Dear PG students,
Research Topic:
1. What is KNOWN?
2. What is UNKNOWN?
3. From what is UNKNOWN, you will pick just one issue and "run" with it!

Dear PG students,
The potency of an INTRODUCTION section of a Research proposal is totally dependent on your understanding of the subject matter; Research Topic.
The scholarly story starts from the INTRODUCTION section but it can easily go ‘south’ from that section.
Once in a while, you should congratulate yourself for the things you have achieved and the things yet to come. It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle, always pushing forward without taking the time to acknowledge your progress. Whether big or small, every step forward is an accomplishment. Don’t wait for someone else to recognize your efforts—celebrate yourself.
Worry, on the other hand, is a thief of tomorrow. It takes away your peace of mind, clouding your thoughts with what-ifs and maybes. When you spend time worrying about the future, you rob yourself of the opportunity to enjoy the present. Instead of dwelling on things you can’t control, focus on the steps you can take today to shape the future you want. Life is about progress, not perfection.
So, take a moment to reflect on your journey, be proud of how far you’ve come, and embrace the unknown with excitement, not fear. Your future is still unfolding, and there’s so much more ahead of you. Let go of worry and trust that every effort will bring you closer to your dreams.
Earlier today, I called on H.E @JDMahama , President of the Republic of Ghana, ahead of my assumption of duty as the 7th Secretary-General of the Commonwealth on 1st April.
Grateful for his support for my candidature, and I look forward to strengthened collaboration between Ghana and the Commonwealth in the coming years.
Never thought about this before:
I have always thought that Noah was safe inside the Ark because he built it according to God's specifications. I thought that perhaps it was the strength of the gopher wood and the soundness of the architecture that ensured that the waters of the flood would not come into the Ark.
But today I encountered a verse that shifted this whole paradigm. Let's read what Gen 7:16 says ... "The animals going in were male and female of every living thing as God had commanded Noah... THEN GOD SHUT HIM IN....
Don't miss this.... even after Noah had built the Ark, it was God Himself who shut him in, in order to shut out the waters of the flood... In other translations this verse says "The Lord sealed them inside."
It is not the fact that you have locked your house that keeps you safe at night, it is not your good driving skills that keeps you safe on the road, neither it's your healthy eating habits that keeps you healthy - only God can shut you in and shut out the devil that is seeking to devour you.
Only God can do so much for us.☝️
Without Him, we are nothing.

Dear Christians
We don’t only pray and study nau
We live too.
Can we normalize sharing what life looks like from the christian perspective?
We attack believers that share what living looks like with Jesus and we consume junk on the internet

I’m a merit advocate and NO, you don’t have to remove this from your Statement of Purpose or Personal Statement. It has nothing to do with DEI. The challenges you defied while accomplishing everything on your CV speak to your resilience and commitment to academic excellence.
“I grew up in a town with no flowing water” underscores the challenges you surmounted to achieve everything on your CV. It can also be a justification for why you have a research interest related to “clean water” or “water scarcity.”
Here’s how to introduce the challenges you faced while growing up into your Statement of Purpose, in alignment with the “problem-based” introduction style that I recommend to grad school applicants:
An example:
“…I grew up in Wukari, a town with no flowing water. For 20 years, I have lived here and understand, first-hand, the peculiar challenges of the Wukari people and this has since motivated me to pursue a master’s or doctorate degree in Environmental Engineering or Public Health to enable me provide research-based solutions to water scarcity in Wukari and other Nigerian communities in lack of clean water.”
Receiving the Best Graduating Pupil Award in 7 subjects including Agricultural Science, Health Science, and Integrated Science, I was named the St. Winifred’s Nursery and Primary School’s Overall Best Graduating Pupil in 2001. Additionally, I received the Departmental Best Graduating Student Award during my National Diploma program. Upon completing my bachelor’s degree, I was one of the only two students to earn a First-Class CGPA (highest distinction) in my department and one of the only six students to receive First-Class Honors out of 1,924 graduating students, placing me in the top 0.3% of the class of 2019 at the Ebonyi State University.
Given my consistent track record of academic excellence from a young age, including teaching, research, volunteering, and leadership experiences, I am confident that I am well prepared and positioned to succeed at MIT’s rigorous graduate school. Nevertheless, consistently graduating top of my class despite growing up and facing multi-faceted challenges induced by lack of access to clean water is a longitudinal evidence of my academic grit and resilience, a quality germane to academic excellence.
Upon graduating from this program, my career goals include becoming a professor of environmental engineering and setting up the SMART-EV lab that will be committed to providing actionable research-based solutions to water scarcity in Wukari and other Nigerian communities in lack of “clean water.”
————————————
As a grad school applicant, this SoP has not only demonstrated my merit, but also underpins my resilience and commitment to academic excellence in the face of impeding factors.
Dear prospective grad students, do not throw your unique stories away. Instead, leverage them to argue why you deserve admission and funding.
