Dear young people in the #health sector; it is not about the scholarships, the conferences, the trips, the published articles, the accolades. Those are just icing on the cake. The real goal is to improve the situation of healthcare in our communities. The continent depends on us!

@DiscussingFilm What no one is talking about enough with regards to both these movies is how they represent creators & the impact their creations have had on human society as we know it. Both were amazing in their own ways. Such a great weekend for movie buffs!

Young people many times forget that what you're putting on social media isn't temporary. The same advantage & reach that you get on social media can very easily backfire. Always think before posting & move beyond the click-bait culture. The costs of not thinking can be heavy.
