That is life for you

Gambari should learn very quickly but I guess when they become stooges they don’t learn anything!

Just keep smiling for the camera like femi adeshina and continue being a stooge
Gambari is just removing and putting his friends
PoliticsRe: Obaseki: APC's NWC Has No Power To Decide Mode Of Primary In Edo by parish1234: 7:15am On May 23, 2020

Many of the people saying Obaseki is not a coward like Ambode will come back here to say he didn't go down without fighting. Truth of the matter is, Ambode understood he was into a battle he couldn't win and he decided to use his brain rather than his fist. Obaseki has found himself in a similar situation, I mean,how can a single man fight a whole party structure in the state, not possible. I just don't see him scaling through the primary because a direct primary is just like a 'check-up' card in a game of 'WHOT'
Shot up� which party structure? All the party structure in the state are in the hand of Obaseki starting from the counsellor .... All the house of assembly are with him... now how does his fight look ambodes own.. Edo is not Lagos..u will see what will happen.... Oshomo and his few are the ones fighting a the whole party structure in the state

Obaseki need to remember what happened with Amosun/Akinlade and Ambode in 2018
Such can never happen in Edo State

FamilyRe: My Brother On Hard Drugs: 18 Years Of Pains And Sorrow. I Need Help! by parish1234: 10:46pm On May 18, 2020
star4ever:
I have a 42 year old brother who for over 18 years has been on hard drugs. He started this habit while in secondary school and couldn't finish tertiary education for same reason. Efforts made by the family to stop him from substance abuse and rehabilitate him at several occasions failed. Each time such effort is made, he recovers after a while but returns to the habit. Currently, he has become mentally deranged and there seems to be no solution at sight.

He has been admitted to different psychiatric hospitals on two occasions. At both times, he was treated and confirmed fit and sound to return to the society. The moment he was discharged, he quickly went back to his old ways and all the resources spent went into the drain. In one of the occasions, we were strongly advised to engage him as joblessness was one of the greatest problem causing the abuse. We got him engaged by securing a fantastic job which he also left after a week of working there. Other meaningful efforts geared towards engaging him to enable him to become occupied and start earning a living as a man also didn’t work out.

We have organised prayer sessions by powerful men of God, nothing has happened yet. I do want to sound like someone without faith. I strongly believe that our able God will make things beautiful at His time. However, the situation has gone out of control and we need to act fast.

These, amongst many, are some of the interventions already done by the family and we cannot fold our arms and watch people mock us in shame every day due to his abnormal activities in the community.

Now what he does is forcefully, take money from our aged mum, sell any family property at sight in exchange for money to buy his drugs. Beat my mum up at any slightest refusal to give him money. He has been jailed many times for committing several offences related to this habit, yet the problem persists. Maybe we have not applied the best approach?

I am calling on fellow Nairalanders to assist with solutions. I believe there are some of us here who may have experienced this problem in one way or the other, or have an advise to give to solve this lingering painful situation. Your personal or professional experience (s) may go a long way in salvaging this situation for us.

I believe a problem shared is a problem solved.
. No worry
