Why row about little things that prolongs your marriage?
3:45:06 PMAbiodun

IF you find yourself getting more and more irritated with your beloved, then common sense would suggest that it's best to hold your tongue. But in this case, at least, it appears common sense might be wrong. Because according to researchers, it's much better for your marriage to speak up rather than let your problems fester. Dr. Harnnah Fry, a mathematician at University College, London, reviewed scientific studies about relationships for her book; The Mathematics of Love. She claims that maths can help find answers to common love-life dilemmas. For example, according to her research, women who tend to approach men are more likely to get a husband or boyfriend who they get on with -compared to those who simply sit and wait to get asked out.

Issues and challenges of governance in Nigeria by Professor Akin L. Mabogunje
2:10:52 PMadekunle

Let me join in welcoming everyone to this august Lecture being given as part of the activities for launching the Endowment Fund for instituting the Oba Sikiru Adetona Professorial Chair in Governance in the Department of Political Science at the Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State. I confess that when I got a phone call from Kabiyesi some time in August last year, I was very curious to know what I have done to deserve such a call since more often than not it was I who usually call Kabiyesi on one issue or the other. I was even more curious as Kabiyesi spelt out the purpose of the call. This was to put me on notice that I should be prepared to deliver a public lecture on the occasion of the launching of the Endownment Fund for instituting a professorial Chair at Olabisi Onabanjo University in his honour. As a loyal subject of Kabiyesi, I did not think I had any option but to say "Yes, Sir". Later communication then indicated the topic of the lecture I was meant to deliver. This topic is: Issues and Challenges of Governance in Nigeria
