Advice for my people that are still in school

While tech skills are in high demand, not everything is about coding or design. If you’re still in school, especially in the social sciences, engineering, or health-related fields, there are alternative pathways that can position you for global opportunities, particularly with international organizations and NGOs. Here are a few to consider:

📌 For Students in Political Science, Public Administration, and Sociology:

🥇Consider learning Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E). As global development programs expand, the demand for M&E specialists is rising. International NGOs, multilateral institutions, and development agencies constantly need people who can assess the effectiveness of projects and guide data-driven policy decisions.

📌 For Students in Engineering (especially Chemical), Geology, Geography, or Environmental Sciences:

🥈Look into Sustainability Analysis. More importantly, learn Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), emission modeling, and global sustainability standards like GHG Protocol, ISO 14040/44, or SBTi frameworks. These are in high demand in the global green economy, from consulting firms to development finance institutions and climate think tanks.

📌 For Students in Health Sciences (non-medical fields like public health, demography, epidemiology, etc.):

Learn R for Epidemiology. The ability to model disease spread, analyze health data, and conduct statistical research is highly sought after by public health organizations, global research centers, and NGOs, especially in post-pandemic health security work.

🎯 These suggestions are based on my personal experience working with international organizations as a freelancer. I've seen how these niche skills, when aligned with your core field, can open doors to global opportunities without needing to pivot into traditional tech roles.

Be open-minded and align your education with global needs. All the best

In 1953, Iran had a democratically elected prime minister, Mohammad Mossadegh, who committed what, in the eyes of the British Empire and the United States, was an unforgivable sin: he nationalized Iran’s oil industry.

For decades, British Petroleum (then the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company) had extracted Iran’s wealth, leaving the Iranian people with little to show for it. Mossadegh’s move was a bid for sovereignty, dignity, and the right of a nation to control its own resources. The response from the so-called “free world” was swift and brutal: a joint CIA-MI6 operation, code-named Operation Ajax, orchestrated a coup to overthrow Mossadegh, using black propaganda, bribed politicians, manufactured riots, and false flag attacks to create chaos and justify intervention. Hundreds died in the streets of Tehran as the Shah—an autocratic monarch—was reinstalled with American and British backing.

This single act of imperial violence shattered Iran’s democracy and set the stage for everything that followed: decades of dictatorship under the authoritarian Shah, the rise of the secret police (trained and armed by the CIA), the deepening of anti-Western sentiment, and ultimately the 1979 Islamic Revolution. It’s not a stretch to say that the roots of today’s tensions, the cycles of violence, and the specter of war all trace back to this original sin. The aftershocks of that coup are still being felt, not only in Iran, but across the entire Middle East.

Yet, in the American imagination, history often starts with the hostage crisis, or with the latest missile launch, or with the rhetoric of “rogue states.” We’re taught to see Iran as an irrational enemy, a threat to “our” interests, never as a nation whose modern history was violently derailed by foreign powers seeking oil and geopolitical dominance. The coup became a blueprint for U.S. and British interventions around the world, fueling a legacy of distrust, blowback, and endless war.

This is not ancient history. The U.S. government only formally admitted its role in the coup in 2013, after decades of denial and the destruction of key documents. The British government’s involvement was only acknowledged even more recently. The details are staggering: CIA operatives posing as communists bombing mosques to stir up religious opposition, paying mobsters to riot in the streets, and bribing editors to print fake news-long before “fake news” became a household phrase.

So when Americans beat the drums of war with Iran, or wonder aloud “why do they hate us?”, we have to reckon with the fact that the U.S. and U.K. destroyed Iran’s best chance at democracy for the sake of oil profits and imperial power.

Imagine if a foreign power overthrew your government, installed a dictator, and then lectured you for decades about freedom and democracy. Imagine if, every time you tried to chart your own course, you were met with sanctions, threats, and military intervention.

The story of Iran is not unique. It’s a microcosm of the broader pattern of Western interventionism: democracy is celebrated only when it aligns with the interests of empire. When democracy threatens those interests—when a nation dares to control its own resources, or refuses to play by the rules of the global order—it is crushed, and the consequences are borne by ordinary people for generations.

This is not about excusing the crimes or authoritarianism of the Iranian regime. It’s about understanding the context that gave rise to it, and the role that Western powers played in destroying the possibility of a different, more peaceful future. It’s about recognizing that the seeds of today’s conflicts were planted by yesterday’s coups, sanctions, and covert operations.

If we truly want peace, if we want to avoid another catastrophic war, the first step is honesty. We have to confront our own history, acknowledge the violence committed in our name, and reject the amnesia that allows us to repeat the same mistakes over and over. Until we do, every new crisis will be haunted by the ghosts of 1953—and the world will continue to pay the price for our refusal to learn from the past. - Tim Hjersted | Films For Action

In the early 2000s we were reminded daily on news media about the presence of WMDs in Iraq which was the pretext of US-led invasion of Iraq to topple Saddam and no weapon of mass destruction was found in that country. The invasion provided a fertile ground for criminals to operate which led to creation of daesh in 2010s
The same actors and collaborators are selling us another lie I hope sensible wont buy it.

Quenda with the double and an assist for Portugal U-21 against Poland 2nd half is still ongoing

When I said some things are off limits even in warfare some of you said there's no other to prosecute a war- now your fav attacked a sovereign nation you all are now saying they should retaliate in a certain. The double standard and changing of opinion when it doesn't suit your favorite is mind-boggling.
Meanwhile, Iran is a paper tiger deceiving those wants to be deceived, they lack bite.

Oil price is rising as well as defense stocks maybe.

Who is watching Euro U-21 tournament? Quenda did well against France yesterday same as Forbs

Tony Pulis made Gbabry sit on the bench for some unknowns we all know what Gnabry achieved so far but same can't be said for the ones he was benched for. KdB was benched for Oscar despite he been the better player. KdB has won it all in club football but Oscar is languishing in football wilderness.

If ur business close down because someone stole from ur company , then u are a bad business manager.

Business managers put up measures to control risk of fraud. The simplest of ways in which companies protect themselves is to require employees at the point of onboarding to provide verifiable guarantors who have good standing in the society.

Business owners protect themselves by having a very sound internal control/audit system in place. They also take insurances like Dangote and most banks do . They even take insurances on key officers and directors for their actions and inactions that may cost the company huge sums of money . If the business decides to have a poor risk management system in place, then that's a shame.

We are talking about multinational businesses here, not karakata Nigerian enterprises.

This is ur sabotage talk, na u know why u dey insist on it sha.

So the employees at Credit Suisse and Oceanic Bank no get guarantors, and no risk management system was put in place to prevent sabotage?
You go dribble yourself past corner flag like Pius Ikedia without delivering a point. No be everything be argument

I run a business and some employees stole x amount of equipment and products during foundation stage and when the business become operational, yet we are meant to believe these actions aren't sabotage. How many businesses have closed down due to acts of sabotage like those. Credit Suisse had to be rescued by another sometimes last year or so due to employees sabotaging the bank to its knees, what about Oceanic Bank?

Seun is a master manipulator, and it shows.
That useless block button he rolled out recently is the biggest evidence. Why announce a feature that barely works? A block that expires weekly? What kind of circus is this?
It’s obvious he wants to force users into reconciling, banking on the fact that after blocking someone 3–4 times, most people will just give up - unless they’re completely jobless.
Why can’t a block be permanent like on every normal platform? And why can I still see posts from people I’ve blocked just because someone quoted them?
Let’s call it what it is: manipulation masked as moderation.
Dude isn’t just indecisive - he’s a control freak in admin clothing.
