Amy Seilloraa🇸🇱🇮🇪🌍

I’ve been watching videos and google pictures of @ucddublin and desired to learn within its walls, get lost in the pages of extensively researched articles in its library and be taught in an institution known for academic excellence! Miracles do happen! @IrlEmbFreetown 🙏🏾

Many writers ask me where they can submit their work. I have compiled a list of magazines you can submit to and what they pay. Please retweet so it can reach more writers who need this. 1. Propel magazine £20 2. Spectrum literary journal $25-100 3. The Southern Review $25-$300

What better way to start the weekend? See you tonight….🥂

1 year later, our Mother brought home a Master’s Degree in Diplomacy and International Relations!😊 No words; just pride & gratitude! A WOMAN I STAN👑 Congratulations Mama🥂

I have nothing to prove to anyone, but for the sake of posterity, I feel compelled to say this. I’ve always tried to “stick to chess” on Twitter, not out of fear, but out of reverence for the sacred work we do. This work is about children and giving them a fighting chance to belong in a world that too often forgets them. It would be terribly selfish to let my personal opinions or politics smear the integrity of this important mission. But I worry now. I worry that we’re becoming so divided as a people, so consumed by suspicion and tribal lines, that we’re losing sight of what truly matters. And if we continue on this trajectory of hate, the ones who will suffer most are the very ones we claim to love, our children. It is simply untrue and deeply unfair to suggest that I favor any tribe or ethnicity. In all my years of living, the thought has never even crossed my mind. I have stood in IDP camps in Maiduguri and Yola. I’ve held hands with children in Bayelsa, Cross River, and Delta etc. We have supported education projects across every region in Nigeria, and now in over 20 countries across Africa. In all my travels, what I have seen is not tribe or religion, but talent, possibility, pain and deep suffering. I have made it my life’s work to stand in the gap for these children and be a voice that compels the world to be less indifferent to their plight. That should be our shared mission: to stand in the gap, together. Not as Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, or Ijaw. But as Nigerians. As humans. If we allow those who shake the jar to pit us against one another,we will fail the children and leave behind a legacy of hate. And that would be a tragedy too great to bear. I am proudly Nigerian. And my life will always remain committed to helping every child, no matter where they’re from, find their place in this world. Because in the end, the true measure of a nation is how fiercely it fights for the children it did not birth, but chose to love anyway.

Today, I’m honored to participate virtually on the status of social protection programs for girls in Sierra Leone whilst highlighting my work in this space. Here’s to a better future for our girls everywhere! Time: 6:00pm GMT Zoom: unicef.zoom.us/j/93088390588

⚠️ Over 2 billion women and girls lack access to #SocialProtection, exacerbating their vulnerabilities and structural poverty. This is particularly pronounced in the domestic work sector: ❌ Over 50% of DWs are not legally entitled to social protection. ❌ More than 80% of DWs are in informal employment, with no access to social protection. 🎙️ At this high-level side event hosted by @UNICEFSocPolicy at the #CSW69, our leader Sonia George will address the gender inequalities faced by DWs and how ensuring their full access to social protection can help tackle them. 🔑 Social protection is key to advancing #GenderEquality and #DecentWork for #DomesticWorkers!

Jay's (not his real name) father was a well known religious figure. The family is wealthy and he married into another wealthy family. His wife was gorgeous and accomplished but he had one weakness. He slept with maids and househelps in our estate. I was shocked when I found out.

I highly recommend lavatory mirror selfies… Thank me later!🤌🏽 #SapPhire…

@FrancisTuray8 Thanks for sharing.. Can you please indicate the time?

The legal systems of most democracies around the globe have contributed immensely to the growth of their respective jurisdictions. This has been considered to be so, because, their operations have been conforming to the modern existence of civilization, and the laws its drafters have been taking to Parliament for enactment have been proven to be befitting their social, political, and economic situations. Law reform is very important to any legal system and any country. The law of a country cannot remain static but must keep abreast with the political, legal, economic, and social developments of society. Invariably, there will be areas where the law is unclear, complicated, or inaccessible. It’s upon this backdrop I beacon you to join @WilliamsYada_H, Chairman of the @LawReformSaLone, in their nationwide consultation meeting on the review of the Police Act, 1964. Don’t miss out on contributing towards the enactment of a new police law.
