The evil called "Junior Waec"

Saw this on facebook and felt it's worth sharing here.. In JSS3; Our educational curriculum mandates that an examination be taken. This said exam is aimed at segregating the class into:- Sciences, Commercials and Arts; as the students transit to Senior Secondary School level. Those that score well above average are moved to sciences. The school management naturally assumes this category to be the most intelligent of the bunch and they surreptitiously bestow upon them the responsibility to become the future Medical doctors and Engineers. Those whose scores were average are moved to commercials because they are terms as those whose brains lack the capacity to comprehend Physics, Chemistry and Biology. They are better of going into the world of business. And those whose scores are below average are moved to Arts. These ones are characterised as dullards and olodo rabbatas. This category of students are termed as future Politicians. Ladies and gentlemen; This is the fundamental ...

Eggshells (Episode 7)

Jessica got up from her daughter's bed as she heard a knock on her door. She wondered who would want to see her that early on a Sunday morning. She walked to the sitting room and took the keys from where it was hung on the wall and unlocked the door. The man who stood outside was a man she knew so well; a man who had been in her past, Tunde Balogun himself. He was dressed in a white Ankara fabric as his car keys were in his left hand. He was holding a nylon bag which looked like a gift pack he had got from a children's store in the other hand. Jessica gave him a straight face. "How can I help you? It's too early to come to my house." "I didn't come to see you. I came to see my daughter. Is she in? Can I go in?", he said and tried entering. Jessica blocked him. " Are you out of your mind? Who is your daughter? No one is in here so leave now." Tunde laughed. "You don't have to be so defensive, Jessica. You and I know our daugh...

The 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup is just less than 48 hours to be done with. It's been an interesting week with the two interesting semi final games played on Wednesday, June 28, and Thursday, June 29. After Portugal qualified as Group winners of Group A, they booked a semi final encounter with Chile, runners up of Group B, on Wednesday. It was the most interesting game of the cup so far, with the winner decided by penalties. Claudio Bravo, the Manchester City and Chilean goalkeeper and captain turned hero as he saved all three penalties, taken by Ricardo Quaresma, João Moutinho and Nani, while Chile scored all three of theirs. The other encounter between Group B winners, Germany and Group A runners up, Mexico ended in a convincing win for Germany as they put four goals past Ochoa, the Mexican goalkeeper while Mexico could only reply with a goal, though a stunning and long distance one by Marco Fabian, from a free kick. Germany and Chile both booked a first Confederation...

Mindset: One's greatest strength

By -
Our most powerful element is the "mind". It's the distinct difference between being successful and failing to achieve. It's what limits you and keeps you distant from your dreams. One of our quotes for this week (by Alice Walker) was about the common way we give up our power, we under achieve and never get fulfilled. Theodore Roosevelt also said: "Believe you can and you're halfway there". The mind is one's greatest strength. When the mind is weak, discouraged and negative, it mirrors into one's actions and activities and ultimately influences the end results. Positive mindset is an essential individual factor for personal success as well as collective success. We see and feel the effects of mindset around us. When we complain about the challenges we face in family, work place, school, organizations we belong to, even the challenges we have as a society or a nation; they're all related to different personal mindsets. When you see a successfu...

Relationship Series (Introduction)

By -
Some years ago, I began to have some thoughts about life. Everyday, we come across people who put up false happiness. Everyone's trying to be truly happy, and everyone surely deserves that, because there's no life without happiness. But a lot of persons are much unhappy inside than they seem to be. Sometimes the pain they feel deep inside gets to a threshold, where they can't keep on putting up false happiness, and their true feelings are more often expressed. For a good number of persons, they redefine happiness, and their definition of happiness does not bring them true happiness, though it feels so at the beginning, but at the end, it only adds to the pain they already feel. At the same time, their search for happiness causes pains to others who are averagely happy or whose happiness is below average. Relationships are part of life. Everything about life thrives on relationship. For every society to be progressive, there must be a greater part of the society with posi...

You may be consuming high amounts of sugar and it's unhealthy for you

By -

A lot of us must have heard that much sugar is not healthy, but a good number of persons still consume a large amount of it. Sugar is a carbohydrate and we have simple sugars (glucose, fructose, galactose) and more complex forms of it (sucrose, lactose, maltose). The sugar we consume is mostly in the form of sucrose, a disaccharide made up of glucose and fructose. When we consume sugar, it is metabolized to give us energy, but when high amounts of it is consumed, the body converts to body fats and store them. Sugar (sucrose) contains about 50% fructose, and fructose, which is actually the sweet part of sugar, responsible for the sweetness we taste when we take sugar is not good for us. Fructose is metabolized only by the liver which means there's a lot of work for one's liver to do. It is toxic to the liver especially in those who consume large amount of sugar (the human body is not meant to consume so much fructose). Also, sugar is ADDICTIVE due to fructose. Fructose suppress...
