Nope...has never been...if you go through the mission statement from beginning, it was for all Nigerians across all nations of the woorld. So if you would love to join, kindly let me know as soon as possible by sending me an email indicating your country of residence before we can forward the forms to you because we want to flag it off officially in all chosen locations at the same time....till I hear from you. email me at: dailyy.newss@gmail.com. Again, the forms are downloadable on this site, just check and find where Emyo uploaded it in his last post. You are warmly welcome.

Thanks.

But so far, all your zonal meetings are based in Naija. How do you intend to include those based offshore?

Yes, I was trying to tell one guy, Musa by name, who indicated interest in joining the association, but made mention of the fact that he resides in Liver pool, so I tried letting him know that we are equally planning on having international launch of the association, especially in uk and usa for now...so maybe it all depends on how ambitious and dtermined you guys are in joining this great movement...if truly you guys are interested and want to make it a reality, then we can see how far we can go...and at least with the internet and social network sites, we won't have any difficulty. but as soon as the launching is over, subsequent meetings will be compulsory for members to attend at least once every year or lose their active membership and rights.

We realy growing. Am afraid GEJ met wake-up one morning to change this club, to a chinase country. I would change my name 4rm emyo to Shashu, tel me what chinase name u prefer?

@emyo, ching kong fo looks gud on u

Lol... I'd still retain my 1st name, so it would be Phoebe Lee... Thumbs up guys, this is really a great move towards bringing out the best in us, likewise others out there... Keep the fire burning!

Phiozy: Lol... I'd still retain my 1st name, so it would be Phoebe Lee... Thumbs up guys, this is really a great move towards bringing out the best in us, likewise others out there... Keep the fire burning!

Funny folks....I love the light humours...smiles. Anyway, we are really working hard to make this dream come true because I am well convinced that this very move will expose & uplift so many hidden/undiscovered talents in Nigeria. But all these and more can only happen if we jointly work together with faith, ambition & passion towards the actualization of this amazing dream. Pls do spread the news, click on the facebook fan page & like it, you can as well share it on your facebook wall status, and encourage all those who indicated interest to pls submit their forms on time to enable us appoint zonal coordinators & other organizers against our zonal meetings & official launching coming soonest! Pls have u returned your own form? Do so if u have not. Cheers!

The site is cool, just that the logo graphic is somewhat poor, but I like the design. We will surely need a nice site after our official launch, but like how much should be our budget for a professional site that can allow us carry out certain activities such as: containing all member profiles including pic, short story & poetry section, archives, events with photo gallery, manuscript submission with database management, and some other minor stuffs? Like how much should we be looking at for such a site that will also load very fast?

OK...will get back to you on this...but my friend wasn't the guy who did the logo...he got it from the owners of the website before embarking on the site design. It's just the design we're talking of here. The logo is an image that can always be modified. Will get back to you on your questions...tk

The night bids the day goodbye.
Some say, the day bids the night goodbye.
Whichever way, we are all from God.
Without, we who will glorief God.
The day can not do without the night.
The black gave the whites this hight.
Let be proud.
They are productive moulds,
without the dirt black to exploit.
Yes, its high time the night said,
my significant must be heard and said.

It comes in Black.
It comes with coldness.
It comes with hotness.
It comes like flash.

Black and ugly weekend.
After the stressful week days.
The previous weeks were of struggles.
The present week is dark.

It comes through the air.
The land is not safe.
Water ways are stormy.
Rails are death trap.

Who are we to challenge him?
God is superior.
He is all knowing.
We can only thank him.

I am full of thoughts and questions.
I make wishes and prayers.
Though it will definitely happen to all.
Because it is inevitable.
