A call on the youths for preparation by Banji Joel

A CALL ON THE YOUTHS FOR PREPARATION by Banji Joel Celebrating the court victory of Sowore today is just the stepping stone to greater things, democracy and better Nigeria. But in the mood of celebration I quickly want to make it known that no one can fight a battle and win without being properly prepared for the battle. Many youths are shouting, complaining and fighting for a better Nigeria but are the youths prepared to take over?? Preparation entails all aspects including intellectual, material, financial, education, religious and psychological preparation. Omoyele Sowore today has influenced many people because he has all I have mentioned above, the psychological preparation was what made him not to break during his past arrests and the arrest by THE DSS and also that is what has been keeping him strong and going all these periods. We should not just be empty noise makers but people who speak with substances in what they speak. This is a call on the youths to wake up, work on ourselves, be a better part of our own self and only then can we command the respect we deserve and get back what belongs to us. "No one can be a winner without fighting any battle" therefore what battle have you fought and are you preparing for the battle ahead because if you are not prepared for the battle then failure is sure. Omoyele Sowore is a man of substance and that is why he has moved many people, so work on yourself irrespective of the situation. #Note_1: The obstacles you meet while preparing yourself are parts of the battles you need to conquer before you can be great. Banji Joel #Note_2: There is something unique about everyone, detect that unique aspect of yourself, develop it, be consistent and only then can you be a different person in your area and among others. Banji Joel. #Note_3: Noise making without action isn't enough, be prepared to take action now and take responsibilities for all that happens to you, don't shift responsibilities, shifting responsibilities makes you weak, powerless and inconsistent. finally, Omoyele Stephen Sowore participated in the student union while in tertiary institution and stood as a voice then, he has been relevant though silently in some areas since he was in school, he left the country but came back and started a media group in the country, was living well outside Nigeria but wasn't satisfied with the situation in the country so as been moving and pushing for a better Nigeria since he has gotten the necessary skills following all his preparations. Youths please let's be wise #My_mind Orolugbagbe Olabanji Joel A Nurse, A Writer, and A Socialist #InspiredByYeleSoworeCourtVictory, #RevolutionNow, #VictoryToSowore, #NigeriaMustWorkAgain. 24/9/19

2025 International Nurses Day Write-up by Olabanji Joel Orolugbagbe

"Caring for Nurses: The Key to a Stronger Economy" The 2025 International Nurses Day theme, "Our Nurses, Our Future; Caring for Nurses Strengthens Economies," resonates deeply with nurses worldwide. As the International Council of Nurses (ICN) aptly puts it, "Building on the success of the 2024 International Nurses Day theme, The Economic Power of Care, the 2025 theme shifts focus to the health and wellbeing of nurses." The Unseen Struggles of Nurses Nursing has evolved significantly over the years, with numerous specialities and forms of care aimed at promoting patient health, preventing illness, and facilitating coping with disabilities and nursing patients to a peaceful death. However, the emotional, physical, social, and financial toll on nurses remains largely unaddressed. Who cares for the heart that cares? The increasing workload, economic pressures, and fear of litigation have made nursing jobs more challenging than ever. Several nurses have left t...

The Reality of Marriage: Beyond Love by Olabanji Joel Orolugbagbe

Image
In my three years of marriage and what I have seen of marriages around me, I have come to realize that every day is an opportunity to celebrate love, foster understanding, practice forgiveness, and make sacrifices. Contrary to the notion that all you need for a successful marriage is love, I have learned that it takes intentional effort and investment from both partners. Sacrifices and forgiveness are just as crucial as love in making a marriage last, peaceful, and happy. Marriage is often romanticized, but the reality is that it requires hard work and dedication, which many marriage speakers tend not to speak about. Love alone isn't enough; financial stability also plays a significant role in strengthening the bond in marriage. Forgiveness and sacrifice are essential, not just during challenging times but as a continuous process. Both partners must be willing to sacrifice their individual interests and preferences to maintain peace and harmony and family growth. As the saying goes...

PRIORITIZING WHAT MATTERS by Olabanji Joel Orolugbagbe

Image
Yesterday, I discharged a very demanding patient home. As she was about to leave the ward with her daughter, she called me over for a hug and expressed her gratitude. She told her daughter that I was a good nurse and was happy that I was part of her care team throughout her hospital stay. This gesture hit me differently, and it motivated me to do even more for my patients. As an adult with family responsibilities, I have come to realize that my profession is not just a job but a source of sustenance. I have learned to prioritize my role as a nurse above every thing I was actively doing before having a family, and the appreciation from patients like this one means a lot to me. Recently, I had a conversation with my cousin, and I shared with him that the only thing that can get under my skin is being told I am not good at my job because I see it as a threat to my source of livelihood and if genuinely done, I see it as a push to improve myself. I have accepted that I have shifted my focus...
