Why the Nigerian army flag has Arabic inscriptions

The Eagle: The eagle represents the graceful power of the Nigerian Army. In various cultures across the globe, the eagle is revered as a towering symbol of grace, power and elegance. Just like an eagle, the Nigerian Army maintains keen surveillance during times of peace and strikes with brutal precision and eye-popping decisiveness only when it has been provoked beyond tolerance. The two interlaced triangle-like six-pointed stars: This is the first symbol of Nigerian unity and it was first struck by Governor-General Lord Lugard in 1914. This was put in place when the Northern and Southern Protectorates were merged to form one nation, which explains the interlacing of the two stars.

Delay not Denial--ms Linda Ikeji

Inspiring piece from Ms Linda Ikeji, delay is not denial The first time I stepped foot outside of Nigeria was in November 2011. I was 31. Before then, I'd never entered an international flight.

Sometimes the delay is God preparing you for greatness beyond what you even envisioned. So...

The Awards Season The red carpet turned black this year, as awards season attendees rallied to support the Time's Up and Me Too movements following the accusations against Harvey Weinstein and others at the end of 2017. Time and again, the stars stepped out to shine a light on the treatment of women and issues of sexual harassment and abuse in the industry In addition to the black dress code, the Golden Globes in January also saw eight of Hollywood's best-known actresses invite an activist as their guest for the evening - from Emma Watson, who was accompanied by Marai Larasi, executive director of Imkaan, “the only UK-based, second-tier women’s organisation dedicated to addressing violence against black minoritised women and girls”, to Meryl Streep, who was joined by Ai-jen Poo, the director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance...
