Kidnapping business

Robisco, the owner of Robisco petroleum/ oil and gas station was kidnapped yesterday in front of his resident's gate.

Robisco is a wealthy young man, who returned from overseas to Nigeria few years back. A year after his return, he innovated his late father's petroleum station and branded it with the service name, Robisco gotten from his name Robert.

He began to do exceptional well in his petroleum business. It was magical to people till now, how his business keeps booming, that it flamed up conspicuously to its unexpected success. His sudden affluence, however attracted much attention. He has made so much investment in the city lately, including buying land properties, buildings. The latest investment he is on to is his extension of Robisco petroleum station which sprang up the envy of many.

He was about to enter into his resident last night, his attempt to open the gate, unknown men surrendered him and shot him up with guns, he remained silent as they dragged him into the car the came with, and drove off to a place which is still unknown to anybody till now. Sadly, his pregnant wife has been crying her eyes out since then.

Still holding him hostage, what are they up to against the captive? What next? though scaring but unfortunate and unpredictable situation.

Next is "Kidnapping, act of frustration"

They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity ...
