7. Ruthless efficiency in execution and completion of tasks. If they have to cut off social media, cut of certain people, cut of social activities, stay up all night, meet people/collaborators who can support, etc, they will do it. They are not emotional about things that wouldnt add value. There is a certain ruthless streak in highly successful people.
Most people dont know this and when you tell them, they say "it is harsh, no na..."

8. Consistency. Excellence isnt what you do once, but maintaining a high standard and performance repeatedly. This is what highly successful people do. It takes ruthlessness, it takes sacrifice, it takes being tunnel-visioned.

MEND are going the EFCC way, which is to make noise in the media.
Herdsmen have virtually chased Delta women from going to their farms, kill, rape women in Delta State, Cross River, Akwa Ibom on an almost Daily basis.
What has MEND done?
The herdsmen militia will come and do their massacre and MEND will do nothing about it.

I'm a graduate from one of the south west university in Nigeria, and i spend all my life in Lagos state , and also a yoruba guy from Lagos State.

But due to the rising and unavailability of good jobs around, i have been thinking of moving over to the North for greener pasture, i want to leave my comfort zone.

So, two states are on my mind, plateau state or gombe.

I really want input of individuals on this issues:

Cost of living

Availability of jobs

Security

Acceptability of strangers, and many more.


Which state do you guys think is ok, I'm really in need of a good job.

I will really appreciate this topic to be in frontpage so as to reach wider audience.
I have been to and spend some time in both States.
If you can secure a good job there, move. But do not start a family there, at least not now. It will be hard not to start a family in Plateau State... Because, if a Jos girl holds you, my brother, forget about it.
The security situation is fragile in both States. Find the safest place and live there.
Live a very low-key life. Have few friends.
No risks, no rewards that is my kind of life, hence I cannot tell you not to move there smiley

If you know you will renege on whatever discussion you have with your potential husband when he brings you ABROAD, especially the US where Guns are legal, tell that brother that you are OK in Buhari land and you dont want to marry him.

For someone who has travelled to nearly 90 countries and who has never been denied a visa, by God's mercies, I would stress this main point:

DO NOT LIE.

Dont lie. Dont exaggerate. Dont assume. Dont pretend. Dont act like something you arent. DO NOT LIE.

Sadly, it is the usual way for Nigerians to lie and it is ingrained in many Nigerians. I know this, as I have tried and failed to tire Nigerians to run research for me. They will say, "I will send it in 20 minutes" and in hours or days, it wont be sent.
Of course, I do not work with such people.
"Bros, I dey near your junction", when he hasnt left his house.
"Guy, send me money, I'll pay it on Friday", it would probably never come.
Nigerians have made lying a culture. Believe me, in the West, it will put you in TROUBLE.
Generaly, Americans, White folks are uncompromisingly blunt and desire honesty. If you start lying, you wont be consistent with your answers.
Lie once and that is the END for you. If you have to spend some weeks training yourself to tell the truth at ALL times, train yourself.

Because if you lie, patronise them, pretend, present fake documents, YOU WILL BE CAUGHT.
Meanwhile, the US has access to all your Tweets and Facebook comments, deleted or not deleted. THEY DO.

Christianity Etc › Re: Popular Nigerian Pastors Never Liked TB Joshua by madridsta007(m): 8:52pm On Jun 08, 2021
CardiNice:
The death of prophet TB Joshua has certified my suspicion of many years that big and popular pastors especially the non prophets, don't like TB Joshua.

There is a divided ship in Nigeria when it comes to NIGERIA pastors, if you look at it very well, there are those that are for TB JOSHUA and those that are for the other G,O of another ministry, but i won't mention any name of G,O on this thread.

I've realised that the men of GOD that have paid tribute to TB Joshua are all prohets of GOD.

Up till now, no words of tribute from the Christian bodies of Nigeria. The famous and popular G,O of big Nigeria ministries are quiet.
But men and women of GOD from other different countries from Africa and the world are all paying their tributes and even crying on television because of the calling home of TB Joshua.

I know the award giving to him by the presidency of Goodluck Jonathan many years ago will fuel jealousy from other Nigeria men of GOD.

So below is a well documented YouTube video to prove that many pastors in Nigeria were jealous of TB Joshua.
They even disliked him.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2021/06/he-was-passionate-about-helping-the-downtrodden-can-breaks-silence-on-tb-joshuas-death/?utm_source=&utm_medium=twitter

The Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, on Tuesday, described the late founder of Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua, as passionate in his propagation of the gospel and ministering to the needs of the downtrodden.

CAN President, Reverend Samson Ayokunle, said this in a condolence letter addressed to his wife, Pastor (Mrs) Evelyn Joshua.

He said that TB Joshua would be greatly missed by his family, and the nation in general, saying that the church has lost a great leader.
Ayokunle in the letter issued by his Special Assistant on Media and Communication, Pastor Adebayo Oladeji, said in spite of his success and fame, Prophet TB Joshua did not lose the common touch.

The CAN President said, “The news of the demise of your darling husband, Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua, at the age of 57 came to us amidst great shock and sorrow.

“We are particularly sad because the deceased showed no trace of illness prior to his demise after an Evening Church Service on Saturday 5th June, 2021. We commiserate with you, the children and entire members of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) on this irreparable loss.

“Prophet T.B Joshua was one of the foremost Nigerian charismatic pastors, televangelists, and philanthropists who devoted his entire lifetime to the propagation of the gospel and ministering to the needs of the downtrodden.

“He was renowned for his philosophical simplicity and humility. His death is not only a loss to the family and the church, but to Nigeria and the world at large.

“There are indeed no exact words of comfort at a moment like this, but we humbly enjoin you to take solace in the Will of the Almighty God, who works in us both to do and work according to his good purpose (Philippians 2:13).

“We know that Our Lord Jesus Christ, in whom there is all sufficiency, and whom you have been serving wholeheartedly will make all grace abound unto you at this trying moment (2 Corinthians 9:cool.

“On behalf of all members of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), we commiserate with you, and the entire family on this loss. It is our prayer that the Almighty God grant Prophet T.B Joshua an eternal rest in his creator, and may God’s perpetual light continue to shine on his path.”

Thanks for the reply.

Regarding the bold, all British representatives/delegates to Nigeria/West Africa were elated and praised the publication. It was a major eye-opener to me - Britain loves the present state of Nigeria. embarassed

But don't you think war is inevitable if Buhari carries out his threat? Do you expect Igbos to sit and watch themselves slaughtered again? This time, Tivs, Idomas and other ethnic minorities won't join the Fulanis.
Of course the British loves the present state of Nigeria. I wonder why this is strange to Nigerians. How would Britian love a Nigeria recording a 5-7% annual GDP growth and is slowly, being independent? Of course that would scare any colonial masterv undecided. You think the British love a progressive, modernist, economically & militarily strong Nigeria? Of course not. So they had to work with Obama to effect a regime change in 2015.
The mistake the West made with China, they wouldnt make with Nigeria.

Again, we talk about "war" as if it is some child's play. Will Buhari carry his threat on the Igbo man? Most likely. He is aware that the British will give him diplomatic support and usually, the Americans will tag along. So this is the "best" time. I do not think it will be that extensive to elicit a war, but of course the Igbo will not sit back and watch themselves massacred.

So, when do you think the next civil war is starting? embarassed

On a hindsight, I'm beginning to think some people are lobbying for Southern Nigeria's/Igbo's interests in DC. I say this because Northern elites are very good at lobbying international media and think tanks, and these articles paint a bad light on Buhari's administration. There was one prior article published on the FA which was coauthored by one Ndi intellectwat of a Folanisk from Oxford defending Nigeria's present condition. Same Fola is a friend to Dipo Awojide who is a friend to El-Rufai.
War is a terrible thing. Folks that havent seen an ethnoreligious riots are the one shouting, "war" everytime and I find that humourous.
War is a terrible thing. Nigeria isnt going to war mbok.

The North are excellent with lobbying, which is made easier by the fact that they have a permanent friend, due to permanent interest in Whitehall. Today, they are constantly at the American Embassy in Lagos. Hence I was surprised when Ambassador Campbell insisted that his piece was coming out in Foreign Policy and Foreign Affairs. This is big. Let me leave it at that.

As for Fola, ignore him. He is a Buharist and his article, co-written with one Professor in Birmingham was an article that was hurridly pushed out when they (the current feudalists) heard about what Amb. Campbell was about to author.

It is a weak, tired, casual response from Garba Shehu.
There were two different articles from Foreign Policy and Foreign Affairs. Interestingly, I spoke with Ambassador Campbell some few weeks ago at a Florida event and he told me this was coming.

Sadly, everything in those papers are very, very exact. And even conservative.
FP and FA are two publications known for (1) influencing America's foreign policy and (2) DC lobbying and lobbyists.
