"Great job. Find women who can mentor her and in whom she can confide but be her closest confidante. She should feel safe to tell you every single thing. Blessings to you both."

Nigerian soldier helped kids

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian soldier, Lt Col AA Adekuoroye, gave much joy to some children as he aided them in school. He once served in Sambisa.

A message exclusively obtained by Legit.ng revealed that the colonel was deployed to Adamawa state to combat terrorism.

Aside from selflessly serving the country, the man built chairs and tables for the students of Foundation Nursery and Primary School in Kuzum, Bazza Town, Michika.
