An open letter to a great man on International Women's Day, 2023 (TheCable)

Dear Professor Attahiru Jega,. It is a joy to address this year's International Women's Day open letter to you in this election year for Nigeria.

Your reputation of ‘administering’ a special brand of ‘jega’mycine to rein in certain political pawns and purveyors of dissonance continues to resonate. You remain mindful of your duty as a citizen and a political actor. Your decision to join the People’s Redemption Party (PRP) reminded me that we must engage, and even as some of us seek to work from the outside, some of us must do so from the inside and on a platform where we can be heard, where we have shared values with co-travelers. You remain a study of how to give power to truth. You shocked many when you left office as the election Umpire and joined a political party. I was honoured to be part of the team that crafted that policy, working with colleagues on the INEC, development partner and civil society ends.

In 1942 he designed a poster to encourage women working in the manufacturing industry and Naomi unknowingly inspired Miller with a picture of her working where aircraft parts were being repaired. The origin of this poster dates back to 1942 and was not created as a feminist symbol, but referred to symbols associated with men, such as physical strength. The idea for the poster came from J.

International Women's Day: Beautify Your Day With Colour Shades (Guardian)

The colour brown wants to build and connect, making it a colour not to wear if you have a faint heart. Chocolate Brown is a colour to wear when you want to bring some love into your life. It is therefore an important colour to include in your wardrobe when it comes to showing love. It inspires us to take risks when it comes to love (which is why most knights in shining armour wear this colour in cartoons and movies). Instead, through the magic of colour and wearing certain shades, you can bring exactly the energy into your life that you desire. Red is the colour of desire.
