“Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of
Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from
you,
and though they are with you, yet they
belong not to you.
You may give them your love, but not
your thoughts.
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not
their souls,
for their souls dwell in the house of
tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not
even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek
not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward, nor tarries
with yesterday.”

heart directives.” —Sara Paddison

“That’s what real love amounts to - letting
a person be what he really is. Most people
love you for who you pretend to be. To
keep their love, you keep pretending -
performing. You get to love your pretence.
It’s true, we’re locked in an image, an act -
and the sad thing is, people get so used to
their image, they grow attached to their
masks. They love their chains. They forget
all about who they really are. And if you try
to remind them, they hate you for it, they
feel like you’re trying to steal their most
precious possession.” —Jim Morrison

sentiment we don’t share.” —Graham
Green
“Once the realization is accepted that even
between the closest human beings
infinite distance continues to exist, a
wonderful living side-by-side can grow
up, if they succeed in loving the distance
between them which makes it possible
for each to see the other whole and
against a wide sky.” —Rainer Maria Rilke
“Great minds discuss ideas. Average
minds discuss events. Small minds discuss
people.”

alsudaes1:
I doubt the "Federal" aspect of it if it is tied to an individual being in office, , ,

are you sure it is truely "Federal"

Yes! They are "Federal". The name is ...
Federal Task force SURE P/ FERMA and Federal Government know everything about it. Federal Government have come to defend them in Lagos when Fasola said He didn't want to see them on Lagos Road. Now, Let me give you a good evidence...... When President Goodluck Jonathan visited Osun State to Campaign, the Federal Task Force (Osun State Command) were there not just to cheers but, in their Kit and join hands together through which Pres. Jonathan walked through together with His security inteligence and after that they (Federal Task Force, Osun State Command) formed themselves as fence to control movement of people at the Nelson Mandella freedom park at Osogbo.

If you know little/much about how security operatives works on any place the President is about to visit you will understand me better.

willi926:
truth of d matter is EVERYTHING ABOUT FEDERAL TASK FORCE SURE P/ FERMA was a fraud. very bad.

are you sure? Because, Nigeria Police Force, Nigeria Civil Defence and sometimes Nigeria Army visits their training ground and show 'Espirit De Corps' stuff to Federal Task Force officers on ground, infact NPF will give them atleast 4 men like everyday.

Federal Task Force
11:36am

Please what do you know about Federal
Task Force?
-People bought form
-People suffer in the sun
-Went through millitary training
-Spent Money
-Took risks
-Spent Time
-Humiliated
-Risk Life ...etc.
Just to get employed but, it seems their
hope is fading away as Pres. Goodluck is
leaving office come May 29 and they are
yet to hear anything.
They have Lagos command and
Osun State command ( I heard some states
also started before election)

Okay

Though, i hate PDP and don't understand their manifesto but, The bilieve i have in @MBuhari actualy prompted me to campaign for him on my facebook, twitter, Mail, Badoo, Eskimi, Whatsapp, 2go, MXchat e.t.c... APC have plans that would benefit the masses even if the candidate is clueless like Fayemi ( Fayemi is a good man but, not a good politician, but the party manifesto guilded him aright).

Now...
If you believe in Baba like i do -- Good

If you understand how APC manifesto works on their Candidates setting APC controled state as an example -- Better

If you know that, the likes of Tinubu, Akande and Oyegun will not want to loose the name 'first men' -- Best


Buhari will change things, He will hit the ground running especially, His first regim.

Oh God of heaven and Earth and all that liveth between them!

Let Mama Taraba make it!

Ha ha! Jobless.

Even, if Buhari ministerial list will leak, not like this!
