This man use to be very humble before Patience Jonathan empowered him and he becomes what he is today because he is a governor.

Power changes people o, makes some people talk anyhow as if there isn’t God.

Wike was never humble, he only added drama to his thuggery

.... If you are going to work outside, you need a different approach,

First you have to wake up at least two hours before work, then its all about mental aclamatization.
You need at least a warm bath, not cold bath in any way, you need to condition your mind that, that is your morning. You would also need a hot cup of Lipton preferably two bags but this time with sugar this is because your body needs energy, I will explain later. Avoid any thing food drink especially bournvita as it releases a hormone that relaxes you.
You might have to go for tea breaks every three hours till your body masters the night routine, Avoid getting yourself cold, your body needs to be warm so that you don't become fatigued that is where the cold tea comes in, if you get cold , you will loose energy and find it difficult staying awake.

I advise you get a thick sweater, also look for something to chew on, I go with orbit and once in a while Ginger. This is very important.

The most important times are around mid night, when your body starts succumbing to nature, this is normal, take a walk around and get busy, in about 15 to 20 mins you should be fine, if not take a power nap of about five minutes if you can, it will help boost you up.
The next is around 5 am, when the morning dew starts settling in and you are awaiting your reliever, you can't do much about this, you just have to fight it mentally, and keep yourself warm. With time , you will get used to it.

One challenge you will face is adjusting your sleep pattern to daytime.
Don't sleep too early or you will wake too early and find it difficult to maintain a positive night shift, also don't sleep two late or you won't get enough quality sleep.

Falling asleep will be another challenge, just take a cup of warm milk, tumeric or cough drops whichever works for you.

Hope this helps, to you and millions of night workers , who find it impossible to get through the night.

very nice and thoroughly written, I will try this.

FalseProphet1:
I see more attacks on security operatives in the south East, I see policemen putting on muftis to in order to walk freely in the south, I see Nnamdi Kanu being released this year even though buhari said he wouldn't be released.

I see Buhari using him (Kanu) as a bargain chip to keep Nigeria United, I see Nigeria breaking up by 2023, cos the masses have suffered enough.

This I have seen.

U and ur useless seeing
I see u almost blind due to too much seeing of rubbish

This I have seen

God1000:
are you serious, what's the role of government then? An oil rich country like Nigeria should have world class infrastructure.
Look at Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other oil producing countries

Nigeria is not an oil rich country

Kings999:
All of us will soon die, I don't see anything wrong in people defending there land...

You are just a noise maker and online miscreant

OdumegwuOjukwu:
All the politicians are disgruntled, and many of them are criminal. All I'm saying is that rather than they burn down the state, Hope Uzodinma, who is currently unable to run the state should resign for peace to reign. This is especially the case since his position as governor cannot be explained by any meaningful logic. If he had problem with other politician in Imo State, he should settle it with them. For goodness sake, he's not the first politician that will have problem with other politician in Imo State, let alone in Nigeria. What is his security vote for? To buy Rolls Royce?

Don't forget also that he has blood on his hand. His invitation of the military against IPOB/ESN in the state is also part of the problem. Even if Imo State doesn't have herdsmen crisis, what is wrong in preparing? Wasn't the case that it is the unprepared state that are suffering? What exactly is Hope Uzodinma's contribution to Imo State security other than inviting military to terrorize the state? Uzodinma's action is the cause of insecurity in the state, directly or indirectly. Dude is just going about making enemies all over the places.

I repeat my call that Hope Uzodinma, the Ogboso 1 of Imo State should resign for peace to reign.

So he should resign and set a precedent that when bad forces come after you, you run instead of tackling it.
Uzodinmas victory is the same with that of Bayelsa both declared by supreme Court, hold PDP and their cohorts responsible for uzodinma coming out as a Governor, they miscalculated by a long margin.
As for the current situation in Imobwhen those fueling it are through, they too won't be able to return to Imo state.

CocoaOla:
APC had lied too much for too long. Time to tell them, "enough is enough". They make fools of well meaning Nigerians. I won't take it any longer. More money has been made available to Buhari through loans, aids and the devaluation of the Naira than GEJ ever had.


Nigeria in 2015 vs Nigeria in 2020

Petrol price: N87 vs N165.50
Dollar: N200 vs N485
Rice: N8,500 vs N31, 000
Electricity tariff: N14.23 vs N82.33
GDP: $550.6bn vs $506.54b
Per capital income: $2,930.43 vs $2,202
Vat: 5% vs 7.5%
Stamp duty: N0 - N50/1k
Inflation 8% vs 18.96%/22.9%

Hope you will have sense now fools

You know the problem with you guys is that not only are you guys myopic and mischievous, you are also half educated.

I agree that APC has done a lot of things very wrong, but PDP was worse.

While things might have appeared cheaper during PDP the reality was we were being wasteful very wasteful.
How much was generated during the Arab spring during oil windfall, how much has been generated now, we can only be truthful to ourselves, PDP wasted Nigeria

nedu666:
Liar. Which radio stations were working half day, which airports were closed nation wide, who told you buhari gave states bailout in 2015.

Stop being mischievous, we were all alive then, a simple Google search can help you

https://qz.com/africa/411384/nigeria-is-shutting-down-for-business-thanks-to-its-worst-ever-fuel-shortages/

CSTRR:
Yes, the situation was dire, but it wouldn't have been as dire as this.

Not under the PDP.

No it would have been worse.
Before PDP handed over radio stations were working half days , airports closing Nationwide and govenors owing salaries for over 4 months.
The first thing this administration did was to shell bail out to various states,.

What do you think PDP could have done differently without access to funds

CSTRR:
And the solution to looting is to bastardise the economy with useless and unstable policies.?

Isn't it a shame that despite the huge looting, every indices of the economy then was significantly better than what it is now?

Isn't it a big shame.?

What the APC should have done was to reduce looting, divert more resources to infrastructure, introduce more efficiency into the system, and let the macroeconomic policy of the PDP keep running itself.

It would have been great.

Instead, Buhari fixed politicians into critical federal position, turned nepotism to state policy, shut the borders, wage war on Nigerian fintech, and many other economic abominations.

No matter what APC could or could not have done, Nigeria was bound to be in a mess, our population explosion coupled with our dwindling income could never have been synchronized even if we had Albert Einstein as president.
Let's stop deceiving ourselves.

lacum:
From your analysis you are even shooting yourself on the foot.
1999-2015=16years but only #67 increase
2015-2021=6years and #68 increase was added. You want to tell us that the inflation in Nigeria in the past 6 years was higher than the one of 16 years before 2015?

I guess you guys quoting him don't understand the use of paragraphs.
Buharis tenure and PDP tenure are in two different paragraphs.
Going by his analogy PDP left Nigeria 200times worse than the met it, which is completely true.
Omokri is just a useless hypocrite.

saphiere:
And told you I didn't read it Mr. mind reader? And I think you need a brain surgery if you can't understand my post.
A lady sets her boyfriend's house ablaze due to domestic misunderstanding. Can't what I mentioned earlier lead to the misunderstanding? Or you think boyfriends don't rape their girlfriends?

As far as am concessioned you need a psychiatrist as soon as possible, you are far gone.

Am not surprised, PDP is a scam so is Fayose

People have really betrayed my trust

funkybroyouknow:
If nigeria had leaders with vision we would use be using this same solar for electricity generation for the national grid

What is stopping you from being a leader

Even people sleeping with dil do and cucumber are complaining.

This is one of the reasons I keep on insisting Nigerian government has no business doing business.
They should call different valuers both foreign and local, set up an independent panel from various groups to audit the valuers report. Open a bid for a company to invest in the maintenance and another bid for another couple to manage.
The job of government should only be to regulate.
When government does business it scares off investors and kills competition.

ifytrik:
I hope he knows that his father and other northern politicians made those monsters they refer to as bandit today, he should complaining please, when they were shouting sai A FI C sai baba upandan did we complain? They should continue enjoying the fruit of their labour jor.

Sometimes you people use meaningless memes to support your post

dederocs:
Am educating you and others here, it is part of the movement and process. Fight for what benefit you, have sense.

Chairman I am already comfortable as I am, my problem is not the government, my problem is with individuals that have entitlement mentality. I have lost more to private citizens than I can ever loose to the government.
So talk about yourself.
Think about what you can do for your country not what your country can do for you.
Politicians are not up to 0.5 percent of the whole NIGERIA it is therefore a shame if 99.5 percent can do nothing about their actions other than ranting.
Try and build yourself up B4 you think about building others, because All I can get from you is high-handedness and chest beating

dederocs:
You miss the point, we are not talking about capitalism here. USA/UK the fathers of capitalism subsidise food, healthcare, and give housing/shelters to their people, are we a better capitalist state than them?
People like you have a servant mentality, you see the politicians as people who deserve to enjoy the nation's largese, and you servant just keep paying him via taxes, and completely rejecting your rights, and previledges as a citizen , but in reality, politicians are workers of the people, to help manage and disburse national revenue. You really are dumb, if the people do not benefit from national revenue via welfare and subsidies, then politicians and their cronies will circumvent the revenue. We are talking about elected public office holders and the people. The revenue belongs to us all, we all must enjoy it, dummy this is my point. The President, governors etc, are not the only one eligible to enjoy national revenue. Take a class in government and learn, you sound ignorant, am only replying you for the sake of education.

What is the percentage of tax paid in the US and UK compared to Nigeria.
What is the revenue generated.
You are comparing Apples to lime.
If you are so pained about the status quo , start a movement and fight to change the narrative, don't sit down by your phone and become the embodiment of the book of Lamentations.
Stand up fight and stop complaining, if not you are worse than a servant you are a slave in multiple chains, mentally,physically don't emotionally.

dederocs:
you are a zombie...know this it is you against the politicians, in Egypt they protested when they increased bread price. I will cease to debate with you further, you iq really low, you have a servant mentality.

No you are the entitled one, and the zombie actually, who still believes we are in a socialist society.
After the protest, what happened, did the achieve anything, is Egypt or any Arab nation better off.
Guy the earlier you guys realize this is a capitalist country with winner takes it all, the better for you, stop looking to be spoon fed and go and latch on to people who will teach you how to run, this is NIGERIA and we all are HYPOCRITES over here.
Get that into your empty skull

dederocs:
Other countries subsidise products for their citizens as well, so the people have more disposable income, to run the economy. Read what i wrote carefully, they are efficient ways to run subsidies, government can work with banks, and coporations that reach all Nigerians, where every citizen is apportioned a quota, you can buy the smart card from your bank, and you get units as subsidy on specific amounts, each citizen will have monthly/quarterly units to use...let us think like homo sapiens, it is not rocket science, to correct the corrupt abnormalities that characterised our subsidy regime...with the right political will, and a smart e system, via chipped cards, that will work with filling station operators POS subsidies will be done right, and the value reaching the people, that it is intended for...you can not throw away the baby with the bath water. Subsidy can be done correctly, with the right political will, it is inefficiency of the ruling class, and connivance to selfishly enrich themselves that perpetuates the stealing of subsidise oil. We pay politicians to think and provide solutions, let us start looking for the smartest people, with the right intentions and motives to run this country. Proffer solutions, it is dumb for any citizen to reject social benefits, it is smarter to proffer solutions, rather than dumbly and happily paying more money for essential services. Think well.

In a country like Nigeria, it is better to subsidized services instead of goods.
Education and health are already being subsidised.
Subsidization of goods leads to wastage and is easily manipulated.

lexy2014:
Who I am isn't d subject of discussion. This is d question:

If u say "Aramco is State owned not state run", who runs Aramco?

You started on a wrong premises in this discussion.
Correct that then we can talk.
Otherwise it's good day for now

lexy2014:
Is it because it pays tax and remits profit to d Saudi govt that qualifies it as a private entity?

Take note of d word "public" in the screenshot

Public there is as in plc, when I said private I meant it was not a government institution.
Meaning private entities also have stake in it, Aramco is no more a Solely Saudi Owned entity and is not run like a government parastatal.
