Tips for a successful relationship by Ogiri John Ogiri. Success in a relationship is a function of mutual respect and understanding between the parties involved in such a relationship.  Whatever your partner doesn't like or  is not comfortable with, please don't do it. Remember that when you hadn't met him or her yet , when you were still alone, you could do whatever pleased you. But now that you're in a relationship with that special person, you must understand that your opinion alone shouldn't count anymore. Seek her opinions.  Listen to her suggestions. In addition, Live by the precept of the Golden Rule " Do to others what you want them to do to you. Don't do to others what you wouldn't want them to do to you."  If it hurts you, know that it hurts her more. If it can hurt you, know that it can hurt him the more. Don't be selfish. Further more, if you hear anything bad or negative about your partner, don't start getting mad without f...

Thursday, 5 July 2012 The MANY CHALLENGES OF THE NIGERIAN NATION By Ogiri John Ogiri From the North to the South as well as from the East to the West of Nigeria, general insecurities, corruption and deprivations possess the land. It is no longer news that a larger proportion of the over 167 million Nigerians go to bed hungry every day and night. It is also glaring that bombings targeted at government security formations as well as Christian churches have become the order of the day in the country. Only recently, suicide bomb attacks targeted at two separate churches in Kaduna metropolis and Zaria by the Boko Haram Islamic insurgents sparked a devastating wave of reprisal attacks in the metropolis and its environs. In the ensuing pogrom, hundreds of lives were lost, properties worth millions of naira were destroyed and thousands of people were rendered homeless. This is not to mention the colossal loss in terms of lives and properties in similar incidences in Kano, Maiduguri, Yobe, B...

THREE CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE AND WHY THEY'RE THERE                                                  BY                                      OGIRI JOHN OGIRI People come into your life for different purposes- some for a season (in their moments of sorrows, trials or while they're yet to get a better option they love more than you ), some for a reason ( probably because of your beauty, protruding busts, your gorgeous curves or because they're hurting and so need a shoulder to rest on for a while ) while others come to stay forever.

What is happening in our world today? What has happened to true Christianity expounded and taught by Apostle James in James 1:27? Today,true religion has died a natural death and has since been buried in the sepulchre of materialistic theology. Go to any Christian church today and you will discover that it's all launching and fundraising ceremony masquerading as sermons. In fact, if a priest or pastor's preaching is devoid of a mention of monetary giving, he's considered as someone out of touch with modernity in religion. He is not a committed church man of the 21st century. Before now, the church used to be a refuge for the needy seeking comfort for his or her soul. I can still recall when I was a little boy of about 9 years old. I always was fascinated by the selfless lifestyle of the missionary priests who could even give up their personal comfort so that the poor in my village then could have their needs met. As a matter of fact, I was so highly inspired by their way o...

I have been away for a while now. I have been very busy contributing my quota to knowledge development and education somewhere. I haven't really resumed writing here yet. I just stopped by to congratulate Nigerians on the recent inauguration of the federal executive council by Mr. President, His Excellency, Alhaji Muhammadu Buhari.  We have waited patiently for this moment.

Dear Mr. President, let me affirm my staunchest belief in your capacity to rescue this nation from the precipice in which it currently finds herself. I know you can because you have the strongest political will to do it.  Inspired by this confidence, I would like to suggest that you continue the fight against corruption with renewed vigour. Fear no foe; spare no friend. Even if, at the end of the day, the only achievement of your...
