On January 9th, 2023, at 1:54 a.m., a shocking video of teenage girls beating and flogging a friend went viral. The girls screamed “man snatcher” while pulling her braids, pouring soapy water on her, and beating their undressed friend on the floor outside the house in the video.

Setting targets is one way to keep yourself focused on what you aim to achieve. You could have had targets or set goals for 2022, some of which were successful and some of which were not. A new year means another chance to achieve your life goals. Your targets should reflect who you are, what you live for, what you intend to accomplish this year, and where you plan to be.

There has been a rampant rage of fires that have destroyed educational institutions, particularly secondary and primary schools.

We have all gone through grief at a certain point in our lives, be it the loss of a loved one, divorce, or the sudden end of a relationship, among others. This will require us to go in for counseling or therapy as a way to recover from this situation.

As the year nears its end, the 1st of December is here for us to be joyful. As many of our friends are filling the chat rooms with happy new month wishes, I will fill yours with a bit of awareness. It’s World AIDS Day!
