahmed U17mm1169 The Cameroonian goalie hasn't been on the best form in the early moments of his first season with Manchester united.  Goal keeper Andre onana  has conceded 15 goals in just 10 games playing for the red devils which most united fans haven't found this appealing. Onana who was signed to complement the flaws  of  former Manchester united's goal keeper David de'gea in terms of  a "ball playing goalie" haven't started out well for the Manchester team. Although onana's ball playing skills were extremely remarkable at inter Milan clubside where he was bought from but he hasn't really manifested those skills with his new clubside.  Onana who have conceded 15 goals in 10 games across several competitions like; the  EPL, carabao cup and the champions league weren't what the fans around the world expected.    IS IT TOO EARLY TO JUDGE ONANA? Although the Manchester united star has only starred in just ten games across all

Image
By; Sadiq Hauwa Musa, U17mm1197 In the heart of Africa, where an ever-evolving economic landscape meets the resilience of its people, a bold decision by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has ignited a debate that reverberates far beyond Nigeria's borders. The removal of fuel subsidies, a historic and often contentious policy, has taken center stage, and its impact on the nation's economy and the lives of its citizens is nothing short of transformational. For decades, Nigeria's fuel subsidies have been a double-edged sword, offering the promise of affordable gasoline while bleeding the nation's finances dry. The fiscal burden of these subsidies has often overshadowed their intent, diverting resources from vital sectors like healthcare, education, and infrastructure. The subsidies, while well-intentioned, became a symbol of economic inefficiency, market distortions, and fiscal vulnerability. In a resolute stance, President Tinubu declared the end of an era during his ina

A HEARTFELT FAREWELL TO MY FELLOW MASS COMMUNICATION GRADUATES

By Ishaq Bilal  As we stand at the threshold of a new chapter in our lives, I find myself filled with both joy and sadness. Today, I want to extend a heartfelt farewell to my fellow graduates of Mass Communication, a journey of six years that we've shared, and now, one that diverges into countless promising paths.  Our time in the Mass Communication program has been a whirlwind of knowledge, growth, and unforgettable moments. From those early days of introductory courses to the intense research projects and late night editing sessions, we've weathered it all together. Today, we emerge not just as graduates but as storytellers, media mavens, and communication connoisseurs.  In the lecture halls, we've been inspired by professors and Dr. who ignited our passion for media and communication. We've debated the role of journalism in society, dissected the power of advertising, and dived into the fascinating world of public relations. Each class was a stepping stone, bringing
