Jump and Brace: Jumping into Marriage!

Jumping into marriage


Just do it!

Those are words of encouragement you are likely getting from folks and friends pushing you into marriage. They will advise you to "just do the marriage", you will "SURVIVE" in it. SMH! I will rather tell you, don't 'just do it' in the hope to survive in it. DO IT with preparedness to survive in it. Many have been pushed to jump into marriage but fumble and tumble out of it in regret. If only they had prepared for it.

Marriage is a serious institution that requires proper preparation. If only people can prepare for marriage the way they prepare for the wedding ceremony, we would have less of broken marriages. Couples need to lay a solid foundation for marriage before jumping into it.

Jump when ready!

Those are the words of advice from me to you. Don't be pushed into what you are not adequately prepared for. 'Do it' at your own conviction of readiness. Do not let people pressure you into marriage when you are not ready for it. The pressures in a marriage you are not prepared for is greater than the pressure pushing you into it. A bad marriage may be a life sentence into a horrific nuptial journey.

Jump and Brace!

Jump and brace for impact when you are convinced you are ready for marriage. When you get pushed unprepared, you may not be able to brace appropriately for impact. But when you jump at will, having studied on your own the grounds you will be landing, you are able to put up a strong brace.

Marriage is not a bed of roses as movies or people paint it to be. You will soon be hit with the realities of its pains and gains; joy and sorrows; struggles and breakthroughs; etc. But if you are adequately prepared for the marriage jump before jumping, then you will be able to embrace the eventualities in it.
Y
relationship goals should be centered around preparing yourself for marriage. This is just my relationship advice to you.

U.I Awo Hall Executives (Team Standard 2018) Cleared of Alleged Misappropriation of Funds

The two-year war that raged between the executive members (2018/19) of the Obafemi Awolowo hall (Awo Hall) University of Ibadan and the allegations laid against them by their Hall Warden has been settled, with the executive members exonerated of all charges.  It was gathered that the excos had been alleged of misappropriation of funds and lack of accountability by the hall warden Dr. Mrs. Adedoyin Aguoru, which led to the dissolution of the executive body and a taint on the personalities of the executive members. In a joint letter signed by the president and made public by the executive members, it was made clear the proceedings from the investigation and the eventual acquital verdict given by the Students Affairs Division of the University. Below is the content of the letter:    Re: Misappropriation of Funds and Lack of Accountability   This is an avenue to state in clear terms the true state of affairs during our tenure as Hall Executives other than allowing the earlier false impres

Insecurity in Oyo State: Towards a safer Oyo State.

Blame game/Opposition game A wise man once said, "When you keep blaming others for every situation you're in, someday you’ll begin to look like you’re the mistake all along". This holds true of our politicians in Nigeria. When a new government spend a good portion of its administration to point fingers on the failures or bad gimmicks of the old/displaced government instead of thinking outside the box to proffer solutions to the dilemma at hand, soon they will start to appear incompetent and an excuse seeker. Blame game has been a sad trend in our polity in this country. The APC government at the federal level elected in 2015 spent their entire first term blaming the deposed PDP government for insurgency and insecurity. Yeah, this state of insecurity ended the PDP reign of 16 years and the same is about to end the APC reign because they've also failed to keep the nation secured. They are now a victim of the situation that brought them to be. I hope this same trend  won
