1. What should a woman do if she finds herself alone in the company of a strange male as she prepares to enter a lift in a high-rise apartment late at night?
*Experts Say: Enter the lift. If you need to reach the 13th floor, press all the buttons up to
your destination. No one will dare attack you in a lift that stops on every floor.
2. What to do if a stranger tries to attack you when you are alone in your house, run into the kitchen.
*Experts Say: You alone know where the chili powder & turmeric are kept. And where the knives and plates are. All these can be turned into deadly weapons.
3. Taking an Auto or Taxi at Night.
*Experts Say: Before getting into an auto at night, note down it’s registration number. Then use the mobile to call your family or friend and pass on the details to them in the language the driver understands.
Even if no one answers your call, pretend you are in a conversation. The driver now knows someone has his details and he will be in serious trouble if anything goes wrong. A potential attacker is now your de facto protector!
PERIDOT.
Hmmm!!!!!! Luv the running into kitchen stuff, even blindfolded I can pick out my knife frm its position.
Thanks for telling us dis, @ leaste we all no wat do now in all d dose situations
Dat no.2 e get as e be bcos d attacker can use d same weapon against me. Anyways let us all pray 4 God's protection from things like dis.
Aunty Eya pls post my mail. I really need advice. I sent yesterday, my friend sent her's very early this morning. We need advice pls pls.
Lol….always remember to pray too when u find urself in any dangerous situation
Yeah, I agree with you Alex. In as much as we need all these kinds of training, we shud always pray and listen to the Holy Spirit. He is an extraordinary strategist. He will tell you when exactly to or not to leave that house or take that elevator or enter that cab.
Also we need to learn how to remain calm under pressure or in danger. KEEP CALM, PRAY and STRATEGIZE. Many people have entered into more danger and even lost their lives because they panicked. Fear can be really destabilizing. I heard of a woman whose house was burning and all she could think of picking were spoons and plates.
When using a weapon, striking blindly because of fear can be counter-productive. You have to take some seconds and really aim your weapon on an attacker. Or else, you might end up spraying your pepper spray on your own face because you couldn't calm down and aim.
All these look good in print. In real life, omo mehn….na fight to finish! Shouting, screaming, biting, scratching, bitch-slapping, konking, kicking, pulling and even begging or trying to appeal to attacker's humanity is what most people esp ladies would do. Keep calm ko…. Lolz…
As we usually say "Na God get power". That elevator own makes some sense oh. The person that wrote this article has clearly watched so many Hollywood thrillers. Thank God for His mercies sha. Na God dey save person cos like Yucee said, what if the person follows you to the kitchen and uses the same weapon against you? God abeg o.
Dat konking got me laffing…..
These points are good. Let us also remember to always commit our ways into His hands. Nobody wishes to b found in any of these situation but if it happens, then just call on Him to help u.
Once I had an armed robbery attack, the first confusion I had was a rumbling stomach(them get lock say I no shit for body) but I was very confused.After beating us all and locking us in one toilet they left after which I did 'my thing' Those boys were wicked they actually hit me, beat my dad n hit my sister on the head with a gun. I thank God so much for that day.
Be calm n strategize if u have the opportunity.
@Ahdaisy: As in ehn, one could read a lot of all these articles, but when the koko lands, your head no go dey ground at all. Lol. It's just God.
only God protects n heaven helps who help themselves
If u give drivers identity u might be killed especially if u were pretending to be talking to someone.

yea my dad told me about the taxi trick because he does that whenever he travels.. right in front of the cab driver he calls close to 5 people and describes the car, the car plate number, the guy's physique and he's name lol. very extra man BUT very conscious about his environment! BE SAFE GUYS
Lolz…… That's true JAY,but then d advice is till okay for those who will remember ooo May God protect us all
Yes o @Bekees: it's very okay. God works in several ways. This may just be one of them and He could just give the person the calmness so as not to panic and also, the wisdom to use this knowledge towards ones good. All knowledge is useful at the end of the day. If not for you, someone you may know.
My dears… Na so e be o… You never can tell what you will do in the real situation but no information is too much in this case and with God on our side, we'll all be fine…
The central theme of the Bible is God's love for you and all people. This love was revealed when Jesus Christ, the son of God, came into the world as a human being, lived a sinless life, died on the cross, and rose from the dead. Because Christ died, your sins can be forgiven, and because He conquered death you can have eternal life,(Romans 5:8) .The 'Gospel' is the good news that because of what Christ has done, we can be forgiven and live eternally. But this gift of forgiveness and eternal life cannot be yours unless you willingly accept it. Why don't you give your life to Christ now. Tomorrow may be TOO LATE! He is waiting with outstretched arms and a welcoming embrace for you. God Bless You!
