My boss is the problem
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I AM in love with a young man in my office. He is a very kind and gentle man every woman will dream of.
He is 35 and I am 25 years of age. I am currently pursing my Masters at the Accra Technical University in Fashion Design and Textiles.
As a matter of fact, he assists me in my project works, assignment and always ready to help me in times of difficulty.
Interestingly, he has also shown interest in me and we are planning to get married next year.
My problem is that anytime my boss sees him around me, he gets angry and gives him attitude and shouts at him to go to his office.
My fiancée wants to resign because it is making him uncomfortable in the office and this is affecting his attitude towards work.
He is accusing me of having a relationship with the boss. I am disturbed, what should I do?
Baaba,

Dear Baaba,
It is natural in such a case for your fiancé to suspect your boss might be after you.
Your boss’s attitude to your fiancé is too harsh. He should take it easy with him, especially when he is assisting you with work.
I have a feeling that your boss has an interest in you so seeing your fiancé around you makes him uncomfortable.
However, you can also have a talk with your boss to find out the reason for his behaviour towards your guy.

I want a sponsor
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am 25 years of age. I am a degree holder and wants to further my education with my Masters.
But unfortunately, I lost my father and I don’t have any one to help me financially to do my masters.
I am seeking for sponsors to help me but I do not know any such sponsor. I am, therefore, appealing to you through this letter for assistance.
Paddy, Ada.
Dear Paddy,
It is quite impossible finding such ‘sponsorships’ at random unless you have family members who want to assist.
Try as much as possible to search for a job because we are in hard times and I wonder what type of sponsorship you are looking for.
You can save after you have been paid. After working for a while, you can take a loan to further your education and arrange for suitable class.
You can start a lucrative business online just as other ladies are selling clothes, shoes, bags etc to earn a living.
Even if someone will assist you, you need to make efforts yourself.

She has set spies on me
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am a Christian brother of one of the churches in Accra. I am 28 and she is 22 and an apprentice in a salon.
Both of us attend the same church and we have finally decided to tie the knot.
She is been catered for by her two brothers who considers her to be too young for marriage.
Both brothers asked me to stay away from their sister because she is still young and has a long way to go.
I confronted her about the actions of his brothers. Her response was that we should end the relationship.
She told me point blank to find another woman and marry because her two brothers were against the marriage.
Ironically, she has set spies on me, telling my friends she will cause trouble if I don’t marry her.

Kofrom,
Dear Barima,
Are you prepared mentally, emotionally and financially to get married this year or you are getting married because of pressure from family?
Your former girlfriend is obviously hurt and still loves you that is why she has set spies on you.
But I must say her approach was wrong and immature.
I suggest you approach one of the marriage counsellors in your church and ask them to advise you and resolve the uneasiness between you and your former girlfriend.
