Embracing Singlehood: Why Being Single is an Empowering Choice. By: Obanla Ridwan Olawale


 


Being single has often been stigmatized as a state of being undesirable or incomplete. Society often perpetuates the idea that being in a romantic relationship is the ultimate goal, and that those who are single are somehow lacking. However, as a single person myself, I have come to realize that being single is not a negative status, but rather an empowering choice that can offer many benefits and opportunities for personal growth.


One of the biggest advantages of being single is the freedom it offers. As a single person, I have the ability to make decisions based solely on my own wants and needs. I can travel, pursue my passions, and take risks without having to consider the desires of a significant other. This sense of independence allows me to explore who I am and what I want in life without any outside influence.


Furthermore, being single provides ample opportunities for personal growth and self-discovery. It allows me to focus on my own personal and professional goals, without having to balance the needs of a partner. I have the time and energy to invest in myself and develop new skills and interests. This has allowed me to become more confident in who I am and what I have to offer, and has helped me build a strong sense of self-worth.


While being single may come with its own set of challenges, it is important to remember that it is not a permanent state. It is simply a phase in life, and one that can offer many valuable experiences and lessons. It is also important to remember that being single is a choice, and not a reflection of one's worth or desirability. By embracing singlehood and valuing ourselves for who we are, we can live fulfilling and meaningful lives, regardless of our relationship status.


Of course, being single is not for everyone, and there is nothing wrong with desiring a romantic relationship. However, it is important to remember that being in a relationship should not be the only goal or measure of success. It is possible to live a happy and fulfilling life as a single person, and to find love and companionship in other ways.


In conclusion, being single is not a negative status, but rather an empowering choice that can offer many benefits and opportunities for personal growth. It provides the freedom to pursue one's own interests and goals, and can help build a strong sense of self-worth. By embracing singlehood and valuing ourselves for who we are, we can live fulfilling and meaningful lives, regardless of our relationship status.

Kwara State Polytechnic Mass Communication Graduate Emerges Best Fellow at the 2024 Young Communication Fellowship

As I read about Mosunmola Esther Ajibade’s recent achievement, lines from the Kwara State Polytechnic anthem echoed in my mind. The anthem is more than a song; it captures the heart of the institution’s mission: "Our Citadel Of Excellence, Great Minds Have Come Out Of Thee. Our Blessed POLYTECHNIC That Nurtures Talents, Fulfills Dreams, Destinies, Hopes And Aspirations. We Love You For You Are The Haven Of Bright Mind With Great Ideas. Your Products Are Found Everywhere, KWARAPOLY, Your Praises We Sing." These lines perfectly tells the story of Mosunmola. A graduate of the Mass Communication Department, she has excelled across various fields as a voiceover artist, OAP, red carpet host, and writer. Her latest feat as the best fellow at the 2024 Young Communication Fellowship, organized by PR Nigeria in partnership with Image Marketer Promotion (IMP), adds another feather to her cap.

Corps Member Tackles Unemployment in Gombe with Fish Farming Training

A bold new project aimed at transforming the lives of 100 young people in Gombe is underway, as Ishaq Abdullahi Shehu, a dedicated National Youth Service Corps member from Kano State, turns his agricultural expertise into a community development program. The initiative focuses on modern fish farming techniques designed to combat youth unemployment and boost local food production. Ishaq, a graduate of agriculture from Kano University of Science and Technology Wudil with specializations in forestry, fisheries, and wildlife, is committed to changing the perception of farming. “Agriculture must be seen as a viable business, not just a way of life,” he explains. His program centers on the innovative Recirculatory Aquaculture System (RAS), a method that recycles water through mechanical and biological filtration to allow for high-density, sustainable fish farming while minimizing the use of land and water. Gombe, like many parts of Nigeria, is grappling with the dual challenges o...
