Proverb of the Month: “The one who eats has tasted the hardship of labour.”

O wera walya elyi atama. (Tembo, Democratic Republic of the Congo)
Ne mange que celui qui a gouté à la fatigue du travail. (French)
Anayekula ameonja ugumu wa kazi. (Swahili)
The one who eats has tasted the hardship of labour. (English)

To eat and say proudly that one has tasted the hardship of labour, we must set a standard that appreciates and values and valuate human labour, honesty, hard work and backed up with high morality, a new culture of self-sufficiency, self-fulfilment and progress is born; replace the culture of begging and dehumanisation, which is sadly becoming a challenge and the existential threat facing our various societies. Labour made of doubt, sweat and hope.

Celebrating the International Widows Day.

As we celebrate the global anniversary of International Widows' Day, which takes place annually on 23 June, we must raise awareness about the challenges widows face worldwide. Think of poverty, discrimination, social isolation, loneliness, financial malady. From genuinely showing that we mourn with the widows, we must take every necessary step to minimise their boresome, loneliness, sorrow and financial challenges. More than that, we must provide much-needed psychological help and, most importantly, take all necessary steps not to abuse or take advantage of their vulnerabilities.

Gender Discrimination and Rights Violations: Nigerian University’s ‘No Bra, No Exam’ Policy Sparks Outrage.

Sadly, with such a 'No Bra, No Exam' discriminatory policy, Olabisi Onabanjo University, which was founded in 1982, is now under scrutiny for policies that, rather than promote academic excellence, seem to entrench institutionalised sexism. It is time for the university to erase the ugly image to avoid further damage to its educational programs and reputation. Read more: https://katakata.org/news/-1750359082

Waking up and Grabbing that Opportunity that Comes but Once.

In his Things Fall Apart, the world-acclaimed Nigerian prolific writer Chinua Achebe says, "When a man says yes, his chi says yes also." The former British Prime Minister Churchill famously said that a pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. Instead of complaining about the noise at the door when the opportunity knocks, get up and open the door. Even if you are not sure how great this opportunity is, welcome the opportunity and learn if you can accommodate it or not, rather than not opening the door at all. Beter still, rather than waiting for a chance to knock on your door, get up and knock on the opportunity's door if you wish to enter. Destiny is part of life, but destiny hardly comes to fulfilment without effort. Action brings opportunity and destiny to life. Read more: Read more: https://katakata.org/news/-1749877230

KATA KATA VILLAGE CELEBRATES BLOOD DONOR DAY (TEASER)

When health officials from the United Nations suddenly arrive in Kata Kata Village to mark World Blood Donor Day, they know they're not just stepping into a medical outreach - they're in a culture where blood is not just a biological matter but a deeply revered and guarded symbol of lineage, identity, and life, hence, to the villagers, it is precious. It should not be "wasted" like the water. Facing a mountainous task of educating the villagers on the importance of blood donation, the health officials must find a delicate balance between respecting the villagers' cultural beliefs at the same time, embarking on a journey to change their perceptions about blood donation, inspiring hope and a sense of possibility - a future where cultural respect and medical knowledge work hand in hand.

Navigating Through Two Worlds: Piccolo Visits His Village (Teaser).

Straddling the line between two vastly different worlds, having spent the better part of his life in the Western world, the elders of Kata Kata Village, custodians of tradition and memory, have extended a heartfelt invitation to Piccolo. This time, it is to honour his late father, a man who played a pivotal role in the history and development of Kata Kata Village. His legacy is not forgotten, and the elders hope this gesture will bring Piccolo back and awaken a deeper connection to his roots. Kata Kata Village waits patiently.
But will the village's charm, sense of belonging, and the enduring warmth of its people be enough to sway Piccolo? Could the visit stir something within him — a longing for community, heritage, or even companionship in the form of a local bride?
The stage is set. The drums of Kata Kata Village beat once more, calling Piccolo home. Whether he answers with his presence or merely in thought remains to be seen.
