ABUSE

Be very clear when it starts ; STOP IT.
Some people think that only minors can be abused. Young people and adults are also being abused especially in the workplace.
Most people keep quiet  about it because most times the abuse is perpetrated by a boss or superior.

The subject of the abuse is oftentimes innocent and pure and is shamed into keeping quiet because he or she feels embarrassed or because she doesn't want to tell on her boss.
But abuse especially if not reported and dealt with can have a negative impact on an individuals feeling of self worth and self esteem. Abuse can be detrimental to the health of the victim.
Steps to take;
Report the abuse to an authority who has the power to deal with the perpetrator usually a human resources manager.

If not dealt with because of a connivance between the HR and the perpetrator,  bypass the HR department and report straight to the MD. The matter should be taken up from there.
Also confide in a trusted friend or counsellor outside the office.

Remember, your state of mind, health and general well being is instrumental to your growth, productivity and personal success.
Abuse is a breach of relationship and moral contract.

THE GAINS AND LOSSES OF THE ABSENCE OF MR PRESIDENT: BY UWAKWE ROLAND.

President Muhammadu Buhari has been absent from duty since the last few months on a purported medical checkup in London.

The problem is that even as an acting President, Yemi Osinbanjo has limited powers to fully assume responsibility as the commander in chief, this is because most of the big government functionaries may still owe their loyalty to Mr President, couple with this, Buhari appointed people of his like minds who may not comfortably work with the acting President that will want to bring his knowledge of law and practice into governance. Hence the long absence of Mr President may eventually result to a slow down of democratic dividends. The above ...

GETTING MARRIED AND BEING SUCCESSFUL AFTER 30

Many people see the big 3.0 as a landmark age. To them at 30 you should have accomplished all your goals, gotten married and had a few kids. This view although popular is sometimes unhealthy , because real success and achievements take time. Not everyone who is unmarried at 30 will marry late or unaccomplished at 30 is a failure. For short term goals and minimal achievements, 30 is fine. I even read about someone bragging on how she had a masters degree and was married with two kids at 30. The question no one asked her was 'what had she done with the masters degree and how her children were faring academically? ' It's not enough to get married and have kids before 30 or even finish a masters degree? Is she fulfilled as a person? Had she discovered purpose and was she on her way to fulfilling it? You see we all want to brag when it seems as if we better than the next person. Alas! Many of us are ignorant. Many Nigerian billionaires became billionaires only after 30, many ...
