2021 into 2022 (365/365 )

 31st December 2021, It's 365/365 and am grateful.  Hard to quantify this graditude am ending the year - but Am just, just so Thankful to God.  For me 2021, flew by fast, it was extremely busy on my job, it's been an intense roller coaster from May 2021 up until the last two weeks of December 2021. We saw record number of Nigerian international students, progressing for studies with the vast majority going for Post graduate programs - and attracted by the possibilty of accessing the UK new graduate route visa scheme that allows international students after graduation to remain in the UK for another 2 years and seek post graduate work experience.  Despite the impact of an ailing Nigerian economy and the pandamic that has all but made travel and study more cumbersome, the resilience of Nigerian international students to "Move" forward despite these obstacles was quite encouraging for me,having been in this sector over the last 11years - The downside to the massive gro...

Fighting to stay Active

And then ?🙄  And oh by the way what will CNN now do? It's worst nightmare is gone,the one thing that truly showed they were never objective about any news -  even though they like all other liberalist organizations, they over use words like "fairness " etc,and having"all sides to the story ...
