Though many people see Organic Chemistry as tedious, I agree because of the numerous chemical structures and formulas invol...

As the May 29 handover date draws near, fresh controversy over the election results has been ignited between the Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress in Rivers and Akwa Ibom states. According to two online portals,  Premium Times  and  Sahara Reporters , the governorship elections in the two states were flawed.

Speaking in separate interviews with  SUNDAY PUNCH  on Saturday, the State Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr. ...

LEADERSHIP MEANS DISCOMFORT if you are going to be a successful Leader, you are going to experience a great amount of discomfort. we live in a culture that worship comfort.

We have learned to control our environment with central heating and Air conditioning. we have reduced drudgery with machines and computers. and learned to control pain, depression, and stress. we even provide electronic antidotes to boredom with television set and video games.  Most of this is to the good, but unfortunately it has created an impression that the purpose of life is to attain a blissful state of nirvana, a total absence of struggle or strain. the emphasis is on consuming not producing; on short-term hedonism rather than long-term satisfaction. we seek immediate gratification of our desires, with no penalties. Life just doesn't work that way, at least not for many and not for long. one ...
