Politics › Re: Open Proposition To Nigerians: Accept Me For Who I Am by Appswheel(op): 5:46pm On Aug 06, 2014
jerseyboy: Justice. Without which there can't be peace. To start with let everyone control their resource. Run a true federation. Grow at their own pace.
What do you mean by Justice? Let me give you an example of a state in Nigeria, Kogi state, whose composition is made of different tribes, i call it a mini nigeria. When you say everyone should control their resources regionally, dont be surprised that the different tribes that constitutes a state will also call for resource control. Pleaase define what you mean by justice. For me, any resource found anywhere within the confines of Nigeria, is for all Nigerians.
Politics › Open Proposition To Nigerians: Accept Me For Who I Am by Appswheel(op): 2:51pm On Aug 06, 2014
I Olorunfemi Babatunde accepts you [put your name here] as my neighbour, to share the same country (Nigeria) with you peacefully, from this day forward, whether Muslim or Christian, whether Ibo, Hausa, Fulani, Igala, Yoruba etc with crude oil or no crude oil till death do us part.

The foundation on which successful marriages, friendships are built is acceptance, without it, no marriage, friendship will stand the test of time. The marriage vow exchanged by wedded couples typifies total acceptance.

By saying “I do” couples agree to stay, live with their perfect imperfections as put in John Legends song, “All of me”. By coming together as one, couples procreate, keep each other’s company, enjoy the good times and withstand the tides, waves of life together – as promised when making their vow, “for better, for worse”.

The place of my birth, Nigeria illustrates the result of lack of acceptance. 100 years after amalgamation the different ethnic groups that make up Nigeria have refused to accept one another, we have refused to live together as one. Issues like resource control, political difference, religious affiliations continue to tear us apart.

I am seizing this opportunity to plead with all the Major and Minor ethnic groups that make up Nigeria to come together as one – Nigeria will be great when we complement one another. We must accept that this country is made up of Christians, Muslims and traditional worshippers. Everyone free to practise his/her religion.

We must accept that whatever minerals, natural resources found in Nigeria irrespective of its location is for the good, benefit of all Nigerians. The natural resources we have is for our common good, it is not meant for some government officials, neither is it to enrich a selected few in the host community where such resources are located.

The crude oil in the South-East, and all other minerals, natural resources located in every part of Nigeria are for the benefit of Nigerians. You will agree with me that the South easterners cannot consume crude oil. What happens if the Hausa farmers in the north decides to sell a bulb of onion for 90 Naira (The same price as a litre of petrol)?

I plead with government to do the needful by ensuring that the exploration of crude oil in oil producing states conform with international, safe standards. Crude oil must not be explored at the detriment of the host communities, the safety of the environment, habitat should be upheld. It must also be ensured that host communities benefit economically. This is not to say that south easterners should see the crude oil as “theirs” – it is ours, for all Nigerians.

We must put an end to the unjustifiable division amongst us. A renowned astronaut once noted that while orbiting in space, he could not identify the lines that divide a continent from the other, the lines that divide us are imaginary, they do not exist!

Let us embrace unity, only then can we progress as a nation and make Nigeria great, a Giant among comity of nations.

Fellow Nigerian, accept me for who I am, I am Yoruba, a Christian, a catholic and most importantly I am human. I accept you for who you are. Let's work together to make Nigeria great.





PART 2 - ACCEPTANCE AS INDIVIDUALS

Each time you look yourself in the mirror and say, "I wish I had a pointed nose, a fair skin......." etc God is there saying to you, I make no mistakes, this is how i want it.

Individuals need to accept their personality. You need to appreciate who you are only then can you be the best you are created to be. The great philosopher Aristotle once said, "Man know thyself". One of my interpretation to this charge is, "Man accept thyself".

Until a man accept his strength, weaknesses only then can he make the best of his abilities.

Some individuals suffer low self-esteem as a result of not accepting who they are. Some people complain about their appearance, where they are from etc as a result they feel inferior to others who appear to have the looks, background they crave for.

If the "paintings" above describes you, I bring you goodnews, "You are the best of your kind", you should be proud about this, isnt it? I also have to sound this note of warning, if you refuse to accept who you are, you will end up chasing shadows.

I charge you to look yourself in the mirror, embrace who God created you to be. Look forward to each day with enthusiasm and be the best you can be!

Culture › You Shall Eat The Fruits Of Your Labour - Blessing, Advice, Charge Or A Curse? by Appswheel(op): 7:18pm On Jul 30, 2014
When a Pastor pronounces the words “You shall eat the fruit of your labour” during a church service, you are likely to jump up, scream Amen to the high heavens with your hands lifted up.

I think it is more than a prayer. To me it says, your actions and inactions count. An individual can lose his/her fruit of labour to Ignorance.

If a “labour” is invested in sowing inedible, unrewarding fruits, imagine what the harvest will be?

My advice, when you labour, Labour positively, productively. What do you spend your time on? Your Finances? It is important you plan, evaluate what you do with them, the harvest would be sweet if wisely sown, otherwise the fruit can be bitter.

When next you attend a church service, and the pastor shouts, You shall eat the fruits of your labour, what will you do? Shout Amen or think twice……………?
Politics › Re: A Contrast: Stealing Vs Corruption by Appswheel(op): 7:00pm On Jul 29, 2014
macpetrus: Stealing “simply means to take something that belongs to someone else illegally or without the owner’s permission”.

While “corruption refers to dishonest exploitation of power for personal gain.
I hope you can see the connection between the two. when an individual in a position of authority use dishonest means or "exploitation" to steal- what is that called?
Let me add that not all corrupt act is dishonest. people wey de find job go sabi this wan, you go submit CV for office, na security man them say make you give. As you wan commot there you give then security money make e take buy Minerals - what do you call that?

Finally, all bribery related offence na corruption. from offering bribe to police, the person wey they give am and the person wey the collect am they corrupt. Woman wey they take bribe to give sex dey corrupt.................omo d list long tire. Macpetrus no they define corruption as simply o.... The thing long o...
Politics › A Contrast: Stealing Vs Corruption by Appswheel(op):
I learnt that President Goodluck Jonathan during a media chat with journalists said that some members of his cabinet members STEAL, but insists that they are not corrupt.

Is STEALING different from CORRUPTION? In the course of helping my little cousin with her take home assignment, I did a little research on Corruption and decided to contrast it with stealing.

I found out that stealing is a sub set of corruption, with the political landscape of Nigeria in mind, I came to the conclusion that ALL STEALING ACT IS CORRUPTION BUT NOT ALL CORRUPT ACT IS STEALING.

It also became obvious that most Nigerians are corrupt.

I recommend that a retreat on corruption should be held for Public officials and heads of top private organisations. Amongst other things, the retreat should educate them on the meaning of corruption,its consequence and how to repent from the act.

Stealing in its simplest term is to take the property of another without right or permission.

Corruption is defined as the abuse of public office for private gain. Transparency International defines it as "the abuse of entrusted power for private gain".

The methods of Corruption include

BRIBERY
The improper use of gifts and favours in exchange for personal gain. The types of favours given are diverse and include money, gifts, sexual favours, company shares, entertainment, employment and political benefits. The personal gain that is given can be anything from actively giving preferential treatment to having an indiscretion or crime overlooked.

EMBEZZLEMENT, THEFT AND FRAUD
Embezzlement and theft involve someone with access to funds or assets illegally taking control of them. Fraud involves using deception to convince the owner of funds or assets to give them up to an unauthorized party.

Examples include the misdirection of company funds into "shadow companies" (and then into the pockets of corrupt employees), the skimming of foreign aid money, scams and other corrupt activity.

EXTORTION AND BLACKMAIL
While bribery is the use of positive inducements for corrupt aims, extortion and blackmail centre around the use of threats. This can be the threat of violence or false imprisonment as well as exposure of an individual's secrets or prior crimes.

This includes such behavior as an influential person threatening to go to the media if they do not receive speedy medical treatment (at the expense of other patients), threatening a public official with exposure of their secrets if they do not vote in a particular manner, or demanding money in exchange for continued secrecy.

"CORRUPT GAINS" of Corruption.

Abuse of discretion
Favoritism, nepotism and clientelism

Favouritism, nepotism and clientelism involve the favouring of not the perpetrator of corruption but someone related to them, such as a friend, family member or member of an association. Examples would include hiring a family member to a role they are not qualified for or promoting a staff member who belongs to the same political party as you, regardless of merit.

Now that you are done reading this piece, I believe you are in position to convince and not confuse Mr. President, that Stealing is Corruption.

A company won a contract to supply furniture to a leading Oil and Maritime company. They were out of stock and sub-contracted the job to another company who charged 100,000 naira for the supply.

Before sending their final quotes to the client, they added 5% VAT fee and 20% as their profit for the transaction. How much was their final quote?
