emmysenior: [b] Are we Nigerians coward?
Or are we shy..?
Or we care somehow?
But we don't wanna try,
We have adjusted ourselves,
So well in this corrupted place,
Has it become our tradition ?
Or we lack the guts to face…
We say corruption chokes,
Then why we Nigerians breathe it ?,
We say corruption kills,
Then why we breed it ?,
The corruption helps,
To set the culprits free,
It blinds the law,
& still we shamely see,
It widens the gap,
Of poor and rich,
Then we continue the same,
Without any hitch… ?
Somehow I feel…
Our coward mind has,
Hurled down his brain,
Come what may,
Even let our money drain…
Has this become, Our way of life ?
To adjust with whatever it is…
And move on, Without a break to re-think, Re-
construct, and reform our Corrugated minds…
Is it that no business runs without it ?,
Or is it that we don't wanna put an end to it..?
Are we not prepared for it.. ?
Or we really don't care ?
Many questions in these little brain, And almost
all unanswered……
But at least we can support those,
Who have at least tried to stand for it,
Some great ones like... Like... Like... I can only imagine.

Sometimes, I ask, are we growing wiser or are we just growing tall?

Dear God! Pls let our beginning step right in.

delpee: This is disgraceful. Neither Bayelsa govt nor NYSC has been able to do anything!
May God heal her thoroughly.

Account No please , so some of us can chip in our widows mite. Tiny drops of water make the ocean. The phone idea is not the best.
How about NL charity team?

Kokofi: brb... Make i go gather momentum!

emma_best2000: So sad ,

delastbishop: When I saw this post last nite I said to myself that some is trying to scam sympathetic Nigerians cos I was on around when she was taken to the immigration office for her passport. I didn't comment yesterday until this morning to enable verify this story. Shock to my bones when I got to the hospital this morning to learn that the girl is still there.The wife of the gov. was supposed to visit her in the hospital yesterday been Independence day but she did not show up.I can't believe this.My findings this morning has made me lost my patriotic zeal.To your tents o Israel or is it o Nigerians

vivacious vivi: But why would and why should Vanguard Newspaper (not any dirty ragbag newspaper o), lie about something so important and sensitive and this How the matter come enter their paper like that?
At Topic: I think we should all try to donate or something. Is there any way this can be organized at short notice please?

MojiDelano: It is with great pain in my heart that I write this post.
Yesterday, I got a very sad email from friends of Folakemi Akinbode(pictured above), the corper nurse whose head was almost chopped off by cultists in Yenogua Bayelsa as she served her father land through youth service. By sheer providence she escaped death, but not unscarred. The cultists who aimed for her neck almost chopped off her arm.
Read comprehensive reports about the incident HERE and HERE.
When the news broke and went viral, An Italian firm that remains unknown promised to step in and take up the matter. Government was also quick to step in(or so we thought) as it was announced on various mediums that she will be flown abroad where the arm will be properly treated, and hopefully salvaged.Considering that the incident happened as she served her country, it was an a very welcome development when government and and the Italian Firm promised to foot her medical bill.

But lo and behold! I got the email below from her friends saying that NOTHING has been done by government or any Italian firm till date. In fact, Folakemi's health continues to deteriorate as she groans in growing, excruciating pain daily. As this rate, the probability that her arm will be saved lies solely in God's hands. However, it is her life that should be feared for now, not even just arm.


At the moment, Her friends and hospital sources at Niger Delta teaching hospital where she is presently on admission say that she has been moved from intensive care to the GENERAL WARD. She no longer receives adequate treatment the arm deserves.

See the unedited email I got from her friends below:
^[/sup]

From all indication, we can no longer rely on a lying Government to save Folakemi's life.
This is why I call on all well meaning, kind hearted Nigerians, to come to Folakemi's aid. Folakemi could be our friend, sister or neighbor. This could happen to anyone.
Daily, many Nigerian youths risk their lives(as most have no choice) despite the chaotic security state of the nation, through the National youth service, and many have lost their lives in the process. Sadly most times as in this case, the government turns a blind eye.
I implore you ll to please come to Folakemi's aid once again. Please publicize her story so that Government,people in high places as well as private individuals who can help may rise to the occasion as soon as possible.

TIME IS OF ESSENCE, PLEASE!

To help please call these numbers:

Thank you!!!
