4 tips on when to leave a relationship
Love is a beautiful thing, it is really admirable to see two people who are obviously in love. Although, some love stories are not that admirable, they are riddled with infidelity, abuse and ill feelings.
Anyway, it is better to leave a relationship when love is no longer served on the table. Here are tips on knowing when to leave an unpromising relationship.
1. When you feel abused or unconcerned
If you constantly feel that you do not receive the due respect and concern, instead get abused; then it is advised to leave the relationship and stay away from the person. The prime goal of entering into relationship is to be more jovial and satisfied. Each of the partners should care for the other and try to maximize the comforts each other in a relationship. Emotional or physical abuses are to be resisted in a relationship and one has to leave immediately if the partner goes on engaging in abusive behavior pattern. Modern relationships do not bind any person to suffer lifelong with a person incompatible.
2. When the love meter dips down
Romance is the sum of all the struggles and tensions undergone in relationships. People get into relationships to enjoy the romantic presence of the partner and accomplish the human tendency of loving and being loved. If one of the partners doesn’t understand the importance of affection in relationship, it cannot go further in effective manner. You need not compromise your life for a partner who is less affectionate or rude to you. Lack of romance is the obvious sign of lack of interest. When the love meter dips down perpetually, then one has to understand it as the right time to go away from the partner.
3. When the trust is broken
Trust is a very delicate and must to have string that binds the partners in a relationship together. As soon as you realize broken trust in a relationship, without hesitation, leave the relationship. Mutual trust is essential in every relationship and both the partners need to adhere to the commitment. Trust is the way of expressing the love, concern and importance one feels for the other person. If any one of the partners doesn’t care for maintaining the trust in relationship, then it is always better to hold back from the relationship.
4. If you feel depressed or unhappy all the time
When the relationship infuses into a sad feeling always, then the relationship is not beneficial for you. Thirst for happiness is said to be the driving force behind every action in human life; so is relationships. When the relationship offers you depression, rather joviality and peaceful life, then going ahead with the relationship is not meaningful; leave it aside as soon as possible. Analyze if the said depression is the result of your own mentality or caused by the instances in the relationship. If it is ignited by the relationship issues, then the relationship is, of course, destructive for you and deprive of it at the very first instance.

DRAMA AS AYADE’S THUG WEEPS AT STAKEHOLDERS MEETING

By Joseph ETTA in Calabar
It was high drama when one of the foot soldier and thugs of Cross Rivers governor Ben Ayade, in the last election, Ekpang Ogar, wept publicly, before the governor at a stakeholders meeting in the state.
Oga was lamenting the total neglect by Ben Ayade, whom he claimed to have helped to have won overwhelming in six wards in Ogoja Local Government area during the last Governorship Election.
Ogar, narrated how his wife who was pregnant, had a still birth because of the rigors and pressure they went through to deliver his wards to the governor during the Election.
He accused the Governor of total insensitivity and indifferent towards his and others plight after winning the election.
The Governor who was visiting the Council Area since he won reelection for the first time for a stakeholders meeting, however assured him that help was on the way
“please don’t weep again, I did not know, now that I know, I will do something about it” he said.
Ogar who was the first Electoral Chairman of the Ogoja area council also lamented over the collapsed of the Bridge linking his village to Ogoja town which has become unmotorable.
“The people are suffering, they are in total hardship as they cannot bring their farm products to the market”
He noted that the only road linking Yale to Ogoja and Obudu was very deplorable,
“the road is so bad that it has become a death trap. Every week people die on the road, yet the people of Yale and Ogoja gave the Governor the highest vote. The people voted massively for Ben Ayade”. He noted.
Meanwhile, the stakeholders meeting which was supposed to run throughout the month of October was suspended indefinitely on Wednesday, because the Governor, the convener of the meeting was as usual out of town when the meeting reconvened. It would have been the turn of the central district which include Boki, Ikom, Etung, Obubra, Abi and Yakurr.

3 Attributes that make women go crazy in love
Treating a woman right by showering her with love, attention and respecting her will make her place you in a special place in her heart. She is very much likely to love you immensely.
But being all sweet to her is not enough to make her mad over you. Here are qualities that make every woman go gaga and helplessly in love:
1. Confidence
Nothing looks as sexy on a man as confidence. An undeniable swagger and an aura proceeds from you and commands respect and admiration.
There is a thin line between this and pomposity and only a very few know how to sublimely maneuver that line.
The moment you are able to perfect this and you become able to converse, carry yourself and relate in this manner, best believe it, women would be stuck to you like steel to a magnet.
2. Loyalty
Everyone knows how hard it is to locate loyalty these days, especially in men and for this reason, if you can project a charisma and back it up with loyalty and unfaithfulness to stick with her exclusively, she’ll be locked down with you, man, best believe that.
Women are more trusting, often willing to love with the whole of what they’ve got and loyalty is one of the things that assures them that they are not mistaken in giving you the whole of themselves.
Once they can ascertain that, the likelihood that they’ll leave is pretty low.
3. Super sex
Some might want to argue with the validity of this, but it is every bit solid as the other two points above.
If amazing, spine-tingling sex is added to your confidence and loyalty, the formula becomes complete and she’ll be addicted to you like crack.
While some might argue that wealth might be a better substitute for one of these three points, all you need do is look around you and see the number of people who aren’t rich but are stuck together in real love.
That tells you that wealth or lack of it does not really weigh on the hearts of women when they’re truly, really falling in love.

3 Attributes of a drama queen
A drama queen is someone [the term is usually used for women] who reacts to situations and circumstances in excessive, melodramatic ways.
We all have our preferences and things we can live with even in relationships. Now the question is can you live with a drama queen?
However, we all want some peace and calm in our relationships and having to deal with a drama queen can take a toll on one’s well-being.
So, if you are ready to get into a relationship and don’t want to end up with a drama queen, here are signs you should look out for:
1. They overreact
Obviously the biggest thing about a babe who is dramatic. Issues get blown out of proportion and issues that can be sorted out in better ways do not get trashed out until she has had a session of being overly emotional.
Whether you piss her off by saying something you shouldn’t have said, or by arriving late by few minutes to a date, you can bet that her default setting is to overreact.
And you don’t need this kind of energy, do you?
2. 100% attention
Drama queens are also very likely to be overly demanding of attention and time. They’ll throw tantrums if they are not on your Whatsapp status updates, on your IG feed and stories and pretty much every known way of demanding attention, even unnecessarily.
But what most people in healthy relationships have is a balance that comes from the knowledge that their partner is theirs and the fact that he has to deal with other things like his work and other responsibilities doesn’t change that.
3. Immature
This is pretty much obvious from the title ‘drama queen.’ There is a childishness to the whole of their disposition and the way they deal with situations. A drama queen lacks emotional intelligence most of the time and always wants things to go her way, failure of which leads to tantrums.
What you need however, is someone whose mental growth matches their physical development to the point where the know how to address issues with appropriate energy.

As the users will be addicted to your app they would want to pay you the subscription charges for further usage.
For this to be successful it must offer unique features, where no other app can give if not so customers may find some other alternative free version to replace it.

Lagos Govt to complete abandoned 70m-gallon Adiyan Water Project in 18 months
By Our Reporter
The Lagos State Government has announced its resolve to complete within 18 months the 70 million-gallon Adiyan Water Project which was abandoned by previous administration.
Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu said on Thursday during an inspection of the water works that the contractor handling the project, located in the north-western part of the state, had been mobilized back to site.
He said the project, which was awarded in 2013 by the Babatunde Fashola administration, would be completed within 18 months.
It would be recalled that the Adiyan II waterworks project was initiated by Fashola’s administration to provide safe drinking water to more than five million Lagos residents.
The project had reached about 70 per cent completion when it was abandoned.
Sanwo-Olu said that his administration decided to complete the water project because of its strategic importance to the well-being of the people.
The governor, who described the project as the `biggest of its kind’ in Nigeria, said it would raise the state’s potable water supply capacity.
“With this project, we will be raising the capacity of our potable water supply, the capacity is more than 70 million gallons.
“The commitment on the side of government is to ensure prudence, as well as speedy and quality completion,” he said.
Sanwo-Olu further said that the contractor had assured that the project would be delivered within 18 months.
“As a government, we will work with the contractor and the project consultant to deliver this project within the agreed time frame.
“Completing this project means that we have achieved one of the key items of the Sustainable Development Goals, which is also a strategic pillar of our development agenda.
“Provision of safe drinking water to no fewer than five million citizens of Lagos is part of our government’s development agenda,” he said.
Sanwo-Olu also said the state government would soon award contract for the commencement of the second and third phases of the water project.
He said that the second and third phases were reticulation works and construction of eight-kilometre water intake conduits from Akute to Adiyan.
Sanwo-Olu said that issues such as compensations and rights of way would be addressed to allow the contractor finish the project on record time.
“Parts of the construction work were suspended because of issues of rights of way with the residents and Ogun State, we are also going to handle all these.
“We will pay all the compensations to ensure that they can lay the pipes,” he said.
Sanwo-Olu also inspected the Lagos State Water Corporation infrastructure in Iju-Akute axis.
The governor used the visit to assess the possibility of rejigging operations and enhancing the productivity of the state-owned water facilities.
Sanwo-Olu, who expressed worry over the state of the facilities, said the government would seek private sector funding to revamp the infrastructure.
‘“We need to raise money, get new investment to improve the output of these important facilities.
”On the power plant, we also need to scale up and get another one ready for Adiyan II water works, which will be ready in 18 months.
“So it’s a total eco-chain we are looking at: We have to start the planning from now to ensure that the new water works will have electricity to make it function effectively,” he said.
