1) You are no longer popular in your office. 2) Avoid going to your former office without invitation. Where it's absolutely necessary inform an officer of your visit so that you can be received. 3) Know that not everyone liked you while at work & now have an opportunity to snob you. 4) Keep in touch with your coursemates as you grow in retirement because some Pharaohs in Egypt may not know your Joseph. 5) Attend celebration of coursemates. Its always a reunion with lots of fun. 6) Only a few of the people you assisted (including family members) will come around to see you often.To others you have nothing to offer. 7)Plan your days & follow your plan. Sometimes when you look at your uniform with all the medals, you have a feeling of emptiness. Get yourself occupied. Traveling is great, visit places of interest and enjoy your travels. 9) Eat right, enjoy your meals but down excessive sugar, salt, fats and oils. 10) Do your medical check-up even when you feel healthy. Enjoy your retirement.
NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
Build your own house where you will live in your old age. Build businesses that will feed you in your old age.
Create conveniences that will engage you in your old age.
Build friendship and goodwill that will serve you in your old age.
Right now, start to be relevant in your mosque or Church and community so you could be reckoned with in your old age.
* Old age could be very lonely and agonising for men who did not plan for it. * May you not become a liability on your children in your old age. * May your children not wish you an early death when they can't manage you again in your old age.
An old age without penny in your pocket is a slow, agonising death sentence!
Be warned now...! There are three categories of people you cannot do without as we are growing older, your family, people in your place of worship and childhood friends, who include your Old School mates.
Friends, take it or live it, at 60 and above, loneliness kills because the children you are working hard for now will go their way to raise their own immediate families and pursue their own destinies, just as we did now. At that time it's these people in these 3- categories that take away loneliness and keep your company.
At 50 years and above, you have 10 to 15 years of active working life.
Vickym1: Boko haram and fulani are in the northern region causing so much mayhem and soldiers are in South East chasing shadows.. What a world we live in
Ozinlex: Good CSR (corporate social responsibility) from him to my State as we hope to host his refinery, fertiliser plant and other yet to be revealed investment in AkwaIbom
Check how much Akwa Ibom is contributing to the federation, check how much oil income coming from Akwa Ibom yearly. Fulani milking you of your oil resources, raping, killing your mother, sister, aunt and you are here happy to receive part of your money as a donation from them.
When they finish killing all the police officers I wonder where those ibos cheering them will run to when arm robbers and kidnappers start dealing with them.
I wonder who are the advisers to this ESN/ipob organization.
Don't worry about that.
"When they finish killing all the police officers" Some of the members of the ESN/IPOB will take up the police and military job in the new Nation
The US empire won't help the Fulani to fight the Yoruba and Biafra Nation if that is the purpose of the invitation.
Let's check history:
1. Years ago, Britain came in, helped the Fulani to fight the rest and recognized the Sultan of Sokoto 2. 1970 Russia came in, helped the Fulani to suppress Biafra while Yoruba elites remain slave to the Fulani 3. Again, Fulani invited America to fight against the Yoruba and Biafra.
Wake up guys the plan is not to fight bandits and Boko Haram.
Remember, Bandits and Boko Haram are their children, no parents will want to kill his/her blood.
In 1984 Buhari was the head of state that deported Ghanaians, most of them were dumped at the Benin Republic border without food.
The ZOO military confiscates their properties, raped the women, and kills some.
Very unfortunate that the youths are being punished for the atrocity of the old fools
Daveambition: Her country no honour it citizen, even neighboring countries no value us. We are not recognize as sane humans. Imagine Togo,Cameron,Ghana,Benin Republic etc labelling us evil. Buhari make we kuku split this con3 nau, i beg U.
When the country divides, he and his family will be the losser. The oil blocks will return to the owner and those that play active roles now will control the businesses.
Rossinkup: It will lead to greater military presence on the streets.
I also have it on good authority that the military is in a big recruitment drive right now, to significantly boost its numbers in the face of current security challenges.
So if you're looking for work, this is probably a good time to hand in your application to join the military.
They are recruiting northerners to fight the Oduduwas and Biafrans boys
"Banditry is a type of organized crime committed by outlaws typically involving the threat or use of violence. A person who engages in banditry is known as a bandit and primarily commits crimes such as extortion, robbery, and murder, either as an individual or in groups"
Na wa, what will Akpan not see inside the kitchen?
Job-hunters are running to Abuja. Contract chasers are running to Abuja. Ashaawos are running to Abuja, Politicians are leaving their States and running to Abuja. Diplomats are running to Abuja.
Now even Boko Haram wants to leave Sambisa and run to Abuja.
They are getting closer. We need them to take care of things over there.
