SEXUALLY PREYED By: Africax5

I want to bring awareness about sexual predators and our girls! This is a forbidden subject in the black community because maybe it happened to you or maybe it is going on right now in your house! It doesn’t matter who don’t like my post because if this post saves one then it served its purpose.

If a child informs you someone has touched them act on it! Most people are taught not to talk about it, well those days are over! Let talk about things that are inappropriate! When I was a kid sexual predators were our neighbours or family members.

But our kids today face online predators who are comfortable driving across states just to entice your child! They are facing and dealing with things we didn’t! Let these number stay with you! 1 out of 4 girls is molested or sexually preyed on.

That means take four girls and one of them has been assaulted. We have to stand up for our girls! If you know someone that is a predator speak!!!!!!!!! They generally hurt several before anyone knows! Your voice can save your knowledge can save and more than ever your involvement can change the statistics against your child or somebody else’s child!

THE GCE GIRL By: OLUSEGUN AKINSANYA

Every year we welcome into our community several teenagers between 13 and 17 from far and near. They are both male and female. They have the same mission. They have come to write General Certificate Examination (G.C.E). Most of them are penultimate students in secondary schools. These little fellows have been fixed at centres nearby to write their exams and the people that brought them have accommodation as part of the payment agreement. Some of these children are leaving home for the first time. Some of them look like mom's pets. Immediately they hit the town, you see a lot of ambiance and noise, something like a carnival. They make noise in the morning while looking for water for domestic use and in the evening when they are back from their different centres. It's always a new experience for most of them, and they seem to enjoy it: yea, they seem to enjoy being away from home for a whole month, a kind of escape from the eagle eyes of their parents; they seem to enjoy a t...
