http://ift.tt/eA8V8J DearBunmi, I am 18 and attend private tuition towards my school leaving examinations. My teacher is almost 40, and apart from me, two other students attend classes in his house thrice a week. He lives with his wife and three children. We talk after class after the two others have left and he assures me of his love. He says he no longer loves his wife. I don’t blame him because she looks a bit frumpy. It breaks my heart that I can’t be with him as often as I like. I love him so much and I know he loves me because he waited six months before we had sex. He wanted to be sure that I really loved him and to show that he wasn’t with me just for sex. We’ve begun to argue a lot because we both want what we can’t have. He says he can’t leave his wife yet because his kids are so young and it wouldn’t be fair. I don’t know what to do any more. Zainab, by e-mail. Dear Zainab, Never threaten the happiness of a family by having sex with an unfaithful husband. This heartl...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J FACTORING services can bridge the gap in the financing of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Africa by addressing the challenges SMEs face in accessing funding for business activities. Ms. Kanayo Awani, Managing Director of Intra-African Trade Initiative of African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank), stated this at a two-day factoring promotion seminar organised by the bank in Douala, Cameroon. She said that the effectiveness and potential of factoring services to support SMEs became even higher during periods of financial distress and that, because of its unique features, factoring was well-suited for facilitating financial inclusion of SMEs. Factoring is a financial transaction and a type of debtor finance in which a business sells its accounts receivable (i.e., invoices) to a third party (called a factor) at a discount. A business will sometimes factor its receivable assets to meet its present and immediate cash needs. Awani asserted that Afrexi...
