~1.5 mins read
A University of Lagos don, Professor Yemi Oke, has described Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the most competent Yoruba leader to become the ruling partys 2023 presidential candidate.
Professor Oke in his Keynote address, on Tuesday at the launching of the Ogun State Chapter of South West Agenda for Asiwaju Tinubu 2023 (SWAGA 23) disclosed that there is no leader in the entire South-West Nigeria who can beat Asiwajus achievements, hence, the decision of the group to work for his emergence as the APCs presidential candidate come 2023.
The don explained that the choice of Asiwaju was as a result of his immense contributions to the development of the South-West and the nation in general.
Should any South-West politician aspire to compete with Asiwaju, such a person will have to tell us the impact he has made in Yorubaland and Nigeria as a whole.
Nobody is talking about another candidate in the party. Yorubas have come together for one purpose and our message is loud and clear, the next dispensation, we are clamouring for the emergence of a Yoruba man as the next president of this country.
We have searched through all major Yoruba politicians, all are qualified no doubt but the best of them is Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and that is what has brought us together. In unison, we are saying, Asiwaju should come out and run because of the support in all the states.
He added, in the evolution of political engagement in Nigeria, Yoruba people have played very critical roles and we can reflect the tremendous contribution of Tinubu which nobody will doubt.
Infact, most governors in the country emerged through the help of Tinubu. We believe strongly in the unity of this country without losing the Yoruba agenda.
Also speaking, the National Chairman of the group, Senator Dayo Adeyeye, said the objective of the group is to ensure the emergence of Bola Tinubu as the countrys next president.
No other person can contest the candidature of Asiwaju. I am bold to say that Asiwajus emergence would result in total transformation of Nigeria, the SWAGA Chairman assured

~1.2 mins read
Things are improving in the United States as vaccines are made available to the citizens who need them most. One thing that prevents us from getting even better results is the lack of BSN in its hospitals and healthcare facilities. Even before the pandemic broke out, there were hardly any Bachelor of Science nurses in Maine. And as many of our most experienced and qualified nurses retire, we will need more BSN designation nurses. It is extremely important that we support those who want to help us in our difficult times. Beal University wants to do its part by offering a new scholarship to nurses looking to earn their undergraduate degrees. Beal University is committed to providing dedicated nurses with access to higher education. Beals RN-BSN program gives RNs the opportunity to build on their previous education to meet the needs of nursing in todays complex healthcare system. In this program, Beal University helps students navigate a collection of key topics relevant to modern nursing. Leadership, critical thinking, and professional nursing practices are some of the skills students will learn as part of the program. While it currently seems difficult to continue your education, hospitals and clinics across the country have to work nurses to earn their undergraduate degrees. Fortunately, in Beals RN-BSN program, students dont have to put their lives on hold to participate. Beals student-centered approach to designing the program made sure it was completely online and will work anywhere. 2020 was a year full of challenges, but not without success. Over the past year, more than 70 nursing students at Beal University overcame difficulties and completed with flying colors. Dr. Colleen Koob, Dean of the School of Nursing, prides itself on the positive impact these graduates have made.
