BE AN INTRAPRENEUR: DON’T BE TARDY – By dGrammarQueen Stella Nnodi
His attitude to work amazes and fazes everyone. The impunity. The brand-new story for every time he is late. Brazen, blatant. Lackadaisical.
African Complicity in the Slave Trades and Its Lingering Effects: By Prof Joseph C. A. Agbakoba
It is important to note that the locally brewed gin from the raffia palm juice, mostly known by such names as kaikai or ekpeteshi, did not predate the colonial era but rather arose out of scarcity of hot drinks during the Great Depression following which the importation of alcoholic beverages declined.

Graffiti and informal education: By Erasmus Ndulue

The media is agog once again with incredible reports of the horrific and rapacious acts of men who should be living in the caves and wild forests.
Rape is the talking point now even though this is not the first time. Remember the sad story of the misguided and naive daughter of a retired army officer who was brutally raped and murdered by heartless business prospects who ensnared her to her doom.
