A mother who love her child will always protect her in any ways. It is so unfortunate that many mothers nowadays lead their children astray due to lack of ignorance. Sometimes, when I see ladies who are into prostitution and young girls with unwanted pregnancy, I begin to think that do they really have a mother. Many of them actually have a mother but their mothers have failed to teach them what they need to learn at their early age.

Mothers are really trying in terms of child upbringing, starting from 9 months pregnancy, to child birth, to breast feeding and so on. As a mother, do you want to reap the fruit of your labour? Your attitude towards your child especially the female ones will answer that question. Children are like a clay in the hand of a potter, the potter will mold the clay in the form he wants it to be and that's exactly how a child is in the hands of a mother.

Without wasting much of out time, let's quickly look at the things a mother need to tell her female child (daughter) while growing up. A good mother will always tell her daughter these things every time as if it's an anthem.

Nowadays, I know that many people want to feel among by wearing clothes that are in vogue. Some mothers also encourage their children by buying indecent dresses for them thinking its fashion. Let me tell you this, it is what you are doing for your child that she will continue to do when she grows up.

Let me use this opportunity to correct this, indecent dressing don't make you more beautiful, rather it attract you to men whose aim is to flirt with you. Learn to tell you daughter that wearing a decent dress makes her more beautiful but wearing an indecent dress makes her to look like a whore.

Many mother have failed in this aspect and this has result to underage females getting pregnant. You are not even a mother if you do not enlighten your daughter about relationship stuff, how she will always go about it. Don't be a mother that is always harsh to your daughter anytime you see her with a man, rather call her and speak to her privately on the advantages and disadvantages of being in a relationship.

She will decide on her own if truly she needed to be in a relationship or not. Don't always assume that her teacher will have already taught them all these in school, make sure you turn it to a daily anthem. Your ignorance should not make your child go astray.

Don't be a mother who scare your child while cautioning her. Once a child have reach his/her puberty stage, he/she will always have the urge to have s3x because it is a normal thing. The work is now left to you as a mother to enlighten her about the dangers of having s3x. Let her know that unwanted pregnancy can destroy all her future plans and tell her to always stay away from men whose intention is to sleep with her.

Don't let her feel shy or afraid anytime she want to ask questions about this. Create a free mother to child relationship with you daughter so that anytime she have a problem, she can always count on you.

No matter where your child might be, tell her that she should not walk outside in the night no matter what. I believed we can her news about how men are forcefully raping ladies and I believed that this can only happen in the night, not in the day. Let's forget about rape and let's look at the insecurity in this country.

Even a person who is peacefully sitting in his house is being kidnapped not to talk of the one who is walking alone in the night. If your child is far away, always call her and remind her about this, let her her know that she shouldn't be outside at night even when she is with her friends.

Yes, education is the only key to success. Mothers are advice to tell their children to take education serious especially the female ones. Many people might have discouraged your daughter by saying that no matter the level of education of a woman, she will finally end up in the kitchen. No, that's a big lie, we have seen successful women in our nation and in the world. A good examples are Funmilayo Ransome Kuti, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, and many others.

Mothers, don't be discouraged. Both males and females are entitled to western education. Don't say that since she is eventually getting married, she doesn't need to go to school. Train you child to become the leader of tomorrow not to become a slave to the leader.

The Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, has told the Federal Government to stop playing the Ostrich regarding the state of the country’s economy.

The governor disclosed this in a statement on his Twitter account on Thursday.

Obaseki was reacting to Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, who said his claim on the printing of N60 billion was wrong.

Recall that Ahmed had told State House correspondents on Wednesday that the claim by Obaseki was incorrect.

According to her, the money shared among the three tiers of government was not printed.

However, reacting to the government’s claim, Obaseki said he wouldn’t join issues with Ahmed over the issue, urging the Federal Government to take urgent steps to end the current monetary ‘rascality’ so as to prevent the prevailing economic challenges in the country.

“The Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, @ZShamsuna should rally Nigerians to stem the obvious fiscal slide facing our country, ”Obaseki wrote.

“Rather than play the Ostrich, we urge the government to take urgent steps to end the current monetary rascality so as to prevent the prevailing economic challenge from degenerating further.

“We believe it is imperative to approach the Nigerian project with all sense of responsibility and commitment and not play to the gallery because ultimately time shall be the judge of us all.”
