My able Honorable, this Coronavirus we are talking about. Early decisions save lives My own early decision was 2 things:
#1 Never Really on Government for Anything --------- because DISAPPOINTMENT is their middle name. The Federal Disappointment Government of Nigeria, F[D]GN
#2 Enter Matrix, Carry my matter go meet the people on the other side of Life, to the Council of Gods that rule the Universe, to the ancient Ones that formed the world with one breath. I don go lie down beg Jehovah, put my life and that of my loved ones for his hands, collect his Mercy before i come back here to this 6D world.

You are a wise Man.

Well, lets wait and see, too early to make any decisions now.

Blood Diamonds

So, I finally saw this movie after almost a decade plus. Di Caprio was 10/10 in his performance, unarguably one of the Hall of Fame member of Hollywood.

What can I say about Africa? From Congo to Nigeria, to Sudan, to Somalia, to Liberia, to Rwanda, to Sierra Leone, even to South Africa, Kenya, Ivory Coast and d list goes on. I hope we have finally learnt our lessons that war leaves destruction and poverty when we allow it into our homes.

To the developed countries, they must stop funding these wars tru illegal arms purchase and d struggle for mineral welath.

Man unkind to Mankind.

Yes you're right power is the backbone of operations it's crazy doing business in Nigeria for that singular reason. Where were you guys based?

Lagos (Gbagada) then we moved to Ojota, then Ketu, then Ikorodu finally stopped at Sagamu.

Tomorrow one innocent Man will marry her and he wont know why she cant conceive, he wont know why things are so difficult for him, he wont know that his wife once killed a child.

Let me tell u guys out there, if u get married to a woman whose spiritual energy is dead or very low, be prepares for whatever comes your way.

Many of these Ladies are light weight, thats why you never obtain favor from d lord from d start till the end, because u didnt pick a wife, you picked a slut.

Why do you think Jesus had to come tru a virgin?
Many of you will give birth to paper weight kids.

May God not lead us to women of doom.

Murtala Muhammed, surely one of the heroes of this country


Murtala Muhammed’s 198 days of action

ARGUABLY, late General Murtala Ramat Mohammed, Nigeria’s fourth head of state, is one of the country’s most popular rulers.

He came to power on a promising note, showed readiness to deliver and was taken out of power when the ovation was loudest. The 198 days he spent in office were eventful and loaded with activities that strategically shaped and are still shaping the affairs of the nation 40 years after.

His low profile and flamboyance-shunning approach to governance; zero tolerance for graft, ineptitude and laxity; and resolution of issues with despatch, which has come to be known as ‘military alacrity,’ endeared to him to most Nigerians but also won for him, strident critics and enemies, who opposed his style. Murtala Mohammed mounted the saddle of leadership on July 30, 1975 but was killed less than seven months later in an abortive coup of February 13, 1976.

But before his assassination, Murtala Mohammed had left his footprints on the sands of time. Crucial decisions Murtala Muhammed Benefiting from the toppling of General Yakubu Gowon, on account of failure to meet the expectations of Nigerians, reneging on returning power to civilians, ruling the country without consultation, neglecting the armed forces and being insensitive to the yearnings of Nigerians among others, Murtala Mohammed had before him urgent and crucial decisions to take.

And that he did with despatch in an unmistakable manner. Beginning with his first broadcast, Mohammed announced a series of initiatives, which he pursued with a dizzying speed. The initial decisions include: Retirement of Gowon, then serving military governors and some members of the Armed Forces with immediate effect; reorganizing the structure of the Federal Government into three organs – the Supreme Military Council, National Council of States and Federal Executive Council; promise to review the political programme and to set up panels on the question of new states and the federal capital; and cancellation of the controversial 1973 population census and reversion to the 1963 census among others. He was to follow up with more concrete steps.


He announced plans for an orderly return to civilian rule by October 1, 1979. He appointed a 50-man Constitution Drafting Committee headed by Chief Rotimi Williams, to hammer out a new constitution for the country in readiness for the return to civil rule. Panels were set up to advise on assets investigation of some former public officers, abandoned properties in the three Eastern States, the location of the Federal Capital and creation of more states. The administration announced a ‘low profile policy for public officers and he chose to stay at his home in Ikoyi rather than move into the more fortified Dodan Barracks residence.

He occasionally startled observers by showing up at many places such as the Polo ground without protection. In the weeks leading to his assassination he was warned to be more cautious but he brushed aside all admonitions. A simple leader with populist ideas, Murtala Mohammed had no speeding convoys. He refused heavily-armed security details and preferred to stay in the traffic with his ‘fellow Nigerians’ until it eased. Creation of seven states: He set up a panel headed by Justice Ayo Irikefe on the creation of seven more states (Niger, Bauchi, Gongola, Benue, Ogun, Imo and Bendel) to the 12 existing ones on December 22, 1975.

The panel came up with a report which was utilized in the formation of new states in 1976. Making Abuja new Federal Capital Territory: To give the country a befitting capital as Lagos was becoming over-crowded, Mohammed set in motion plans to build a new Federal Capital Territory. He set up a panel headed by Justice Akinola Aguda, which chose Abuja ahead of other proposed locations. On February 3, 1976, 10 days before he was killed, he made an announcement that the Federal Capital would be moved to a ‘federal territory of about 8,000 square kilometres in the central part of the country.’ Civil service purge He removed top federal and state officials to break links with the Gowon regime and to restore public confidence in the Federal Government.

He went on sack more than 10,000 public officials and employees on account of age, health, incompetence, malpractice or corruption. The purge affected the civil service, judiciary, police and armed forces, diplomatic service, public corporations, and universities. Some officials were tried for graft. Demobilisation of 100,000 troops: Although unpopular within the military, Mohammed embarked on the demobilization of 100,000 troops from the swollen ranks of the armed forces. Implemented diarchy: Mohammed also operated diarchical system of government by incorporating civilians.

Twelve of the 25 ministerial posts on the new Federal Executive Council went to civilians even though the cabinet was secondary to the executive Supreme Military Council. Entrenching unitarism, media control:

The Federal Government took over the operation of the country’s two largest newspapers – Daily Times ans New Nigerian, made broadcasting a federal monopoly, and brought remaining state-run universities under federal control. Other achievements: Murtala Mohammed initiated a comprehensive review of the Third National Development Plan. He announced that his government would encourage the rapid expansion of the private sector into areas dominated by public corporations.

He reappraised foreign policy, stressing a “Nigeria first” orientation in line with OPEC price guidelines that was to the disadvantage of other African countries. Nigeria became “neutral” rather than “non-aligned” in international affairs. The shift in orientation became apparent with respect to Angola. Nigeria had worked with the OAU to bring about a negotiated reconciliation of the warring factions in the former Portuguese colony, but late in 1975 Murtala Muhammed announced Nigeria’s support for the Soviet-backed Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola, citing South Africa’s armed intervention on the side of the rival National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA).

Dreams and projects The realignment strained relations with the United States, which argued for the withdrawal of Cuban troops and Soviet advisers from Angola. In October, the Nigerian Air Force took delivery of Soviet-built aircraft that had been ordered under Gowon. However, he did not live long enough to realise most of his lofty dreams and projects. Murtala Mohammed was killed, aged 37, along with his Aide-De-Camp (ADC), Lieutenant Akintunde Akinsehinwa in his black Mercedes Benz saloon car on, February 13, 1976 in an abortive coup attempt led by Lt. Col Buka Suka Dimka, when his car was ambushed while en route his office at Dodan Barracks, Lagos.

Yes I am, I'm the co-founder and CEO of a recycling company. We specialise in PET bottles for now with eyes on expansion to UBC (cans) and other recyclables on the long run

Thats nice, we were also into it but, power (light) collapsed it all.

Lucrativress:
yh I'm working on that
just presently not the priority for now

Lol. Priority? Its not a big deal, just a little adjustment here and there.

I dont know of a Pastor, not 1 that is boring or has no sense of humor.

Lucrativress:
Mayorkun didn't sing about my set in his song
Set awon "boring gehs Geng"
we care less geng

You can be a good gal and not be boring.

TheTourist:
brainz360 with that amount you can get shares in my plastic recycling company (which myself and Frodd teamed up together to establish) with you onboard that will give us financial, social and environmental leverage to make tons of money while saving the planet from waste. PM me for further info

Lucrativress:
Trust me when you find a good woman wanting to be a Baby Daddy would be the last thing on your mind
but first work on yourself to be the kind of person you want in your life or else you might just keep attracting your kind

Be a Baby Daddy?....... I forbid such over my life.

Lucrativress:
Good character is an attribute on its own and doesn't have a specific association but is like a close friend to virtue,which means
you can find good characters in more numbers of virtually upright ladies than non-virtually upright ladies

I get now and I completely agree.

For me, those slay nonsense doesnt even come first, its her character that I'm looking at from d very 1st day.

Lucrativress:
characters differ for sure
everybody have good and bad characters in them
The degree of one over the other is the thing
good and character just have to be joined together, being morally upright comes with a level of goodness to people
you can see a slay mama with a good character
And see a decent lady with a bad character, good character is an individual trait that's,just that this trait is has a degree to where it's found
you can see more good character decent ladies to good character indecent ladies
Good character is like a force that's being vibed through moral uprightness
A virtuous woman mostly come with a good character cause virtue is like a copulation of positive behavioural attributes

Sincerely, I'm lost. Please summarize.

mrvitalis:

Lucrativress:
There are still good girls around just that they might not have it all
some are a bit socially awkward
Too bad most men are unconsciously looking for a ready made woman who has all the aspects of her life covered, those slayers are just sharp witted ladies that has seen the blindness in most of you men and using it to their advantage, you'll keep coming across them till you understand not all good ladies have what you're unconsciously seeking
Most of this unconsciousness has to do with sexual prowess and fashion sense
You have the work to do there
She's boring(upright) it's your job to mend her to your standards because ladies are mendable

What about character?

What do you want to inform your people about her ❓

That she is a flirt or she has gotten a better man than you

Look guy, something is missing in your marriage

Seat her down and find out from her what the problem is

It could be lack of communication

It could be lack of respect, love and absence of peace

It could be lack of attention or affection

Women are like flowers, if you attend to them, they will blossom to your happiness

I am not going to blame her yet until you talk with her

If the sweet words she is hearing from that gist partner is what is glueing her to the guy, start yours

Men are able to deceive women and get into them through their sweet mouth

If you are hard on a woman, she must, I repeat, she must look for a guy that is soft to suppress your hardness

And if you are unfortunate she gets sex satisfaction out side, then consider her gone because you have lost her to another man or men

How old are you?

I really want to know if I could excuse you from your comment because you just spoke like a 16 year old.

Emotionally and psychologically, you are not fit to be in a relationship.

Liposure:
BLACK HAWK DOWN

You just seeing it?

Also, dont follow any member of your interview panel or the MD on any social media site before appointment letter is given.

After an offer is made and you are not comfortable with it, dont sign it until you get audience with the person in charge.

Even if the person is not on seat (offline or online) dont still sign.

You are a good writer, only the title of the story shows why.

sonnie10:
After reading all the post, I am even more confused than I was starting.

In conclusion, just do your best and be your self. Let someone else be themselves.

My Brother, if u follow Nairaland and their philosophies, u go lost o!

Follow your instinct always, it never fails.

EVILFOREST:
MY FRIEND, just know now that EVERY LADY insults.
If only Pastors can tell you how their wives insult them.
Even a Lady with zero account can rubbish you at any slightest opportunity.
I have seen Nigerian Ladies who do nothing to generate revenue, insult their BOYFRIENDS who work hard to make ends meet.
Every LADY wants to control her man.
If possible covert him to HAND SANITIZER.

MEMORY VERSE:
Since BOTH Classes of LADY can insult you at any time.
It's better to be insulted by a HARDWORKING LADY who got ideas, if possible from a wealthy home.
I have said my Own.

You funny
