"Eternal Ember: The Flame of Perseverance"
The Flame That Never Dies
Beneath the storm's unyielding cry,
A fragile flame still dares to try.
Though winds may howl and shadows creep,
Its steadfast glow will never sleep.
Through darkest nights and endless skies,
It burns, the flame that never dies.
When hope feels lost, and paths unclear,
Remember strength lives near the fear.
A spark within, so small, so bright,
Will guide you through the longest night.
Hold on, endure, let courage rise—
And feed the flame that never dies

The Human Cost of Inflation
It was another sweltering afternoon in Lagos, and the power had been out for hours. Inside a cramped two-room apartment, Tayo wiped the sweat off his forehead as he sorted through a stack of overdue bills. The numbers were suffocating—rent had increased by nearly 40%, the price of food seemed to double every month, and his eldest daughter, Zainab, had been sent home from school for unpaid fees. His wife, Amaka, stood by the window, fanning their youngest child, David, who was crying from the heat and hunger.
