TUMA Hosts Personal Branding and Digital Literacy Session
Today, on July 27, 2024, TUMA successfully hosted a session at John Pickering Senior Secondary School, focusing on personal branding and digital literacy. Mentees learned strategies for online presence and digital tools.
Eye on the Future: Our journey to advance a better future is an uncompromising undertaking
Yesterday, 21 #July2024, I had the pleasure of leading the sixth session of @Tuma2022#mentorshipprogramme on Personal Branding and #digitalliteracy.
We're building the future today!
Meet the Masterminds Behind Our Mentorship Journey: The 2024 Coordinating Team!
Ever wonder who curates the magic behind The Ultimate Mentorship Association (TUMA)?
They're alumni from our very inaugural mentorship program 2023, recognized for their dedication and leadership.
We're rolling on the dice of a brink with youths sailing on ill-driven perceptions of worldly satisfaction.
We're the farmers who cultivate Coos, yet harvest Kush. We're the sanctified beings who blame governments, yet succumb to immorality and suicidal actions.
An ounce of grudge is a burden to the bearer.
A pound of pride is a curse to your being.
An atom of jealousy is a bug to your dignified being.
Be real! Be you! Focus on you and empower others!
On Saturday, we conducted our 7th and 8th session on #careerguidancecounselling and #teammanagement and goal setting respectively.
The journey to impact lives and advance a better future continues with @Tuma2022.
Are you ready to join us next— impact beyond boundaries?
#TUMA successfully conducted its 7th and 8th sessions on #Career#Guidance and #Counseling, as well as #Team#Management and #Goal#Setting. The sessions, which took place yesterday, were expertly facilitated by Fatoumata J. Jallow and Serreh Darboe.
Part of my most amazing and impactful engagements includes the feeling to hold the 🎤 mic , speak out, inspire and drive change in service.
I had the honor to host the Root Concert of Nas Jobis where massive talents had been showcased by Gambia’s finest #poets and #comedians.
#August gleams with hope for another year, yet reminds me of the struggles of our #parents in giving us life through #Allah’s blessings.
The expectation of a new year is nothing but a reflection.
It’s a moment to refuel, assesss goals and make better choices and efforts.
Genuine relationships shielded with trust and woven in the hearts of mutual understanding are rare sceneries of our present generation.
Treasure those who defy all odds to believe in you.
Your circle ⭕️ might be big, but the genuine beasts are a few among the lot. Watch out!
Despite being born into a Hollywood dynasty, Drew Barrymore's childhood was far from ordinary. As a child star, her life was anything but austere, and she was thrust into the glitz and glamour of Hollywood at a tender age. However, her early experiences in the industry took a dark turn, largely influenced by her mother's choices.
At the age of 7, Drew Barrymore was already a recognizable figure in Hollywood. However, instead of a typical childhood filled with innocence and play, she found herself drawn to the seedy nightclub scene that permeated the city. It was her mother who introduced her to this world, taking her to various nightclubs, including the notorious Studio 54 in New York City.
While most children her age were tucked away in bed, Barrymore was immersed in an environment far beyond her years. She was photographed at Studio 54 at the young age of 9, surrounded by older men and thrust into a world of adult indulgence. Instead of being shielded from such inappropriate situations, she was coerced into dancing with these older men and, shockingly, even participated in drug use alongside them.
Reflecting on her relationship with her mother, Barrymore later described it as more akin to a best friend dynamic than a traditional parent-child relationship. Her mother, rather than prioritizing her education and well-being, presented her with a choice: endure the hardships of school and potential bullying or accompany her to Studio 54. For a young girl enticed by the glimmer of Hollywood, the answer was an unequivocal "yes."
The consequences of this tumultuous upbringing soon caught up with Barrymore. By the time she reached the age of 13, her life had spiraled out of control, and she found herself in a rehabilitation center. The destructive path she had embarked upon, fueled by her early exposure to adult vices, necessitated professional intervention to save her from the perils of addiction and self-destructive behavior.
This critical juncture marked a turning point in Barrymore's life, as she embarked on a journey of recovery and self-discovery. Despite the challenging circumstances she faced in her early years, she managed to overcome adversity, reclaim her life, and rebuild her career, eventually establishing herself as a successful actress and producer.
Drew Barrymore's troubled childhood serves as a stark reminder of the dark side of fame and the detrimental effects it can have on young lives when exposed to adult-oriented environments at an early age. Her story is one of resilience and transformation, as she defied the odds and emerged as a symbol of triumph over personal demons, inspiring others facing similar challenges to seek help and find their own path to recovery.
One of Gambia’s finest advocates: relentless, innovative, action-oriented and impact-driven.
TUMA couldn’t have gotten any better resource person for this session on advocacy.
Fatou Jagne Senghore, we are honoured of your service in building the next generation of leaders.

Youth are the powerhouse of every successful nation. However, an unguided and misinformed youth force with a corrupt mindset retard national development.
TUMA is taking the lead in promoting advocacy and empowering the young ones in our quest to advance a better future.
#TUMA: SESSION 5
We are excited to inform you about our fifth session, which will focus on the topic of #Advocacy: #Youth In #National#Participation. Advocacy plays a crucial role in ensuring that the #voices of young people are heard in national decision-making processes
Our lives aren’t so perfect, but we rose up from a setting where we learned how to struggle, grind, and live life with utmost happiness and contentment.
The setting teaches us what it takes to survive in our generation. From the cradle, we grew with strength.

Not everyone around your circle gives more thoughts to luxurious Tobaski outfits and elegant dress designs.
Some only hold the desire to see their siblings dress fine, and match up with their age groups. When age ages, priorities change.
If #Fear overshadows your ability to pursue your #DREAM, self-doubt will suppress the power to conquer.
Great men are fearless, yet cagey in pursuit of their dreams. Conquer your fears before you can conquer the world of suppression.
#life isn't all rosy for a #Conquest
