Hello Habibi,

Last week, we took to the streets to express our dissatisfaction with the government of the day over the economic hardship facing us. To cut the short story long ??, Got up early this morning to make my way to the park before the "Lagos Rush" only to be greeted by increased transportation costs attributed to black market purchases as a result of fuel scarcity. This is barely 24 hrs after the presidential speech but then, Welcome to Nigeria.

This week promises to be fun, with Big Brother Naija, Bobrisky out of prison, Olympics, pre-season etc. We also have a lot in store for you from Grants, Scholarships, Job and Fully funded opportunities all thanks to the collaboration with Pearl tv. kindly do well to subscribe to own bulletin, leave a comment and give a thumbs up.
