Again, it may not be needful to employ unreasoned criticism against a government saddled with serious political, economic, and security challenges threatening to completely destabilize the entire country. We may actually need to refocus on the issues that are making our collective destiny as a nation almost questionable. I believe some key and strategic positions are being manned by women and I also want to believe that better times are coming in this regard.

What if your best friend/ex-husband/daughter's new partner is a joy vacuum? What if they actually got married and this person who makes you hallucinate with irritation becomes part of your personal life, and you are required to invite them to every important moment in your life, and there they are, sitting at the corner like an obnoxious toad making it all about them?
