In the present competitive job market, when one is presented with an opportunity for a job by being invited for an interview, there are a few mistakes you should avoid for a better chance at securing employment. Unfortunately, many university graduates make these common mistakes unknowingly during interviews. It is no longer news that we have a high level of youth unemployment in Nigeria and a good number of graduates have the right skills set for the jobs they are seeking for, but they are persistently hindered at the interview stage. To scale through, these 5 tips shouldn’t be overlooked.…

Reading 1 1 Cor 2:10b-16 Brothers and sisters: The Spirit scrutinizes everything, even the depths of God. Among men, who knows what pertains to the man except his spirit that is within? Similarly, no one knows what pertains to God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand the things freely given us by God. And we speak about them not with words taught by human wisdom, but with words taught by the Spirit, describing spiritual realities in spiritual terms. Now the natural…
My subject is nothing new. It’s been around since Adam and Eve. Like the snake and the apple. It’s the enabled kid who throws a ball through a window, while the enablers, his parents, praise him for his ‘rifle arm’. And then that kid has no regard for others’ property. It’s the kid who tells mommy and daddy all the dirt on fellow siblings And is rewarded for it with carte blanche for continuing to do so and then becomes the ‘office snitch.’ It’s the rich kid who grows up with a ‘silver spoon’ in his mouth, who…
The Corse De La Maria Chapel Catholic Station, Nkwerre, was built in 1998 in honour and in loving memory of the Late Chief Emmanuel Onyechere Osigwe Anyiam-Osigwe. The Chapel was then taken as an out-station of St. Thomas Catholic Parish, Nkwerre in Nkwerre local government, Imo State by the then Catholic Bishop of Orlu Diocese His Grace Most Rev. Dr Gregory Orchiagha and has remained an out-station where masses are held on Sundays and some days of the week specifically Tuesdays and Wednesdays presently. The church has over the last twenty years held their harvest, every year on January 1.…
Holy Humour Naked Truth A pastor visited his church members one afternoon. At one house, it was obvious that someone was home, but nobody came to the door even when the pastor knocked several times. Finally, he took out his card, wrote ‘Revelation 3:20’ on the back and stuck it on the front door. ‘Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with me.’ (Rev 3:20) After the next church service, the card turned up in the collection plate.…
View this post on Instagram When DANG @dangnetwork called me to do this , I was scared out of my mind , I did not know if I was ready to be that vulnerable YET . I however knew it was for a greater purpose beyond me, I was inspired to share my experience for other people going through the motions, the emotions and feelings they probably couldn’t describe or even understand… There is a lot that couldn’t fit into the short video but I want anyone suffering from Depression to know that there is HOPE and HELP.…
Like most of you, I never believed in Love at first sight. The idea that a feeling bearing such magnitude can be felt with no prior encounter just seemed ridiculous to me. How can I love someone who hasn’t proved to be worthy of my love yet? From this simple logic, I developed my love mantra: I would never date a man who didn’t give me a reason to love him and even after he did, I’d first test the waters with just one finger. (Don’t blame me; I had a deep-rooted trust issue.) Holding on to my decision was…
One of the most remarkable public health successes of the last decade in southern Africa has been a reduction in the number of babies born with HIV. This was achieved through the provision of antiretroviral therapy to pregnant and breastfeeding women living with HIV. For example, the number of new HIV infections in children in South Africa has come down from a peak of 70 000 in 2003 to 13 000 in 2017. Nevertheless, worldwide there are still an estimated 14.8 million children under the age of 15 who were born HIV uninfected but have been exposed to their mother’s HIV during pregnancy.…
…Continued from Chapter Eight. “Good day ma’am, it’s nice to meet you, my name is doctor Obi and I’ll be in charge of your sessions” First off, I was shocked at how young and good looking this psychotherapist was. His voice was so soothing; it could put anyone to sleep. “I guess all this charm is part of the credentials one needs to be a psychotherapist,” I thought to myself. “Hi, I am Ebun,” I said, still recovering from the daze and a little short of words. “I like to establish trust before I start a session with patients,” he…
From boyfriend jeans to granddad blazers, womenswear is taking a large chunk of inspiration from menswear and owning the entire block. (Who says women can’t do it better than men?) On the shelf of newly appropriated fashion items is the dad sneakers (Yep! Dad’s aren’t safe from our wardrobe raiding tactics, either). Like the other demasculinized pieces, the dad sneakers would have never caught our attention even if we weren’t in the right frame of mind. But in fashion, it’s unwise to say ‘never’. Who wants to wear their dad’s sneakers, anyway? The stylish and cool kids wouldn’t mind; they’ve…
