Values and Vices

Happy Children's Day from us all at Values and Vices...

The recent unrest in many parts of Nigeria is a cause for re-evaluation.

We need to teach our kids not to discriminate, we ought to do this in deeds and in words.

Statements like "Ibos are cheats", "Fulanis are killers", "Yorubas are dirty", etc shouldn't be spoken or indulged by us especially around kids.

If an individual misbehaves isolate said person's actions and hold him/her responsible for those actions.

Don't label an entire tribe, religion or generation because of actions of individuals from said groups.

Bad behaviour is not a function of ethnicity, religion or nationality, it is a personal choice that must be treated as that.

Happy New Week People..

Let's make it a courteous one.
Do you know that when you're courteous people like you more and are more willing to deal with you?

Always say "Thank you" when you receive a service, no matter who is providing the service.

Always say "Please" when requesting a service, no matter who is providing the service.

It costs you nothing to be courteous, but it can earn you everything.

An "Omoluabi" is a son of the soil, one who embodies the Yoruba culture. Only men of value can attain this status. True value is in character.
(P.S. son refers to all genders likewise the use of men)

Are you an "Omoluabi"?

How do you say "Omoluabi" in your culture?
