Efemenaxy1: What make it "default"?

I think babies are innocent and ignorant naturally..... They have no knowledge of two or many things but one. The need to cry when they are hungry is the only thing they know. They do every thing they do as their first attempt. And as such, they do it anyhow.

Congrats to you sire,,,, i wish her success all around from being an infant to adult...

Please, let's finalise the issue about the group's tag.

GreatIfe's initiative14? Or GreatIfe's initiative? Or you suggest.

kllinxman: No.7 Prayer

apparently I omitted it advertently....

Have you ever wondered why God blesses even the atheists? It's funny but true. God has created us and all He has left is assessment and endorsement of our efforts. God is a fair being. Yea

Samtolly4JESUS: Chairman, na you be boss jae... This OAU issue noe go kill person

Imagine, I was at ETF the other day, every single rooms were under lock and key!!

Samtolly4JESUS: Chairman, na you be boss jae... This OAU issue noe go kill person

naso o oga mi.... I give it two more weeks and we should be back to school by His grace.

Samtolly4JESUS: Let's get a little bit reasonable dear sister. Whatever objectivity means to you.

Don't get misconcepted, there's always twain sides to a coin. Myself is an Alutaist. Myself attends congresses, makes contributions when necessary. Not everyone is a coward like you proffesed.

The thing is that press conferences won't lift a hair from the school management. Don't you see it? Those guys up there are diplomatic bigots. They just love those cameras.

What I'm saying in essence is that, in the absence of better tactics, its shrewder to back out. Would you continue in a battle when your weapons are defected?

I'm not an advocate of regression and I'm not emcouraging cowardice, I'm just saying we just get a little bit more objective.

See from this light fellow comrade.

Barry to smart... Chop knuckles...lol

Danthesage: Nice one bro....... #OAU-NO-GO-KILL-US

hahahahaha

fattbabakay: I'm not going against d struggle Sir,I'm a good supporter when it comes to reasonable aluta...Just telling dem my mind coz staying @ home watching press conferences with nothing to show for it is not d solution(accordin to what I think)

so what do you think is the way forward?

Several means of negotiation have been exhausted and the management remains silent and adamant. You can only force a horse to the river; you can't force it to drink.

Apparently, I understand the need to graduate and sort first degree out asap then again I ask. First; they came for your towel, next; they came for your shirt; when aren't they gonna strip you naked? The 2011 acceptance increment saga is still fresh in people's minds and a leaf from that past happening necessitates that this struggle better be won or the future struggles are gone afore starts.

It's only a fo.ol that fights for an unjust cause and I see no foolahardy game in the struggle thus far albeit the means of taming the lionic and Machiavellian management of OAU which seem unfazed by the situation on ground.

Let's see what the external interventions have to offer. Jude Imagwe (SSA on youths and students matters) is poised to be on it and the senate is aware of the saga too. Let's pray it all turns out good so I can see Fattbabkay's grown moustache asap....lol

First off, FrancisTony I'd like to take a leaf off your nice article and air my plain part.

The Six Necessary Ps

I could remember a quote from Joseph Ford: "God plays dice with the universe: it's our aim to find on what rules this dice is loaded and how to blend them to our end".

Based on the above presumption I see the 6 Ps as the tools towards the discovery and utilisation of the rules to our end:

1) Planning
2)Preparation
3)Problem
4)Perseverance
5)Perfection
6)Planning

Planning: This I must say is the foundation on which other bricks of processes are built. Planning in this context is borne out of the acceptance of the stance that you are responsible for your success or failure and thus you need to plan to achieve your choice of the two[b]. Proper planning they say- prevents poor performance. Every man should have a plan for his life. This plan is expected to embody his goals and dreams [b](well identified and properly outlined). I wonder why most of OAU freshers are clamouring "don't waste our time" to the ears of the SU and management (if they could hear). Thus, a minute should not be expended off the course of your plan. Your actions and intentions should surround the plan.

Preparation: at this stage the readiness of the mind is up and the morale is high. You look fresh and set for the tasks ahead and thus you garner all you may need enroute to your destination. materially or non-materially. Consult the oracles (those with similar or close destination's experience or read about your destination). You smile at this stage cause you relish the challenges ahead. Itakamus (c'mon).

Problem: you were fresh enroute to your destination then you hit a stone and stumbled. Panic not it's a mere exercise with reward. Just like Walter Bagchot said "expect problems and take them for breakfast". Be ready to face challenges that pose as problems. You're way stronger than whatever comes your way. When they come, chew them off.

Perseverance: okay, you're tired cause of the last P. C'mon, it's just a routine check on your tenacity. Accept the fact that challenges will come and you will prevail and must not stop or yield to stumbling off the course. When the weather is hot; cool yourself and when it's cold heat yourself and MOVE ON. You're all that matters.

Perfection: nobody is perfect? Yea; I know. I'm not trying to be perfect I'm trying to best my best. That should be your watchword. Always set the bar high and see where you end at the end. You can't settle for less.

Planning: I wrote it twice? Yes! At this stage you've attained your goal and you're concerned with the plans to give back to the society that gave you a platform to be who you are. You've risen above the confine of your self-concerned and have to help navigate righteously the broader stage where we have the concerns of others....

And round it goes again!!
Thanks for reading.

A word from ma homie..... Jah bless you bro.

LogoDWhiz: Hmm. That's true..

But I don't see any better choice.. She's already 'rotten'.

yea... Divine intervention can make her act normal....

LogoDWhiz: @dygeasy. Well, I don't think I'll have that kind of situation with any of my children .

My advice for such is, firstly, let the parents sit the girl down. Talk sense into her.. U can't be shy of your parents, respect them for what they have and who they are. The mom has a lot of work to do in this regard, let her build more bond with the girl, get the girl to open up to her the reason for the madness, maybe she is being intimidated...

And if she still acts silly, they should ignore her actions, better still send her to a relative...

that's if she gives them the audience.

Dygeasy: By normal way I mean the way Nigerian parents bring up kids.

Her parents surely have overindulged her excesses.

I argued it with a friend earlier today stating exactly what y'all are saying here as my would be line of action but he opined the parents are probably scared she might end up hurt or worse if they don't 'worship' her.

hahaha... They've already overindulged her. It would take a divine touch for her to change...

Perhaps I don't get what Dygeasy meant by 'being brought-up the normal way'. That kind of child is really a case. The parents should have cleared air with her from day 1. She doesn't dictate what they do, what they buy or whatever.

If I were her dad. I would leave her for a couple of weeks. No calls, nothing. Yea, forsake her for some time and see if she changes or not.
