Crime › Re: Coffins Bearing The Dead Bodies Of Indonesian Drug Convicts Get Buried (photos) by eleojo23: 12:28pm On Apr 29, 2015
Very saddening.
These people must have wished that they never indulged in the crime in the first place, but it was already too late. It shows us that we may not always get a second chance to correct our mistakes hence we must all be careful about every choice we make knowing that there will be consequences.

This is really saddening.
They must have felt remorse and repented while in prison. It's a lesson to all: the way of crime always leads to unpleasant consequences.

Christianity Etc › Re: Buhari Must Not Near Aso Rock For Now; Fayose Will Go To Jail- Prophet Tibetan by eleojo23: 7:37pm On Apr 28, 2015
People should stop all this talk about Buhari dying in office.
I think it is time to get over the outcome of the general elections and focus on praying for and lending our support to the incoming administration. It is our collective loss if they fail.
So let's wish the next govt success and pray that they do the right things that will help to move the country forward.
Webmasters › Re: Internet Crocodile Browser Developed By Osine & Anesi, Nigerian Teenagers by eleojo23:
The product of a supportive and conducive environment.
There are many people with a lot of potentials but because of lack of support and a conducive environment, they never get to put those potentials to use.

It is because of this that some people run to other countries where they will be able to use those potentials. You can't blame or criticize them for that. They are simply looking for a place where they will be able to do what they have passion for.
We must learn to appreciate and maximise the abilities and strengths that each individual possess by setting up structures and environments that will enable everyone to function at their best.

Any society that can do this, will be the envy of the world.

Marriage is a school where you get your certificate on admission even before you write any exam.

God bless you for saying the truth thou we still need development in our capital Awka .
Enugu is beautiful.
Yeah. A little decongestion of some areas in Awka. And I think some of the roads are quite narrow which leads to hold ups sometimes (speaking based on the parts I've been to). I believe the govt will look into that.
Politics › Re: Alhassan Rejects Taraba Governorship Election Results, Calls It Daylight Robbery by eleojo23:
The APC simply doesn't know how to handle defeat. They behave like spoilt kids who think that the world revolves around them. If they don't get what they want, they begin to protest.

They need a few lessons on good sportsmanship.
Travel › Re: Tell Us The Best Places To Live In Nigeria And Why by eleojo23:
Enugu city. Quiet and not so expensive like other cities. The city is generally well planned and beautiful except for some parts but it's only a matter of time before those places get properly developed.
I don't live there presently but have spent some time there and I visit there often.
I look forward to owning a house there. It's a good place to raise a family.

I would have mentioned Abuja since it's the capital of Nigeria but I feel that the city is too expensive for nothing (blame it on the excess money flowing in that city). Spent some months there and I just didn't like the place. Better to go and spend little money in a place like Enugu where I'll really be happy than to earn big and still spend much in Abuja with little satisfaction.

Anambra is also a good state to live in if you are looking for a state where development (especially infrastructure) is decentralized. There is hardly any remote village in that state. Most of the towns and villages have modern buildings and good roads with proper road signs. Kudos to their govt and the private individuals who have helped to bring development to their people.

But in all, Enugu city is my choice.

Disclaimer: The Nigerian govt and her people shall bear no responsibility for whatever happens to Mr. Adams while in South Africa .

However, this disclaimer shall be disregarded if it is later proven that he went there with the backing of the federal government.

But from now till otherwise proven, the disclaimer stands.

I doubt if people will stop patronizing MTN because of these attacks. MTN is just everywhere you go. (no pun intended)

They lost because nobody has monopoly of success. That's how life operates. You win sometimes and you lose sometimes no matter how many times you've won in the past.
Politics › Re: Xenophobia: BBC Recalls The Famous ''Ghana Must Go'' Policy Of The Nigerian Govt by eleojo23:
It was Shehu Shagari and it was an official order given to them to leave.

The former President Shehu Shagari flushed out thousands of illegal immigrants from the ECOWAS sub-region who had turned Nigeria into one big training camp for criminals. Ghanaians were more in number.

Nigerians did not slaughter Ghanaians on the streets the way the south Africans are doing to foreigners now. They allowed them to leave quietly.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Zulu King Changes Tone And Calls For End To SA Attacks On Foreigners by eleojo23:
With these attacks going on, the South Africans are prepping a time bomb that will bring down their country. In fact, the timer is already counting down and approaching zero unless they cut the red wire on time.

Sports › Re: South Africa To Organise Two Friendlies To Fight Xenophobia by eleojo23:
Will it be played in south Africa? That would be mass murder. Those guys are high on their xenophobia-inducing drugs. They can go to any length.

Organizing a friendly match is not the solution to this. I think most south Africans need reorientation or even rehabilitation. It's more of a psychological problem.
Politics › Re: Saraki Tells Buhari: 'Declaration Of Assets Can't Stop Corruption' by eleojo23:
People keep saying let them declare their assets, throw them in jail etc. but how will that stop corruption especially in low places?
It goes to show that when people talk of corruption, they only think about politicians.
Celebrities › Re: Igbo Leaders A Disgrace – Etcetera by eleojo23:
He may be right on the failure of the Igbo to join hands together and speak with one voice.
But greed is not exclusively an Igbo thing. Greed is what has robbed Nigeria of meaningful progress. Every tribe has greedy people.

If there is anything that the Ebola and all other disease outbreaks has taught us, it is the fact that health sector needs to be properly equipped to handle emergency health concerns.
Business › Re: Nigeria Wants To Shutdown South African Businesses Over Xenophobic Attacks by eleojo23: 4:37pm On Apr 17, 2015
Even though I don't like seeing things degenerate to an eye for an eye state, sometimes one needs to deal with some issues with an iron hand.

It's a pity that they repay Nigeria with evil even when they benefit from us.

I don't blame them, rather I blame Nigeria for depending so much on services from other nations.

Politics › Re: Aftermath Of Elections!!! Two Men Divorce Wives For Voting For Apc by eleojo23: 1:41pm On Apr 16, 2015
Election is like a football match where people take sides but in the end, one side must win.

It's funny the way some people are reacting to the results of this election as if the winners will hold the positions for life. It's just for four years and if the masses are not satisfied, they will vote them out.

You know, you can just condemn the act without bringing a tribe into the issue.
Politics › Re: I’m Not Seeking Asylum Anywhere, Says Diezani by eleojo23:
It's funny that some people think that Buhari has been elected as a military head of state. Well, he has been elected as a democratic president.
So don't expect him to come and dictate and throw people in jail as he likes.
In fact, he has told you himself that he will not do that.

Such approach to tackling corruption is merely a reactive one and doesn't really address the problem squarely. Tackling corruption requires proactive measures such as pulling down old systems that have allowed corruption to thrive and raising up new systems that promote transparency so that anyone who intends to practice corruption will be handicapped.
