Good day all.Welcome to another edition at the podcast.We appreciate your listening time a whole lot.Today ,we will be talking about Goal 5 of the UN SDG's which is Gender Equality.We are actually on an exciting topic today:Stay at home mums.We have heard it all.There is a great need to recognize and value the stay at home mums (whose work have made them unpaid care and domestic workers)through ensuring their payment to appreciate them and also through the promotion of shared responsibility within the household and family as appriopriate.These mum are really trying .Pls what do you say?Let's have your opinion .

Goodday all.Tonight we look at Goal 10 of the UN SDGs(Reducing Inequalities) as we look at the upcoming 1kilometer walk being organized world wide by The Irede Foundation on 9th April 2022.Mr Gerald from The Irede Foundation speaks to The Bow .

Welcome to the Eat It series.Here we talk about the need to eat good food & have a great health(in line with the UN SDGs goal 2 Zero Hunger and goal 3 Good Health & Well-Being Of The People).As one of Nigeria's advocates for ACT4FOOD ACT4CHANGE, I will walk you through this series (that was prompted by the adulterated palm oil story that hit newsrooms across Nigeria late last year).We have found out that people in some restaurants and hotels across Nigeria now cut corners to cook food and serve to their customers using ingredients that are detrimental to our health.These cooks have seemingly evaporated morals ,cooking ethics and integrity.They just feel its right to cut corners and make profit.Welcome to todays episode THE NIGERIAN FOOD SYSTEM:THE BACK STORY.

Welcome all to todays exclusive edition of THE WORK IT SERIES.We look at BANANA VILLAGE & MONKEY VILLAGE ( 2 slums in Garki District in the heart of Abuja).We look at the work life & economic growth of the people of this village's (UN SDG goal 8) as it pertains sustainable cities and communities(UN SDG goal11).These slums are very close to the old federal secretariat Abuja and were areas of active demolition after this production.Do you think the FCT should continue to demolish these slums or build a low cost housing for these people?Will these people be able to recover from this demolition with the present economic realities in Nigeria?Pls we need your opinion.

We look at the need for portable water in Abuja.

Welcome to todays programming at THE BOW. Today,we look at Goal 16 of the UN SDGs as we narrow down on INTEGRITY(following months of our previous episodes on issues like Eye Service,Courtesy,Stick-to-itiveness & African Time).Integrity is what will make us actually achieve all of the UN SDGs with a sincerity of purpose & focus.The Efiks will say : " Eto ese mmong ese kpa mmong"(what is bad is bad) and so the person with integrity knows that you JUST have to do the right thing(a remark my kid sister Arc Erica Nwanyanwu will always drum to my ears).The Yorubas will say

"Sokoto to n ise oko lo n gbe"( Your labour yields your affluence) which we simply know that it means a good name (integrity) is better than riches.Our intellectual mentality has to change for us to recognise that we have little time on our hands to just do the right thing with a clean integrity and thereby achieve the UN SDGs before 2030.Our integrity is key because our time is NOW.

Welcome to todays programming at THE BOW. Today,we look at Goal 3(Good health and well being of the people) as we focus on Female condoms.The woman has to recognize her reproductive rights.Months of talking with Doctors and Pharmacists,the females in these profession told me these :1.The female condom is uncomfortable and so that's why a lot of women don't use it.

2.The women who use it do so because their male sexual partners refuse to use the male condoms.

3.The companies producing female companies really don't send a lot into the open market for females to purchase.

Welcome to todays programming at THE BOW. Today,on our Work It Series, we look at the topic UNETHICAL YET PROFITABLE.Its an inconvenient truth that the rate of unemployment is high in Nigeria. Sadly ,people cut corners(as they run their own small businesses) to do service delivery and yet they make profit.Most of these unethical procedures come as the businesses strive to survive amidst multiple taxation that surrounds them.

Today on our programming of THE WASTEAGE SERIES, we start a new exclusive sub series on Celebrities and Waste.If a celebrity can influence people then let their influence be in terms of waste management .It's certainly time celebrities recast priorities towards the environment and the UN SDGs.Today we talk with a singer Mr Joe, a member of the Infinity Group (aka the 2007 "Olorioko song " group).Recasting priorities demands that celebrities arise NOW and use their influence on all their social media platforms to engage their fans and also personally practice decent waste management (and not fly tipping) inorder to properly manage municipal waste around them(where ever they go) and by that achieve the UN SDGs.

On this day,we end our mini series called INJECTIONS OR TABLETS (inline with the Goal3 of the UN SDGs:Good health and well-being of the people).Pharm Ngozi at Port Harcourt walks us through the need for injections and tablets.This mini series is to promote drug use when sick and not avoid treatment because of pain or discomfort.Mean while,please listen to todays podcast of the mini series and feel free to please listen to The Bow TB by visiting our new URL
