5 Tips to Make the Back-to-School Hustle Smoother

Published

By Diana Tenebe, Chief Operating Officer, Foodstuff StoreSeptember is here, and for many parents in Nigeria, that means the start of the back-to-school frenzy. The mornings become a blur of getting kids ready, packing lunch boxes, and making sure everyone has what they need for a successful day. The challenge begins with finding out what is on the menu for the kids to take to school for their meals. But with a little planning, you can turn the back-to-school hustle into a smooth, stress-free routine.Here are five tips to help you get ready for the new school term and stay on top of things:1. Stock Up on Pantry EssentialsDon’t wait until the last minute to stock up on foodstuff and everyday staples. A well-stocked pantry is your best friend during busy school weeks. Think about all the things you need for quick breakfasts, easy lunchbox fillers, and after-school snacks. Items like cereal, oats, bread, pasta, rice, and cooking oil are essential. You can also grab things like biscuits, juice, and canned goods for those days when you’re short on time. Buying in bulk can also save you money and ensure you don’t run out of key ingredients at a crucial moment.2. Plan Your Meals Ahead of TimeOne of the biggest time-savers is planning your meals for the week. This doesn’t have to be a complicated, rigid schedule. Simply jotting down a few ideas for breakfast and dinner can make a huge difference. By knowing what you’ll cook, you can ensure you have all the necessary ingredients on hand. This also makes grocery shopping more efficient, as you’ll only buy what you need. Consider prepping some ingredients in advance, like chopping vegetables or marinating meat, to make weeknight cooking even faster.3. Set Up a ‘Grab-and-Go’ StationCreate a designated area for school essentials. This can be a shelf or a corner near the front door where kids can easily find their backpacks, lunchboxes, and water bottles. You can also use this space to store pre-portioned snacks, so they can quickly grab something on their way out. This simple trick eliminates the frantic search for missing items in the morning and helps teach your children responsibility.4. Create a Family CalendarA shared calendar, whether digital or a simple whiteboard, can be a game-changer. Use it to track school holidays, test dates, sports practices, and other family appointments. When everyone knows the schedule, it reduces confusion and helps the whole family stay organized. This is also a great way to help older kids manage their own schedules and responsibilities.5. Involve the KidsGetting your children involved in the back-to-school preparation can make a big difference. Let them help you with tasks like picking out what goes in their lunchboxes for the week or choosing which after-school snacks to stock up on. This not only makes the process more fun for them but also gives them a sense of ownership and responsibility. It’s also a great opportunity to teach them about making healthy food choices and understanding why organization is important.By following these simple tips, you can take the stress out of the back-to-school season and create a smoother, more enjoyable routine for everyone in the family. The key is to start early, stay organized, and work together. Foodstuff Store is also here to help, as your partner in making back-to-school preparations seamless by offering a wide range of quality foodstuff and everyday essentials.

How Primate Ayodele Foretold Peter Obi’s Exit From ADC Since July 2025

Published

on

By

In early July 2025, when the African Democratic Congress (ADC) was unveiled as the opposition coalition party for the 2027 election, Nigerians were overjoyed.They weren’t just excited for the party, but also for those who made up the party. They were bigwigs from the 2023 presidential election and two major candidates of the opposition; Abubakar Atiku of PDP and Peter Obi of the Labour Party were part of the coalition.Many Nigerians who want the APC out of the way were excited that, for the first time, opposition parties in Nigeria realised it would take unity to remove a strong politician like President Tinubu from power and because in the last election, the combined votes of opposition parties surpassed that of Tinubu, the combination of the two opposition actors was seen as a great force.However, while Nigerians were happy about the coalition, Primate Elijah Ayodele, a renowned prophet who is known for the prophetic position he occupies in global politics and governance, revealed what was to come for the coalition during a press conference.The press conference was held on the 5th of July, to launch his annual prophecy book titled Warnings To The Nations, and during the question-and-answer sessions, he was asked about the fate of the ADC, and his response left everyone surprised.He mentioned that the ADC coalition is good, but the former governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi, would pull out of the party. He stated that the coalition is divine but Peter Obi will pull out. This was barely one week after the coalition was unveiled.These were his words:“The coalition is divine. Only a spell will dismantle the coalition.“Peter Obi will still pull out from this coalition, if care is not taken. If they advise him wrongly to pull out, he cannot win.”“If Obi said he wants to pull out, use Rotimi Amaechi (ex-minister). No other person (sic) will contest, it is Atiku. But the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) believes they have won the 2027 election with these governors that they are poaching. President Bola Tinubu, you have not won yet; I am giving you a warning now, how you can win, how people will defeat you.“Anything I said, that’s what God said. And I am presenting it that way. So, if you don’t like it, it is in 2027 that you will regret it.”https://thelagostimes.com/2027-election-primate-ayodele-releases-prophecy-on-adc-coalition-says-peter-obi-will-pull-out/Just as Primate Ayodele warned, Peter Obi left the coalition yesterday Sunday to pursue his presidential ambition elsewhere.This fulfilment further shuts the critics of Primate Ayodele; many have said what he does is permutation and analysis but there is no way anyone could have thought Peter Obi would leave the coalition in July 2025, the very beginning of the coalition when the going was at its best. This shows Primate Ayodele remains a formidable and credible prophet for all nations.Likewise, on the issue of Rabiu Kwankwaso, Primate Ayodele has always maintained that he is not fully with the ADC and that he will just be there like a mole.This has been fulfilled too because Kwankwaso left with Obi to NDC, just few weeks after joining.

Nigerians have been gripped by fear since the report of the COVID-19 variant in Cross River.The Cross River State Ministry of Health has begun profiling and tracing individuals in the state who have been in contact with a Chinese national admitted after testing positive for the COVID-19 virus.Not many people expected this to happen in Nigeria, because since 2020 when the global pandemic happened, there hasn’t been a single case of the virus in the country until yesterday, about five years later.However, despite the fact that Nigeria was declared Covid-19 free, popular Nigerian prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele, warned about three times that he foresees the virus coming back to Nigeria.In his first prophecy regarding it, he warned that Nigerians should not pray to see Lassa fever and Covid-19 coming back in some areas.“Let’s pray so that we don’t see Lassa Fever again. Let’s pray so that Covid will not come back in some areas”https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS9dYjCMS/This wasn’t given attention by many because it felt Nigeria has been immune to the virus. Everyone went about their business as usual, and in the midst of all that, Primate Ayodele warned intensely again.“Let’s watch this for the World Health Organization, I see airborne disease, Covid in another dimension that can cause cough, cold, air disease, it’s a warning and that’s what the Lord said.”https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS9dj5UL5/This time, he specifically called out the World Health Organization about re-occurrence of Covid; and gave directions regarding how it would happen. He also emphasized that it was what the Lord said, but how many people actually listen?Again, during a church service, Primate Ayodele warned that Covid is coming and will happen in a different way compared to the previous one. He made it known that the way of contacting it will be different from the previous one.“Also, Covid is coming, but the way it’s going to come will be different from the way we experienced it that time. The process of contacting it will be different from the previous one.”https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS9djao7v/Likewise, in his annual prophecy book titled Warnings to the Nations, Primate Ayodele warned that another round of COVID is coming. This book was released in July 2025.“Another round of COVID will come up, and another disease epidemic. I foresee that a lot of money will be spent, and they will face some challenges in getting things right. The workers of this Body will be attacked, and there will be changes in leadership” (Page 36)All of these have fulfilled the prophecies of Primate Ayodele. Beyond the prophecy fulfilment, this is a call to relevant authorities to always listen when God is warning them about anything through his prophet.

Oba Salman Aweda, his wife and another resident have been kidnapped emidnight invasion of Olayinka community in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State.He was recently elevated by the state government.The heavily armed gang stormed the palace of at about 1:40 a.m. on Saturday, firing sporadically to scare residents before taking him and two others to an unknown destination.This is the noise we have been making regarding how they treat the prophecy of Nigerian prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church.Before now, people used to say Primate Ayodele talks about politics alone but at the moment, his prophecies about insecurity in the country has been top notch; nobody comes close if we are to rank it but it is alarming that people who are supposed to secure people have turned deaf ears.This has repeated itself several times and it seems the time has come for us to ask questions; do our security operatives enjoy hearing the death and kidnap of innocent Nigerians let alone prominent individuals?Before the recent attacks on military base, an ondo monarch, bomb attacks in Borno, attack on church on Easter Sunday, Primate Ayodele specifically warned the security operatives and the government about the impending attacks but they never listened. Now, few weeks ago, Primate Ayodele revealed that next target of terrorist in Nigeria and stated that they are planning to attack some traditional rulers. He even went as far as revealing the states where the attacks would be carried out.These were his words:“Terrorists will start kidnapping traditional rulers in some states that include Kebbi, Niger, Zamfara, Kano, Kogi (Lokoja axis), Ondo, Kwara, Akwa Ibom, Ebonyi and Yobe, with concerns that the threat could also extend to the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.”The happening in Kwara state has fulfilled this prophetic warning. Obviously our security operatives didn’t do anything about it. Now, how long do we continue like this?
