The covid-19 pandemic has humbled all of us. Coronavirus news and up-to-date information about the virus has made us to truly recognize the transient nature of life. I personally know two people that have died at my place of work this month from Covid-19. You may also know someone that has died in the last one year. Even if you don’t know anyone, the truth is that life is short even if we live up to 100 years. We should therefore be determined to use the little time we have more wisely and for eternal good. We should do great things with our time such as acting justly, loving mercy, walking humbly and spreading the message of hope regarding the new world to come. The wonderful thing is that nothing we do will ever be wasted, they will have eternal results.

Last week, I had a conversation with Dr Folasade Adeboyejo (Lecturer at University of Ibadan and CEO of a food processing enterprise) who is contributing toward solving the problem of post-harvest food loss and food waste. Find time to watch.

Do have a pleasant week ahead. Blessings.
