Tanzania policy of kicking pregnant girls out of school is shameful

This is a serious issue that i expect many people will unite to Protest, how can we be making one step foward, two steps back? This does not make any sense in today's world, in a country that is still developing, in a country where the level of literacy is still progressing.
This is totally unacceptable from such a respected leader.
Denying girls an opportunity to get Education has a direct impact both on their families and on wider society it actually perpetuates poverty and is against human rights.
Girls deserve education as equally as boys, and more work needs to be done to ensure that they have access to reproductive health education so they can make safe choices for themselves and must be in a supportive educational environment.
A number of studies have shown that increasing the number of girls benefiting from education has a positive effect on a country's per capital economic growth,
So really there is no justifying reason as to why pregnancy should stop a girl from pursuing education.

I hope this is just a bad joke.

Taking risks can give us a lot of benefits than we mostly think as follows, Taking risks opens our minds to new challenges and new opportunities that we have always been eyeing and haven't taken a step to. For example i am very shy person and i really don't know how to speak publicly, infarct i can faint when told to give a public sp...

SUrVing The StorM

Life is definitely not a straight journey, it comes with all form of packages that can be interesting, surprising and breaking. We are constantly learning new things everyday and sometimes when we think we know it all, the wonder of them all explodes on our face. We are human beings and so humanity comes with error. It comes with the unexpected from those we never expected, but honestly if we all held the thought and understanding that we are human beings and so we are prone to change then no one can really surprise us by anything they do or don't do. Nature can not be controlled too and things can come and take away what we think we have, there can be natural disasters , accidents or anything that takes away our peace of mind, that cost us financially or that takes our time or are so hurtful. The question is how do we survive in times of trouble?where do we go?what does our mind tell us?whom do we turn to I have learned 5 things that help me survive any storm that ...
