One of the biggest mistakes in research is jumping straight to a topic without identifying the research gap.
A strong study starts where existing knowledge falls short whether it's a gap in theory, methodology, population, analysis, or perspective.
Find the gap, and you’ll find your contribution.
Dear @Zlatan_Ibile
I’ve attached photos of me conducting free French tutorials at the University of Ibadan over the past 4–5 years. I’m confident in my ability to handle basic French lessons effectively if given the opportunity.
Thank you for your consideration.
I told my boyfriend that I didn’t get the promotion and guy just hissed and said “their loss”
I thought that was the end of it cos we all know men don’t do emotional stuff
But last night his mum called and said “I heard what happened “ and this woman proceeded to tell me how she was overlooked 4 times too..
After the call, I texted him why and he replied
“ I didn’t know what to say, but I knew she would”
🥺

These small things are not childish. They are the daily and practical realities of your life together. If you cannot agree, or at least negotiate on them, you will live in daily friction and fights disguised as marriage.
So, before you walk down the aisle, sit down and ask each other these uncomfortable but practical questions. Because at the end of the day, marriage isn’t lived in the wedding pictures, it is lived in the tiny, ordinary moments no one else sees.

3 Solo Dates Every Woman
Should Try at Least Once
Every Year.
1. Take yourself to the cinema alone. Buy popcorn.
Pick the seat you actually want. Laugh, cry if you need to. No one talking to you.
Just you and the movie.
2. Go to a cafe on a
weekday. Order a drink and one small pastry. Sit by the window and keep your phone face down for a bit.
Watch people going to work, students rushing, cars passing.
3: Take yourself on a
Saturday breakfast. Wake up early, shower, wear something cute. Go somewhere that serves breakfast, sit there and order something nice. Enjoy your meal, take some selfie.
