8. Fear Of Terrorists

[img]http://1.bp..com/-N2QoxSH7shY/V3c9TfiA2HI/AAAAAAAACz0/AZOrgRUShZ8MN3rZ3fgNBD5iScfocgYGACLcB/s400/boko_haram_shekau_chukonetng.jpg[/img]

There is no latin name for this phobia probably because it is a new phenomenon. You can suggest a name for it. But if you permit me to give it a name, I will call it bokophobia ha ha ha.

Acts of terrorism cause death, maiming and destruction. They trigger deep fears which is the main aim of the terrorists. The thought that terrorists can strike at anytime and media coverage of terrorist acts leaves people feeling insecure and frightened. This phobia can manifest itself in different ways causing difficulties in daily life. Those in the northern part of Nigeria can relate to this. Boko Haram has wrecked havoc in borno, Adamawa, Kano, Jos, Abuja and some neighbouring towns killing over 21,000 and rendering millions of people homeless.

Crowded public transport, being in a tall building, large public events, or seeing a bag left on its own make some of us scared for life. Some sufferers report panic attack symptoms such as headaches, lightheadedness, heart palpitations and so on when faced with triggers.

The steps the government is taking to protect us from future acts of terrorism may soothe our anxieties. Be courageous and stay away from unsecured places or danger zones.

7. Daemonophobia

[img]http://3.bp..com/-Kq_fBAc1qnE/V3x8GS91DKI/AAAAAAAAC1k/Nl5R8OyhLHE9ibjRW_BXU4u8cPX7mt-TACLcB/s400/igbo%2Bmasqurade.jpg[/img]

This is the fear of demons. Often, people who have this problem feel frightened by portrayals of demons in horror films, religious texts etc. They become unduly anxious when discussing demons, when venturing alone into woods or a dark house, or when watching films about demonic possession and exorcism. Witchcraft, black magic and demonology may also be triggers for daemonophobia. People who feel prone to magical thinking will be very impressionable, and they will be prime candidates for the phobia when stories of spells, black candles, Satanism, and pentacles are told.

Often, religious beliefs play a major role in phobias like this. The idea of hellfire, with its devil and resident demons, can be a potent trigger. Nigeria is a very religious country where almost every problem is believed to be caused by one demon or the other. In many churches around the country, deliverance from demonic possessions or exorcism is a common thing.

Our nollywood industry is also not helping matters as they are always busy bombarding the market with their scary movies. Phobias can surface in response to images in mass media, books, and films. I could remember the movie titled "End of the Wicked". This movie scared the hell out of me those days. What about "Akuma the Angel of Death", "Trip to Hell", "The Yoke", "Black Mass", "Occultic Destroyer", "Apostles of Lucifer", "Haunted Souls" etc. These Nigerian movies gave some of us daemonophobia.

Panic treatment, psychotherapy, and education are the best weapons against "demons" and the fears they cause. Physical symptoms like dizziness or headaches, may be eased by treatment that gets at the root of fears and provides a catharsis. Often, talking about fears centered around these mystical creatures can create a sense of release in an afflicted person. Prayer, use of sacramentals (holy water, crucifix, anointing oil etc.) or materials believed to scare away evil spirits can also help to calm the fear.

Moreover, letting go of religious beliefs may be one way of coping with the problem for those who trace their phobia to religion. Atheism or even agnosticism can be a way out of fears about paranormal creatures such as demons and devils. For those who trace their phobia to horror movies, it is good to avoid watching scary films and care should be taken to protect children from images they are not mature enough to process. Daemonophobia can trigger convulsions in children.

6. Virginitiphobia

[img]http://4.bp..com/-PlLC9ARu2Ng/V3xdoeF9PCI/AAAAAAAAC1E/J5Nm_a9Ax2Ai0TKgey-Gt59hqBle-5LHQCLcB/s400/Virginitiphobia.jpg[/img]

This is fear of being raped. The rate of sexual harassment and rape are on the increase in our society today. I can tell the reason for the increase in robbery - economic hardship but I can't tell the reason behind the increase in rape cases. But if there was efficient implementation of Nigerian laws, the situation wouldn't have been this worse. Randy men are on the loose. We have randy teachers who rape students in their offices, armed robbers who rape their victims, fulani herdsmen who terrorise villagers and rape their women, uncles who rape little girls, and even pastors who rape their members in the name of deliverance.

Rape is the nightmare of many Naija girls. They are even more scared of rape than physical assault or robbery. This fear usually develops at young age. This fear is especially intensified when one is walking along a dark street alone, or when one is home alone. For those with extreme phobia, they normally avoid having male friends for fear that interacting with men can get them raped. There can also be physical manifestations like palpitations, trembling, shortness of breath and other symptoms of anxiety.

If you are afraid of rape, avoid wearing revealing clothes, mini skirts, skimpy wears and other types of cloths that can be easily removed or sexuallly provocatingg. Also, bear in mind that not all men are rapists. Rapists are fewer. Make friends with responsible men. Avoid going out alone in the night. Learn some martial arts for self defense. You may need to have some little weapons in your bag like dry pepper, pen knife or juju ( just kidding).

5. Ergophobia

[img]http://3.bp..com/-GMDbTNhkN2o/V3xxuyNboCI/AAAAAAAAC1U/njf3FuliN_AGRcgpJdSyqjbItXWUVsEpgCLcB/s400/Ergophobia.jpg[/img]

This is job related phobia. Those with ergophobia may fear losing a job, not being able to perform certain aspects of their job(example is meeting deadlines or giving presentations) or experience extreme anxiety with any basic task. These can manifest into actual physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, rapid breathing, excessive sweating, dry mouth and panic attacks. The current economic hardship, unfavourable work conditions and rate at which workers are being sacked in this country are enough to make one get ergophobia.

Always keep your CV updated. Don't stop searching for a better job until you have found your dream job. No matter where you are working now or how small your pay is, remember that it is the job that puts money in your pocket and you should therefore put in your best in the job. Learn and develop new skills that can help you do your job well. Don't forget to save. No job is secured in Nigeria, not even federal government jobs. Also, running part time businesses as backups can save lives.

4. Glossophobia

[img]http://1.bp..com/-IX31dQ0r1tg/V3w_F-wnDnI/AAAAAAAAC00/ZcVNHIaakRwCJE17uWCKaUYwjOE-_3sPgCLcB/s400/PPN%2Bvice%2Bpresidential%2Bcandidate%2Bon%2BNEDG%2Bdebate.jpg[/img]

Every 3 out of 4 people have glossophobia which is the fear of public speaking. Symptoms include intense anxiety prior to or at thought of having to verbally communicate with any group, avoidance of events which focus the group's attention on individuals in attendance and physical distress like blushing, nausea, sweating, trembling, palpitations, stammering and rapid speech.

Kicking this phobia out of your life would be a great achievement for you because public speaking can be business. You need to overcome glossophobia before you can excel as a stand up comedian, politician, MC, preacher, lecturer and so on. You may be funnier than Alibaba but glossophobia has denied you the status of being a millionaire comedian and celebrity.

This is how to overcome it. Don't use alcohol, marijuana or any other drugs to boost your moral because they may make you speak off point or worst still lead you to drug addiction. Instead, practice your talk by speaking out loud. Get used to hearing your own voice. You can record your talk on tape recorder and listen for mistakes, the "em em em and ah ah ah" you use to fill in the blanks. Listen to them over and over to fine-tune the spots that needed work. Practice and rehearse well before going for public speaking. Consider joining a speaking group to help you polish your public speaking skills.

3. Testophobia

[img]http://3.bp..com/-g4FzpgJVG0Y/V3w0Ho0HG5I/AAAAAAAAC0k/4VQ8d3iogiQpKvBr_rXtOj6KrF56jQqMQCLcB/s400/futo%2Bexam%2Bhall.jpg[/img]

This is the latin name for fear of tests or exam. Many of us suffered this in school. We hated hearing these two words - exam and test. The thought of taking a test or exam will trigger a panic attack. It is easy to see students feeling sweaty, nervous and upset in exam hall especially when all their 'expos' (aka ngbo) have been collected from them. Some teachers can be so wicked that during exam/test they would space students like planets in the solar system.

To mitigate this fear, take your studies seriously. Always read your books and don't wait till you see exam timetable before you start preparing for your exams. Don't depend on 'expo' because you may be caught and be punished. Have the mindset that even if you fail an exam/test, it is not the end of your life. You can still rewrite it some other time. Do the simple thing you are supposed to do which is nothing else apart from studying well.

2. Dystychiphobia

[img]http://1.bp..com/-Lq71OOoYn9Y/V3coyVOd9YI/AAAAAAAACzk/Cxc3IxY3CpsS6FgIzF-YYrYXP0lW8UKYgCLcB/s1600/Peace-Mass-Accident.jpg[/img]

This is the scientific label for an excessive and irrational fear for accidents. For some victims, this fear can become so severe that it will alter their life choices significantly. I have a friend who has this phobia. Whenever he wants to make a travel, he goes to toilet more than three time because of stomach upset. He abandoned his PhD program in UNIZIK because he could not cope with the fear of traveling from his home in Owerri to Awka on weekly basis. I don't blame the guy anyway because many people have lost their lives in Nigeria as a result of preventable land and air accidents.

Thinking of the numerous fatal accidents that happen on daily basis in our country is enough to give someone dystychiphobia. I know there are millions of Nigerians who are passing through this as well. Bad roads, bad drivers/riders and poor transport system are some of the major challenges we face in this country. Many of our drivers/riders are inexperienced, untrained and rude.

To mitigate this, always make use of transport companies that have good reputation in road or air safety when traveling no matter the cost. Your life is more important than money. Caution your driver when overspeeding and disembark if he refuses to drive responsibly. Apply safety precautions in everything you are doing in life whether working with/around heavy equipments, driving/riding, or making love (ha ha ha just joking). Praying for safe journey before embarking on a journey can also help calm down the fear because you will have this feeling of being in God's hands.

Many of us are living in fear of one thing or the other. Phobia which is a persistent, irrational, and excessive fear of an object or situation may result from our past experiences, shocking news the media feed us everyday,horror nollywood and hollywood movies we watch, the type of preaching we hear in our religious places nowadays, insecurity and our individual shortcomings. From a little survey carried out by me, I observed that every Nigerian has at least one or more of these 8 phobias.

1. Harpaxophobia

[img]http://1.bp..com/-jrXigP29Hyk/V3cSkANC2zI/AAAAAAAACzU/pyhHz8ZQBKEDUUkDG1AHYpvtkDKQdrHDACLcB/s1600/robbers.jpg[/img]

This is the fear of being robbed. Many of us have developed this problem due to the high level of robbery in the society. Harpaxophobia will make you sleep with only one eye in the night especially when you keep big amount of money or something very valuable to you at home. You may begin to hear imaginary sounds of human movement. Then, when you hear a real sound of human movement your mind will conclude that armed robbers have come. You will be sweating, trembling and may even faint. Similarly, anytime you go to the bank to withdraw or deposit money, your heart beats faster than normal until you have done your transactions and gone safely.

You can mitigate this problem by avoiding keeping huge amount of money with you. Having dogs in your house is also a good idea. In public, avoid carrying expensive phones and flashy things that will make your mind obsessed with the fear of being robbed. Avoid going to the bank or market alone. Go with trusted and grown up persons.

Yesterday, as I was travelling to Owerri, I learnt a new stuff which I want to share with you. It was from a fascinating lecture given by the driver that drove the vehicle I boarded. The 2 hours journey seemed like a 30 minutes drive as the driver fantastically turned the journey to a fun filled one. It all started when he nearly jammed a dog which was trying to cross the highway. To cut the story short, let me 'fast forward' it.

According to the driver, nobody can come to his house with any type of weapon without his dog detecting them. "My dog can detect anybody with gun no matter how the gun is hidden and can successfully disarm an armed robber" he boasted. This prompted a question from us, the passengers. "Driver, how did you train your dog to be this intelligent" we asked. He said that he will tell us but it will cost us a little amount of money. We promised to find him some money after the lecture. After much pleadings from the passengers, he agreed to teach us.

5. Sunday Oliseh

[img]http://4.bp..com/-S_kdDtHpsi0/V3Bumr4ZWKI/AAAAAAAACxM/XUzsjiqidvoOM_4SnUXKfQV1MdDEzEW6QCLcB/s1600/Sunday_Oliseh.jpg[/img]

Sunday Oliseh is a former Super Eagles of Nigeria's midfielder. He was the coach of the Nigerian national football team from July 14, 2015, until he resigned on February 26, 2016 some days after raining insults on Nigerians.

In 2 Youtube videos he shared, the Ex- Super Eagles Coach heaped insults on his critics, calling them insane and saying other nasty things. See links to two videos below.

Also, on the day Oliseh stripped Enyeama of the Super Eagles captaincy and handed it to Ahmed Musa, Oliseh reportedly asked security men at the Hotel Verviers in to bundle Enyeama out. Vincent Enyeama claimed that he was stripped naked by the security agents while they were carrying out the orders of Oliseh. Enyeama also claimed that Oliseh insulted his dead mother.

However, Sunday Oliseh later apologized to Nigerians on twitter and sent an apology letter to the Nigerian Football Federation(NFF) for his rant video. Below was his twitter apology.

4. Kate Henshaw

[img]http://1.bp..com/-D_lCH1T8_L0/V3BW-CH0lHI/AAAAAAAACwA/knWKmKaYELMp8b-J9Zrkxu3u_MpbnOQlgCLcB/s400/Kate_Henshaw.jpg[/img]

When you talk about the most respected actresses in nollywood, Kate Henshaw would be among the first 10.

In one Nigerian Got Talent audition in Port Harcourt, Kate Henshaw in company of Dan Foster embarrassed a guy named 'Heaven' when he showed up and tried singing. She walked out of him. It was unfair and the height of unprofessionalism on the part of Kate. Watch the video below.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Se_-IT0W4A

She was also harsh on this little guy that showed up in Asaba auditions. Without any encouragement, the little man was left in his tears. Watch below.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzVxEVfr8Og

She takes no nonsense from anyone and gets time to curse whoever that dares speak to her rudely. Insult her at your own peril. After raining a full 'Dangote' trailer load of insults on you, you will end up on your knees shivering and begging for forgiveness. Below are some screen shots of her fights with her fans. The first was an apology by a fan after Kate Henshaw has finished doing her job.

3. Nkem Owoh

Nkem Owoh, popularly called Osuofia, is an Enugu born Nigerian actor and comedian. The winner of the 2008 African Movie Academy Award for best actor in a leading role was involved in a land dispute with a widow in September 2012.

According to the widow, Mrs Gloria Ayogu, Osuofia and his thugs stormed her late husband's land and demolished her house.

"...My life and those of my children are also in danger. Nkem Owoh, a man society should look up to for good examples had severally threatened to deal with me for refusal to let him take my land. He has stated he would deal with me. And seeing the crowd of horrible looking thugs he keeps company with, I feel really threatened. A man capable of destroying such a property has the capacity to destroy just about anything standing in the way of him having his way..." the woman said in a petition to Enugu State police commissioner.

2. Seyi Law

He is one of the best stand up comedians in Nigeria comedy talk shows. But for the fact that he makes people laugh does not mean that you can mess up with him anyhow. He can give you dirty slaps that will reformat your brain back to default settings.

Comedian Seyi Law slapped a security guard, named Peter Ethan, across the face 3 times after the security guard accosted him and informed him of an alternative route he could take to ease vehicular movement at Eko Hotel and Suites Lagos State. According to reports, the resounding slaps got the poor security guard staggering for balance.

Seyi Law, on his instagram page, explained his own side of the story and tendered an apology. See it below.

Olamide (aka Baddo) is a household name in the Nigerian music entertainment industry. The 'Shakiti Bobo' crooner, a Yoruba talented street rapper, acted like a jerk on stage after MAVIN's Reekado Banks won the award for the next Rated Artist Category at the 2015 Headies Awards. This award did not go down well with YBNL boss, Olamide, who climbed the stage with his team shouting and screaming. After spewing all sorts of trash on stage like someone that smoked 'Osogbo' weed, he dropped the mic on the floor, threw away his cup with its content and walked away with his gang.

The MAVIN record Boss, Don Jazzy, came on stage and asked Olamide to come and collect the Hyundai SUV car won by MAVIN in the Headies award if that was what he wanted. This provoked Olamide more who went on twitter and blasted Don Jazzy. Below was one of his tweets against Don Jazzy.
