KCB Readers (6 Ways To Deal With Stress In Your Relationship)


We can all agree that Nigeria is a very stressful country; especially the busy metropolitan states like Lagos, Abuja, Port-harcourt, Calabar etc. You have to deal with waking up as early as 4-5 in the morning in order to beat traffic and avoid getting to work late. If you don’t have a car, you will have to be concerned about getting a bus (for those in lag) without getting your clothes dirtied or ruined by the hustle. Then you get to work and it’s almost as if all the work in the office is on your desk. You have to eat biscuits and take a drink for lunch because you can’t afford to go out for lunch break and miss your deadline (traffic). After working over time, you have to still struggle with the bus and traffic. You get home very late and you are very tired, grumpy and hungry; all you want to do is just eat and go to bed. Shower is not even on your mind, much less loving up with boo. You want to be the greatest partner ever but the city you live in won’t permit you. It takes grace to go through work and traffic stress and still come home smiling and ready to bubble.

KCB Readers (Reasons Why Your Best Employees Keep Leaving)


How does your business compare to others when it comes to employee retention? Generally speaking, the numbers paint a rather bleak picture. A worldwide investigation revealed that one in five employees are emotionally turned off from the business that they work in. They don’t feel engaged, and they don’t feel connected.

But what effect does this have on a business? Statistics show that this kind of disengagement leads to slower development and growth. In the long term, this translates into less profitability for the business.

It is clear that employee retention is something that businesses need to take seriously. So, how do you engage your employees? How do you create a feeling of connection between employees themselves, between employees and managers, and between employees and the business?

Sex with more than 20 women helps reduces prostate cancer – Research study

A new research claims that a man who has had sex with more than 20 women in his lifetime is less likely to have prostate cancer. Is this kind of study that causes men to be d**king around *hiss* lol

From SMH.com:
“Men who have sex with more than 20 women during the course of their lifetimes are less likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer, new research shows.

But for homosexuals who have had sex with at least 20 men and virgins, the risk of being diagnosed is doubled, the researchers from the University of Montreal have found.

Compared with men who have had just one sexual partner, men who have slept with 20 or more women have a 28 per cent lower risk of being diagnosed, and are 19 per cent less likely to develop the most aggressive form of prostate cancer.

Love Story Of A Unilag Babe And A Bus Conductor (MUST READ)

Something interesting happened on my way to Oshodi this morning. At the park this rough mean-looking conductor also known as “agbero” in Yoruba was screaming for passengers, his vernacular oscillating between Yoruba and pidgin English.

“Oshod! Oshod!” He shouted angrily as I along with some other passengers scuttled for seats. There was this beautiful young lady who couldn’t throw caution and decorum to the wind but waited patiently until the bus was almost filled. Then she pleaded to sit by the agbero until somebody came down then she would pay for a proper seat.

The agbero didn’t even look at her pretty face, he hissed and shouted to the driver to move that why didn’t she rush when others were rushing. The girl started pleading in Yoruba and clean ‘oyinbo’ english; “please, ejó, help me out sir, I know you are a good man, never mind all this shout you have been shouting (people burst into laughter). Let me sit by your side please”.
