Parenting is a huge responsibility

  Claudia  Dear Parents, I hope we're not leaving the responsibility of "raising" our kids to teachers and helps alone. Money is not all it takes. Infact money is a small part in raising children. When you do get to spend time with them, What are you talking to them about? What life lessons are you sharing with them? How do you resolve issues among them? How do you relate with them? Especially your sons. I hope you're not just buying them PS5 to play their lives away. Are you teaching them grooming and cleanliness?

NIS Commissions Technology Building in Abuja

  Yours Truly In Abuja for the official commissioning of the Nigeria Immigration Service technology building at the NIS headquarters. The NIS has experienced tremendous improvements and development under the leadership of Muhammed Babandede MFR. The project which began in 2018 by Julius Berger construction company has now finally been completed and set to take off as the information hub and communication centre of the NIS. The centre will serve as an intelligence sharing unit that would work in collaboration with other security and intelligence structures in Nigeria and across the globe. The event would be graced by serving ministers and heads of service as President Muhammadu Buhari officially declares the building open. This project is one of the milestones of the Muhammadu Buhari led administration and an achievement of the Honorable Minister of Interior who is on a mission to "set a new security agenda for Nigeria".
