It is said that our deepest emotional need is the need to feel loved. When we feel unloved we struggle just to survive. Love has power. It heals.

Quintessential of love's healing power is seen in Rob's story, who had a terrible accident that he wasn't sure he would be able to walk again. When asked what enabled him to come through that horrible experience, his answer was simple: “Love,” he said. “That’s the only way I could have made it".

You'll be inundated to know that we may inadvertently lessen the chance of survival of some Covid-19 patients (I pray not), not because of the virulent of the virus but just because of feeling unloved. I am aware that stigmatization, contempt, and ill-treatment have been raising their ugly heads, even by some health officials on the front line.

I've also read a plethora of malediction hurled at the country's arch-enemy politicians who tested positive for Covid-19. The truth is wishing them dead may not even bring about their death if it is not God's time. Thus, this is not the best way or time to settle scores. Or have you forgotten? ”Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”

Covid-19 is an enemy of mankind, not just some people. We must love to survive this together. We must rally round the victims during this trying times and show them, love. Love gives hope. And hope is as essential to our lives as air and water. They need hope to cope.

“Love one another and help others to rise to the higher levels, simply by pouring out love. Love is infectious and the greatest healing energy" Sai Baba

I served in Federal Polytechnic Ukana, a 5 minutes drive from Ikot Ekpene. I visited Ikot Ekepene Plaza regularly then to relish the convivial atmosphere of splendor. I love Akwa Ibom: its delicacy, people, dialect, and culture.

Their ladies are naturally beautiful

Education having the largest percentage is unprecedented and laudable. This should of course be evident in the quality of education students get

This is a colossal lost. Sweet Steve brought Orange FM to the limelight. Animated, jovial, cordial he was. I'm sad about this.

Somebody say "he_he"

I attended his crusade in Owo, Ondo State when I was still in primary school. We even had one of his cassettes where a dead pastor got resurrected after being brought to the crusade ground by his wife.

His crusade in Lagos still has the largest attendees ever in Nigeria.

It was a raw move of the mighty hands of Gods.

Rest in Peace, God's General Bonnke

Gloria Bamiloye is such a beauty. Such a wife I pray myself ooooo

I see you Tundemania

Report has it he debunked the incident in the first place. Why the U-turn? Appropriate punishment must he meted out on him. His crocodile tears will not suffice.

Nigeria vs Cameroon used to an epic showdown, but not anymore. Both countries now parade mediocre players who shouldn't have neared the pitch not to talk of playing ball.

Be it as it may, we go-shay watch the match only for the love of the game.

And those Agberos can curse........

Please ignore my grammatical errors.

I've a friend and he's very close to me. we know each other more than 10years and he has been the only friend close to me right now. I was living alone in a 3 bedroom flat and he always come to sleep at my place. I'm happy coz I won't be the only one sleeping in the house.

it started when he bring 1 of his girlfriends to my house, he uses on of the rooms and I didn't complain, but the issue is he kept bringing them in and I'm tired of it. the most annoying part is the way he's using the bed. stains or shit. it came to a time I've to wash the bed coz I'm tired of seeing stains on my bed, though I'm not really using the bed but it's still my property. I've been ill since December last year, I told him what I'm facing, and even lie to him to show how critical my illness is, but that doesn't stop him from bringing them in.

please can someone advise me on how to stop him totally. he found my place d best for him since he's still living with his parent.

I don't want to offend someone that's why I want the best way to table it to him.

right now he's with his gf at my place. this particular girl use to stay overnight.. same thing last week Wednesday. and he won't even tell me someone is coming. we went to bed together Around 10pm, and by the time I woke around 1 to pee, I found out he's not by my side again, I check around and went to the other room to found him and the girl.

I'm sick of this. please how can I stop him without malice.
thanks

The kind of friend that cannot tell each other the bitter truth, is that one friendship? You don't want to risk losing him, right? That's why you find it difficult to snide him. He is abusing the freedom you gave him, and if you don't nip this in the bud, it will compound beyond your control. He will still turn your house to a brothel. You cannot wish a difficult situation away, it takes proactive steps to address it. Tell him the truth, if he cannot stomach it, let him do whatever he likes.

deGea on his day remains unbeatable

It was really a Tottenham vs deGea showdown

Some words are better left unsaid @Buhuari. My PVC will do the talking
