The paper continues, "To this end, many children born by the inmates are largely unclaimed". Vanguard discovered the horror during its visit to the nation's No 1 prison at Apapa, the Kirikiri Maximum Prisons in Lagos State. mysmallvoice@yahoo.com (Hakeem Babalola) Wed, 19 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1715/1/The-Brother-Jeros/Page1.html I certainly do no think we are unaware of the invasion of wolves among the sheep. Of course, the shepherd is to blame for accepting the repentance of wolves without removing their corrupt claws. Or who blames a lunatic king for beheading the chief priest? This is just it; the chief priest had consulted the all seen god ‘Ifa’ before casting the village choice of king on Adegbolu, a chronic mad man who had just been healed by the gods! This is what brother Jeros are! They are healed by the gods, yet madness runs in their veins. maymat20032003@yahoo.ca (Olayinka Olalekan) Wed, 19 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1714/1/EXPLORING-STOIC-PHILOSOPHY-IN-PSYCHOTHERAPY/Page1.html This essay looks at the role of stocism and epicuranism in psychotherapy. It says that in a world that appears meaningless the Roman philosophies of stoicism and  epicurealism seem appropraite. africainstitute@yahoo.com (Ozodi Thomas Osuji Ph.D) Tue, 18 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1713/1/That-Obasanjos-Sermon-on-Obamas-Election/Page1.html Our former President needs to know that the election in America is clearly as it is indisputably free and fair in every sense that John McCain had to immediately concede defeat and congratulate Obama in a genuine and sincere tribute… We can not deny Obasanjo’s sense of humour, intellect and charisma, when we recall the way he mesmerized the international community and bulldozzed his way to plum positions even in group pictures with world leaders. yashuaib@yahoo.com (Yushau Shuaib) Sun, 16 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1712/1/Obama-Said-Yes-We-CanI-Ask-Can-Nigerians/Page1.html After Obama made history on the 3rd of November 2008, I sent out a text message to friends stating that I had changed my name to Prince Barack Charles Obama and that all former documents remain valid. This was just a tip of the excitement that was mixed with tears. As the process was going on I made very limited comments or analysis because I am not an expert on American politics like a friend from Benue stated pcdbooks@yahoo.com (Prince Charles Dickson) Sun, 16 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1711/1/WHAT-IS-THE-REAL-SELF/Page1.html This essay tries to understand the real us as opposed to our apparent selves, our human personalities. It says that our real selves are spirit.It offered an unothodox explanation of the nature of spirit. africainstitute@yahoo.com (Ozodi Thomas Osuji Ph.D) Sun, 16 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1710/1/THE-LAW-OF-ATTRACTION/Page1.html This essay explains the metaphysical concept of law of attraction; it says that the world is a shared, collective dream and each of us plays a part in it.  Each person attracts those willing to play parts in his dreams to him and they attract him to their dramas. No one individual is in charge of the world, we are collectively in charge of the world. This means that the individual cannot change other people and the world; he can only change himself and show other persons how to change themselves and leave them to do so when they want to. africainstitute@yahoo.com (Ozodi Thomas Osuji Ph.D) Sat, 15 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1709/1/DEPRESSION-PARANOIA-AND-EXISTENTIAL-MENTAL-HEALTH/Page1.html This essay explores the putative origin of depression from the perspective of existentialism; it suggests that the cure for those mental disorders lie in accepting the human reality as it is and working for our common  social good. africainstitute@yahoo.com (Ozodi Thomas Osuji Ph.D) Fri, 14 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.chatafrikarticles.com/articles/1706/1/AN-ITSHEKIRI-MAN-IN-ASO-ROCK-NIGERIA-THE-GIANT-OF-AFRICA/Page1.html The Centre Stage taken by the United States of America as the leading leader in making the entire world a global village could not been questioned as dictated by the just concluded Presidential election with a landmark election of Barack Obama as the 44th United States President. The issue of race, ethnicity or religion have been discarded by majority of Americans saying that qualification for any position is the New World Order. sobef650@aol.com (Femi Ajayi Ph.D) Thu, 13 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0700
