The world power seat is dominated by the male folks with the singular ideological that it is a man’s world, however, women are better leaders as they have innate skills to handle humans better. Recall that all new humans are first entrusted into the care of a woman, this is because women are naturally born to nurture, grow and make nothing into something. Women are better in multi-tasking, executing ideas, and today, 46 percent of the privately held companies in the United States are now at least half-owned by women while more than 650 companies on the 2015 Inc. 5000 list are led by women. Women’s leadership skills are now being appreciated as the world embraces more women leaders. In politics, for instance, we have women leaders like Ellen Johnson Sirleaf [President of Liberia], Michelle Bachelet [President of Chile, South America], Dalia Itzik [Acting President of Israel], not forgetting Mehriban Aliyeva – the newly sworn-in Vice President of Azerbaijan, and more. In Nigeria, we have prominent women of power like Ngozi Okonji Iweala, Mrs Alakija, Aisha Buhari and more. Still wondering why women strive better as leaders? Here are a few reasons. 1. Women Are Better Listeners For any leader to be effective and take the interest of its subjects personal they have to be sensitive and listen to their subjects. Women listen as much as they talk, paying attention to details; the unsaid words and the motive behind every word and action. 2. Women Leaders Know How To Succeed Against All Odds. The world may see women as the weaker vessel, but that weakness is often channelled into extra work to achieve what a man would achieve without ease. This extra effort over time builds women for resilience and tenacious leadership and makes them achieve anything they set their mind to do. 3. Women Leaders Exude More Confidence From childhood, strong women have been taught to man up to every situation thus their confidence level as at adulthood surpasses that of their male peers. That is why a woman is seen to be more mature intellectually than a male of the same age. 4. Women Are Accessible Born as a natural mother, it is easier for women to welcome new ideas as she has an open mind and is readily available to attend to the needs of other people. This innate compassion means that women are more likely to be supportive of individuals at all levels of their organization, regardless of their rank or title. 5. Women Collaborate Better In as much as some women can be bitchy, women have a genuine passion for working with others. As long as everyone is ready to contribute their quota, women love to come together to help themselves and other people in need. 6. Women Are More Efficient When it comes to getting work done neatly, on time and as wanted, women are the best gender for such role. This known efficiency is why most companies hire women to fill in secretarial roles. Invariably, translating such managerial roles to leadership skills becomes easier as it is already in line with what she is wired for. 7. Women Focus On Personal Growth Women are readers and learners. They are very open and interested in finding ways to continuously improve their personal skills – the idea is to be very efficient so that the male folks do not talk down to them. This focus on development makes women more self-aware, which enables them to have very strong emotional intelligence, a key trait of successful leaders. 8. Women Attract Strong Peer Communities Being a female in business attracts a community of women who stick together and support one another. Successful women who are already up the ladder do not mind empowering other women. 9. Women Bring Emotional Literacy To The Table Women leaders are considerate and more humanely, however, they bring emotional intelligence into whatever decision they take. A women leader will think about the life of its subject first, before giving orders that may be originally seen as ideal in a security threatened scenario. 10. Women Motivate Women are natural cheerleaders that is why their presence and motivation during any game brings victory to the players. Women love to motivate people into action and are excited to hand out encouragements. A report says that people who work for women leaders are more engaged than those who work for men. So, What stops women from taking over the world? Article link: https://africanentertainment.info/articles/10-solid-proofs-that-women-are-better-leaders/ |
Nigeria has never been in short supply of talented beauty queens. We have had series of beautiful ladies who have represented the country in different categories. But the emergence of Agbani Darego as the winner of Miss World in 2001 marked a new dawn for Nigeria. The beautiful model, beauty queen and brand ambassador, is one of Africa’s most influential women of all time. At the age of 18, she made the continent proud by putting her name on the sands of time as the first black woman to win the famous “Miss World 2001”. More than a decade after her big win, Agbani has continued to stay relevant in the modelling, fashion and entertainment world. She is a great icon and an inspiration to most upcoming and established models in and out of the continent. Below is everything you need to learn about this beautiful model. Agbani Darego Married, Husband, Children Earlier, Agabani was rumoured to be dating politician and businessman, Timi Alaibe. Timi who hails from Bayelsa state made it publicly clear that he had no plans of marrying the beauty queen. The politician whose wife died and left him with two children also stated firmly that he had nothing other than family closeness with Agbani Darego. The rumour died off quickly after he made that statement. As time passed, the well-known rapper, Jude Abaga who goes by the stage name MI wrote a public letter to Darego stating his desire to marry her if she permits. Anyway, the beauty queen joined the marital journey on April 8, 2017, when she married her longtime sweetheart, Ishaya Danjuma, son of Nigeria’s former defence minister and famous business magnate Theophilus Danjuma. The wedding took place in Marrakesh Morocco and she shared some pictures of their honeymoon on Instagram. As newly married, the two are yet to have children and we believe they will certainly come in a matter of time.

It may sound incredulous to say that a female celebrity in Nigeria is still retaining her virginity, considering the level of promiscuity that is usually associated with their lifestyle. Although some other parts of the world may not attach much value to virginity or hold women who are virgins in high esteem, most African cultures and tradition still place much value on chastity, purity, and virginity among other things. By this, we mean the state of not being engaged in any sexual intercourse. However, it is quite difficult nowadays to define who a virgin is in the real meaning of the word. The general meaning of the word “virgin” refers to a girl who keeps her chastity. Such a girl can be said not to have slept with the opposite sex at the time of being called a virgin. Back then, should a young lady be found guilty of losing her virginity and purity before marriage the shame was borne not just by the lady, but by her parents as well. Much emphasis is not placed on male virginity probably because the males do not have a hymen. It may not have crossed your wildest imaginations that we still have a hand full of them who have decided to remain holy and loyal to their future husbands. Meet these daring ladies who value their pride and would not let it go for a million dollars!

Editor's note: The author Sonala Olumhense in this piece talks about the declarations made by different officials in authority that the Islamist terrorist group, Boko Haram has finally been defeated. Last Monday, Nigeria’s highest authorities declared Boko Haram, the militant group which has caused tremendous violence and agony for nearly 10 years, finally contained. Speaking during a Town Hall gathering in Maiduguri, the ground zero of the menace, Abdulrahman Dambazzau, the Minister of the Interior, described the group as “completely decimated.” He added that the group’s structure was degraded and its leadership, dismantled. Minister of Information Lai Mohammed cited the “resumption of flights, bubbling nightlife, and football matches in Maiduguri” as signs normalcy has returned to the Borno State capital. It is interesting to note that the report of the event was filed by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), and nobody explained why the national and international media in the area appeared unable to find the venue. As part of the back-slapping, Defence Minister Mansur Dan Ali announced that at least 30,000 hostages kidnapped by the insurgents were freed by the troops. Two days earlier, also in Maiduguri, Rogers Ibe Nicholas, the Theatre Commander of Operation Lafiya Dole, also declared Boko Haram “completely defeated.” Speaking at the inauguration of the Nigeria-Cameroun Military Joint Mission, he explained that only the previous day, his troops had overrun Boko Haram’s “Camp Zero,” dislodging the militants and occupying the area. “We have broken the heart and soul of Shekau’s group, taking over the camp and its environs,” Nicholas said. “They are on the run and we are pursuing them to wherever they go. This time around there is no place for escape anywhere.” The news comes some six weeks after President Muhammadu Buhari first made the announcement of the militants’ fate. In a statement on the eve of Christmas 2017, he declared “the long-awaited and most gratifying news of the final crushing of Boko Haram terrorists in their last enclave in Sambisa Forest.” That was followed on January 7 by another affirmation by the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Yusuf Buratai, that his troops have won the war against Boko Haram. The declarations come exactly three years after President Buhari said Nigeria had “technically” won the war. But the militants had then mounted more attacks against troops and populations. All of this comes six months after Mr. Buratai gave the soldiers 40 days to capture Abubakar Shekau, the leader of the terrorist group, “dead or alive.” He ordered the then Operation Lafiya Dole chief, Ibrahim Attahiru, to spare no trick in his wine-skin bag “to smoke out Shekau wherever he is hiding in Nigeria.” Given Shekau’s habit of re-appearing each time the army claims he has been killed or wounded, there was little surprise that after 40 days, the army could present to Buratai neither the militant nor his head. On the contrary, there followed a new wave of Boko Haram attacks upon Nigerians, and an embarrassed military early in December went on a face-saving mission. Major General Attahiru was summarily removed and shoved to a desk assignment described as “policy and planning.” While it would be incorrect to attribute the latest developments to the military wizardry of Nicholas, what he has achieved in such a short time is highly impressive. Despite that, using such language as “totally defeated,” or “crushed,” or “completely decimated” seems overblown, particularly with Shekau still in play. And he didn’t take too long last week to announce himself. On Wednesday, he published a new video in which he declared Nigeria’s version of recent events to be false, affirming that he is in, and still controls Sambisa forest. Obviously, until the challenge of finding Shekau is answered and his means and methods decapitated, the claim the insurgency has been defeated will continue to sound hollow. Among other questions is: where are the remaining Chibok High School girls? Where are the members of an oil exploration team the militants snatched in July last year which included policemen, NNPC researchers and University of Maiduguri professors? It is notable that Shekau brags about this point in his latest video, which he autographs as “the one that is an invincible enemy that you are fighting.” These evident elements of doubt may explain why only NAN directly reported the government’s landmark celebrations last week. But the declarations of victory raise a key question about the $1bn the government announced in December it wanted to take from the Excess Crude Account allegedly to fight the insurgents. Where do we go next? Despite the giant strides the Nigerian military has made in the combating Boko Haram, Buhari lack of both vision and patriotic ambition as a leader have become apparent in the past three years, and one of those areas is in sadly mistaking propaganda for action. To that end, how does the government intend to handle the huge rebuilding and restoring challenge in the northeast, given how much officials such as the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation Babachir Lawal have taken advantage of Buhari’s weaknesses to exploit the poor and dispossessed. In November 2016, the United Nations said in Abuja that Nigeria faced a massive humanitarian crisis arising from the insurgency, and that 26 million people would be affected by the crisis into 2017. At the time, it also warned that about 75,000 children could die from hunger within just two months. On March 30, 2017, the New York Times reported that over 130,000 people fleeing Boko Haram had amassed in Niger’s Diffa region, along National Route 1 in the southeast of the country, with nowhere to go. In May, Medicins San Frontieres, quoting the authorities, said that number had almost doubled, to 240,000. Nigeria has never responded to their presence. Only last week, UN-OCHA announced that over 8.5 million persons need life-saving support due to the humanitarian crisis arising from the insurgency; in 2017, it had targeted 6.9 million displaced persons. This is a good time for the government to come up with a massive plan not only to help victims of the insurgency, including those outside our borders, but to address the national problems that facilitated the rise of Boko Haram in the first place. Sadly, those problems exist all over the country, and we have seen how they drive Nigerians into desperation, and sometimes out of the country into slavery and death. The question is whether Buhari, given his alarming and disappointing record in the past three years, and confronted over the next with trying to remain in power in 2019, can summon the inspiration and strength he has lacked in three years, to tackle these problems. The truth is that in view of Nigeria’s burgeoning population, business as usual is no longer an option. The tens of millions who have barely survived Boko Haram, in addition to the tens of millions all over the country who continue to be neglected while officials connive and help themselves to a lifestyle of opulence and privilege in the face of a weak anti-corruption preachment, is a tinderbox waiting to consume the unwary. The poverty of purposefulness in high places must end now. Hopefully, it is clear to all that the days of hoodwinking the populace—like the days of coup-plotting and election-rigging—are over. Boko Haram is not defeated until Nigeria is not just a political playpen.

Who is the CEO? Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is the senior manager in the company whose main responsibilities include the development and implementation of high-level strategies, the making of major corporate decisions, the management of all operating activities and company resources. He/she acts as a link between the board of directors and corporate management. The Chief Executive Officer is often a member of the board of directors and in some cases even its Chairman. There are also other names of the CEO post, for example, the President or the Managing Director. The role of the CEO may differ significantly from company to company, depending on size and organizational structure of an enterprise. In small organizations, the CEO often plays a leading role in the company's activities making many business decisions, even lower-level ones such as hiring full-time employees. However, in larger enterprises, the CEO deals only with the high-level strategy and the direction of overall company’s development. Most other tasks are delegated to managers and departments. Top 10 highest paid CEO in Nigeria High wages are a good reason for pride. However, not every CEO wants to publish such data. Therefore, it is not easy to find fresh information in media. The last rating of such was drawn up in 2016. Since then, the situation may have changed, but the list below still gives an approximate idea of how wealthy these top CEO's are. highest paid CEO in Nigeria These prominent persons certainly deserve your attention: Segun Agbaje is GTBank CEO whose salary reaches N204.2 million annually. Emeka Emuwa of Union Bank earns N166 million. Kennedy Uzoka of Uba Bank - N119 million. Sola David-Borha, Stanbic IBTC earns N117 million. Nnamdi Okonkwo, Fidelity Bank has the N102 million income. Peter Amangbo, Zenith Bank has salary N88 million. Herbert Wigwe Access, Bank - N85.2 million. Tunji Oyebanji of Mobil Oil Nigeria Limited earns N85 million. Ladi Balogun of FCMB – N81 million. Uzoma Edozie of Diamond Bank has salary N25.2 million. CEO Segun Agbaje Segun Agbaje Emeka Emuwa gained a lot of experience during his 25 years with Citibank. Of course, Union Bank had to offer a truly tempting labor environment to make Emuwa move into their organization and transform it into something new and better. The company almost collapsed in 2009 and was rebuilt in many aspects thanks to Emuwa’s efforts. CEO Emeka Emuwa Emeka Emuwa Looking at the end of the rating, you will see that the salary of CEO in different banks can differ really greatly. Compare income of Uzoma Edozie and Segun Agbaje. Edozie gets as much as a deputy general manager in many other commercial structures. CEO Uzoma Edozie Perhaps you have noticed that the First Bank wasn't mentioned in this list. This is due to the fact that at the time of the rating compiling there was no available information about the wages of its CEO Adesola Kazeem Adeduntan. Relying on the known data, one can conjecture that he receives about the same sum as the Union Bank CEO. CEO Adesola Kazeem Adeduntan Adesola Kazeem Adeduntan As you can see hard work and persistence lead to wealth and success. Strive for your goal and someday your name will appear in one of such ratings. See their pictures via the Gist link https://africanentertainment.info/top-10-highest-paid-ceo-in-nigeria/ |
He said has no plan to colonise any part of Nigeria with proposed cattle colony Buhari lamented that the government's intention to create grazing locations for cattle rearers, misconstrued as another form of colonisation President Muhammadu Buhari has said the policy proposed by federal government in response to the frequent clashes between herdsmen and farmers in the country is not meant to colonise any part of the country. Premium Times reports that while receiving Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) led by Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama, on Thursday, February 8, in Abuja, President Buhari said the intention of government is to create grazing locations for cattle rearers, which has now been misconstrued as another form of colonisation. African Entertainment gathered that President Buhari said he regretted that the “well-thought out policy of the federal government, which was conceived after wide consultations with stakeholders”, had been largely misunderstood by a section of the public. He, however, assured the Catholic Bishops that the federal government will continue to explore all opportunities and support initiatives to ensure peace and stability in restive areas. Condemning recent spate of killings in Benue, Adamawa, Taraba, and Zamfara states, the president said security operatives would ensure prosecution of perpetrators and all those found with illegal arms in the affected areas. ‘‘The impression created that I was sitting in an air-conditioned office and home, enjoying myself while these things happened, is dishonest. ‘‘At every step, I have tried to foresee these problems because I have the experience as a former military officer who commanded three out of the four divisions of the Nigerian army, in Lagos, Ibadan and Jos. ‘‘I am quite aware of the problems we have and I am doing my best to get law enforcement agencies to be on alert,’’ he said. Buhari told the Catholic Bishops that he would not be tired of recounting remarkable progress recorded in the areas of security, economy and the fight against corruption. ‘‘We have done very well on security in the northeast, when you compare what the condition was before we came in and what it is now. ‘‘On the economy, particularly agriculture, I am very pleased that God answered the prayers of Nigerians who prayed for bountiful harvest. ‘‘People have taken advantage of federal government policies and programmes to return to the farm and they have not regretted,’’ he said. On the fight against corruption, the president said the government would be guided by the law in the investigation and prosecution of all graft-related cases. ‘‘People are being prosecuted systematically with evidence. ‘‘If a permanent secretary has five houses in Abuja, two in Kaduna and one in Borno and Sokoto and he can’t account for the properties and there are bank transactions linking him to the properties, the prosecuting agencies will not have difficulties to make progress on the case,” he said. In his remarks, Kaigama pledged that the Catholic Church in Nigeria would continue to support the Buhari administration and make its contribution to nation-building through prayers, admonitions and assistance to needy Nigerians. ‘‘As the voice of the people, we shall continue to highlight the plight of our people and play our prophetic role of sensitising the government, thus promoting good governance, national unity and cohesion,’’Kaigama said. Meanwhile, African Entertainment had previously reported that President Muhammadu Buhari was chided by a former governor of Benue state, Dr Gabriel Suswam, for not paying a visit to the state since the invasion by herdsmen which led to the murder of 73 people.

Article link: https://africanentertainment.info/sugabelly-story-top-5-lessons-we-should-learnmust-read/ Sugabelly’s story of Rape. Everyone in Nigeria, especially those people, who love Twitter, are aware of an unpleasant episode in the life of Mustapha Audu, son of former governor of Kogi State. This story was first revealed in 2015, and still, none of us can’t tell how exactly things went wrong for 17-years old alleged victim. In 2015, a popular Nigerian blogger, Sugabelly revealed in the article named “Surviving Mustapha Audu, and his Rape Brigade”. She described a poor Nigerian girl (her name wasn’t revealed at first) survived multiple rape from Mustapha Audu and his closest friends. In the Sugabelly story, lots of dirty stuff happened, including Mustapha gifting his girl as a birthday present, group rape acts etc. Mustapha himself thinks, that every point in this story is a fake, and in whole, it is just a bad attempt to make easy money. So where is the truth? Mustapha Audu and his friend Mustapha Audu with his friend The main clue, which is used for the verse of governor’s son is the fact, that this story wasn’t unveiled since 2006 when Lotanna (real name of the victim) started dating him. The girl said, that she was afraid of the consequences, but Mustapha thinks, that this whole story is charged only because he didn’t married Lotanna. Young Lotanna And still, we can’t say exactly what really has happened between these persons. Maybe, the truth lies somewhere on the half, or, maybe, one of them is a clear criminal. Because false accusation is a crime also. But, we can try to carry some useful lessons from this story, so such a story will most likely not repeat itself among younger generation. 5 lessons we should learn from Sugabelly’s story [b]Lesson #1: [/b]Bad boys style is not a good tendency. Look, in Nigeria, women always have to be good mothers, faithful wives, and tireless domestic servants. How do we see men in Nigeria? They are drinking, showing their bad behavior in public, and the only reaction for such things would be “Ah, they are boys, so what can we do with it?”. The only case, where it could work, if we would try to raise tons of future pirates, goons, and other criminals. To be a man doesn’t mean to be a pig. It’s all about responsibility, proper attitude to the parents, and to your mother in the first place. Men are stronger and have more will, so why do we have to spend all these priorities for abusing someone, who is weaker? And everything begins in early ages for males. You would never rape someone if you have a kind and respectful relations with your mother. Actually, both parents should teach their sons respectful and protective attitude to those who are weaker. [b]Lesson #2: Remember: [/b]a woman is the guardian of life. Therefore, it is necessary to instill in your daughter basic safety rules. The girl should be sensible. Teach your daughter to understand people and situations right. You should not intimidate her, only warn against excessive credulity. Bring her the thought that wise people learn not on their own, but on other people's mistakes. Talk with your daughter, tell her about dangerous life events of your friends, discuss what was written in the press or known from television. The education of a girl must teach her to avoid what might threaten life, reputation, and health. A girl from an early age should learn to understand who she is dealing with, what to expect from this person, whether it is possible to trust him, whether he is good or bad. It is important that she can assess the emerging situation, and draw the right conclusions. This is especially useful to her when you are not around, and the girl will be able to decide for herself how to act. Lesson #3: Police in Nigeria doesn’t know how to prevent and investigate rape acts. There is no real procedure to identify and preventing cases of rape acts. Again, don’t get us wrong, this is not about the police being unprofessional. It is about lack of legal materials and mechanisms, that should be provided by the government. Lesson #4: Parent lesson. Every reader can understand what is going to say further, proceeding from the name of this lesson. Parents, if you wouldn’t educate your little princesses, if you wouldn’t love them, take care of them, then (at least) you will grow another unhappy and cruel woman. Now, fathers, the main thing, that you have to do for your daughter through her childhood is to give her the feeling of safety. You have to be the guarantor of safety, in fact. Of course, this is not the only thing, but maybe the main, that you could do for your little girl. Because in another way, she could try to find this feeling in the arms of someone who can draw her down into something even worse, than Sugabelly’s story. Lesson #5: Nigerian society has to stop pursuing rape victims. We mentioned earlier, how its difficult to say to someone, that you were raped. Even, if you want to say something like that to your parents or other people you love, it would be difficult too. Because our society prefers to laugh at such people, ignore them, treat them like a dirt. Let’s not wait for someone implementing right procedures to catch the rapist. Instead of these, let’s try not to make fun of rape survivors, but figure out how to help them. Let’s be the ones, who you can come to and ask for support. Because it is not so hard, to sympathize with people. Sugabelly’s story could be fake or real. In any case, we should think about, how to build up the society, in which such story would be just an unpleasant myth or a relic of the past. Visit the article for more interesting updates... |

There is an Arab proverb that says, “the beginning of anger is madness and its end is regret”. And I have seen and heard of people become downright mad and reduce themselves to beasts when they become angry. And like beasts, they savagely devour any and everything they are in contention with, only to realise later that what they destroyed in that moment of uncontrolled behaviour is marred forever. And that is probably the saddest result of anger; when you are unable to fix that which you destroyed during that fit because they are irreparably damaged. Anger, left uncontrolled can be very damaging. Many have lost innumerable blessings because of anger; from losing out on multimillion business deals to losing vital social relationships. Uncontrolled anger can be very damaging. The Beginning Of Anger Is Madness. Its End Is RegretAnger However, anger is not all bad. In as much as it is destructive, it can also be a fixer. Psychologists tell us it is very okay to get angry. What is not okay is allowing it to transcend your thinking and taking control of every part of your being. So yes, getting angry is a normal human reaction. Human Emotions can be a very delicate thing to handle sometimes. Even the sweetest of all (love) can be equally complex. That is why dealing with them require a lot of tact and mind work. Here are some tips I sampled from the internet to help you deal with anger. I hope you find them helpful. Think before you speak. In the heat of the moment, you might say something you will regret later. And sometimes, when we are angry, words fail us. We can hardly find the right thing to say. So, we end up saying all the wrong things that either exacerbate the problem or leave us more bruised than we were. Once you are calm, express your anger. It is good to vent your anger but venting it the wrong way might lead to another cause for anger. This is not to suggest in any way that you pent up your anger. Bottling it may result in a dangerous explosion someday. Knowing the terror such explosions can cause, it is best to express your frustration in an assertive and non-confrontational way when you start thinking clearly. State your concerns and needs directly, without hurting others or trying to control them. Winding or dilly-dallying around the issue may leave it unresolved, thereby leaving a higher probability for it recurrence. Get some exercise. Exercise prevents and cures a lot of mishaps. It is an elixir for many for many destructive ailments. Exercise reduces stress that can cause you to become angry. If you feel your anger escalating, go for a brisk walk, run or spend some time doing other enjoyable physical activities. You can even decide to count from 1 to infinity- sounds a bit puerile but it works. Try taking some timeout; it is extremely helpful. Timeouts provides a change of environment and fills your mind with new thoughts. Moving away from the scene that caused you to become angry is a step towards healing. A sight of new things calms you and helps you to collect thoughts on a better way of dealing with the cause or agent of your anger. Instead of focusing on what made you mad, identify possible solutions to resolve the problem. There are so many ways of solving a problem. Many of the problems we leave unresolved have solutions. However, when you are angry, every problem looks like it has no solution. That is why you would want to raze your house down, kick, slap or even beat the agent of anger. Anger blinds you to possible solutions, it muddies your thoughts. Which is why you must calm down first as stated earlier and then you can think about possible solutions to solve the problem. Do not hold a grudge. Forgiveness has always been the best option. Learn to forgive people for their wrong. Holding a grudge makes you bitter. It feels you with so much hate for the offender and the only thing you want to do in such moments is to react squarely to what the person has done. Forgiveness on the hand gives you a better feel. When you sincerely forgive, all the heavy emotions within assumes a lighter weight and gets you being your happy self again. Use humour to release tension. Lighten up your mood with humour. Find yourself activities you find very cheerful. You can watch funny movies or read funny stories to feel better. Practice relaxation skills. We all have a peculiar relaxation skill that works magic for us in times like this. Discover which suits you best and apply it in such times. It could be watching a movie, reading a book, listening to music, playing video games or even a good sleep. Know yourself and find out what relaxes you best and reach for it during these times.

In dreams of family happiness, we sometimes imagine how we will dress up our beautiful daughter and help our son to become a real man. But let’s not forget, that this dreams also have the other side. You definitely heard the statement in debates: “A male child is more beneficial than a female child”. Is it true? How to compare male and female children? Of course, the above-mentioned question is rather complicated, because it is simply impossible to express a generalized opinion. Maybe you see yourself growing a son, your inheritor, and successor. Also, you can be more excited about a fact of having daughter, less problematic child and your little princess. Eventually, you can be far from the process of raising children, which is quite normal, considering the high pace of modern life. However, it is obvious that gender affects the characteristics of upbringing in the areas of character development, healthcare, material support, etc. Let’s not forget about other feature of society in Nigeria. Religion could also affect your wishes about the future gender of the child. In the Muslim world, there are a lot of benefits for men in general, if you compare their position against women. Christians are more likely to be happy about both of the options, so in such cases, only the attitudes of parents matters. Nature and character of boys and girls It's no secret that boys are more active, restless, and sometimes even aggressive. They actively seek to establish their position in society even at an early age. The consequences of all this can be very different: from a broken window to a fight or something even more serious. Such things often require a strong will on the part of the parents. Usually, these qualities are inherent in a man, so a woman has to be tough when raising a boy. Even little boys are used to showing their discontent with physical methods, they fight, kick their feet etc. The reactions of girls are much more different. By nature, the girls are calmer and more benevolent, it's easier to agree with them.But at the same time, girls are more likely to express their emotions with words and behavior, rather than physically, as boys do. For dads, this is almost incomprehensible, because female psychology is a mystery to them, so mothers have to deal with all this. other thing, that can surely make dads feel a huge stress, is their little girls growing. The older she becomes, the more frightening it appears to let her go somewhere. In adolescence, a girl will begin to feel unfree, so there may be conflicts with her parents. Boy's and girl’s health Scientists say that at an early age, boys are more prone to infectious diseases. Cuts, bruises, and such stuff happen in the life of boys as often as breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For girls, the most terrible times begin at puberty, then the risk of infectious diseases and allergies increases. Reorganization of the hormonal system leads to skin diseases, to changes in weight, which are much harder borne by girls. And then the rest of their life the hormonal system will be strange and present surprises. Also, you all know very well, the risk of early pregnancy in girls. Expenses for boys and girls Toys are different for each gender, so it makes no sense to compare to whom they are more expensive. But a boy at an early age always needs more clothes, because it tears and gets dirty. Shoes get worn out faster also. In general, boys are less careful with things, so clothes and toys often have to be repaired or replaced. In the future, when a boy grows up, his toys, of course, become more expensive. The girl needs all this less often. Boys tend to change their hobbies more likely, they get bored in one place. Therefore, the purchased uniforms can gather dust in the pantry, while the child learns swimming, tennis or football. Girls neatly treat things, and, in principle, a daughter can pass long enough in a single dress. Independent life of boys and girls A boy by nature is more independent. Therefore, as it was easier to let the son out late, now it is easier to see how he gets on his feet and boldly goes into real life as a man. For a boy, at this age, it is important to have all the attributes of a man — a place where you can live or meet a girl, for example. All this is very difficult for a boy at the start. Realizing this, parents are trying to take decisions on all these issues to themselves. And this is not easy. Nigerian teenagers A girl is harder to let go. Drawing conclusions, we see that raising a boy for a father can be easier. But all these talks are very conditional since the upbringing of children is a more complicated process. It is influenced by many other factors, for example, the relations between parents or their maturity. And, of course, love.

Some opposition political parties in Lagos have begun mobilizing for full representation in governance, ahead of 2019 - The parties include the National Conscience Party, African Democratic Congress, Peoples Party of Nigeria and Action Alliance - They plan to work together and support each other by supporting the most popular among themselves in a particular locality instead contesting against each other Ahead of the 2019 general elections, some opposition political parties in Lagos state say they are mobilising and restructuring to win and be fully represented in governance. Leaders of the parties told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday, January 16, that voters were eager to have a true change in government. African Entertainment gathers that the Lagos state chairman of National Conscience Party (NCP), Mr Fatai Ibuowo, said the party was restructuring to ensure it had full representation in the state. “We are doing our best to make sure we occupy Lagos politics; Lagos NCP is restructuring its bases in order to make its dream a reality. “We are also working tirelessly to ensure we create an alternative for the people of Lagos state,’’ Ibuowo said. The Lagos state chairman of African Democratic Congress, Mr Nkem Lemchi, also said the party was mobilising and strategising for the elections. “However, our not winning seats in Lagos is not as a result of lack of plans but the peculiar style of electoral fraud that prevails. “There is no way to win election than to continue mobilising and strategising,’’Lemchi said. The Lagos state chairman of Peoples Party of Nigeria, Chief Gboyega Adeniji, said that the party would present credible candidates for the polls. We were in Ogun state House of Assembly between 2011 and 2015 and we are winning more in Lagos state this time around. “The voters are already dissatisfied with performance of the ruling party, so our plan is to present credible community-based tested and trusted candidates for the elections,’’Adeniji said. The Lagos state chairman of Action Alliance (AA), Mr Shola Omolola, said that the party was planning to work with other smaller parties ahead of the elections. “We are trying to see if we, the smaller parties, can work together and support each other by supporting the most popular among us in a particular locality instead of all of us contesting against ourselves. “We will keep giving the people an alternative candidate to vote for during the elections while also intensifying our work this year and building on it toward the 2019 elections,’’ Omolola said. He said the party believed so much in the grassroots where it had a stronghold through its interface with the people. The AA chairman said that the party had commenced training the people on the importance of coming out to vote in the elections and ensuring their votes counted. Omolola said: “In one of our trainings, we told the people that they should not believe that who shares the highest money will be the winner of the contest; rather, they should believe in INEC to be an unbiased umpire.’’ The first-class traditional ruler, therefore, urged Nigerians to continue to work towards its success as he stated that the ruling party could not be eased out so soon.

Donald Duke, the former governor of Cross River state says that he will contest for presidency in 2019 The former governor notes that he will start the process at the right time - Duke attributes the failure of governance on the lack of consequences for erring leaders Former Cross River state governor, Donald Duke, on Sunday night, January 14 in Abuja has said that he will contest to become Nigeria next president in the 2019 general elections, Vanguard reports. African Entertainment gathered that Duke, who declared his interest at the 3rd Mike Omotosho Annual Lecture titled, “Mellinials as Protagonists in Nation Building,” promised to kick-start the process at the right circumstances. He said: “I am entitled to run for the presidency of this country. I am entitled to it. Only on right circumstances I will aspire for it. I don’t shy away from responsibility, only the right circumstance, I will aspire for presidency of this country. I have what it takes to be president of this country." However the former governor, challenged the youths to fully participate in the electoral process by getting their Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) and sensitising others ahead of 2019 general election. Duke said, “I hear young people say to me that why would there spend hours queuing and casting their votes when at the end their votes won’t count. And I tell that if their parents conceived them they never gave up on them considering the high mortality rate so why would there not take a chance in building this nation? “We had young leadership at one stage or the other. Even in our first republic, besides the likes of Awolowo, Tafawa Balewa, M. T. Mbu was in his twenties when he became a minister. “Gowon was 30 when he became the head of state. It comes back to the disaster therein because most of them didn’t have experience in governance, which led us into war. We need the combination of both. “What I think we should be doing is to a government that is youth friendly to provide opportunities because we need to groom the next set of leadership.” The former governor, while rating the activities of the present administration, said, there was disconnection between President Muhammadu Buhari and his cabinet members, adding that: “The challenge we have today is the disconnect. That is the challenge of the governance today. Because if you speak with the folks in government, and I am been candid here. I think we should stop to deceive ourselves here and stop all these political correctness. There is disconnecting between the president and even the ministers.” He attributed the failure of governance on the lack of consequences for erring leaders which has given room for incompetence. African Entertainment previously reported that Former Cross River state governor, Donald Duke, on Thursday, November 2, 2017, criticised President Muhammadu Buhari-led government for rejoicing over Nigeria’s ‘exit’ from recession. This Day reports that Duke, who said he was broke, also advised the administration to work harder, stating that the masses were yet to feel the development. Duke sounded a bleak warning that all is not well in Nigeria, despite the September news that the country was out of recession. https://africanentertainment.info/donald-duke-indicates-interest-to-run-for-president-in-2019/
