"Why am I here, why was I born, why did I find my self in this locality, what is the purpose of me?" The questions above reflected on the minds of a young lady who has passed through hell, as she might be assuming. She has always faced the bad side of life, a girl who has fore-once given up and tried committing suicide. Misery has always been her meal as she talked to me in tears at my office. "I was raped by my own uncle, after the sudden death of my caring parent. I have committed abortion several times and I can't even give account. My whole life is filled with misery and shame" As if that wasn't enough, I was thinking her story ends there. She looks at me in pains and continued. "I am infected with disease which will soon claim my life I feel terrible. I know there is no more hope again, I can't wait for death to take me, I will rather kill my self. I have to end this shame, I have no brother, no sister neither do I have a relative t...

Mental health is all about self-esteem, your identity, your self-worth, your dreams,your pride, your dignity, and a meaningful life. Most times we think of our physical wellbeing.

It's hurts, it's really hurt, seeing children pass through this type of horrific life. Tears ripple down my cheeks when I sat down to listen to a young girl, who narrated her story to me. These were her words. "They killed my parents before my very presence, they invalided our home and took away our only money. They called them selves black agents. What has my family done to deserve such an ill treatment" the little girl wept before me as she continues "They have no conscience, haven't they taken all they wanted, they still went ahead to rape me at my little age of 11. I was left all alone with my dead parents on the floor. Misery became my meal all through. I was made to hawk on the street, and even get more raped at every single day. Life is unfair to me. I couldn't continue listening , it was indeed a long story, too long to narrate I could imagine the torture this little girl must have passed through. On the street of Nigeria, we have s...

An educated man with so many degrees will never mind all that but stick to one thing, which is "saving of lives" What gave them that courage?
