I have been admitted for a Masters in Peace and Conflict Studies at Veritas University. I have paid my first semester school fees and I trying to raise funds to pay my second-semester tuition and, hopefully, cover the remaining semesters of my programme.

[HoneyNoir @kixsinit]

How do you just leave a job without any backup or plan whatsoever!!

Electricity in Bwari is so good. They should not become unfortunate now that I am praising them oh. Been here for almost two weeks and power supply has been constant.

[Marie @TheMariaOche]

Started reading 'Born On A Tuesday' and I am hooked. Books like this are what I love. Books set in Adrica and written by Africans.

Read around my course for an hour today and I discoverer there is something called the Kimberley Process which is a certification scheme to prevent the trade of conflict diamonds. The trade of diamonds, gold and other resources fund a lot of conflict around Africa especially Sudan and Congo.

No one is speaking.Sudan is being devastated in silence while the world watches, looks away, and moves on.
How many more lives must be lost before the world decides that Sudanese lives matter too?

Sudan cannot be allowed to become the world’s forgotten tragedy. @KikaMusa @MimiNiMwafrika @AfricaInforming @ali_naka @kimheller3

Renewed my lease at my former place, then had to leave a few days later after I was admitted to my Master's to be closer to the school. My landlord has been asking me to be patient while he rents the apartment to someone else because that is how he can pay me back. I am really trying to be patient, but I am worried about how long I am expected to be patient if no new tenant comes to take the place. N200k mhan

The full, equal, and meaningful participation of women at all levels of peacebuilding, security, and decision-making processes is essential to achieving sustainable global peace and security.

I am working on an article and would love to speak with victims of conflict. If you know anyone who would be willing to speak with me, please direct me to them.

[Marie @TheMariaOche]

Most of the time, humanitarian assistance does not even get to the most vulnerable who need it the most.

Needs to be reshared

[Marie @TheMariaOche]

Staying inside your house does not even guarantee anything. Is it not in Abuja that a family was kidnapped from their home and one of their daughters killed?

[Ebibaby @Ebibabyy]

Nigerians are sharing tips on how to avoid being kidnapped lmao. There is no way to avoid being kidnapped unless you want to remain inside your house till you die. We cannot “safety tip” your way out of it, things have to change. This is a structural issue.
