Life had taught me lessons. I do not see people at my cross road, because humans are not reliable.  I only see God as the author and finisher of my faith.

*R E F L E C T I O N S*

*When you live your life without anyone betraying, hurting, disappointing, disgracing or offending you, then it means you never did anything worthy.* 

*The beauty of life, is that it comes with disappointments and betrayals, from people you least expect.*

*Unfortunately, some of us spend so much time crying over these betrayals and disappointments, and end up becoming victims of all circumstances.* 

 *Remember One Thing:* *Holding unto anger is like knocking your head on the wall and expecting the other person to feel the pain. You are only hurting yourself.*

*The fact is that the world is full of annoying, naughty, stupid and ungrateful people, and you will always come across them at one point or another in life. But the best thing to do, is to deal with them with wisdom and maturity.*

*You can’t get everyone to love you, think like you or behave like you... never.*

*We must learn to tolerate and overlook certain things, we must try to bury the faults of others and move on with life.* 

*Anger, Hatred and Intolerance have caused most of the world's problems and solved none.*

*Life is short, you don't know how much time you have left* 

*I beseech you to take the pain and forgive that special person you hold grudges against, and iron out your grievances.* 

*Muster the courage and apologise to that person you have offended.* 

*Life is not measured by the amount of money, houses or companies you have, but by the positive impact you have made in the  lives of others.* 

Note:

If you don't want to progress please stop complaining no body is your enemy. 

Go here and start something new that will change your life. Enough packages for you.

REMAIN BLESSED.

THE BEST TIME TO POST ON FACEBOOK

What is the best time to post on Facebook in 2022?

There are multiple opinions about the iconic social media giant – Facebook. While some say that the two billion plus active user base means major potential for organic engagement on the platform, if you kept the current Facebook algorithm in mind.

However, there is a completely different view that says that marketing on the platform has become a lot tougher in the recent times and that the organic reach has been taking a tumble for a long time now. There is a popular opinion that claims that Facebook is gradually turning into a pay-to-play platform.

No matter which side of the spectrum you fall on, your organic efforts still play a big role in the way your brand fares on Facebook.

In the recent years Facebook’s algorithm has started focusing on friends, family, and meaningful connections. This means that the content you put up on Facebook must be developed and then optimized to drive genuine engagement.

In addition to the type of content, the timing of posting this content is quite important, just like for Instagram (discussed earlier).

Let’s take a look at the best times to post on Facebook.

 I think you may have one or two business to do on Facebook so far as Facebook is now far beyond chatting and posting updates, it is also a make place that is a place of doing business too, if you don't know Iam telling you today and if you knew it already get this ebook to take your business to the highest level.

Blow is the link to make know all it takes to be successful on Facebook and other soci media handles.

The best days to post on Facebook – Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday

Overall best day to post on Facebook – Wednesday

The safest times to post on Facebook – Weekdays 9 am–3 pm

The least engaging day on Facebook – Sunday

The least amount of engagement – early mornings and evenings before 7 am and after 5 pm

What it really means?

It doesn’t really come as a surprise that the engagement on Facebook, like other social media is at its peak in the mid-week. The safest times to post are on every day of the week from the morning to mid-afternoon. When I say safe, I mean that in these time slots the engagement is more or less consistent.

In general, the stats show that people tend to check Facebook intermittently all through the middle of the day, but the engagement reaches its peak around lunchtime when people have more time to scroll through the feeds and engage with posts that they really like.

Late nights, early mornings, and the weekend experience relatively low engagement levels. Though there is a little bit of a spike on Saturday midday, it doesn’t really seem like it is a great idea.

Breaking it further down

Facebook may have gone a little fickle and tougher to crack, but it shouldn’t stop you from going the good old organic route. As a part of a holistic organic strategy optimizing the time slots for posting is important if you want to get better exposure on Facebook.

Following is a breakdown of the best times to post on Facebook according to the nature of the business.

B2C Businesses

For consumer product businesses, like Instagram, Facebook too gets engagement intermittently during the weekdays around the break times, it may be the lunch hours or the afternoon break. So, the time slots that work best for B2C businesses are 9 am to 10 am then between 12 noon and 1 pm and then from 4 pm to 5 pm.

B2B Businesses

For this category, the best times to get engagement for your posts on Facebook would be when the brain just needs a break from it all. So, here the perfect time is at 9 am and then between 3 pm to 4 pm.

Tech Businesses

For the technology niche the best suited times are before work, after work, and the mid-afternoon. The noon time however is the most effective. The time slots you should post on Facebook if you are from the tech industry are – 9 am, then at 3 pm, and finally at 5 pm.

Healthcare Companies

For healthcare companies, mornings are the best times on Facebook. This is pretty logical actually because the best time to catch people would be just as they are waking up. Later in the day, people are more inclined to go looking for entertainment as compared to thinking about their health. The time slots that would work the best would be 6 am to 7 am, then at 9 am, and then between 11 am and 12 noon.

Media Companies

According to the research, people tend to catch up on news and other events right when they are waking up, going to lunch, or just after they reach home. This is the best time to catch them for your posts on Facebook if you are a media company. The time slots that work best for a media company on Facebook are at 7 am, then at 11 am and finally at 6 pm.

Higher Education

On Facebook, the target audience for higher education engages the most right at the start of their workday, at the lunch time, and finally during the afternoon break time. I see a pattern emerge, do you? however, here it would be a good idea to create some content, even in the times of less activity. The time slots that work best on Facebook for companies related to higher education are 8 am, 12 noon, and 3 pm.

The concept of nation building in Africa and Nigeria as example

Nation-building is constructing or structuring a national identity using the power of the state. Nation-building aims at the unification of the people within the state so that it remains politically stable and viable in the long run. According to Harris Mylonas, "Legitimate authority in modern national states is connected to popular rule, to majorities. Nation-building is the process through which these majorities are constructed." In Harris Mylonas's framework, "state elites employ three nation-building policies: accommodation, assimilation, and exclusion."

Nation builders are those members of a state who take the initiative to develop the national community through government programs, including military conscription and national content mass schooling. Nation-building can involve the use of propaganda or major infrastructure development to foster social harmony and economic growth. According to Columbia University sociologist Andreas Wimmer, three factors tend to determine the success of nation-building over the long-run: "the early development of civil-society organisations, the rise of a state capable of providing public goods evenly across a territory, and the emergence of a shared medium of communication."

Nations are an important part of modern society. Historically, the world used to be divided into empires and kingdoms. In the modern times, however, nations or nation-states have replaced empires as the basic unit of organization (Gambari 1). As an integral part of the modern world, therefore, Nigerians are rightly concerned about nation-building. Nation do not happen by mere historical accident, rather, they are built by men and women with vision and resolve. Nation-building is therefore, the product of conscious statecrafrt, not happenstance. Nation￾building is always a work-in-progress, a dynamic process in constant need of nurturing.

Since Nigeria‟s independence, the greatest need of the country has been to weld together a unified entity from the desperate communities whose members retain primary loyalties to the smaller units. The major political parties in the First Republic- the Northern People‟s Congress (NPC), National Council of Nigerian Citizens (NCNC), and the Action Group (AG) had enjoyed the support of their respective regions of origin (North, East and West respectively) and non had a national outlook (Agi 188).

Nation-building has important aspects. First, it is about building a political entity which corresponds to a given territory based on some generally accepted rules, norms, principles, and a common citizenship. Second, it is also about building institutions which symbolized the political entity. These institutions include bureaucracy, economy, the judiciary, universities, civil service, and civil organizations. Nation-building is about building a common sense of purpose, a sense of shared destiny, a collective imagination of belonging. It is therefore, about building the tangible and intangible threads that hold a political entity together and gives it a sense of purpose. This is in consonance with this era of globalization and rapid international inflow of people and ideas make a nation viable and synonymous with achieving modernity. It is about building the institutions and values that sustains the collective community in the modern times. This paper is aimed at x-raying the challenges of nation-building in West Africa using the Nigerian example since independence.

The concept of nation building is based on the idea that a nation is more than just a collection of individuals - it's a group of people who share a common history, culture, and identity. Nation building is the process of creating or strengthening a national identity and a sense of belonging to a nation. It involves things like establishing a shared language, creating a common educational system, and promoting a shared understanding of history. 

Nation-building is the process whereby a society of people with diverse origins, histories, languages, cultures and religions come together within the boundaries of a sovereign state with a unified constitutional and legal dispensation, a national public education system, an integrated national economy, shared symbols and values, as equals, to work towards eradicating the divisions and injustices of the past; to foster unity; and promote a countrywide conscious sense of being proudly South African, committed to the country and open to the continent and the world.

 It's also important to understand that nation building is a complex and long-term process. It takes time, effort, and resources to build a strong and cohesive nation. And it's not a one-size-fits-all process - each country has its own unique challenges and opportunities when it comes to nation building. 

There are many problems that make nation building difficult in Africa. One of the biggest is the legacy of colonialism, which has left many countries with weak institutions and divided populations.

Another major problem is the lack of economic development, which makes it difficult to provide basic services like education and healthcare. Finally, corruption is a major obstacle to nation building, as it diverts resources away from the people who need them most. 

Some examples of nation building in Nigeria and Cameroon. In Nigeria, one example of nation building was the creation of the Universal Basic Education Program, which aimed to provide free, compulsory primary education for all children. This program has helped to increase literacy rates and has had a positive impact on the economy. In Cameroon, a major nation-building initiative has been the decentralization of government, which has helped to promote local development and give people a greater say in their own affairs. 

Another example from Nigeria: the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). This program was created to promote national unity and encourage young people to contribute to the development of the country. It involves young people from all parts of Nigeria serving for one year in communities different from their own, to learn about different cultures and to promote understanding between different ethnic groups. 

Okay, let's look at the Bakassi Peninsula dispute. This was a territorial dispute between Cameroon and Nigeria that lasted for many years. It was finally resolved through a peaceful process of negotiation, which involved both countries agreeing to cede territory and create a joint development zone. This is an example of nation building through peaceful conflict resolution. 

There are a few potential solutions to the challenges of nation building in Africa. One is to promote federalism, which would allow different regions to have more autonomy and make decisions based on their own unique needs. Another solution is to promote decentralization, which would give local governments more power and resources to address the specific needs of their communities. And finally, there's the idea of "nation-building from the middle," which would involve empowering local communities while also maintaining a strong central government.

It's important to remember that there's no one-size-fits-all solution to nation building. It's a complex and nuanced process that requires careful consideration of the unique circumstances of each country. I think it's also important to remember that the process of nation building is a long-term one - it can take generations to build a strong, cohesive nation.

A COUNSELOR IS A PSYCHOLOGIST AND A TEACHER

A Counselor is a Psychologist and a counselor is a Teacher. 

Are you with me?

And Who is a teacher?

What is the position of a teacher in the society? Same as a Counselor.

A teacher is a person who helps others to acquire knowledge, competences or values. 

When a teacher teaches it only left for a learner to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in a specific field, and these services given by a teacher are not to be taken for granted. If there is no teacher, there will be no any profession.

That's why as a Teacher and a Counselor in Training I have practice numerous skills to guide and teach you. Gone are the days people have their certificates and rely on government jobs, so think outside the box, learn something new and start practicing, practice makes perfect.

 B.F. Skinner the behaviourist psychologist who believed that human behavior is shaped by external stimuli and condition, he also said 'Everything is learned through conditioning'. 

So, learn something with this unsatisfactory economic condition.

I won't talk much because it says a word is enough for a wise but what I want to let you know is that don't just relax and watch start from somewhere, dedicate to learn, be hardworking and God will see you through.

With just a little time I will provide free step by step online classes with some of my digital marketing business ideations.
