The recent reports of 150 female inmates in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) being raped and burned to death are not just a tragedy – they are grotesque manifestations of the global pandemic of misogyny.   This act of unspeakable violence is not an anomaly. It is the logical endpoint of a world that

The US can’t even

Calling money “pieces of paper” has stripped money of

2023 ELECTIONS: ARE WOMEN ‘TOO’ EMOTIONAL TO RULE NIGERIA?   I will answer this question from the psychological perspective, social perspective and the scientific perspective in a random order blended together to give off a sweet savour or a malodorous stench that will almost choke you to death depending on whether you discriminate on the
