A former speaker of the Imo state legislature and ex Imo state trade representative in US, Rt. Hon. Ike Ibe has unveiled a talk series to promote happiness, understanding and combat depression in the Nigerian people.
This was disclosed in a post on Sunday in Abuja.
The talk series is titled, ‘Balancing pains and gains in the pursuit of happiness’.
In the post, the legal practitioner stressed on the need to balance life’s situations and responsibilities, adding that there must be pains and gains in all aspects.
According to him, the death rate keeps increasing because people lack the ability to deal with depression, stress and trauma, insisting that there are numerous causes of the “sickness of the mind”.
“There are so many results of depression. It could even cost a life. It needs to be attended to and dealt with”. He lamented.
