This is a call to invite all qualified young people to participate in the Amplify Change Program, #YouthAmplifySRHR. The program aims to increase awareness and uptake of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services and products among young people in tertiary institutions. #srhr
This project is aimed at tertiary institutions in #Ekiti, #Ogun, #Osun, #Oyo, and #Lagos State, only. Therefore applications are open to students whose schools are in the listed states. #SRHR #Nigeria #Youths @NaijaFlyingDr @UnilagOlodo @SMPN_Unibadan
Young people are diverse and so are their sexual and reproductive health needs. It is important to equip them with SRHR information that will empower them to make life choices that will promote the security of their future. #srhr @PPact @FP2020Global @Oyekanmijr @RobinsonRhoda

In the light of the new #coronavirus cases in #Osun, let's very briefly talk about #Nigeria's (or Africa's borders). It was sometime last year that I found that probably the 4th largest concentration of Ogbomoso indigenes after Ogbomoso itself, Ibadan and Kano, is in Abidjan.
Basically, this Nigerian community has links with that part of #IvoryCoast because of trade routes that predate the British and the French, and apparently, those trade routes are still in use, which is how people made it through #Nigeria's ostensibly closed borders.
Internet service provider went down, so the thread will continue shortly.

I've seen replies that saying Ogbomoso people are also strong in #Jos and #Ghana, but for the purposes of this, I'll stick with what Mr Akin Akinbola, a much older man from Ogbomoso, told me in Paris.

The needle shifted a little further into the red zone with concerns over an expanded security vote chest, an import rate hike bound to affect fuel prices, talk of water colonies, and the CBNโ€™s continued fixation on forex.
The glue that holds up the inefficient political system in #Nigeria, and skews it against both the will of the people and a level playing field for better candidates to emerge, is the existence of slush funds that warp campaign funding.
Security votes rank high up in upholding this system.

When the existence of the security votes is taken along with the abysmal security situation across the country, the irony is not lost on observers.
