Ways to stay stress free at work

Sometimes working round the clock under various demands at work can get really stressful. Yes, it’s true that life is not that easy; especially when you have to meet innumerable deadlines and deal with the day-to-day chaos at work. This is why, we give you the top seven ways to be stress free and cheerful at work.

1. Get organized:
No matter how old school this may sound, being as organized as possible can be the best way to avoid stress at work. If you have your plans in place and a proper schedule of how you will go about it, then there are less chances of struggling to cope up with various situations.

2. Meditate:
Stress is all in the mind and the best way to control your mind is meditation. It will be great if you can indulge in some amount of yoga or meditation early in the morning which will at least give a peaceful start to the day. Yes, it may seem a bit of a task in the beginning, especially when you take your hectic schedule into consideration, but this reallyworks.

3. Indulge in hobbies:
‘All work and no play makes jack a dull boy’. Yes that’s pretty much proven and it goes the same for all age groups. If you will indulge yourself in some kind of a hobby during weekends, then it will ease out all the pressure and within no time, you will be smiling like a child. Go get those guitar lessons that you always wanted to learn, indulge yourself in painting if you have an artistic zeal. If beingindoors is not your thing, then try to play a sport that you enjoy the most.

4. Listen to music:
It’s proven that music has the power to elevate your spirits whenever and wherever you are. Take a break at work, take out yourheadphones and listen to your favorite artist or a soothing piece of music you really like. It will somehow relieve you of the hundred stressful ideas running in your head and will pep you up to keep you going for therest of the day.

5. Don’t get lost in the rat race:
Agreed that a healthy competition always helps bring out the best in you, but it’s equally true that once you get addicted to cut throat competition, the situation may turn into a nightmare for you. Strive to bring out the best in you andcompete with yourself. Do notcompete with anyone around you. This way, you will find that working is much more enjoyable and your optimisticattitude will be reflected in your productivity levels.

6. Talk to your friends:
Yes, talking comes naturally to you and this will be the easiest tip to follow. Just when you feel a little stressed or demotivated, ring up a friend and talk to them. Friends can be the biggest stress busters and can magically put a smile on your face. A short conversation with your friend will help uplift your mood and motivate you to face your plight.

7. Be goal-oriented:
Stress can really take a toll sometimes and it may even pressurize you to give up on many occasions. Just fix your goals in your head and say to yourself ‘I can face this’. Write your goals on a piece of paper and pin it on your desk and make sure you read it everyday. When you feel like giving up, look at it and this will keep you going, no matter what.

Stress and work pressure are a part of a working life. They should be dealt with patience and perseverance. These tips will surely help take some amount of pressure off your head and make your workplace a better place to be in.

School girl missed exam after she slept in April and woke up in JUNE

THIS sleepy schoolgirl missed her GCSEs after nodding off in April and waking up last week. Sleepy Stacey Comerford, 15, suffers from a rare neurological disorder which means she enters a sleeping state for months at a time. The last – her longest at TWO months – meant she missed NINE exams after being predicted straight As. Stacey, from Telford, Shropshire, is just one of 1,000 people worldwide to suffer from Kleine Levin Syndrome also known as Sleeping Beauty Syndrome. Strange isn't it ?

Pregnant woman dies as Chelsea fans celebrate victory

At least one person was reportedly killed while several others sustained serious injuries during Chelsea victory celebration on Saturday. The deceased, who was identified as a pregnant lady, was killed in the Ikotun area of the state by gunmen who took advantage of the jubilation to rob innocent residents. According to residents “The entire area was rowdy after the match and some gunmen, who stormed the area, went into the shop of one pregnant lady and robbed her. They shot her before fleeing. She was rushed to a nearby hospital but died soon afterwards.” In Somolu area, a man was reportedly stabbed in the eye after being unable to pay up his bet. An eyewitness, Mr. Adewunmi Brown, “Before the match began, I already knew there would be trouble because the last time Chelsea won, there was pandemonium. So, on Saturday, I was at a pub on Kadupe Street. After Chelsea won, two guys began arguing about money and before we knew it, one stabbed the other in the eye. I quickly ran away into my compound and locked the gate but the entire area was filled with jubilation. Some of the fans, who were obviously drunk, took off their clothes and were roaming the streets naked.” According to Punch newspaper, another man, Obi, was also stabbed in the eye for mocking football fans in Orile area of the state. A resident, Matthew Ajie, said after Chelsea had won the match, Obi was insulting the fans, calling them hooligans for the manner in which they were celebrating. In Ojota area, some jubilant fans were said to have blocked a part of the Ikorodu Expressway to extort money from motorists. Meanwhile, the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Joseph Jaiyeoba, said he was not aware of any death or pandemonium associated with the match, saying that the police had put in place measures to forestall the breakdown of law and order.

Young teen sells Kidney for ipad2

A Chinese teenager was so desperate to acquire the new iPad 2 that he sold one of his kidneys for just £2,000 to pay for it, according to reports. The 17-year-old boy, identified only by his surname, “Zheng”, confessed to his mother that he had sold the kidney after spotting an online advertisement offering cash to anyone prepared to become an organ donor “I wanted to buy an iPad 2, but I didn’t have the money,” the boy told Shenzhen TV in the southern province of Guangdong, “When I surfed the internet I found an advert posted online by agent saying they were able to pay RMB20,000 to buy a kidney.” After negotiations, the boy travelled north to the city of Chenzhou in Hunan Province where the kidney was removed at a local hospital which discharged him after three days, paying a total of RMB22,000 for the organ.

Rochas Doles out 27 Billion naira to the 27 LG's

Imo State Government has released the sum of N1b to each of the 27 local government areas to execute 15km road projects and other capital projects which it had earlier approved. Out of this amount, the sum of N200m will first be released for the first phase of the projects.

The chairmen were equally requested to acquire 100 hectares of land for other projects like general hospitals, guest house, mini-stadium and housing scheme. A joint government project committee comprising commissioners, special advisers, chairmen of transition committee, members of the State Assembly and senior special assistants in each LGA was constituted while the Speaker, Imo State House of Assembly, Hon. Benjamin Uwajimogu is to chair the Rural Road Inspection Committee. The communiqué also highlighted the establishment of a fourth-tier of government in Imo State known as Community Government Council (CGC) which will be headed by the traditional rulers while the president-generals, community speakers, woman and youth leaders will serve as members. It further stated that election into the community government council will hold on April 2012, while the state Attorney-General works out the logistics for the polls. The Community Government Councils are however directed to take over the management of health centres while those that don’t have are directed to apply to the Commissioner for Health. Under the arrangement, all qualified communities will be entitled to monthly subventions as those that don’t qualify may be merged for administrative convenience. While former development area headquarters are to be used as Community Government Council headquarters for those communities where they are located, other public buildings will be converted for same purpose where they are located. http://www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/index.php/newsextra/35454-imo-councils-get-n27b-for-capital-projects.html

Nigerians , Biggest spenders in London

According to London Evening Standard, Nigerians are one of the biggest spenders in London.
Here is their interesting report on the spending habits of Nigerians..........

In February last year, sales to Nigerians were up 50 per cent in London shops on a year earlier, while overall in 2011 Selfridges says their spending was up by over a quarter and that Nigerians have been among its top 10 overseas shoppers for the past five years.
On their shopping lists: Suits and formal wear but also jewellery, cosmetics and childrenswear.
Labels include Paul Smith, Gucci, Prada, Chanel and Rolex while Vertu phones are a popular purchase. Although they trust established brands, they are also happy to buy across the price spectrum - hence Debenhams started putting signs up in Hausa, the language spoken by 45 million West Africans.
Their top time to shop: all year round - a consistent presence in our stores.
Average transaction in the West End: £1,648


Most of the Governor's children are in London, Former Governor Peter Odili is still in undergoing money laundry case after he was caught with over 60M Pounds in cash at the airport, former Bayelsa state governor (Alameisiga) has a pending case too, so no suprise Nigerians spend an average of 2k pounds on each transaction in London.

Armed Bandits Raid Bureau De Change

Armed robbers, Wednessday night, carted away US$600,000 (N95, 969, 998.17 million) from a Bureau De Change operator inside Murtala Muhamed International Airport Lagos.

A source at the airport told Vanguard that the robbers stormed the car park which is usually in darkness and shot sporadically into the air, wounding a woman, before dispossessing their victim of the said amount at about 8.30pm.

The incident, according to the operator who simply identified himself as Salisu took place without any intervention from the security agencies stationed at various locations at the airport.

Salisu said the robbers who arrived with sophisticated weapons traced a Dubai bound passenger that came to change his money into American dollars, adding that the operator ran into the robbers and was disposess of the foreign currency.

Former militant (Boyloaf) appointed Presidential envoy

The former militant now travels overseas inspecting training facilities on behalf of the Federal Government

For agreeing to drop his arms and join the amnesty programme of the Federal Government, Ebikabowei Victor Ben, aka Boyloaf, has become a Presidential envoy embarking on international inspection visits on behalf of the Federal Government.



As part of his visits, Boyloaf recently led a delegation to Rotterdam to inspect proposed venues for the training of former militants.



According to African Energy Intelligence, Boyloaf arrived in Rotterdam late January and has already visited Albelda College where government plans to train dozens of militants.



The training programme is part of the amnesty programme put in place by the Federal Government.



The programme, which began in 2009 under late President Umaru Yar’Adua allows for the training of former militants in the Niger Delta in various crafts relevant to the oil and gas industry.



The amnesty program is at present being coordinated by Kingsley Kuku, the special assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan on Niger Delta affairs.



It is unclear why Boyloaf, who has no known professional qualifications, is leading presidential delegations on such visits; but sources say this is not the first time Mr. Ebikabowei would embark on such trip.



As a leader of a federal government delegation, not only does Boyloaf get estacodes and first class hotel reservations, he is also entitled to aides who accompany him on such trips.



Mr. Kuku could not be reached for comments while Presidential spokesman, Reuben Abati, did not return calls or respond to text messages sent to his telephone.

When contacted, Henry Ugbolue, spokesperson for the amnesty office confirmed that many of the inspection trips were sponsored from the department, which is domiciled in the presidency.

"All the former militant leaders are stakeholders, they are entitled to these inspections," Mr. Ugbolue said.

When asked what qualification the militant leaders have to embark on such inspection visits, Mr. Ugbolue responded that "because they stakeholders, the boys are their boys."

He explained that the militant leaders were playing a major part in the training of militants and the success of the amnesty program saying "that is why from day one when government developed the template they involved the leaders and called them stakeholders."

It’s a militant world

Boyloaf is not the only militant making money from government activities. The militants’ influence within the corridors of power can be seen at the Transcorp Hilton hotel in Abuja where some of them have permanent suites to themselves. The hotel, used by top government fuctionaries, diplomats and (international) businessmen, is one of the most expensive in Nigeria.

acting IGP loses wife

The New acting Inspector general of police
Mohammed Dikko lost his wife on monday. She died after a brief illness and has been buried according to Muslim rites. May her soul Rest in Peace.

8 years old girl raped and killed by Father's friend.

father of the girl.

Our correspondent learnt that the girl’s younger brother, Obedient, was present in the house and he overheard Atagha asking her to go out with him so that he could buy her something.

The boy said he warned his sister not to go out since it was late.

When it was 9.30 pm, the girl’s family began to look for her. Francis said they were worried since she had never stayed out late at night and nobody in the house had sent her on errand.

Later, he asked Obedient whether he knew the whereabouts of the girl and was informed that Atagha had taken her out.

Francis said, “When we did not see her throughout the night, my friends, including my tenants and I went to Atagha’s house to ask him about my daughter’s whereabouts.

“He denied ever seeing the girl that day. He told us that we had come to incur his wrath for something he had no knowledge of. But when he noticed that we were very serious, he ran away and we did not see him for many days.

“When we took the matter to his family, he appeared and confessed that he did it and that we should not let any other person hear about the matter.”

Francis had quickly informed the police about the matter immediately and Atagha was arrested.

He said, “I only did my bit by informing the police about the alleged killer of my daughter. Because I am poor, many people seem to take advantage of my situation and treat me badly.

“I don’t know if the police will be able to avenge my daughter’s death. My daughter was easy-going, obedient and loving. I could not imagine how somebody – not even my own friend–could do this type of thing to me. The world is wicked. This is an abominable offence.”

Francis said that his daughter’s corpse was still lying in the bush where Atagha allegedly hacked her to death. Part of the body, especially the belly, had begun to decompose. But the face was still recognisable. He said the corpse was left there as evidence and that they would only bury the girl once the police gave them the go-ahead to do so.

One of the tenants and a close friend to Francis, who gave his name as Innocent, described the slain girl as too precious to lose. He said the victim could cook any type of food and when somebody sent her on errand, she would promptly go without any argument.

He said, “This is not the type of girl anybody can lose. Great injustice has been done to the little girl. We hope the government will intervene in this matter.”

The spokesman for the Akwa Ibom State Police Command, Mr. Onyekaozuru Orji, confirmed the incident and said the Police had arrested the alleged killer.

Orji said the the matter was under investigation and if it was established that Atagha actually raped and murdered the girl, he would be charged to court for manslaughter.

Supreme court moves to sack five sitting Governors

Baring any sudden last minute changes, in what appears to be a deft move targeting Bayelsa State Governor, Chief Timipre Sylva and his Sokoto State counterpart, Aliyu Wammako, THEWILL has gathered from multiple connected sources that the Supreme Court will in a couple of hours remove 5 State Governors from office when the 7-panel justices headed by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Dahiru Musdapher, delivers its ruling in the controversial tenure elongation suit filed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), seeking to quash the tenure elongation approved for the 5 governors by a Federal High Court and upheld by an appeal court.

The other governors are Alhaji Ibrahim Idris (Kogi State), Admiral Murtala Nyako (Adamawa State), and Senator Liyel Imoke (Cross River State). The five of them belong to the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The trio of Imoke, Nyako and Wammako have already secured their party’s ticket ahead of their State’s governorship elections scheduled to hold at different dates this year. Imoke and Nyako however enjoy a great deal of popularity in their states and have the backing of the PDP and the Presidency to return to office. The same cannot however be said for Wammako, who though has secured his party’s ticket, may still be blocked by the PDP and Presidency because he did not support the election of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Kogi State already has a governor-elect waiting to be sworn following a governorship election that was conducted in December, 2011.

The biggest loser of the lot is Timipre Sylva, who was disqualified from contesting in the Bayelsa State PDP primary; and would be arrested, detained and prosecuted on various charges ranging from corruption to treason, THEWILL was told by reliable sources. (He allegedly threatened to kill President Jonathan and his wife because they refused to support his re-election bid). The Governor has since fallen out with the President who was his predecessor in office. Sylva’s sin was that he frustrated efforts at the National Assembly to make then Vice President Goodluck Jonathan Acting President, during the long absence from office of late President Umaru Yar’Adua, due to an ailment that eventually led to his demise.

Sources conversant with the plan told THEWILL Thursday that the SSS operatives attached to Sylva have been directed to detain him as soon as his sack is announced.

Sylva is presently in court challenging the PDP’s decision to block him from seeking the party’s ticket.

There is however panic across the five states following the development, as the Governors have relocated to Abuja -- Nyako and Sylva have been in Abuja for over a week -- Sources close to the Governors told THEWILL that they are all aware that their terms would probably come to end in a couple of hours and have made contingency plans to manage the situation at their various states.

The Speakers of the State Assemblies in the states affected will assume office as acting governors if indeed the governors are removed by the court as expected, and INEC will have to conduct fresh polls within a stipulated period, usually 3-6 months.

Genevieve Nnaji And Osaze Odemwinge Seals N50m Endorsement Deal With South African Company

What a way to kick start the new year, for Super Eagles Prolific Striker Osaze Odemwinge, and Nollywood  star Actress Genevieve Nnaji, as they both sealed a N50m Ambassadorial deal respectively, from a brand South African company which produces Cintrion Energy drink.


The duo are arguably the most talked about personalities in their individual profession,  and because of the fame and quality of service they have given and amassed in recent times, the South African brand decided to award them the deal to remain influence to African Youths.


Congrats to you both!!!
May God continue to bless your hustle.

The Essence Of Exercise

If you want to reduce your body fat, focus on increasing the amount of exercise you get rather than decreasing your food intake. A recent national study was done using two groups of sedentary men, one group in their 20's and the other over age 65. A lot was learned from this accumulated data and it is interesting to note that there was a significant relationship between lack of physical activity and fat. Not surprisingly, the most sedentary men had the most body fat.

These studies have also indicated that the governments current recommended daily allowance for calories does not correlate with the body's actual energy needs. For example, although 2400 calories have been calculated for older men, they in fact burned an average of 2800 calories daily.

The leading experts now recommend that people who want to lose weight start increasing their physical activity. Just being more active in general (such as climbing the stairs instead of taking the elevator, moving around instead of sitting still, sitting up instead of lying down as well as showing some excitement and enthusiasm instead of boredom), are things that more effectively burns calories and reduces body fat. Everyone seems to have lost sight of the value of being active. Consider this, a half-hour aerobic workout accounts for far less energy expenditure than our minute-to-minute movement in the office or at home.

Millions of Americans are trying to lose weight, spending approximately $30 billion a year on diet programs and products, often they do lose some weight. But, if you check with the same people five years later, you will find that nearly all have regained whatever weight they lost. A national panel recently sought data to determine if any commercial diet program could prove long-term success. Not a single program could do so.Being seriously overweight and particularly obesity predisposes individuals to a number of diseases and serious health problems, and it's now a known fact that when caloric intake is excessive, some of the excess frequently is saturated fat.

People who diet without exercising often get fatter with time. Although your weight may initially drop while dieting, such weight loss consists mostly of water and muscle. When the weight returns, it comes back as fat. To avoid getting fatter over time, increase your metabolism by exercising regularly.

Walking is one of the best exercises for strengthening bones, controlling weight, toning the leg muscles, maintaining good posture and improving positive self-concept. To lose weight, it's more important to walk for time than speed. Walking at a moderate pace yields longer workouts with less soreness - leading to more miles and more fat worked off on a regular basis. High intensity walks on alternate days help condition one's system. But in a walking, weight-loss program, you are not requried to walk an hour every day as some people would have you believe.

Nigerian U.K student dies in London club

A young and promising Northampton University student, Nabila Nanfuka, was trampled to death as clubgoers stampeded for the doors to exit a nightclub on Tuesday night.

The event, Wickedest Skank, was organised by promoter DNA as a university coach rave and held at the Lava and Ignite nightclub in Northampton. Students from universities all over England, including Luton, Hertfordshire, Leicester, Kent, Coventry, Birmingham, Manchester and Northampton attended the sold out event.


Reports suggest that tensions began to rise at the end of the rave as clubgoers tried to leave the venue which had exceeded maximum capacity. Fights began to break out causing crowds to rush out of Lava and Ignite leading to a stampede.
MAY HER SOUL REST IN PEACE. AMEN !!

Faith , That's what we need !!

To have faith is to defy logic. It takes faith to think positively. It takes faith to believe that there is a loving God who cares deeply about our pain. To believe in life, the universe, or yourself after numerous failures is to have courage. Faith is an act of courage. It is choosing to get up in the morning and face our fears and believe that God will help us. Faith is choosing to believe that even though we may have failed one hundred times before that we can succeed the next time.

Happy New Year People !!

Really happy to be back after such a long time. Its a new year people, so we are expecting new things in much bigger ways and that I promise to deliver. Just keep watching this space. Have a Splendid new year filled with God's Love and protection.
