My mother in-law works at the mortuary
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am 29-year-old man who works in a reputable organisation. I intend to marry my longtime girlfriend this year.
She has been through thick and thin with me and I love her so much.
During our conversation, she told me that her mother works at the mortuary.
I didn’t believe her earlier, only for her mother to tell me that she has been doing that job for the past 16 years and it is very lucrative.
I don’t believe I can proceed with the marriage. How can my in-law be working at the mortuary.
Alfred, Bogosu.

Dear Alfred,
I strongly recommend that you marry your long-time girlfriend, considering the shared experiences you’ve weathered together.
The occupation of your mother-in-law as a mortuary attendant should not be a determining factor in you have decision to marry.
Focus on the exceptional qualities you see in your part ner that led you to propose to her. Embrace the connection you share and move forward with confidence in building a life together, independent of external factors.

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.

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,
Takoradi.
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.
