Tiwa who is presently in South Africa, visited an orphanage there today and wrote on how emotional she got seeing the beautiful children there.
She shared these photos and wrote
“Today I visited an orphanage in Glenvista SA called “Door Of Hope” I think it is very important to try and sew a seed when I travel.
I heard about this orphanage and how it started and I decided I had to go and do my little part to help.
“I don’t even know when I started crying uncontrollably. These babies are so so so beautiful, I can’t imagine how much hardship and pain these mothers must have gone through to make such a difficult decision.
There is presently unrest in Kogi state polytechnic because of the death of a student of the institution.
The late student was killed by an Okada man because of N10 change.

[UPDATE]
Below is the picture of the Girl that was killed by the Okada man.
According to the governors of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Mr Godwin Emefiele, this is to empower eligible youths under the Youth Initiative Empowerment Development Programme (YIEDP) which was launched today.
UNIOSUN Ipetu-Ijesha Campus, is certainly not having the best of times today.
In the spirit of Aluta and solidarity, the angry students ensured a total lockdown of vehicular movement to and fro the campus premises.
According to an eyewitness, neither the lecturers nor students were granted access into the school.
Trouble started yesterday when some of the defaulting students were sent out of the exam hall for non-payment of the tuition fee.
Initially it was considered a mere threat by the students until the authorities made good their promise.
Over 70% of the students were affected by the school’s decision and this resulted in a showdown which could best be described as “action packed” .
Those affected were sent out of the halls because they are yet to pay their school fees, or unable to provide evidence of payment for this session
In the defence of the students, the union leaders argued the authority’s decision was harsh, unruly and selfish since the students would still pay the said tuition by whatever means necessary.
Most affected are the final year students as that meant an automatic extra year for them, what a way to go.
Considering the economic situation of the country, we need not go far as to why the school is in such mess.
Presently, workers in osun state are being owed over 4 months salary with no hope in sight.
This cash drought hasnt left the university’s coffers healthy either. On either sides, money is lacking.
Having said that, it is still humanly possible for the school management to cope even with the non-payment of student tuition rather than opting to send the students out of the exam hall because most certainly, they would still have to pay
However, i humbly plead with the student representatives to give peace a chance. Breaking bottles, locking gates, barricading routes wont give a lasting solution.
The children above are pupils of State Primary School Oyewole, Agege. The relationship between these kids and the pictured Okada rider is unknown.
With all the laws banning Okada riding in Lagos, this rider still risked the lives of six kids. Our correspondent managed to take the pictures after some threats.
He however pictured all the faces of the kids. We just hope that the Education department will get to do something about this kids.
