For those who don’t like stress, here’s another one located around Apolo Crescent before the state secretariat gate. Its entrance has this vine-like adaptation. Reminds me of the movie, Les Miserables.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been in love with the forest. It’s found in the wildlife park around Federal Lowcost. It’s by far the most attractive spot and could double up for your wedding location if you’re an outdoor person.

PoliticsNigerians Are Not Ready For Democracy!!! by jossiwan(op): 9:17pm On Nov 27, 2016
The just concluded Ondo state gubernatorial elections has come and gone with a winner in the mold of Bar. Akerejola of the APC smiling home over the misfortune of a fellow comrade of the bar, the PDP candidate at the polls.
Having said that rhetorically speaking are Nigerians actually ready for democracy? Taking Ondo state as a case study. Ondo state according to the 2006 census has a population of over 3.4 million people, this was a figure quoted over 10yrs ago when the population of Nigeria was estimated at about 120 million people. Today Nigeria population is predicated around 170million to 180 so it is only local too to shift the total population if Ondo to the neighborhood of 4 to over 5 million people at least for the basis of this analysis.
If the above estimation on Ondo is settled, then here lies the danger. A state of over 5 million people has just a little above 1.6 million as total number of people eligible to vote and decide who governs them. The bigger danger here is actually the total number of people that actually went out for this all important decision taking. Going by the INEC results of Ondo gubernatorial elections only a little above 500 thousand people decided the governorship tussle in that state. Now here is the real danger of the type of democracy we practice, 500,000 people about 10 percent of the population deciding the faith of over 90 percent of the people.
It won't be out of place also to draw infraction going by the voters apathy in Ondo to say most likely the chunk of this population that decided the fate of Ondo were artisans, illiterates or mostly those who could not take an informed decision as records always portray the so called educated show some none charlant attitude towards political participation like this.
Most a times the educated ones busy themselves with 'criticism' that is mostly academic in nature but when the true time avail itself for them to translate that criticism into action they are neither seen nor heard. Nigerians should really shift from chasing shadows to the real substance else we will continue to wail making motion without movement.

Romance5 Reassurances Men Need To Always Give Their "Baes" by jossiwan(op): 7:14am On Nov 05, 2016
Yes, my guy, you love your bae very much and you would do everything in your capacity to prove it. Why not start with the little things? In a bid to do ‘great, grand things’ and all the super gestures of love, guys often forget that the little things are not to be ignored.
Women might know, they might see it, but they still always want to hear it from us guys, they want us to look them in the eyes every once in a while and tell them we love them deeply and how beautiful our lives have become now that we have them in it. Here are the 5 reassurances we can always give 'em....

1. I’m proud of you
Take her everywhere with you. Flaunt her on social media. And then, ensure to let her know every time that you are very proud of her. It should give her the complete package like that.

2. I support you
Simply because you are the most important person to her in the world, and having you behind her in her career or business will do wonders for her confidence.

3. You can do it
Everyone needs a cheerleader.
A woman who has given out her heart into loving you needs you to be her number one cheerleader.

4. You’re beautiful
Doing this is necessary and sweet when she’s all made-up in that lovely figure-hugging floor-length black dress.
It is even sweeter when she just woke up in the morning and you sincerely tell her how pretty she looks.

5. I’m sorry
While many women would rather have you not offend them, they still understand that it is human nature for everyone [especially us men] to mess up every once in a while.
A sincere apology does wonders for them in this instance. It shows that you respect and value them. Apologising with a gift or a forehead kiss is even more magical.

Celebrities6 Nigerians You Should Never Invite To Your House Party by jossiwan(op): 10:58pm On Oct 25, 2016
To help you prevent any troubles during your house party, we share 6 types of people you should NEVER invite to your house party.

1. The Music dictator
The music dictators are the ones that will never allow the disc jockey to do his job. They keep pestering the Dj annoyingly requesting him to change the song especially if they do not like it. If everyone don’t like the song the Dj is playing, it is a recipe for chaos. This is why it is important for you to get a reputable Dj who knows the right song to play at the right time.

2. The person who cannot handle Alcohol
The sight of free alcohol or booze makes them lose their sense of control or discipline. They gulp and gulp until they are utterly drunk. Since alcohol is now controlling them, they fight everyone, throw and say irrational things. Jumia Travel advice you should evict such people before their erratic and alcoholic influenced actions get worse. Better still, don’t invite them to your party.

3. The girlfriend poacher
They spend their time at the party hitting on different girls even if they came with their woman. They don’t care whose ox is gored by their action. If you dull yourself, they will disappear with your girlfriend! They are natural players and their charms can get them any woman. Strike them out of the list of invitees.

4. The Strangers
The strangers are the friend of your friend. You have never met them before but they have the privilege of knowing your friends. These happen at all parties. What you should do is to tell your friends to let you know if they are coming with friends. If they don’t, you should not grant them access to your party.

5. The person who doesn’t know when to leave
The party ends at 10pm but you still find them till 12am. They want to spend the night in your home which you are uncomfortable with. Everyone should know when to leave a party even if you are living remotely.

6. The Drug addicts
The easiest drug to get into a party is Indian hemp. They are addicted to this weed. In addition, they are the ones that miss these drugs in drinks. You should not invite them.

NYSCThe 7 Stages Of Heartbreak When Your Call-up Letter Comes Out by jossiwan(op): 7:35am On Oct 23, 2016
NYSC could be a fun-filled one year, but sometimes, it could just be a bunch of heartbreaks.

Sometimes, heartbreak means receiving your call-up letter and seeing everything you didn't expect. Let's assume you wanted to serve in Lagos, but they gave you Gombe instead.


1. It's a lie. This is not my call-up letter!
The letter has your name and course of study on it, but never!. You cannot claim it. In fact, you're so sure that you start scrolling through the call-up list to check for the other person bearing your name and surname.
Surprise surprise. You are the only person with that name and surname on the entire list. No one else. All the questions start flooding your mind and you immediately kick into the next gear.


2. WHAT THE HELL?!
Remember when your uncles and aunties collected your call up number? They said they'd help you get posted to the state you wanted because their friend in NYSC works with the person who wakes the Governor up every morning.
You dial them to ask how far, but they just give you response like,
But you didn’t depend on them 100%. After all, the bicycle they promised you since primary school hasn’t even come through.
So you made arrangements with one sure runs guy. He must have an explanation.
But you dial that one’s number and all you hear is "the number you have dialled is switched off".


3. Oh Lord, why me?
At this stage, you know you have entered one chance, so you just let the emotions take over completely.
You start thinking of all the stories you heard of Corpers going missing, or even rumours of villagers eating Corpers that have too much shakara.


4. This is the self-blame phase.
You start thinking about all the things you did and didn’t do. You start wondering maybe it didn’t click because the money you gave your runs guy wasn’t mint. Or whether you didn’t scream enough when you were praying about it. But last last.


5. God punish them!
The runs guy for jonzing you. The Government for refusing to scrap NYSC, and everything or everyone you think is responsible for your predicament. Minus yourself of course.


6. I don’t give a damn anymore!
At this point, you stop caring. You don’t care about what anyone has to say, you don’t care about NYSC, about what your family is going to say, or anybody at all. You’re just going to leave everything, go ahead and create a new app and become a billionaire.
Then it strikes you, all the people that have invented important things in the last 100 years had light. But you are still struggling with NEPA.
Hay God!


7. The “God dey” moment has come.
This is when your shoulder drops on this matter, never to rise again.
You now start calling to look for all the people who got posted to that state you hate so much.
And when people start to tease you about it, you just tell them “Na small thing, it didn’t even bother me at all”.
It’s just camp, you tell yourself. Just camp.
Then it dawns on you that the next one year of your life might happen very slowly in a village that might not even have Internet.
Kuku kill me.

PoliticsWhat Do APC Led Government Take Us For? by jossiwan(op): 7:41am On Sep 07, 2016
FG Approves more external borrowings, says it will boost the dwindling economy
The question is why borrowing when they claimed to have saved
N2.6trn through TSA
N1.4trn from Subsidy
N3.2trn from recovered loot
N665bn from stamp duty
N1.1trn from custom
N2.6trn from Tax revenue
N2.7trn from crude oil
The list is endless.
According to various reports by FG the total fund generated so far FG is above N13.2trns.
Remember the 2016 budget is N6.4trn. How come FG is still borrowing to Fund N6.4trn Budget when it has generated over N13.2trn.huh?
This Question is worth asking!
