 Alright, thanks for staying with us. In case you did not know, today is International Teacher's Day and where's my video? I want to play one short video quickly. Yes, there's a video from Teni the Entertainer. If they can just quickly cue my video for me. Alright, so October 5th recognizes today as World Teacher's Day by the UNESCO and it started in 1994 with the aim of honoring the adoption of UNESCO ILO recognition. The theme of World Teacher's Day is the transformation of education begins with the teachers. Everybody that knows, know that. So teachers are, how do I put it? Teachers have the capacity to actually put you on the trajectory for growth and success, you know, very early in your life. They're very important. I remember my oldest son, the first teacher he ever had. I think when she went to a leave, he kept on crying nonstop. She was such an inspiration. She made him love everything about literacy, you know, everything about schoolwork, everything about what they called it in again. Don't forget the elementary level. They are older now, you know. Everything about math, English, at that level he fell in love with schoolwork because of Mrs. A. Gozway. I can never forget her name. She was such an amiable person, you know. And, you know, for every time we get the opportunity to celebrate teachers, we must tell them they are loved. And I really will, I really, I'm hoping and praying that we get to a Nigeria where it is not the people that are unable to pass Jam. That combining 10 YR results are the ones going to Teachers College. We are now getting people that have straight A's. We have people that have like, you know, 300 over 400 or 350 over 400 in Jam. They are the ones. Yes, and they are passionate, you know. We want the most brilliant minds to be in the educational space compared to what we have now. But what's your experience with your teachers quickly? So what you said about teachers discovering talent. So I take my reference from Beyoncé. I think her teacher was the one who discovered and told her you can sing, you're a performer. So teachers have their ability. And I feel like being a teacher is even a special grace because it takes a lot to become nurturing, especially for the smaller ones, the younger ones. You have to be very patient. And not everyone has that capacity. I've had very good experiences with my teachers when I was small. And I still remember some of their names and I still speak with some of them because they had so much good impact in who I am and, you know, my focus right now. I've had teachers that told me I was talented in this and some of the things I'm doing today are some of the things which some of these teachers have told me in the past. So I celebrate teachers today. We love you. How are you? I think my dad was my biggest teacher, you know, especially for Mads and, you know, all of that. I mean, he was very strict, but he would flog me. When you get it right, he'll say, Hey, now you're my daughter. You know, stuff like that. So he really did. They were very my parents are very active, you know, in my school of my mom was for English, because she was also an English teacher as well. You know, so she's English homework. Dad is Mads homework, you know, so they played a huge role for that teaching experience for me. In school, I did get close to some of my teachers, you know, but it was never that, you know, some people are extra with the closeness, you know, you see. So I was just that low key student and, okay, oh yeah, we know how, you know, we know our talent, you know, they guide me and stuff, you know, but for me, my parents were my biggest, you know, teachers for me. Well, I've had really nice teachers over the years, you know, but there's a particular teacher I had. She used to take us English and tears in my secondary school, New Bridge, you know, Mrs. So till today, if I, if you walk around me and you are, you know, those who don't work with sleeper, you've been hearing the noise. Who is that walking down the, like she will, she will, she will punish. So you don't, you know, you're a lady as a lady, you're supposed to walk straight, you're supposed to, you know, you walk like noiseless walking. So till tomorrow, if I hear people dragging their feet while walking, Eric's me. You know, I went to a Catholic boarding school and trust me, it did play a whole lot, you know, the whole how you have to be in line, how you have to do everything. Then refectory, there's timing and I was a laggard. Well, you know, I was, I was really small. So they just used to pity me. Everybody out of the hostel and you just see me with my shoes and everything. He's just like, what's wrong with finding, what exactly is your problem? And then all the seniors would like me, so I didn't really used to get punished. I just, you know, you know how you silently just escape from things. A lot of things. That's how I was, you know, that's really how I was. All right, Gloria, let's start with you. What did you find worse in the news? Today I found something rather interesting and historical. In the East Sea, sorry for those who are coming from Umuahia, if I don't pronounce it correctly. In the East Sea Niugutown of Amakama in Umuahia, South Luku government area of Abia State, it's a famous and ancient tree known as Amakama Wooden Cave. What makes Amakama Cave unusual is the fact that it has a huge hollow that can comfortably contain up to 20 adults. The gigantic size of the hollow is not so surprising as the tree is said to be as old as the ancient community of Amakama. It's a whole lot of write-up. It was gathered that the tree dates back to the era of slavery when it served as a refuge for persons who were fleeing from colonial and slave masters. So what caught my attention about this is it took me back when I was small, so I did not grow up in Nigeria. I grew up in Cameroon. So when I was small, my dad would bring us to Nigeria for holidays and we would go to the village. And when we go to the village, he would take us around showing us some of these ancient trees, the stream and all of that. So when I saw this, I felt like it was something interesting because it took me back to those times when I was small. Okay. We will visit the tree soon. How are you Mary? I have the Ethiopian Embassy reportedly banned visa on arrival for Nigerians. This is becoming disturbing. Turkey is doing it, Dubai has done it and now it's Ethiopia. I mean, what's our foreign affairs doing for the country because it's like having a green passport now is almost not yet. But wait, this is interesting because I was looking for flights and the cheapest I found was Ethiopian Airlines. Okay, it doesn't happen to you. You're transiting overnight. You don't need to have. So it's not affecting us? It's not affecting us. Let me just be checking. But it's sad. It's very sad. It's very disturbing. Foreign affairs, we need to look into it because at least we were comfortable that our African countries at least if UK and America are so hard to get, we started exploring all of that. Yes. So imagine if we can't go freely to these places again. Maybe Ghana itself will tell us. They will soon tell us. The way is going. We need visa. So I found this interesting. It says terrorists on Wednesday that's today released about 23 remaining victims of Caduna Train attack. If this is true, I am happy. It's really sad that it took this long. But the fact that they've been freed, I hear they were freed at 4 p.m. today. The secretary of the chief of defense staff action committee, Yusuf Usman confirmed their release. So I mean, thank God that they are safe back home with their families. I'm just praying and hoping that we do not see this kind of evil again. And really, that's all I can say. Alright, so let's go on a break when we come back from the break. We'll be discussing the impact of NGOs in nation building. Stay with us.
