The advent of internet has almost crippled letter writing (the one you do through the post office) and have also brought with it common email blunders. It has dispersed the thronging crowds in post offices who longed to communicate with their loved ones. Daily, countless electronic mails fly via computers and mobile devices across the world. So, here are four common email blunders to avoid: No Email Subject Line/heading Just like a news story headline, mail subject line gives the recipient a peep into the content of your mail. This is most important for busy persons/professionals who are bombarded by tonnes of mails. Your mail has more chances of being given the needed attention if it has a subject. Don’t leave your mail naked, ensure you adorn it with a beautiful attire that will leave the receiver drooling to see what’s inside. No/poor salutation Except you’re sending the mail to your friend, or your mum, there is need for a formal salutation. Don’t make the mistake hitting ‘send’ without a proper salutation; that’s a one email blunder you’d avoid! There are no hard and fast rule about this as you can use salutations like: ‘Hello, Michael’, ‘Good day, Tochi’, or even the normal ‘Dear sir/ma’. Whichever way you want it to be, ensure it is appropriate for the receiver. No introduction This is a bit related to having a salutation. Again, this is where you sell yourself to the reader. If the person has not meet you before, the introduction is the perfect chance to strike a positive impression. Take a look at this introduction line for one of the mails I sent: “I’m Adewole, a content development strategist, social media expert. I help individuals/organizations leverage on the power of the new media to build a reputable brand.” A finely cut introduction breaks the defence wall in the heart of the mail receiver and would, invariably, lead him to reading on –you’ve already hypnotized him. After this, you can now table your request and burrow deeper like a rabid rabbit. No signing off Depending on your aim, your signing off might be take different dimensions –provided it passes your message well. It’s like leaving a final impression on your recipient; akin to closing the door well after being allowed to enter a room. “Thanks for your time. I look forward to scheduling a growth hack meeting with you, at your earlier convenience, if my proposal interests you. Regards, Adewole Emeka.” What common email blunders have you noticed in sending mails? http://theflowingink.com/common-email-blunders-avoid/ |

Everton striker, Wayne Rooney has been banned from driving for two years as well as being handed 100 hours of community service after a court found him guilty of drink-driving. Rooney pleaded guilty to the charges, admitting that he has let his family and fans down. “Wayne wishes to express his genuine remorse for this terrible error of judgement that evening,” the court said. “He’s let not only himself down but his family down. He also acknowledges he has let his fans down.” Rooney, 31, was arrested in the early hours of September 1 after being pulled over by the police few miles away from his Prestbury, Cheshire home. It was gathered that the Ex-Manchester United and England captain was found to be over the prescribed limit. He was released on bail after being charged but will now appear in court, Monday. United defeated Everton 4-0 on Sunday in Rooney’s first match against them since he rejoined Everton during the last transfer window. Rooney spent 13 years at the Old Trafford where he won five English Premier League crowns and netted 253 goals. http://dailyherald.ng/drink-driving-wayne-rooney-given-100-hours-of-community-service/

The Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), has alleged that hundreds of its members in Rivers State and Abia, have not been accounted for since the beginning of the clash between it and the Nigerian Army. In a statement by the Spokesman of IPOB, Emma Powerful, Thursday, it noted that those missing have been presumed dead. “Hundreds of Biafran youths are still missing and presumed dead at the time of this statement. The few survivors of the Isiala Ngwa massacre, taken to secret detention centres in army barracks in and around Abia and Rivers states, are still unaccounted for,” Emma Powerful said. He noted that they have a ‘video footage’ of “men of the Nigerian Army stationed at Isiala Ngwa junction (in Abia State) dragging people out of their vehicles and executing them in cold blood in broad daylight.” In addition, the group accused the Nigerian Army of “Genocide and mass killings of Biafrans and Christian communities, especially in northern Nigeria, are nothing new. What is more troubling this time is that certain political office holders in the South-East are comfortable with the idea of inviting Hausa-Fulani Islamic army to come into Abia State to execute hundreds of young men and women in cold blood simply for asking for their right to self-determination. “We hold Major Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai and Governor Okezie Ikpeazu as majorly responsible for the cold-blooded executions going on now in and around Abia State at this trying time. “Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu saw it fit to invite the Nigerian military with their deplorable human rights record, to his state to kill civilians.” http://dailyherald.ng/hundreds-of-ipob-members-missing-dead-ipob/

Congrats, op. It's not easy. There's no need watering down the result. It's a good one. He can gain admission with it. I used NECO for my admission into UNIBEN. I've graduated since 2014 and came out with a 2.1). Don't mind anyone saying NECO is for "dull" students. Work smart and hard in school; you'll come out in flying colors. Congrats, again! |

FC IfeanyiUbah goal keeper, Ikechukwu Ezenwa, has said he was very confident when Gernot Rohr told him he will be in goal for the 2018 FIFA World Cup double header against Cameroon. The Super Eagles had to fall back on Ezenwa after injury and sickness left out Daniel Akpeyi and Carl Ikeme respectively from the squad. Speaking with Complete Sports Nigeria, the CHAN Eagles captain said that he had been preparing for such opportunity for years and thus was ready when called upon. “Well, I will say it was very important for me because I have been waiting for this opportunity for long,” Ezenwa said. “Don’t forget I’d been understudying Carl Ikeme and then Daniel Akpeyi who are both very good goalkeepers and they are doing very well for the team if not for the injury that knocked Daniel out and Carl’s battle with leukemia. So I could say I was sufficiently prepared because I’d learnt a lot from them.” In addition, he said that: “I just had the belief that I can do it and it’s something I’ve been expecting for a long time. When the coach announced that I will be in goal, the first thing that came to my mind was ‘Ikechukwu, you can do it‘, and by the special grace of God I did it.” When asked if he was scared of the Cameroonians, he said: “No, I wasn’t scared of playing against Cameroon. Football is a universal sport that speaks one language. Don’t forget I have been doing this for a long time and preparing myself for a time like this. “I have played continental games for my club and also internationals for the national teams but why this is different is that it is the World Cup qualifiers so the stakes are very high. I felt no extra pressure at all.” http://dailyherald.ng/how-i-felt-when-rohr-told-me-i-will-play-against-cameroon-ikechukwu-ezenwa/
