I just like how Alh. Musa Yar'adua had only seven point agenda and was able to implement them.
GEJ had only one point agenda which was setting up committee but nothing to show for.
PMB might just do 10/36 of his promises.
I hope he does more than that because we voted for him based on those promises.

The Age shouldn't be an excuse for failure to keep promises, besides he is our president so due respect should be given to the office, however as Nigerians we need him to start delivering on his promises.

Don't be disturbed. Keep calm.

Even the most ardent but rational critic would accept the fact that with all the happenings in the country presently, there's too much problems on ground that needs urgent attention before he can even settle down to work on his promises.

But God is in control sha.
Yes. We are patiently waiting. But the accusations against him are pilling fast too. And on top of it is tribalism. I voted for GMB, I voted for a Nigerian president not a sectional or tribal leader. So if the rumors are false ( which I pray they are) he should start delivering on those promises above.
God bless Nigeria.

I personally do not think it's a faux pas.....I've seen guys wear socks on native attires and they looked fab....perhaps you need to ensure there are no color clashes though...i.e. the socks color should not be 'out of touch' compared to your native outfit......also ensure the socks is not a soccer socks (lol, just joking smiley)
Lol. That's true, my socks wasn't soccer socks though, but the shoe and socks were black, compared to the brown native wear.

This morning I decided to do something I haven't done for a while, wear a native dress. However while winding down the dressing I discovered that I don't possess any good sandal as foot wear. Being a brave fashionister lol, I decided to wear a shoe and a socks. Little did I know I had committed a faux pau because I was accosted by a fellow staff, a lady, who advised me never to try it again.
The question my people is, is it wrong to wear socks to a shoe on native wear?
Thanks

'I'm sorry" she gazed down on him. " could this keep you laid up for a while?"
"Yes"
" Will your family need to be contacted to come and get you?"
" I have no family," he said tightly
" Friends, then?
He shook his head 
" Are you from around here?
" I used to be "
" Oh. Of course , you're welcome to stay with us as long as you like" she glanced at his knee. " Until you're better or someone can come for you"
" No, I-" He cut off his response.
" Let me go get the medicine . We can talk about this when you aren't in so much pain"
Bending over, she adjusted the ice on his knee, smiled weakly at him and held out her hand. " The keys?
He tossed them to her. "The small traveling case has my shaving kit. So bring that in" then he added, " Please"
"Be right back"
She sensed his eyes on her as she left , as if he was analyzing her . The feeling was odd, and she wondered if she was missing something.

*You are welcome to stay with us long as you like.. Until you're better or someone can come for you.
Mayo linked his hand behind his head and, despite the throbbing in his knee , smiled. What a setup . She'd just invited him into her home.
It was perfect. He needed to work  in the bookstore only four weeks to get the inheritance. This sprawling one stores family house was within the city limits, fulfilling the residency requirement . He could stay out here anonymously, for a week or so, play the injured hero , and discover everything he needed to know about Aina. Had she used his aunts to get control of the store and keep a roof over her head? Maybe she was hoping to get everything once they died. Hot down. He could talk to her, invite her confidences. His gaze rested on the computer across the room. If he was lucky , her business accounts were on that little baby, as well as her personal finances . He could do it while she worked at the bookstore, blissfully ignorant of his machinations. He could even snoop through her personal belongings.
A chuckle escaped him. If he believed in God, he'd thank HIm for the golden opportunity. Since Mayo had learned to believe only himself after the showdown with his father fifteen years ago, he will simply follow his instincts to find out exactly what Aina had done to cause the old man to make her the beneficiary of such a large sum.
It might be fun.
On the heels of that unkind thought came the image of her tear ravaged face.the woman had been stricken by the vents of the morning. Kayode was right on that, she really looked like a hardworking women. Her brown eyes had been filled with such terror it effected even him.
But hell, she could be a loving mother and manipulative bitch at the same time. He'd known women with more conflicting traits. He closed his eyes to stop seeing the room that had been his as a child. He'd slept in this very sleigh bed on the nights and weekends he'd stayed with his aunts. It was no use . The yellow wallpaper had faded, but all the furniture was the same . One wall still sported shelves of his football trophies and his Saheed Osupa. He wondered idly what had happened to his books. The irony of recuperating here now didn't escape him.

Friends the interaction has been slow. Is the story progressing the way you want it?

HealthStrange Ailment Kills Twelve In Ondo by amdo007(op): 11:20am On Apr 17, 2015
Twelve persons have been confirmed dead
sequel to the outbreak of a strange disease
that broke out at Ode Irele, the headquarters
of Irele Local Government Area of Ondo State
on Tuesday.
The State Commissioner for Health, Dr Dayo
Adeyanju, who confirmed the casualty figures
to journalists in Akure, the state capital, said
four other persons were being given isolated
treatment at the General Hospital in the town.
He said unconfirmed reports on Thursday
morning said two out of the four patients
undergoing treatment in an isolated clinic
had died in the morning.
Adeyanju, who said the presentation from the
investigations carried out on the victims did
not reveal symptoms of the dreaded ebola
disease, said the State Government had moved
into the area to curtail spread of the strange
disease.
He said preliminary report showed that the
dead persons complained of headache and
later lost their sight before they finally gave
up.
While stating that it was not a case of Ebola
Virus Disease (EVD), Adeyanju said there were
no cases of diarrhoea, vomiting and
haemorrhage that are usual symptoms of the
dreaded EVD.
The commissioner, who gave the assurance
that government would do everything possible
to control the strange ailment, said the World
Health Organisation (WHO) and other
partners were already involved in the matter.
He said samples taken from the victims had
been sent to 0lagos for proper investigation.
Adeyanju said because the source of the
disease had not been known, government had
been engaging in advocacy to ensure that new
cases are reported adding that concealment
could be devastating.
He advised the relations of the victims from
burying the corpse of the affected people at
home saying that they should take burry the
dead ones at cemetery and be very careful
during burials.
The commissioner said the State already have
the cremation law, government would have
recovered the dead body from families if the
state crematorium had been completed
Adeyanju said the State Disease Surveillance
Team and volunteers that were engaged
during the ebola cases had been deployed to
the area to control the ailment.
He also disclosed that the Personnal Protective
Equipment purchased by the government
during ebola cases had been deployed to the
area with the handlers.
He warned the people against
sensationalising issues as this to avoid
creating tension among the people
particularly on the social media.
He urged the people to rely on the information
from the official sources to avoid creating
panic among the people.
