''Many Nigerians are complaining about the constant
fall in the value of the Naira and they blame the
Government.
But is the government really to blame?
In truth, our insatiable appetite for all things foreign
is to blame.
I always fly Arik Business Class whenever I am
traveling abroad except Arik does not fly on that
route.
Not only is an Arik ticket a fraction of the cost of a
British Airways ticket, but the money I pay to Arik
circulates in Nigeria and helps firm up the Naira’s
value.
As I speak to you today, a British Airways Business to
London is ₦2,103,666 while Arik Business is ₦551,545
yet our elite still fly BA..
But though Arik offers an affordable alternative to
British Airways and other foreign airlines, our big
men prefer to pay double what Arik charges to BA
and other foreign airlines for the same services and
yet they complain about the value of the Naira.
I have Nasco cornflakes and I have eaten Kellogs
cornflakes. In terms of nutrition and taste they are
almost indistinguishable. Yet our elite who will rather
eat Kellogs than Nasco cornflakes, wonder why the
Naira is falling!
Even something like Quaker Oats can be substituted
with corn meal known locally as pap.Obasanjo Farms
of Nigeria and other large scale poultry farms have
the capacity to provide chicken for the entire nation.
Since that is the case, why are we even buying
imported chicken?
In fact what is wrong if every family in Nigeria has a
poultry in their backyard to give them eggs and meat?
My steward went to Makoko, which is one of the
largest fishing communities in Lagos. He wanted to
buy fish and they were selling imported frozen fish!
Yet in the very waters in front of them, there exist
fresh fish that is more nutritious than the cheap
frozen fish they were selling.
We keep spending over 1 Billion Naira importing rice
when our own farmers are capable of meeting our
national demand for rice. But for some reason,
Nigerians just prefer to buy imported rice.
The imported rice we buy in Nigeria is not as good as
our local rice because it has been stored for years in
silos and treated with chemicals.
Moreover, every time you buy it, your money is going
out of Nigeria to service an economy in Asia. The end
result is that their currency gains value while ours
loses value.
Have you ever wondered why European Premiership
Clubs are so interested in Nigeria? It is because
Nigerians spend billions traveling to Europe to watch
their games, buy their merchandise and promote
their leagues.
Yet, back at home, we would not be caught dead
watching our own local league.
If we will not spend money on made in Nigeria goods
and services, how can we expect our Naira to hold its
value and appreciate?
Obviously we can not cut ourselves off from the
world. No nation is an island, but at least we can fly
Nigerian airlines, eat locally produced food and
patronize our football league.
If we do this, not only will our economy grow and
produce jobs for Nigerians, it will also make our
goods and services improve in value such that they
will be attractive enough to be imported.
I bought Innoson vehicles as official cars for my staff.
I have never lived to regret it one day. They are
comfortable and durable. But most of all, I know that
my purchase helps to keep jobs in Nigeria and
improve the value of the Naira.
I urge you to do the same. We have no other country
but Nigeria and it is you and I that will make it what it
is.
If we buy Naija We Will Grow Naira
My name is Ben Murray-Bruce and I just want to
make Commonsense! www.stelladimokokorkus.com/2016/02/senator-ben-bruce-says-no-one-should.html?m=1 |

As is customary with most Christian leaders at the end of any particular year, they issue prophecies regarding events and happenings to look out for in the New Year. While some of the prophecies have been spot on, most of them have been wide-off the mark. The outgoing year – 2015 – was no exception as prophet after prophet jostled for news space with their predictions for the year, especially since it was an election year. Predictably, many of them predetermined the outcome of the 2015 presidential elections and did they get it right? Information Nigeria culled some highlights of the 2015 prophecies that never came to pass from LEADERSHIP Friday. Excerpts: Prophet Olaniyi Odutayo Prophet Olaniyi Odutayo of the World Prophetic Church, Ikeja, had in the countdown to the March 28, 2015 presidential poll, claimed by divine revelation, that President Goodluck Jonathan would defeat three strong contenders to emerge victorious. Odutayo, who was said to have fasted for 40 days, declared that God revealed to him that although the opposition would win more states in the election, President Jonathan would win a second term in office. He said, “During the prayer/fasting, the Lord showed me three men trying to bury Goodluck Jonathan. Each one of them was trying to bury him one after the other, but as they pushed down his head, he rose up again. After the third man pushed down his head, he thought he had prevailed, he was already jubilating but suddenly Goodluck rose up”. Prophet Joseph Oladipupo. For Prophet Joseph Oladipupo of the Akure, Ondo State-based Faith and Victory Church, God said Muhammadu Buhari, the major challenger of the then incumbent president, Jonathan, would not win. “The upcoming election will be very tough for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) but they will win the presidency”, he said. Primate Elijah Ayodele Popular among the prophets is Primate Elijah Ayodele of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, who predicted that God showed him Jonathan would continue to rule till 2019. “The 2015 elections will hold but will be peaceful in some areas and not in other areas. As it is, from what I see at the moment, PDP will win, amidst serious criticism”, the founder and General Overseer of the church said as far back as January 2013. Apostle Johnson Suleman Another popular prophet, Apostle Johnson Suleman of the Auchi, Edo State-based Omega Fire Ministry, it would be better if President Jonathan quietly returned to his village in Otuoke and not seek re-election because of the level of bloodshed he saw that would greet his re-election. “2015 election is another June 12. The man who truly won, will not govern or rule”, was how the Apostle put his own. Although, he was not categorical, these words of Apostle Suleman implied that Jonathan was favoured to win but after that, violence may consume him. He thus advised that the “divinely favoured candidate quit the race or face the regrettable consequences”. Prophet Paul Okikijesu A Lagos prophet, Paul Okikijesu was also not quite clear with his prediction, but said correctly that Buhari might be voted for on one condition – he should “surrender his heart to me”. It is not known if the then APC candidate surrendered his heart to Prophet Okikiiesu, the cleric, however, added a caveat: “they will neither release power to him nor swear him in as the president of the nation. His situation will be similar to Abiola that had people’s mandate, but was not given the chance to rule the country”. Guru Maharaji For the spiritual leader of One Love Family, Sat Guru Maharaji, Jonathan’s victory was a foreclosed issue. “There is no vacancy for Buhari at Aso Rock. President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is the verifiable divine choice of the forthcoming presidential election”, he declared. Guru Maharaji was completely far off the mark with this particular prophecy as Buhari is occupying Aso Rock at the moment. Babatunde Elijah Ayodele The founder of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Oke-Afa, Isolo, Lagos, Babatunde Elijah Ayodele, whose prophecy concerning the presidential election was first made in January 2013, further came up with some predictions as the 2015 general elections drew close. He foretold ahead of the election: “Kaduna is going to be very bloody. PDP may take Kaduna, but it’s going to be by narrow margin. Yobe, Gombe, Benue, Delta, Akwa Ibom, all those states will be won by PDP”. After the election, not only did APC win Kaduna, the election was calm and not bloody. Also, the PDP missed clinching Yobe and Benue governorship seats as the primate had predicted. He was right on Gombe while Akwa Ibom is still a subject of litigation with the Appeal Court already nullifying PDP’s victory in the state. On the presidential election, the cleric had this to say about Jonathan: “This election is a lesson for him and there are still lessons for him to learn if he now gets it back. He still needs a lot of prayers. But in the midst of all the ups and downs, he may still have a very slim chance of winning the election. I don’t see any landslide victory at all between him and Buhari. At the end of the day, PDP will win the federal, but the party will crash after the election”. Archbishop John Obiokeke Archbishop John Obiokeke of God Pentecostal Mission Churches is reputed to have made some predictions which came to pass. However, his predictions on the 2015 presidential election seem to have missed the mark. At the early hours of 2015, he made predictions which foretold the coming back of Jonathan after the election. He had prophesied in January, “God is saying that there is no vacancy in Aso Rock. For reasons best known to him, Jonathan, even though will rig, is still going to be the president”. His prophecy ended on an assuring note that “the election is going to be tight, but Jonathan will return”. Brother Joshua Iginla Prophet Joshua Iginla is the founder of Champions Royal Assembly, a new-generation church based in Kubwa, Abuja. He is among those whose prophecies on the 2015 presidential election didn’t come to pass. Joshua once said in an interview in January this year, “I am not a politician nor do I belong to any political party. I am just speaking God’s mind. The person sitting on the seat might not be perfect but he will retain the seat. It’s not guesswork… President Jonathan will win, but he has to pray about his health and so many political blows”.[b]As is customary with most Christian leaders at the end of any particular year, they issue prophecies regarding events and happenings to look out for in the New Year.

The challenges of marriage... nawao! After you do
everything to make yourself happy in your marriage,
one thing will just happen to spoil your expectations.
A wedding ceremony turned into a shocking
unexpected tragedy for a Chinese family after the
bride was left unconscious by a prank that went
wrong in the hands of the groomsmen:
The bride arrived at the hotel to meet the groom for
the wedding banquet. Several groomsmen were sent
to welcome her at the front gate. Wedding
shenanigans are usually expected at this point
according to Chinese traditions, so the groomsmen
picked up the bride and threw her into the air,
pretending to scare her.
Unfortunately, the bride was not ready or not
expecting the prank at that moment and the grooms
men too were not fast enough to catch the lady who
was totally scared. She landed on her own and
collapsed.
The bribe is battling for her life.

World leaders are supporting the anti corruption fight of the president so that those who stole the resources meant for the development of the country can be brought to book and the stolen resources recovered and put to better use for ordinary Nigerians yet, people like you who will be the biggest beneficiary are trying to run down the presidents effort. Did you benefit a kobo from Dasukigate? See, election is long over and GEJ lost. Support the presidents effort to rid the country of corruption. People like you will be the biggest beneficiary of a corruption free Nigeria.
