A SHORT REALITY ON GROUND.

The pains of being used and dumped comes with grinding of teeth and regret when one remember.

It is actually what it is that we have allowed ourselves to be used by some persons to advance their selfish course.

From relationships, church, political fold etc, we give in too much not knowing the intent of the other person since we can't read their heart's message.

Politically, lots of political mobilisers, grassroots campaigners, and even individual who at one point felt they were doing the right thing have been used and dumped by those they felt was their man.

"Do you know that my incumbent l.g.a chairman, during his campaign, asked me to sell my car in order for me to help him actualised his dream of becoming the chairman....."

".... afterwards he didn't pick my calls as often has he used to call me when he was nursing his intention." (name withheld).

This has always been the case in politics and other sphere of life but the annoying part is that we have failed to learn our lessons.

Political thugs, boys as they would loved them to be called, campaigners, mobilisers and supporters have had to swallow their bitter pills as most of the political aspirants used a lot of them to advance their self-centered course.

I have just read about one Mr (name withheld) declaring his intention for one political office in Mkpat Enin LGA as we dance towards the chairmanship elections calendar.

My concern for Mkpat Enin LGA is the credibility of the aspirants for the chairmanship seat bearing in mind what we have been experiencing over the years.

My concern is also on Mkpat Enin students' welfare across all the institution of higher learning in Nigeria.

My concern is further on who really have the interest of Mkpat Enin youths at heart.

Not some kind of chairman that would used Mkpat Enin youths to actualised his dream and after dumped them for good.

My concern is a chairman that will be picking your calls without you having to call PAs.

Don't allow one use you to advance his selfish course.

DON'T LEAVE WHEN IT IS TOO LATE.

The story . Udauk was too weak to continue with the evening chores around the house because of her pregnancy. She bent over the kitchen cabinet in search of a tuber of yam she was to prepare before her husband returned from work. At the point of stretching her hands to reach the tuber of yam under the cabin, she felt a sharp pain down her abdomen. Her left lap was swollen from the beating she got the previous night from the monster's husband. She was still short of three months from her due month. That's when she was to put to birth. The shape pain was accompanied by a loud scream. She dropped the knife she had with her and tried to settle on a table-size stool lying close to the gas cylinder in the kitchen, but she couldn't. She fell and started screaming, reached out to her phone, and dialed her husband. Mr. Sam had branched Madam G's Native Kitchen to settle for a while before heading home as his habit demands. He was busy at his usual joint with a bottle of chill ...

Social Media: Are we swallowed by it? It is alarming yet no longer news the rate of social media usage since the turn of the millennium. Social Media has become a tool in nearly every 9/ 10 persons we meet everyday of our lives.

With the number of people flooding the Social media on per second basis, one will wonder if these technology has any bad effect at all.

TILL DEATH DO US APART

The story. She wanted to fix this once and for all. She felt it was her obligation and responsibility to try and fix her marriage. It is true that when love can no longer sustain the marriage, commitment, and sense of responsibility does. This was Elma's concern. Though things were never what she expected, especially after having an affair with her personal assistant, she felt she could rekindle the love and bring her home. Shutting the door of the penthouse behind Mark her boyfriend, Elma warned him never to call again, not when she was trying to fix her home and get back with her husband. After Mark drove off, Elma took a step backward from where she was, fell on the bed and sobbed profusely. It was hard for her to see him leave. In the past six months of knowing Mark, he made her feel loved again and provided her a shoulder to cry on. He made her forget the horrors George her husband made her pass through in the last three years. Elma left the penthouse that n...
