Gada Biyu Community Engagement and Development Initiative

Help Someone, buy a Jamb form for them, NELFUND will take care of the rest.

COPIED from Kadaria Ahmed Page:

When I turned 50, I instituted a scholarship in my Dad's name
(The Mamman Marshal Scholarship) for girls in higher education from indigent families. The scholarship was initially instituted for only girls studying a media degree although it has since expanded to include other disciplines and also boys.

My Dad was passionate about education especially for girls and with support from my Mum ensured that we all had an opportunity to be educated.

It was life changing for me. From my Catholic secondary school, St Louis, to my University, Bayero, to post graduate school at Goldsmiths' , all, shaped who I am and without a doubt without that education, my story today would be very different.
So I am very passionate when I see others helping those who would otherwise struggle to get an education.

So when I found myself in Abuja recently, I took the opportunity to visit my brother and friend, Dr Akin Sawyer to commend him for the stellar work he is doing with NigeriaEducationLoanFund, NELFUND

I know what a difference an education can make first hand ,and so it was important for me to visit and also gain insight into the progress they have made in helping those who need support to start or complete their education.

I also met with one of the Directors Oseyemi Oluwatuyi who explained how easy the process is for accessing the funds.

Uptake has been substantial in the north but has not been as much in the Southeast and other regions. So if you have anyone that you believe could benefit from financial support from the NELFUND , please have them apply for this life changing opportunity. Apply here: https://nelf.gov.ng/

"CHANGING THE NARRATIVE"

First, understand this clearly: Your environment influences you daily through conversations, habits, expectations, and standards.

If most people around you think small, avoid responsibility, gossip often, reject growth, or mock ambition, that atmosphere can slowly reduce your own standards without you noticing.

Now let’s break it down properly.

1. ENVIRONMENT SLOWLY PROGRAMS YOU

You don’t wake up one day and decide to think small.

•It happens gradually.

•If everyone around you:

•Avoids planning

•Lives only for today

•Hates learning

•Rejects discipline

•That becomes “normal.

•The danger is not immediate failure.

•The danger is gradual limitation.

•You must constantly ask yourself:

•Am I thinking this way because it’s right or because it’s common around me?

•Awareness protects you.

YOU ARE A PRODUCTIVE MEMBER OF YOUR COMMUNITY AND YOU CAN BE PART OF THE CHANGE YOU DESIRE DON'T LET ANYBODY TELLS YOU OTHERWISE
