28th September annually is International Day for Universal Access to Information.

28th September annually is International Day for Universal Access to Information.

We commend all those individuals, groups, NGOs, Charities, Foundations and others who engage in one form or the other of making information accessible to all. 

God bless your labour and work of love.

May we not do anything in vain.

Remember Romans 10:15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!"

Remember the ultimate law is love.

God is love.

There is no answer outside of God.

Your life in God is most important.

In all your research, submit to Jesus Christ and be fervent.

When you look at all these fibre optic cables that transmit information through servers and waves and all, you cannot but worship God for the awesome intelligence He has given to human beings!

When we access information we are being linked with the knowledge that others do know world over.

But in rural areas like in every country but in particular in Nigeria, what is the level of access to information that our brothers and sisters in the villages have?

Do they have power, solar or electricity to access information?

Do they understand the language information is being communicated to them?

Do they need the kind of information they get? Is it relevant?

How can we help to contribute to the widespread access to information even in our surrounding?

Many ways exist, for example I give out radios, buy newspapers, broadcast messages, news and music from my office. How do you spread wholesome information?

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
