According to reports, the suspects brought their sick child to Auchi General Hospital, Edo State, late in the night of Friday, 7th February 2026, seeking medical treatment.

Upon sighting the suspects, Dr. Abu immediately recognized them and promptly alerted the Divisional Police Officer (DPO), Auchi Division, and other hospital authorities. The police acted swiftly and arrested the two suspects without delay. They have since been taken into custody for further investigati...

Toxicity is a trait that many adults unknowingly inherit or develop due to life experiences, traumas, or unhealthy relationships. However, if you recognize toxic patterns within yourself, it's essential to actively avoid passing these behaviors to the next generation. Children are blank slates, deeply influenced by the environment, attitudes, and behaviors they witness in their formative years. Here’s why breaking the cycle of toxicity is vital for their well-being and how to take steps toward healthier parenting. 1. Understanding Toxic Traits and Their Impact on Children Toxic traits like constant criticism, manipulation, neglect, or unhealthy anger don't just hurt those around us—they create an environment where children learn these behaviors as normal. Kids exposed to such attitudes may struggle with self-esteem, trust issues, and emotional health as they grow. They often adopt similar patterns themselves, continuing a damaging cycle. 2. Self-Awareness: A First S...

Stay away from those who try to dim your light. You know the type—small minds that can’t see beyond their own limitations.  They’ll tell you your dreams are too big, but guess what? That’s their fear talking, not yours. Surround yourself with those who lift you up, who challenge you to reach higher. Great minds inspire greatness. They see your potential and fuel your ambition. So, when someone tries to knock you down, remember: their doubts are reflections of their own insecurities. Keep pushing, keep dreaming, and let your passion shine. You’re destined for greatness, and nothing can stop you but your own belief. So, rise above, and let your journey inspire others. My dear , Don't leave without sharing this message.

When someone ignores you, it can be hurtful and confusing. But before you react, it's important to take a step back and ask yourself if their behavior is intentional.  Are they deliberately ignoring you, or are they simply busy or preoccupied with other things? Not all ignoring is deliberate. If you're certain that the person is intentionally ignoring you, here's a strategy to consider: ignore the ignored.  Instead of reacting to their ignoring, try ignoring their behavior in return. The idea behind this approach is to make them wonder why you're not bothered by their actions.  They may be trying to play with your emotions or manipulate you emotionally, but if they see that you're not reaching out to them, not responding to their messages or calls, and simply going about your life as if they don't exist, their tactic of ignoring you will likely backfire.  Think of it like this: remember how when you're desperately in need of a taxi, none seem to ...
