CaptainOjemba: The reason you are at peace with people who hack others to death I presume is because you are a globally confirmed coward and you do nothing even when there is injustice. I am so proud that my tribe has never been labbeled cowardly. I will rather love ambition than cowardice. We are not Lazy. We thrive every where we are . Same cant be said of your tribe and the fact that we own all the major markets in Lagos gives you the hibby jibbies. Guy get a life! or a job! We are successful and no amount of genocide will erase that. How come you hate us that much! because we are independent and strong and of course hard working. How come all the jokes of laziness or cowardice is never directed at the Igbo man. Think about it and shame yourself! We dont ruin Lagos.. The cowards and Lazy dazies do that. We run Lagos economically and that is the only strength Lagos has and that economical strength come from the people who own the markets while the lazy low lifes shout ' OWO mi da? Baba agba and wait from hand outs even from people they hate! Kai! like the mallams will say! Too bad! 3 Likes |

SUNDAY LAUGHTER...*** I was driving down a street along Alausa, having just finished answering a call, when a policeman, suddenly, opened the passenger door, entered and jam-locked it. (The door lock is faulty) As usual, he wanted 'something' from me for calling while driving... Suddenly, he saw the big Rothweiller dog, Jackie, at the back seat of the car, with tongue stuck out, spittle dripping and fangs barring, staring fiercely at him. Policeman: (Shaking) Ah! You carry dog? Me: (I bone face) Yes, I carry dog. Dat one na offense? Policeman: (Feeling uncomfortable) Na where una dey come from? Me: From hospital. Policeman: Ehen! you sick?

How to Protect Your Children from Sexual Abuse during this Christmas Season ‘Strangers are not the greatest danger to your children so parents protect your child from child sexual abuse’ As a parent, it's natural to worry about your kids. After all, you want to protect them from the evils of the world. Chief among those evils is sexual abuse. But, how can you talk to your kids about safety without scaring them to death? And what's the best way to protect them from sexual predators? We have seen cases in which children have been sexually assaulted every day. From big, shocking, headline-making scandals like the one fueled by Cynthia Osukogu’s painful demise to the one-off incidents in which teachers, coaches, and other trusted adults take advantage of innocent children. We gasp and are outraged, but most of all we worry what if that was our child. More importantly, however, we must ask what we can do to lessen the odds that our children will be victims. While there are no guarantees that we can we can keep them safe, there are some steps we can take to help do so The festive season is a time of celebration and sharing of good times with family and friends. There might be more parties, more friends and more family in your home. You might be traveling and staying with people you do not see every day. The down side of this wonderful time of year is that the risk for child sexual abuse increases. Children love the Christmas season. So do child predators. Many parents relax their vigilance during the festive season, routines change and children are allowed more freedom of movement. Add to this a greater exposure to (sometimes) little known family and friends and adults who tend to consume more alcohol and it makes for an ideal hunting ground for sexual predators looking for child victims. Statistics say that up to 90 percent of child sexual abuse is perpetrated by family members or family friends. How do you protect your little ones during this time of greater risk, without spoiling anybody’s festive fun? The first step is to be aware of the added danger. By being awake and watchful (you do not have to be paranoid) you can often prevent bad things from happening. Keep an eye on your kids during festivities. Know where they are and who they are with. Remember, just because somebody is dressed as Santa, doesn’t mean he/she is safe! Talk often with your child and set a tone of openness. Talking openly and directly will let your child know that it’s okay to talk to you when they have questions. If your child comes to you with concerns or questions, make time to listen and talk to them. Trust your instincts when it comes to friends and family. If somebody makes you feel uncomfortable in his/her actions or words towards children, do not let him/her spend any time alone with the kids. The same goes for anybody with a reputation for inappropriate behavior towards kids. Abusers almost never stop abusing kids without help. Remember older children can also sexually abuse little ones. Keep an eye on teenagers who want to spend all of their time with little kids. Most sexual abuse happens when there is one on one contact between the abuser and the child. By limiting the time your child spends with adults and older children to people you really trust, you can decrease the risk of abuse. Teach your child key safety principles. For instance: • Teach children the names of their body parts so that they have the language to ask questions and express concerns about those body parts. • If your child is uncomfortable or if someone is touching them, s/he should tell a trusted adult immediately. • Let your children know that if someone is touching them or talking to them in ways that make them uncomfortable that it shouldn’t stay a secret. Limit the amount of alcohol that is consumed when there are children around. Many cases of child sexual abuse happen when the adults responsible for looking after the children are drunk. Parties like that are not appropriate for children. Speak to your kids about personal safety. This can be done in a way that is not frightening to kids at all. Teach them to trust and develop their instincts by not insisting that they kiss and hug adults that make them feel uncomfortable. Speak up for them if you see somebody acting inappropriate. I know this can sometimes cause offence, but people who value your child’s safety will understand. Enjoy the festive season, but remember that kids cannot keep themselves safe. That’s your job. Your child should know that s/he has the right to speak up if they are uncomfortable, or if someone is touching them. It’s okay to say “no” even to adults they know and family members. Try and monitor your child's online friends but do it with respect. Educate yourself about the warning signs of childhood sexual abuse. Know what to look for, and the best way to respond.

How to Protect Your Child from Sexual Abuse in Nigeria [img][/img][url][www.cornucopiaebooks.com/images/CSA.pdf] As many as one in three girls and one in seven boys will be sexually abused at some point in their childhood, according to "Stop It Now!" cornucopiaebooks@gmail.com www.cornucopiaebooks.com/images/CSA.pdf With growing public awareness in Nigeria that child sexual abuse is far more prevalent than previously believed, many parents are wondering how to protect their kids from sexual predators. As many as one in three girls and one in seven boys will be sexually abused at some point in their childhood, according to "Stop It Now!," an international organization that aims to prevent sexual abuse of children by "mobilizing adults, families and communities to take actions that protect children before they are harmed." "Parents must be aware of the fact that most sexual abuse cases involve a person the child knows, strangers are not the greatest danger to your children,” says, Chidinma Stella Onuoha, a lawyer and author of the recently released e-book, ‘Protect Your Child from Sexual Abuse in Nigeria’. In this book, the author focuses on both preventive and corrective steps toward fighting the child sexual abuse scourge in Nigeria. The effects of childhood sexual abuse can be debilitating and long-lasting," says Chidinma. "It can result in major psychological, emotional, and physical disorders including substance abuse, depression, sexual dysfunction, eating disorders, and an inability to have healthy, happy relationships." The reality of Child Sexual Abuse is a terrifying concept - but it is something that every parent needs to face because knowledge is power! The fact is that nearly every incident of sexual abuse is preventable, with simple steps that parents can take. Though parenting is the toughest job out there, it is also the area where one gets the least expertise. What makes it particularly challenging is the fact that society looks forward to entrusting every child's safety and protection to the parents. Thus, parents should know first-hand how to deal with any kind of child problems and issues, including sexual abuse. Parents should have a plan for protecting their children! There is a plan of protecting your loved ones which is embodied in an e-book, ‘Protect Your Child from Sexual Abuse in Nigeria’. This e-book will show: •The harsh realities of child sexual abuse in Nigeria, •the pain that child sexual abuse causes and the false beliefs that child sexual abuse create, •how to recognize the warning signs •How to keep a child safe from sexual abuse •who sexually abuses children? •How and where abusers gain access to children •Steps to healing where sexual abuse has already happened •Celebrities that have survived child sexual abuse • the nongovernmental organizations in Nigeria (and their addresses) that can help you deal with child sexual abuse when it has happened Parents Are Funny and they're so funny about believing that child sexual abuse can only happen to the "other person’s child". It doesn't! Do not take things for granted; it is better to be safe than sorry. Child sexual abuse has many harmful and devastating effects on its young victims - physically, mentally and spiritually -- leaving scars that can last a lifetime. Please think about it.
