How polite are you to service providers?

Hello Friends, How's been your day and your week? For so many of us we already know that popular cliche that says the 'Customer is King'. So when we go to ask for goods and services, we expect top notch attention to our demands. But has it ever occurred to us that our service providers also need some respect from us? This is our focus today.  Every year, millions of dollars are spent by organizations and individuals alike in  training programs just to acquire excellent and efficient customer service skills that can help them serve their clients better and optimally and honestly, giant strides have been made in that respect. Our focus now is on the flip side of the coin where the customer now relates with the service provider. Generally speaking because of the level of attention and possibly hype given to the customers many unfortunately have taken to abusing that privilege. In many societies, especially one like ours (Nigeria) we have noticed a ri

How 'problem-solving' is your Education?

Education according to Wikipedia is the process of facilitating learning or acquisition of knowledge, skills, values,  beliefs and habits. The system or process of education as we know is as old as man himself. The word education comes basically from two variants in the Latin word 'educare' and 'educere.' Educare means to 'bring up' and educere means to 'bring forth'. These two root words give us a clear picture of what education is meant to be done with.

Here especially in our 'obodo' Nigeria, we have seen how due to the falling and fallen standard of education, that most schooled persons do not really know what to do with the knowledge at their disposal.

Why you can't digest Milk Products well.

Lactose is defined as the type of sugar found in milk and diary products. Lactose Intolerance on the other hand as the name implies is a condition in which your digestive system fails to breakdown or digest and absorb this type of sugar into your body system. What could be the cause? From elementary integrated science we were told that the body produces some chemicals called 'enzymes' in the digestive tract that aid the breakdown of large molecules of the foods we eat into digestible and absorbable forms so the body can make use of it.  So lactose intolerance then means the inability of the body to digest and absorb milk and diary products due to a deficiency in an enzyme known as 'Lactase' which is saddled with the responsibility of breaking down the Lactose sugar. In some people it develops at adult stages in life (which is more common) but for some it is congenital meaning they were born with that (condition). And sadly babies born with such con
