Food for Thoughts

I found this very true from pastor . Read and be blessed.

Hi all, thot I should share this with u as sent to me.

*WAKE UP PARENTS* ❗
Years back, *poor illiterate parents* produced
🔹 Doctors,
🔹 Engineers,
🔹 Scientists,
🔹 Accountants,
🔹 Lawyers,
🔹 Architects,
🔹 Professors.., whom I will refer to as *Group 'A'*.
These *Group 'A'* Children struggled on their own after Primary 6 or Grade 12, to become notable personalities. Most of them
👉 trekked to school *barefooted*
👉 went to farms
👉 fetched water and firewood
👉 cared for domesticated animals
👉 did some work including trading after school to survive.
Now Group 'A' ,who have now become Parents themselves are *producing Group 'B' Children*
These group B children are
🔹 pampered
🔹 helped in their homeworks or home assignments from nursery school through secondary schools to higher institutions.
🔹 chauffeur driven to very expensive schools or are sent abroad to study.
🔹 they can watch movies from morning till dawn after school.
🔹 they are treated like baby kings and queens.
🔹 they don't do any household chores.
🔹 Food is put on the table for them,
🔹 their plates are removed and washed by parents or house maids.
🔹 They are given expensive cars and clothes,
🔹 not forgetting *big pocket monies to be wasted* !!!.
🔹 Their parents help them in doing their assignments.
🤔 In spite of all these, only few can *speak* or *write* correctly. 😏
🤔Group 'A' Parents cared for their own *parents* and *children*, Group 'B',their Children are still *struggling to find their feet at age 30+*.‼
🤔They find it difficult to do things on their own because they are used to being helped to think and doing things by Group 'A'. So they can't help themselves, their parents or the society. THEY ABANDON THEIR PARENTS IN THEIR BID TO ACQUIRE THE WORLD
😴 *Where do you belong* ❓
🏮Reduce the pampering and the unnecessary help you offer your children.
🏮 Let your children *grow in wisdom, intelligence and strength*.
🏮Let them face the truth and the realities of life. Teach them to grow to become *independent adults.* Teach them to
👉 fear God,
👉 respect others and
👉 develop confidence in themselves.
🤔Parents, discipline your children to become disciplined adults, *useful* and not *useless.*
Note that Life affords no greater  responsibility, no greater privilege, than the raising of the next generation.

TSA: Sokoto Uncovers N1.5Bn in 100 Idle Accounts

Two weeks after the formal introduction of the Treasury Single Accounting (TSA) system in Sokoto, the state government said it has uncovered N1.5 billion lying idle in 100 redundant accounts belonging to it in various commercial banks in the country. The state commissioner of finance, Alhaji Umar Saidu, who stated this in Sokoto on Sunday while giving an update on the system’s implementation, said government is determined to trace and close down all dormant and  inactive accounts operated by it. He said since the introduction of the TSA, there has been a massive improvement in the reconciliation of public finance figures between the government and commercial banks. This, according to him, has reduced risk of errors in reconciliation processes and has enhanced timeliness and quality of the fiscal figures from such accounts. The commissioner said the introduction of the TSA has now enabled government to regularly monitor public cash balances while at the same time ensu...

Recession: Sokoto Cancels Scholarships, Withdraws its Students from Foreign Universities

Sokoto state government has given approval for the transfer, back home, of 39 of its citizens currently in various schools in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates. In today’s exchange rate, the move will enable the government save over N500m from the policy. The government said this signals change of priorities in the payment of scholarship to study abroad. “The transfer/relocation of the students was necessitated by the need to conserve funds and apply same to more critical areas in the education sector,” the state Governor, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, said this Friday in Sokoto when he received the report of the committee instituted to advise government on the issue. He added that admissions have been secured for all the students in Nigerian schools, while arrangements have been made to ensure that none of them misses a grade level upon their return home. “As at the time we sent the children to Dubai to study last year, the state government was spending over 400 million naira per ...

Great Ways On How To Look Taller Even Without High Heels

By  FPN Most women who are petite wear high heels to look  taller. Apparently, high heels make women feel good and also make us feel sexy. For those who wear high heels to look taller, there are other ways which you can look taller without high heels. 1. Flats and strappy sandals, especially in light or nude colors, that show a lot of skin will help elongate your legs instead of just cutting them off at the ankles. When it comes to boots, look for styles that end just above your ankle, at the narrowest part of your leg, so that as much of your leg is visible as possible. You can also try a fitted over-the-knee boot, but make sure to wear it with something extra short and fitted through the waist to make your legs look as long as possible. 2. Style your hair so that it has some height and fullness around the crown. You don’t have to have a big hair look, but avoid flat and smooth styling on top. 3. When going for jumpsuit, look for something fitted and tai...
