Happy new year? You will ask.Well it is better late than never!
It is a new year,a new beginning and a time for new possibilities.
For the fact that my internet connection had been having problem for some time,and coupled with the festivity period,my birthday and Ist wedding anniversary in January,short pay in the implimentation of a new salary structure(CONTISS)which led to a drastic drop in my morale generally;I was not able to publish any post since Dec 4th,2007.
However,it is a new year,a new dawn and a time to shake away all lethargy,lukewarmness and break out like a new day.
There are a couple of activities that are likely to take place this year,both on a personal level for me and at the level of the stakeholders in the management of Mental health generally in Nigeria.As much as possible I will not relent in my effort to educate on mental health and advocate for mental health on this blog.One only hope that the efforts made by few individuals towards improving mental health awareness and to improve that overall level of mental health care can receive a boost by the appropriate authorities who should ochestrate a concerted effort to advance the cause.
Further more,one hopes that the mental health bill will be passed into law by the national assembly so that some of the old unpracticable laws will be changed into something more practicable and humane for the benefit of the mentally ill.
