Pros and Cons of wearing high heels

High heels have been present in history since 1500′s when they were footwear for men. Gradually (just the way women do) we took over this trend from guys. Though it was used mainly by butchers to keep their feet away from blood on the ground, women turned this piece to a fashion statement (how awesome are we!)

Heels now come in various sizes and designs. Think of the most bizarre designs, i’m pretty sure there would be something out there like that. But despite the fact that this fashion statement has changed the lives of women around the world, it does have it’s faults.
A new study has shown that making poor decisions about footwear today can result in a high risk of foot problems in the future.

What to do in case of rape - From Project Alert

Recently, Project Alert, a non-governmental women's rights organization, has been getting calls from people all over Nigeria reporting rape and asking them what to do. The organization decided to write an article that can guide people on what they can do in case of rape. See the article below...

“My friend just got raped by her tutorial coach, what do we do?”

“I was raped by my neighbour, I told my mother but she refused to believe me. What do I do?”

“My daughter was raped so I shaved her hair and beat her up so that it won’t repeat itself and no rapist will be attracted to her”

These reports are just less than 1% of the cases we have to deal with everyday on issues concerning rape. From our experience we have realized that many people are still ignorant about what to do in a rape situation. People say there is a rape epidemic in Nigeria but the reality is that rape has always lived with us since time immemorial; we are only witnessing an increase in the reporting of rape cases.

(If you missed it, read the story HERE)

According to people close to Foluke, she and some family members have contacted their lawyer to sue Bukola for character assassination. Bukola will soon appear in court to prove that Foluke indeed used diabolical means to obtain Kayode Salako.

Bukola told an Encomium reporter this week that she's not bothered about a lawsuit and is waiting to get the petition from Foluke's lawyers. She said she still feels bad for introducing Foluke to Kayode because the introduction was for Foluke to get financial help from Kayode and not to take him from his wife. "I'm not bothered about a lawsuit though Kayode has sent a threat message to me that we would meet in court. I'm more bothered about Kayode's wife. I hope she forgives me" She said.
