Poems For ReviewAngels and God by nana(op): 8:58pm On Dec 09, 2005
Angels exist but you don't hear people talking about them,
Angels appear on Christmas cards every year too.,
Are we getting away from Spirituality?
Do you Believe in God and His Angels, do you?

Today in this time period, people are putting themselves first,
It's me, myself, and I , that seems to be the main them today,
Sport become prominent every weekend,
But silently I do think people generally pray,

The world is in chaos, Satan is trying to rule,
Don't be tempted by him, maintain your goals,
Take things slowly, keep your Hope, Faith , and Trust,
Remember Angels exist and God will take care of your Spirit and Soul.
Poems For ReviewAngels Have No ID Bracelets by nana(op): 8:42pm On Dec 09, 2005
Angels have no ID bracelets on them.
No features glow with heavenly delight.
Given that their wings are made of feeling,
Each flying angel's given to concealing
Love's plumage like a rainbow in the night.
Shyness cloaks the halos that surround

Sale of Govt Quarters: Residents vow to fight on


By Jude Njoku & Kingsley Adegboye
Saturday, April 24, 2004


Residents of Federal Government quarters rose from their meeting yesterday resolving not to file a fresh suit in court to enforce their fundamental rights but to vigorously pursue the case filed by the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC), to stop the federal government from selling eight of its high profile properties in Lagos.

The quarters include 1004 estate, Victoria Island, Eric Moore Towers Surulere, Ikoyi Towers, Awolowo Road Towers and Mulliner Towers, all in Ikoyi as well as Bar-beach Towers.
At the meeting which ended late into the night, the residents restated their resolve to buy the affected properties at the amount offered by the highest bidders.

Speaking to Vanguard yesterday on the resolution in separate interviews, the chairman of 1004 Residents Association Mr Kohol and his counterpart in Eric Moore Towers, Mr Daniel Makolo said they are currently discussing with their bankers to raise the money and hoped that government will honour its earlier pledge that “sitting occupants shall be accorded the option of the first refusal at the price of the highest bidder”.
Mr Makolo said they approached the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) for loan but the apex mortgage bank advised them to go through a primary mortgage institution (PMI). He said they approached a Lagos based PMI for assistance but regretted that instead of the PMI coming to their aid, it (PMI) bidded for one of the buildings. He declined to disclose the banks they are currently discussing with.

The Central Working Committee (CWC) of the 1,388 families in Federal Government Quarters in an eight -page letter to the Housing and Urban Development Minister, Mrs Mobolaji Osomo titled “Re: Aftermath of the emergence of highest bidders: Notification of formal interest by legal sitting tenants to pay the prices of highest bidders for unrequired federal government quarters in Lagos” signified their interest in buying the properties.

The letter read in parts “Sequel to the successful conclusion of open, competitive bidding process on 16th April, 2004 in respect of the above subject and the subsequent emergence of the highest bidder through due process, we, the legal sitting tenants of above mentioned properties, in exercise of our constitutional and fundamental human rights, and in consonance with various appropriate provisions hereby signify our interest in buying the properties presently occupied by us.

In doing so, we are prepared to pay the prices of the highest bidders as required. In addition, we have initiated concrete arrangement for comprehensive refurbishment and in fact continuous, sustainable maintenance agenda for common municipal services through the engagement of professional property/facility managers.

Conscious of the financial implications, we have resolved to raise on a continuous basis, the full financial resources to actualise the above objectives in ways that will transform the estates into eldorado, as a follow-up to our maintenance activities for the past eight years”.
The letter which was signed by the CWC chairman, Mr Paul Angya and secretary, Sheik Abdullahi quoted statements made by key government functionaries to the effect that government will give first consideration to sitting occupants.
“We are certain that the hereunder quotations will greatly assist the Hon Minister and the federal government in henceforth taking well-informed decision(s) that will stand the test of moral probity, social justice, equity, fairness, transparent honesty, over-riding public interest and above all, divine judgement”, they said.

They quoted Article 4 of the Bid guidelines which stated that “all legal sitting tenants interested in buying the property they occupy are free to bid, provided they are prepared to pay the price of the highest bidder” as well as an extract from the White paper on the report of the Commission of Inquiry into the Alienation of Federal government landed property which stated that “sitting occupants shall be accorded the option of first refusal at the price of the highest bidder”.

The residents also recalled a statement credited to the secretary to the federal government, Chief Ufot Ekaette that “the auctioning of the quarters would commence a year into the monetisation exercise and residents would be given the first right of acceptance or rejection at the price of the highest bidder” to support their claims to buy the affected properties.

“From the foregoing, it is obvious that the next stage now is to invoke the provisions, clauses and international conventions which enable we, the legal sitting tenants to purchase the properties at the prices of the highest bidders. Pursuant to this, we the legal sitting tenants hereby offer to purchase the estates presently occupied by us at the prices of the highest bidders, as requested by the Federal government.

At last night’s meeting held in 1004 , news filtered in that UACN Plc has upped its bid for the estate to N8 billion. Efforts to confirm the story proved abortive as the managing director of UACN, Mr Steve Mayaki was said to be in Abuja when our reporter called his office. He could also not be reached on his mobile line. Officials of the Housing and Urban Development Ministry could also not be reached. The Personal Assistant to the Minister, Mr Kenneth Odusola Stevenson’s mobile line went dead when our reporter introduced himself.

I dont know how helpful this could be...........
