DamiBukola:
Is your father Ekiti worker, when last did you hear Ekiti workers complaining about non payment?

Why are you out there asking questions? Ekiti is hotter than fire. For your question, ask the youths who are ready to oust him and ask Fayose who knows his people better.

CROWNWEALTH019:
I served in ekiti and I can bet to deactivate my moniker if PDP lose the forthcoming election. Fayose is a grassroot politician and he's loved by the masses, all those making noise na BMC online them be... To win election in ekiti by PDP is far easier than rivers state, he is loved by the people cause of the development he brought to them. Madridguy na this kind thing way you they do go make Madrid lose champions league final

U've spoken well.Those youths that are almost losing their parents to hunger will vote for him.Those workers that can't afford their Children's fees will vote for him.

Not about Fayose only though, these politicians have almost something to offer. we must chase them out

The spirit of revolution is taking over in Ekiti

There is no magic anywhere fa,

When Last Did His Excellency Visit India?

An open letter to Mrs Feyisetan Fayose

Your Excellency,
In the newfangled Nigeria, People who have authoritarian and commanding powers are rumored to have got it from India. Anyone who has ever checked out 'The end time' a nollywood movie of some years ago would be a witness to my testimonial. The many sequels on how powerful India is with her magicians, cults, palmists, astrologers etc were corroborated with Obasanjo's reported visit to an astrologer in India to ascertain his date of birth. Mrs Fayose, what might have given your tall man the daring to go on air and inform the well educated and polished people of Ekiti that he would contest the governor's sit again in 2018 Ceteris paribus? I sense some Indian concoctions at work. What else could be working that alchemy?

Dear mrs first lady, with due respect, help inform him that some of us almost cry whenever he inaugurates his executive comedies.Please, see it as supposed; he has done nothing to justify the votes we freely gave him in the first place. How will the almost eight months pension he owes justify his victory? Or will about seven months local government salaries' nonpayment cop a plea for his historic 16-0? How many months is it now that he owes state workers? Did you take your time to hang on your husband's words during his recent radio session(Mr governor explains)? He said so many bitter nothings. Have you ever heard a sitting governor tell workers to sit back at home enjoying because they are working for him? In the sane world, it's not done no matter what. I would rather question his comprehension of workers' role in a state's development. His he on the beam of what governance is all about? Didn't you feel sorry for Ekiti when he said either him(the owner as he said) or his boys would continue to rule? He was even puffed up enough to compare the office he occupies with the Davidic kingdom and hinted on how the descendants of the legendary king David would continue to be kings in Israel. He is bent on installing kings for us, either we like it or not? Will you also be part of this god-fatherism in the making?

Madam, can your husband possess people too? Like he also got the power from India. Many Ekiti people, the speaker especially and the entire house of assembly members seem possessed by the spirit of Fayose, Commissioners, do they exist? Why is he ruling Ekiti? Why is he running affairs like the state is his inheritance or we are his perpetual subjects?
I will off the point a little, what do Nigerian governors take governance for? Is being a governor about sharing monthly allocations among stakeholders and crying to the media whenever it falls in amount? Is it about waiting for tax payers morning as IGR? Can't they drive their states to independence? Can't they be productive too? Let's leave that for the downstream.

Your Excellency, those Indian magicians must be very powerful, if Mr governor got even his confidence from there. One thing I love about him is his boldness.The gut that drove him to tell us how he and some people were playing games. Playing games with our future? Playing games with the likes of Fayemi and Segun Oni right? He his even courageous enough to overlook what should be his horror, as if he is not aware that there is fire on the mountain. His nerve will not save him this time.The battle line is drawn, Ekiti youths will soon overtake him.The revolutionary fire is very voracious, ready to get rid of every hindrance. After all, we are the voters, majority of the electorate. What a bloodless revolution! Feyisetan, if your husband would not pack his belongings from the state house by October 2018, you had better pack yours. In fact I advise you to start packing by January to ease the burden. If abracadabra is endearing him to the heart of Ekiti people, it will not stand the sigh of the Almighty. The oppressed are crying for vengeance, the spirits of those aged pensioners who died of hunger are seeking revenge. God is ready, the youths are ready."Youths must not just exist but live, our parents must not just endure but enjoy life." I'm almost done, best wishes to Mr Governor and nightmare of the federal government. Please remember to ask him, when was the last time he visited India?

Sincerely,
Ayeni Faith Damilola.

happy birthday

Hmmm

Tosin Ajibare Is 35, Must I Then Go Hug Transformer? (part 2) by Ayeni Faith Damilola


"Collins, sorry, Carol's hubby(he said smiling)." "Are you serious at all? Naughty dude." "Ha ha ha ha." "Na you sabi, whats up with you nigga?." "Kinda tired bro, just coming from the Secretariat." "I trust you, Ajibare's boy." "Did you hear from Carol?" "Yea, she's fine; just pretty busy with her finals." "That coruscating beauty!" "That's my babie, Can you Imagine what I heard today?" "What again?" "One of Carol's lecturers invited her to his office." "So, what?" "He gave her a #1500 plate of rice from one popular eatery like that, guess what?" "Guy, speak up, you know I'm tired." "He requested having her right there in his office." "Canal knowledge of her in exchange for a plate of rice?" "I'm damn serious." That was humiliating, what did he take her for?" "He took her for one of the many hungry girls on campus, who would go any length to earn a meal." "Hmmm..." "Mr lecturer, he guessed right." "Whaat! Please tell me it's not true, she gave in to his plea and still had the courage to inform you? I don't wanna hear that, please, please, this is hell! My friend will visit the lagoon today!!"(he protested as he covered his ears)."Don't kill yourself dude, she didn't, she has a very high moral standard." "But you said, he guessed right." "Yes, I meant Carol is really one of the many poor ladies on campus, when she said no to the lecturer, she had not eaten for two days." "That serious? Her pretty look won't make you notice." "Yea, her dad is retired and since pension is not forthcoming, no show." "What of that her older brother, who works for one of the most popular political parties in the country?" " You think youths make it in those parties? He has been a party member for 10yrs now, he has devotedly worked for his party's success in two Gubernatorial elections in this state, still no show o; he has nothing to show for it despite being a very intelligent university graduate." " I thought he is the one paying your babe's fees, he even sustained injuries during the last election trying to protect his party's votes." "In those parties, while Big-names recycle themselves, youths live from hand to mouth.But for the so called elites, it's one post today, another tomorrow; father today, son or wife tomorrow." "what a great privilege for those of us in ID(independent democrats), where you can become anything you want as much as you are capable and ready to deliver, but, I have friends and neighbours who identify with either PDP or APC ; what do they gain from there?" "I don't know, but will tell you a story." "I'm all ears." "One of the greatest politicians in history got out of bed one morning and decided to school his pals on how to helve the masses. He invited them for a seminar where he would be the rethorician. They were all well perched when the stellar entered regally, so, they all rose to honour him with a standing ovation but were all stupfied to see him hold a hen. They managed to resume their places in furniture anyway(they sat down). He horsed the podium, and for his speech, started removing the live hen's feathers while his audience looked on in whammy. The hen groaned and cried in severe, austere, deadpan and grave pain as all its feathers was removed in an obdurate and pitiless manner. The man dropped the bleeding and naked hen on the ground, brought out maize grains and started dropping it as he walked to his seat. Hmmm, it was a sight to behold as the anguished creature started following the man, picking those maize grains helplessly. The man then told his myrmidons that the hen represented the people, embezzle their wealth, waste their resources, maim them, kill their parents with hunger, subject them to inhuman treatments then give them few naira notes, give them a small bowl of rice,give them nothings and they will come running to you, singing your panegyrics and congnomen like Jackson." "Wicked! that was wicked." "That is just the argument behind my consistent call on the youths to flee from the coercion of these big parties and their big wigs who have nothing to offer them. All jokes aside, we have no future there. How I wish Ekiti youths can understand what this revolution stands for, you can become anything in the ID, here we are all independent democrats, nobody will use you as thugs, you are no longer delinquents; you are no longer sentinels, everyone is equal, we must work for our parents carte blanche, they must be free, and in Gold's own words, "Youths must live and not just exist, our parents must enjoy and not just endure life." "But wait Collins, you are not gonna hug transformer any longer?" "No(laughs), I won't kill myself, like Tosin Ajibare I'm now an agent of change, he told me the story you just heard." "That knowledge-bin of a guy." "Yeah, there is hope boy, it's gonna be fun!"

If Fayose was disrespectful in his frequent attacks, then, what describes your own impudence is beyond the latest British Dictionary. Did you read what you wrote? How you disrespected a sitting governor? You are offhand, inconsiderate and scarcely cultured.Meanwhile, Ekiti people are out of Fayose's grip, they are going for Gold.If you don't mind, read this:

Ekiti Jollof Rice is the Best! Have you seen it's look?

By:Ayeni Faith Damilola

Going by the recent bandy on the soul of Jollof Rice (huh! funny right?), I've conducted a beautiful research and have got you this one, so yummy,so titillating, so exquisite and tempting.Have you not heard Lai Mohammed's response to Richard quest's question? The minister of information was a habitué in a popular CNN programme 'Quest means business' where he was asked, which country makes the best Jollof rice? The informant general favoured Senegalese Rice over the Nigerian, to the bummer of many natives; when he said "I'll probably say Senegal." If you are still there, Proff Osinbajo swiftly combated the earlier claim on "The platform Nigeria," saying, "And by the way, we all know that Nigerian jollof rice is the best, we beat the Ghanaians and the Senegalese hands down” (all these during recession?) The vice-president was humorous about it though. I have never tasted Senegalese jollof rice(have you?), even the Nigerian one I've relished can not stand in the committee of first class delicacies (do you get that?).Not only me,many Nigerians that would have contributed to this 'jollof rice' debate can not afford a 'very good garri'(the one with either kuli, groundnut or sugar) not to talk of sauntering into portofino to order for a plate of Senegalese rice.If Nigeria was a place to be, if people could afford what they wanted, if we could really "live and not just exist," like children of politicians;oh! How interesting would this debate have been?
Take a look at the jollof rice I've brought to your notice, it is quite novel that I must keep you up-to-date.While politicians were busy spending our collective bounty like water, Tosin Ajibare and Ekiti youths were spending 'their own' hard-earned cash on our freedom,our relieve. They were spending their sweat to see you live like humans, to give you the real dividends of democracy that you deserve.Listen, is this suffering not enough?(na who I go ask? right? hmmmm).Is this hunger not enough? Is this unemployment not enough? Is this scarcely interrupted blackout not enough? Are these bad-road-caused deaths not enough? Is this nonpayment of salaries and pensions not enough? The teeth of Mr tooth is indeed uncountable (mélòó la fé kà léyín Adépèlé). What can you say of the number of promising graduates poverty has turned criminals? Look around and see old people (pensioners especially) dieing, going blind, going lame and becoming paralyzed due to bankruptcy. This is the minim,Tosin has prepared a delicious Ekiti jollof rice flavoured by Ekiti youths. The much propagated revolution has adopted a political party called 'Independent Democrats'. It is the youth party! The pensioners' party!! The workers party!!! Let the destitute come home, let real democrats come home; let the homeless come home, let Nigerian students come home, let okada riders come home, let farmers come home; for the time to get rid of our coat-of-mail has come.Independent Democrats will rescue the soul of Ekiti in 2018, we are taking over governance to work for your luxury.So, if you are interested in the 'best' jollof rice everyone can afford, stand up now,find your way to adkins house, agric olope junction, ajilosun Ado-Ekiti or call any of these lines: 08033431685,08030616878 for your free membership registration.One more thing, You are gonna get your membership Identity card in a flash!

INDEPENDENT DEMOCRATS


CORRECT PEOPLE, CORRECT PARTY

ku amojuba awon 82 Chibok girls, o”
“What is that supposed to mean in plain English? You better watch your tongue. It will be politically incorrect and suicidal to start making a joke out of something that serious.”
“Where is the joke?”
“In your tone. I know you when you want to start your mischief.”
“I am a born-again Christian”
“I know. Like Stephanie Otobo telling Apostle Suleiman that she is born-again after maligning the man’s reputation. Don’t just say anything until you have confessed your sins. Confess. Confess, now.”
“I am not a politician. I am neutral. And I won’t reach conclusions based on circumstantial evidence.”
“It’s me you are talking to. Try another mischief.”
“But I say, e ku amojuba”
“Thank you. Politics 101: anybody that says anything other than to commend the Federal Government for rescuing the 82 Chibok girls should be condemned. Don’t forget that the Red Cross is part of this, and UNICEF is also offering help. Everything should not be partisan.”
“I am not saying anything anti-government. As a father myself, whatever the game is, if there is any, whatever political marketing is involved, I actually believe that those young ladies need support, and this may well be their opportunity in life. They have been showcased. I may have my reservations.”
“You see? What reservations?”
“I am just surprised that the whole drama appears to be professionally stage-managed. The girls even looked as if some of them were wearing costumes, I mean aso ebi.”
“Only the enemies of progress will look for things like that.”
“The girls looked as if they were actresses in a script they did not understand.”
“But they are back. So? What are you actually complaining about? The rescue, or the management of the optics?”
“Some people are saying that by 2019, just before the elections, the last batch of the Chibok girls will emerge from wherever they are.”
“Obviously, some people are weaving a conspiracy theory. I think the next time government wants to swap the girls for terrorists they should just swap supporters of the Jonathan government for the Chibok girls. That will settle this matter once and for all.”
“Why Jonathan’s people? I think they should swap Nigerian Senators who have refused to pass the 2017 budget.”
“What? Saraki’s Senators? Whoever tries that, ajekun iya ni o je, ajekun iya ni o je….”
“You dey craze. People, and these are Nigerians, are saying they have a feeling the girls have become pawns in a grand political strategy and game.”
“Can you prove that?”
“I don’t need to prove anything. In politics and political science, there is something called game theory and it is real.”
“Billy Dudley. I remember what Professor Dudley said, but you can’t reduce everything to textbook thinking. Get real. We should join government to thank God.”
“Whatever it is, whatever the truth is, and whatever the post-truth is, I want the best for those girls. And it is not a job for government alone. Take the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) for example. When the girls were first abducted, CAN and the Western world did not allow us to rest. They packaged the Chibok girls’ abduction as an assault on Christianity. They maligned Moslems.”
“I remember that”
“We Christians often theatricalize our religion, posturing that we epitomize what Christ lived and died for. For me there is a metaphorical correlation between the situation of these girls, “dead” as it were for three years, resurrecting now, shortly after Easter. We love to take swipes at the other religion. Now that we have some of the girls back, what plans do the money-spinning, faith-based universities have for them?”
“How? This is not about religion.”
“These churches run educational institutions from crèche to the university. Go and look at the full list of the rescued Chibok girls. They are mostly Christians. Instead of blaming Moslems, can Covenant, Babcock, Redeemed, Salem, Benson Idahosa, Joseph Ayo Babalola, Caritas and similar institutions adopt these ladies, support government, and begin the process of healing the wounds of the past three years?”
“I am confused. I don’t really know where you stand. You talk this way. You talk that way. Can we talk about something else?”
“My stand is clear. What else, if I may ask?”
“Like #BAAD 2017. Banky W getting engaged to Adesua Etomi, and how the best way to get a wife in this digital age is to slide into DMs. Very soon, churches will start organizing seminars on the value of the DM on twitter as a tool for defeating the demon of being single. I am sure there are Bible passages that will illuminate that.”
“Congratulations to Banky W and Adesua, then. They may just have started a revolution in the marriage theatre.”
“Or we can talk about Davido and the baby shower with his Baby Mama in Atlanta.”
Chat to check prices of phones, TVs, appliances etc on Facebook Messenger
“How is that an important subject when we are talking about game theory and Nigerian politics?”
“It is a very hot subject among the Nigerian youth”
“Really? Okay, then, let us discuss it when Davido beats Tu Baba’s record, or when he finally decides to move from friend zone to husband zone.”
“ Agba ya ni wo egbon yin ke. Wetin? Je ki awon boys je aye ori won. Okay let’s talk about the Demuren baby bump.”
“No. Can we go back and talk about Nigeria? How for example, Nigeria can produce its own Emmanuel Macron in 2019? And in case you don’t know, Macron is the 39-year old young man who has just won the Presidential election in France, the youngest since Napoleon.”
“We can do the same thing here. How old was Gowon when he became Head of State? It is nothing new. All those people who laid the foundation for modern Nigeria were all young men in their 20s and 30s. In recent times, we have also had young men becoming Speakers of Nigerian legislatures at different levels or even Governors.”
“And what happened? Did the young men perform? What happened to the foundation and the building?”
“The law does not allow anyone below 40 to aspire to become President of Nigeria, but some people have started a Not-Too-Young-To-Run-Movement. We should be optimistic.”
“When you look at the on-going game in the country, do you see the possibility of any age-based revolution in Nigerian politics?”
“Yes. Macron started a movement of his own and the entire country bought into it.”
“So, what are you waiting for? You too can start a movement here as an independent candidate and tell Nigerians to queue up behind you.”
“I am thinking about it, why not?”
“My friend, wake up! Macron is 39. He is married to a woman who is 64 years old, his mother’s age mate. You think Nigerians will accept that? He didn’t have to share money to be accepted. He has no known Godfather. Even his opponent, Marine Le Pen does not have a Godfather. Her own father actually gave a pass mark to Macron after their last debate when he said Macron sounded more serious and more assertive.”
“Those are Oyinbo things”
“Say that to those who are saying Macron has won in France. Tell them, they can also have a French Revolution in Nigeria. But tell them to note the cultural differences, and how politics is a game in one country and how it is about the people and their future in another country. When will politics ever be about the people in Nigeria?”
“We can do it.”
“Don’t just mouth slogans. This is how you people always get Nigeria into trouble. Tell me what you intend to do about the dinosaurs who are the game makers in Nigerian politics. Nobody made an issue out of Macron’s ethnicity, religion, or age. It was all about issues. In those countries that we like to use as reference points, democracy has become a science, a social science, but in Africa – democracy is witchcraft. The more you see, the less you understand.”
“What I know is that Nigeria has a Macron out there”
“And a sick Donald Trump out there too, who will get to power because of all the games we play in this country”
“Haba!”
“Don’t get worked up. You know for me, the most beautiful thing about the French Presidential election is that after the battle was won and lost, Marine Le Pen conceded to Macron and she went to a club to dance. A few hours after losing, she was in a club singing Hip and Hop Karaoke: “I Love Rock N Roll” by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts and she spinned around to YMCA by the Village People. She just lost an election. For her, France is more important. Her life does not depend on political office. When we get to that level, we can start comparing our democracy with others.”
“Hmm”
“When people lose election in Nigeria, it is a kind of bereavement. Now that suicide is a popular response in Nigeria, don’t also be surprised if our politicians start committing suicide after elections.”
“I am an optimist. We will get there.”
“I am a pragmatist. In Nigeria, when something goes up, it never goes down. Take Uber taxi charges. Uber has tried to reduce its charges all over the world due to competition with its key rival, Taxify. It is only in Nigeria that Uber drivers have organized protests. They say they don’t want the 40% reduction in tariffs. They want Uber to reduce its own returns. That is Nigeria for you. The Buhari government promised to fight corruption, but Professor Tam David-West, a die-hard Buharist is now suddenly a whistle-blower. He is now lamenting that President Buhari is surrounded by corrupt persons. Aso Villa demons at work, certainly, I think.”
“God will intervene”
“Yes. God. We end up leaving everything to God and prayers…”
AIG Taiwo Lakanu: Friend, Officer and Gentleman
I am not a fan of police officers. Over the past 32 years, I have done enough character sketches, caricatures and acerbic commentaries about the Nigeria Police to fill a whole book. But in the process, I have also come in contact with and made friends with many police officers who have proven to be true professionals. Taiwo Lakanu, who has just been promoted from his post as Commissioner of Police in Imo State to Assistant Inspector General of Police in Abuja is one of such.
Lakanu is essentially an operations man. From DPO to anti-armed robbery squad, to IGP aide, to commissioner of police, and now AIG, he has managed over the years, to build a network of contacts at all levels of the Nigerian society. He is the archetypal police as your friend, he reaches out to the community, he has a forever listening ear and he is fiercely loyal to his bosses. When it comes to his job, he is extremely stubborn and unyielding. A lawyer and a trained officer, he does not joke with his job.
He once told me the story of how a certain notorious herbalist-armed robber taken into custody became a chief informant to the station, and who helped the Special Anti-Armed Robbery Squad in Lagos to nail many armed robbers. When the fellow suddenly died as he had himself predicted, Lakanu said he wept. The man had become an asset to the Nigerian state. When Lakanu told me other stories of face-to-face encounters with hoodlums during operations, I often wondered how he has managed to survive. Police work is tough work.
Lakanu’s elevation is certainly a reward for hardwork, diligence and professionalism. I congratulate him on his achievement. He has not served as Police PRO but he is probably the most influential police officer of his grade among Nigerian journalists.
I am not surprised that he recently excelled as CP, Imo State where he proved to be an asset to all and sundry by ridding the communities of established crime. Upon his departure, dances were organized to celebrate him.
The Governor named a street in his honour. He was also offered a plot of land which he was told he could choose as his retirement base in the future, in addition to a sum of N5 million as “fuel money.” He may have rejected the land and the fuel money, but in truth, it is not always that Nigerian police officers are so honoured. Oftentimes, they are chased away by the same people they are asked to protect. Lakanu’s example is instructive. The Akogun of Lagos, thank you for living true to your traditional title. Hearty congratulations.

Tosin Ajibare is 35, Must I Then Go Hug Transformer?

BY: Ayeni Faith Damilola

"Hey Toms," "Whats up with you man?" "I'm good nigga." "But you don't look it" "Hen-hen, seriously?" "Yeah buh, I can see it in your eyes" "Abeg free me joor, you look gorgeous and happy." "Unlike you!" "Anyhow sha, what's the secret?" "Don't tell me you are not aware" "Of what?" "I can see something is really wrong with you, in case you care; Tosin Ajibare is 35!" "I should go hug transformer?" "Are you that angry? Has it got to that?" "I'm here thinking of how I'll travel to Lagos you are telling me someone is celebrating his birthday, to hell with all of you!" "This guy is not just 'someone,' right? His birthday signifies freedom for all; you know he is into this trending Ekiti guber race" "Oh, you mean that guy, founder of MDYC?" "yeah" "Haa! Politicians and their stratagem, he is 35; telling us he is now ripe, eligible to contest?" "You got my point" "Hmmm..." "Why the deep sigh? You said you would travel to Lagos; hope it's not what I'm thinking?" "It is, I wanna go jump into the lagoon asap" "Lagoon?" "You heard me" "I understand, be patient a little, you are gonna be employed" "I would have, but something else has happened" "Carol is pregnant" "Pre...g whaat!?" "You heard me" "OK, OK (un-easy) what's gonna happen now?" "I can't abort" "Whaat" "I'm a Catholic ,can't kill an innocent and helpless baby" "Mr saint, but you could do dah one na" "It was a mistake and I've prayed for forgiveness, moreover, her hymen was intact before she met me; so I can't risk her life and future, she doesn't deserve it" "And now you wanna commit suicide instead and rot in hell? But that fiery pastor is organizing a 3 days marathon prayer for job seekers, don't you have faith?" "It's not about marathon prayers, look at it this way: there are three job vacancies somewhere and 5,000 applied, will 3 days marathon employ all of them?" "So?" "The problem is, there isn't job nowhere in Nigeria. Our leaders are too busy enriching themselves and their children while they keep us arms akimbo with sweet nothings;they don't care what we are passing through, they are asleep on the job, dallying, languorous,passive, bollixed, mystified and just-can't-help(sobs)." "But your camou- wearing governor just ate rice in public to identify with you" "Are you OK?" "You know I am." "At age 30, I can't still take care of myself not to talk of a baby,I struggled to graduate from the University some Eight years ago with second class upper (looks into the sky and cry bitterly ).Considering my wearing out parents who were peasant farmers, I travelled to Lagos to seriously seek employment but it all ended up a wild goose chase.After four years of futile search, I went for my masters still depending undividedly on my aging parents. Now, my second degree is about two years old yet no job to show for it.Father is now old and can't farm any longer, we wholly calculate on my mum's akara(bean cake) business for survival.How can a family of five survive from a business of less than 500 naira daily winnings? And on my path, Cathe-the doll face my heart beats for- is pregnant, mother must not hear about it(can you Imagine a M.sc holder at 30) lest she slumps and die of shock.I'm tired, I'm fed up, I wanna die!" " This is not a time to think of commiting self-murder. In fact, the time would never come.The revolution has started, Ekiti youth are ready to takeover and make things work. There is an end-in-sight to unemployment and sufferings of this kind." "How?" "That is just what we are celebrating in Tosin Ajibare's 35th birthday." "Who is this man that you trust so much?" "Gold is a man who wears his heart on his sleeves" "Don't trust Politicians" Who will? But Tosin is the best thing that can happen to Nigerian politics at the moment, he has devoted himself to this cause;he loves Ekiti people for real, not our friend but one of us, the solution has descended upon him, the answer is on his tongue, he has the key in his hands." "Are you for real?" "I have challenged him and was fed to stupor, his wisdom though unthinkable has come under his fingers" "Well, happy birthday to him, I doff my cap but hopes he doesn't disappoint."

Ekiti Jollof Rice is the Best! Have you seen its look?

By:Ayeni Faith Damilola

Going by the recent bandy on the soul of Jollof Rice (huh! funny right?), I've conducted a beautiful research and have got you this one, so yummy,so titillating, so exquisite and tempting.Have you not heard Lai Mohammed's response to Richard quest's question? The minister of information was a habitué in a popular CNN programme 'Quest means business' where he was asked, which country makes the best Jollof rice? The informant general favoured Senegalese Rice over the Nigerian, to the bummer of many natives; when he said "I'll probably say Senegal."

Ekiti Jollof Rice is the Best! Have you seen its look?

By:Ayeni Faith Damilola

Going by the recent bandy on the soul of Jollof Rice (huh! funny right?), I've conducted a beautiful research and have got you this one, so yummy,so titillating, so exquisite and tempting.Have you not heard Lai Mohammed's response to Richard quest's question? The minister of information was a habitué in a popular CNN programme 'Quest means business' where he was asked, which country makes the best Jollof rice? The informant general favoured Senegalese Rice over the Nigerian, to the bummer of many natives; when he said "I'll probably say Senegal." If you are still there, Proff Osinbajo swiftly combated the earlier claim on "The platform Nigeria," saying, "And by the way, we all know that Nigerian jollof rice is the best, we beat the Ghanaians and the Senegalese hands down” (all these during recession?) The vice-president was humorous about it though. I have never tasted Senegalese jollof rice(have you?), even the Nigerian one I've relished can not stand in the committee of first class delicacies (do you get that?).Not only me,many Nigerians that would have contributed to this 'jollof rice' debate can not afford a 'very good garri'(the one with either kuli, groundnut or sugar) not to talk of sauntering into portofino to order for a plate of Senegalese rice.If Nigeria was a place to be, if people could afford what they wanted, if we could really "live and not just exist," like children of politicians;oh! How interesting would this debate have been?
Take a look at the jollof rice I've brought to your notice, it is quite novel that I must keep you up-to-date.While politicians were busy spending our collective bounty like water, Tosin Ajibare and Ekiti youths were spending 'their own' hard-earned cash on our freedom,our relieve. They were spending their sweat to see you live like humans, to give you the real dividends of democracy that you deserve.Listen, is this suffering not enough?(na who I go ask? right? hmmmm).Is this hunger not enough? Is this unemployment not enough? Is this scarcely interrupted blackout not enough? Are these bad-road-caused deaths not enough? Is this nonpayment of salaries and pensions not enough? The teeth of Mr tooth is indeed uncountable (mélòó la fé kà léyín Adépèlé). What can you say of the number of promising graduates poverty has turned criminals? Look around and see old people (pensioners especially) dieing, going blind, going lame and becoming paralyzed due to bankruptcy.

Sapiosexuality:
I will never do something illegal for money. Never.

And that is it.

Raintaker:
Hmm, real talkz. Make I go bk to my freelancing, but my mb go soon finish. No free internet service in the country.

funny

Sapiosexuality:
Exactly. That's what I'm doing. From Freelancer, YouTube Adsence, Poetry writing, Creative Writing, CPA Marketing, etc. In two years time there'd be a difference, for sure.

I'm also a freelancer, I'm an article writer and also into Creative writing.Not as if I'm hungry but what really exhausts me is that certain ideas are only workable now. Some needs huge capital investment that some people have doing nothing in their bank accounts. People who have experienced what I'm going through will understand.

divinelove:
Go and work first and raise capital to finance your dream business plan

I'm not lazy, I'm learned and vast for that matter. Even with that, I don't shy away from even labour if the money will justify my sweat.If I see work, I go do bro

Lawnletters:
First, God is with you. Never ever ever buy the lie that God isn't answering your prayers. He has heard you and has answered you. He has given you the provisions you need. Read the accounts of people raised from the dead in the Bible.

In most of the accounts, it always seemed like God was deaf to the plights of the loved. But the resurrection of the dead proved that to be wrong.

So here's what you should do:

Get an amount of money you want to have in your mind. Every day and every time the despondency comes (as many times as it comes up) rejoice and thank God with your lips that you are rich and that you already have that money : 2 Corinthians 8 :9 and 2 Corinthians 9 :8.

Do this consistently, all day, every day and sooner than later that money will appear in your hands.
And know this : you are in my prayers now. I can't wait to hear your testimonies

Thanks bro, I really appreciate

Sapiosexuality:
It's really hard, bro. Very hard. I'm like you. The thing is to intensify your search for greener pastures. Double your efforts. I'm doing the same thing now. From Cash Pirate app,
Bitcoin, YouTube, CPA, Freelancer, Nairalancer, Poetry, etc.

Though none is getting me anything now but it is a gradual process. It will surely change. At times, I take consolation in death. That, at most, in hundred years time, this body will be no more to experience any suffering. Just keeping working hard and hope it will work.

Thanks for your contribution bro, It's kind of too hard in this part of the world.I am a stylist, a writer, an event planner etc. To worsen it all bro I just organised a very beautiful, lucrative and inviting university show that would have earned me millions in a matter of months but those who promised to help finance the show failed to do anything meaningful. I feel like the rich don't want us to get there! it's bad, it's carnivorous. If only you know how much time and efforts I put into actualizing that dream.Banks would not loan you money! they want collateral.Is it that People can't just make it with hardwork? without soiling their hands?

Why is it that no one wants to help another?

People are no longer predictable and it could be a bit dangerous to employ unknown people here and there for your labour.Please contact Damvalots labour supplier on 08100426192 for any form of project: construction and others

*BLAME THE PROGENITORS... BLAME ME AND, BLAME YOURSELF!*
By: Ayeni F. Damilola

Who else should be blamed but those who invited us to this world, who altered our rest in God-knows-where and called us to an uninterrupted suffering in Nigeria. Those who folded their arms in the days of their strength and watched their leaders play cards with our future forgetting William Pitt's words that, "Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who posses it; and this I know, my lords: that where laws end, tyranny begins".

They danced to the trending music of Sunny-Ade and Obey while elites of the day planned our doom,our haemmorrhage and perpetual slavery. Those who refused to make hay while the sun shined so brightly, when the sun had not gotten to the meridian. They left most important things undone, unfortunately for us, the young Iroko tree left unpruned is now matured and demands sacrifices we can't just afford!

If you can not afford a square meal today, "blame" your "parents" or ask them what they did when in the first republic; the days of Tafawa Balewa and Nnamdi Azikiwe, ministers and politicians looted our money and spent most extravagantly and carelessly.

The money that should put food on our table today had been spent frivolously in the 60s without looking back. If you are brilliant but can't afford Nigerian education, "blame" your "parents" for their destructive silence when Gowon's government unfairly released those extremely corrupt politicians indicted, found guilty and jailed by the military government of Aguyi Ironsi.

This empty-headed government did not only allow politicians enjoy their loot but look side way while Military Governors 'directionlessly' squandered our money in the midst of an unprecedented oil boom. The money that should afford us standard education today has been most comfortably wasted in the 70s while our esteemed parents watched most relaxedly. If any of your siblings, friends, family members or fans has been a victim of Bokoharam's bomb, Fulani herds-men massacre or any of the mass free-killings in today's Nigeria blame them.

Blame them, who did nothing or little to challenge the assassination of General Murtala Mohammed in 1976, one man who fought tooth and nail, the infamous epidermis battling Nigerian development. The man behind Asset investigation of 1975 that found twelve Gowon governors guilty, punished them as supposed and purged them of our wealth in their blood stained hands.

Let the destitute blame their parents who delighted pleasure in acquiring high hilled shoes for themselves while about $16 billion oil revenue was reportedly lost between 1979 and 1983 when Shagari was in power. When Umaru Dikko could not account for 4 billion Nigerian naira allocated for rice importation in the second republic.

"Blame" the "progenitors" If 2face could not lead the recent nationwide protest, for they kept silent or did not act enough when Buhari's government tormented the highly esteemed Nigerian human right activist, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, and jailed him. When Funmilayo Ransome Kuti was allegedly thrown down from her storey just because her son was speaking for the masses.

Our parents did not do enough, they did not defend us like soldiers when we were yet vulnerable; they were not rigid like those 1986 revolutionists of the Philippines who challenged the anti-people policies of their government and ousted their president,they were not resolute like the Ethiopians of 1974, they didn't caution Babangida when his government released corrupt politicians from prison and also allowed them access their stolen wealth with which they later lived like kings.

It was in their very eye that Abacha looted $4 billion (international centre for asset recovery, 2009). When the colonial government failed to prosecute Azikiwe for his failure to observe the code of conduct for government officers, when, in 1962, Obafemi Awolowo was investigated and found guilty of corruption by the Coker commission of inquiry,when Okigbo panel report of 1994 on the recognition and reform of the central bank of Nigeria Indicted Babangida, Sani Abacha and former governor of the central bank of Nigeria, for mismanaging about $12.4 billion of windfall between 1988 and 1994.

Therefore, If we can't enjoy electricity, security of lives and properties, standard Education, reliable health care services and good road, the destructive silence of our progenitors should be fingered. Little wonder, they still didn't react when Obasanjo spent over $400 million on turn-around maintenance (TAM) and repairs of rifineries, the result of which we are yet to see (Adekeye, 2003:30).

In 2002, NNPC could not account for 302 billion Nigerian naira and without telling more stories, Obasanjo's first four years as an elected president lingers in our memory for the mysterious departure of about 23 billion naira allegedly stolen by his ministers. What sane man can discuss corruption under Jonathan? Not to talk of a confused,economy-destroying government we have today.

Blame me for my vote, if that man occupies Ekiti government house in this modern world; a man who delights pleasure in shouting without proffering solutions, a man whose obligation as governor is just to wait for allocation and share it before proceeding to the next junction to eat Agbado which he is fondly Identified with.

Agriculture alone is enough to bring our People out of misery but our governor won't listen, for the legislators in Ekiti, the camou-wearing Afao man is a demi-god. For the commissioners, the esteemed fountain of knowledge is a Fayose republic of Ekiti. They are naive, they don't seem to understand governance.

But above all,"blame" yourself if you are a youth and still think of yourself as leader of tomorrow."Blame" yourself if you would still hoist flag for either PDP or APC. Blame yourself if you are still waiting for tomorrow that never comes. Blame yourself if you would still not join this liberal revolution that seeks to make us independent and free from the clutches of powers that be and its characteristic god-fatherism.

Blame yourself if you would not actively support this agenda. Blame yourself if you would not proclaim this gospel very religiously. Blame yourself if you would not go for Gold, if you would not stand with the youth. If you would not stand for Tosin Ajibare, your children will blame you, they will curse you, they will in fact, point guns at you for being destructively silent.
