Last week, the nation was gripped by the horror of a video of a two year, 11-month-old pupil of Chrisland School, Lekki, Lagos portraying her alleged serial defilement by the school’s supervisor Adegboyega Adenekan, 47.

This is the third part of a 5-part series of articles written in a male column addressed to the sisters. The author sees it as a reverse way of talking to the brothers to mend their ways in matters concerning the heart where the sisters are concerned. PROMISES – PROMISES I recall an article I read on Pride Nigeria online in the Dear Dorothy column way back in May 2014 with the same title.
