There was a house where I often found myself fetching water. It was a routine task, one that I had performed countless times without giving it much thought. But one fateful day, amidst the rhythmic creaking of the water pump, my heart skipped a beat as I laid eyes on a girl named Ochanya. From that moment on, my visits to the water house took on a new purpose. I would steal glances at her radiant smile and her lively eyes, finding myself drawn to her in a way I had never experienced before. However, as much as I longed to express my feelings to her, I knew that spoken words could be ephemeral, easily forgotten over time. Valentine's Day approached, and it felt like the perfect opportunity to convey the depth of my emotions. Instead of relying on spoken words, I decided to capture my feelings on paper—a medium that would forever preserve the essence of what I wished to convey. I poured my heart onto the page, articulating every sentiment and every secret longing I held for Ochanya...

Here's why it is wrong to collect gifts from people you refuse to date: False hope and emotional manipulation: When someone expresses their romantic interest by giving you gifts, they are essentially investing their time, effort, and emotions into building a connection with you. By accepting their gifts while knowing you do not reciprocate their feelings, you are leading them on and creating false hope. This behavior can be emotionally manipulative, as you are using their affection to your advantage while disregarding their genuine emotions. Exploitation and unequal power dynamics: Accepting gifts from some...

In the realm of metaphors, where stories blend with reality, there once lived a patient dog. This dog was renowned for its ability to sit comfortably and consume fat bones when people are done eating, earning it the reputation of being the fattest bone-eater in the land. People marveled at its seemingly insatiable appetite and attributed its success to unwavering determination and perseverance. However, as time passed, the once prosperous dog fell on hard times.

They had swallowed, hook, line, and sinker, the promises and illusions presented to them by the immediate pa...

It is essential to recognize that what has occurred is already done and cannot be changed. Blame-shifting serves no productive purpose, and it is important to refrain from assigning fault to specific groups or individuals. As the tenure of the PDP in Benue approaches its end, it is disheartening to witness the idoma and igede people pointing fingers at the Tiv people for the failure of the PDP-led government. Within the Tiv community, zone A, Jemgbagh, and Jechira engage in similar blame-shifting, holding the MINDA people responsible for the shortcomings. Among the MINDA people, the Ihyaregh and Masive direct their blame towards the Nongov people. Further down the line, the Kaambe and Saghvev among the Nongov people have now labeled the administration as the Ndzoruv administration. It is certain that within the Ndzoruv community, the isherev and ishamior will shift the blame to mbabeagh. However, it is crucial to acknowledge that blame shifting is never a solution and will never be....
