✅ Do you read the newspaper every day? What are its benefits?

I don't read the newspaper every day but I read the news from my phone 🤳 everyday. I don't have access to the newspaper and also I prefer reading news from my phone so I try to read the happenings around my country and the world daily via my handset.

The benefit of reading the news every day is that you will be informed and you will also get the required knowledge to always do that which you are supposed to do.

The knowledge gained from reading the news keeps you ahead of your colleagues and it gives you more confidence to speak when you are amid your peers. I have this joy when I'm sharing with my friends verified news that they don't have an idea about.

✅ What kind of news do you usually follow?

As a student, I follow academic news, business news, and sports news. Following academic news helped me to know what is happening in the educational sector, business news, and crypto-related news also helped me to learn and earn more as a student.

I love sports so much especially football hence I follow sports News much. I learn about the different players in every team and their contracts and also I get to learn from the way they play football.

I wish I could be a footballer too but I guess it's almost too late for me because I can't join any team at the moment considering my age so I just watch to play with my friends here in school.

✅ How do most people get the news in your country?

News in my country in this 21st century is always gotten through the internet i.e. social media platforms, websites such as Daily Trust newspaper, punch newspaper, BBC, and many more.

Now a lot of people don't go to the newspaper stand to get news instead they go online to get news that is published within minutes or seconds of publication. This method has helped us to get more current news as you only need your data to access it.

✅ Do you think international news is important?

Yes, I think international news is very important also to us anywhere we find ourselves. With international news we will get to know the happening around the world at all times.

Reading international news is a way to know the things happening in other countries and that is also important because you will be able to learn new things happening in that country.

I want to invite @vickyson, @bonaventure24, and @josepha to join the contest also.
