It is unfair and unkind to frustrate an ongoing investigation for your own gain. It is a crime that can put you in prison. Do not do it!

Even if your fists are not involved, words can cause irreparable wounds. Hurtful words can aggravate mental illness, cause low productivity, suicidal thoughts and suicide. Your words are powerful.

If you have to threaten a person with injury for them to help you, they are not your helper and you're committing a crime.

We recognize that cultural practices are a deep part of us, rooted in our beliefs. However, we must all retain the right to change our minds when what we believe causes more harm than good. Think about it, stop.

MONDAY EVENING REFLECTION – Each time you tell a lie, you corrupt your humanity.
1. Man is not made to tell lies.
2. This is why lies trouble the mind of liars even if they pretend about it.
3. The more lie people tell, the more their humanity weakens, and tends to become beastly.
4. If you observe carefully, you’ll notice that every notorious person – a thief, a robber, a rapist, an election rigger, an unfaithful partner, a slanderer, etc., hardened through telling lies.
5. The reverse is the case for people that want to turn new leaf in whatever bad ways they have been living; they must start by being truthful to themselves, and then to others, and little by little, they get renewed from their beastly nature, back to human nature.
6. Liars are self-made fools because they fail to realise that no matter the how long they have embraced lies, at the end of their lives, the same lies will reject and accuse them.
7. Each time you tell a lie, you corrupt your humanity.
8. Stop telling lies, even if everyone else does so. Try to remain completely human as you were made - without lies!
9. Have a blessed evening.
10. #AllEyesOnTheJudiciary
Nothing is enough to justify injuring a fellow human.
