Honestly, I respect the early missionaries, especially the Irish catholic missionaries that set their foot in the former eastern region. Totally dedicated and selfless unlike what we have now in the church. God bless all of them.

There's absolutely too much going on in that living room area. Less is more!!! The dining area looks like a different apartment all together compared to the jumble going on at the other part of the room. You want to decorate a floating shelf? follow the law of threes, not more than 3 items on a shelf, and the color tone?? Wack!!
We don't know what minimalist interior design means in this part of the world. Having many things in a space makes the place looks clogged up and space choked. E-money's house comes to mind with over design.

I love it minimal and rustic in nature and not all these over design work.

3 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE AN INTERIOR DESIGNER

A professional interior designer will allow your personality to shine while taking your lifestyle, space, and budget in consideration. It is important to hire a designer that you will enjoy working with. A great designer achieves more than a beautiful space, they change the way you live in your home.

Most of us see interior design as exclusively for the rich and famous or well-to-do. It may surprise you to find out there are some genuinely great reasons why you should hire an interior designer – here’s three.

Save costs.

While the cost of hiring a designer may seem like a lot up front, changing a room which doesn’t turn out how you imagine will be a lot more expensive. Good interior designers guide you through your entire project so you know exactly what the end result will look like. This way there’s no nasty surprises when your home is finally finished.

Add value.

An interior designer can add the wow factor to your home, which is a big deal when it comes to selling. A well presented, consistent design will set your home apart from the competition. The little extra pizzazz will only give buyers more reason to love your home, meaning more chance they’ll be willing to pay what you want for your property.

Open possibilities.

If you want to expand your design horizons and be pushed outside your comfort zone, start looking for an interior designer. Interior designers have ideas and solutions you may never think of. You’ll discover new colours, patterns and pieces of furniture you wouldn’t normally give a second glance. And guess what? You’ll love all of it!
Widen connections.

Kenya President Uhuru Kenyatta Formally received Prime Minister of the United Kingdom RT. Hon. Theresa May at State House, the first State Visit by a British PM in 30 years. The president and his wife Margaret hosted a State Banquet in honour of Prime Minister Theresa May at State House. "I am confident that our discussions today have deepened an already strong relationship #KenyaBritainRelations" - Uhuru Kenyatta.

Twenty new UK businesses to set shop in Kenya, British PM Theresa May
NAIROBI, 30th August 2018, (PSCU) — Visiting British Prime Minister Theresa May, today announced the entry of twenty new UK businesses in Kenya, a feat she termed as a clear demonstration of the confidence the British business community has in Kenya’s attractive investment environment.
Prime Minister Theresa May made the announcement at the Kenya-UK Business Forum held today at Strathmore University in Nairobi.
Our standard in this country is just too low. Even presidential lodge looks crude. See aesthetics and colorfulness. As some earlier said, see life every where. Pictures that came out during her visit to Nigeria were just dull and lifeless

Nigeria will always be a dumping ground. Sales is plummeting in Europe and they are looking for a ready market outside the European union . Being a non productive set of people that we are but with unquenchable taste for consumerism, the company cleverly found a fertile market in Nigeria. Kudos to their marketing team!

see how neat and tidy the environment is. A typical Nigeria building and environment would not boast of this type of detailing in landscaping and neatness.
Environmental neatness is something that has to be imbibed by Nigerians. We lack environmental consciousness and neatness. Look at our university environments and cities and you wonder how a decent people could be trained in that type of environment.
No matter how poor or rich you are, always ensure a neat and habitable environment. Children learn more when they are in a good environment and the brain connects well in a well greened environment. Once you see a picture taken abroad, you will instantly know and feel the cool serenity. But here, it is something else.

Education › Re: OAU students trapped following a downpour, today, in Ile Ife, Osun State (Photos by Focusmind: 10:15pm On Jul 29, 2018
Chei, Nigeria university environment! what type of graduates do you think would be produced from this kind of environment and setting? Not only OAU, go to other public universities and see how decrepit the environments look. As I said before, in education, especially quality education, learning environment matters a lot in shaping the graduate thinking faculty and value system.

Upper class and some middle class people have virtually taken their kids to study outside and I wont be an exception. Work hard so that your kids does not study in this kind of environment since our POLITICIANS have failed us!

Op, if what you meant by start - up is working for a one - man business in Nigeria, then forget it. Those benefits doesn't apply in Nigeria. You get those advantage if you're working for a one man tech start up in advanced countries. Working for some one-man start up businesses in Nigeria are nothing more than pure enslavement.

We have a very low standard in Nigeria when it comes to top quality finishing of a building. Our architects and builders are not creative. The same design and usual structure. Use the Beninoise ot Togolese to build and see aesthetics. Honestly, our builders are daft. No creativity. Same old design with block works and concrete everywhere

Totally agreed with you. He should take SAT and smash it and go straight to Stanford University or Yale. Stanford made me mad during my tour of the school in the mid 90"s. I didn't mind studying religion or even Igbo language there. As long as you are a graduate of Stanford university, you will be respected.

I haven't seen the PDP candidate make a statement or campaign. Everything has been Fayose. Even APC was mentioning his name at their rally. The guy is really an issue in Ekiti politics.

Career › Re: Help Make A Career Decision - Urgent!!! by Focusmind: 2:32pm On Jun 28, 2018
please don't try it. Most Nigerians will always want to leave. You already have a decent job. Work and earn experience. Experience is the most important consideration in the labor market now. Leave academics for now. Thousands have masters and are still begging for jobs. I have been there before you. Job, job, job and job still remains the best. Forget masters please. You can enroll for professional certifications. Ensure you are placed in a good department in the head office - Treasury, FINCON, International operations, Strategic planning, Corporate Services or Corporate banking.

Don't mind those already frustrated with the Nigeria situation. It is understandable for them to choose going out. The future is bright with your job which millions of graduate would gladly ask for.

Lastly, you are still young. As an African and working class lady, many working class are not fulfilled without marriage. The chances of you getting hooked up in Nigeria is far higher than US. A lot of unmarried Nigerian I know in US always ask for opportunity to come back to Nigeria to work, of which getting a suitor is one of the most important reason. They have worked in US for years being single because of staying far away from home. If you are from the East, you will understand. A lady came back from US to join one FMCG in their legal department after working for more than 8 years in US as an attorney with earnings higher than what the FMCG company is paying her. She finally got hooked and is happily married but still visit US for vacation.Some have gotten married to guys that are doing well in Nigeria and relocated to be with their hubby in Nigeria and look for job just because of marriage.

I did my masters and lived in the UK. Take my advice and move on with your new banking job in Nigeria. Don't think of going to US to waste that N15m. Some have finished and are running up and down doing one " per hour" jobs or the other.

Christianity Etc › Re: Three Catholic Priests Die In Anambra Community After Burning Of Shrines. Photos by Focusmind: 4:15pm On Jun 11, 2018
Africans and religion! Why not leave the traditionalists on their own? Did the traditionalist do them anything? Why destroy their place of worship? The early Irish/Christian missionaries did not tamper with the traditionalists. They worshipped side by side with the traditionalist and won some traditionalist over. Read/Watch "Things fall apart". If a white man comes now and take those idols to the UK museum, the so called crusaders and fathers will go to London and pay to see the traditionalist artifact in the museum. The thing is here with us and we don't take them as anything but an obstacle. People that are not successful always blame one traditionalist or god in the village for their predicament. Please leave the traditionalist alone to worship their gods. This shrine destruction of a thing is so common in the south east with their conservative Catholicism and Anglicanism. Any priest that wants to rise to prominence will organize people to destroy shrines and uproot traditionalist place of worship all in the name of casting out evil and people will sheepishly follow them. Success in life is not by religion but by careful planning of what you want to be and, in thanksgiving to God always.
Religion has done more harm than good in Nigeria and Africa. The reason they said "Religion is the opium of the masses"

Politics › Re: Pictures Of President Muhammadu Buhari In Morroco by Focusmind: 7:10am On Jun 11, 2018
The red carpet and fanfare are for him to agree on Morocco's demands and intentions. When you treat somebody right and honor him will all respect, his thinking will some how be impaired and will be wired to act in a manner that will make you happy. That's the game Morocco is playing. They want to enter the West African market by becoming ECOWAS member and get Nigeria support on Western Sahara problem.

Good one Morocco. Hawthorn effect will overshadow Buhari
