Leadership is a noble thing. Its a shame what our leaders make of it in Nigeria.

In Nigeria, people don't understand leadership is service. They want to be leaders and they want to be served hence, eating their cake and having it..

Just subject urself to an IQ test and u'l know how smart u are, every other thing is Bla Bla Black sheep.

Bill gates wasn't considered a smart ass kid.

Genius they say is just a continual application of common sense, well, most'a times common sense is not common.

Is there Credit Crunch? Are we facing Austerity or our Labour laws are weak to protect the sacked workers?

10th day in the 7th month, 2013 budget hasn't passed.. Plus the high unemployment, a bank is still pushing more to be unemployed in the already over saturated level of unemployment in the country.

GEJ should better come back from China ooo!

America has not said they won't play with us.
America only said we should strengthen our democratic institutions..

America didn't insult us, they only adviced.
Romancing with China to spite America is not Healthy.. More so, China doesn't pay attention to details.. Bridges collapse everyday in China, Story of Train derailing in more rampant in China. Just recently, Asiana Airline crash landed a plane in San Francisco In yankee..
I'm not saying America is Perfect, they have their own short comings, but America is number 1 and it doesn't make sense romancing with Number 2 or se 3 ni behind russia.
You can never compare "Made in China" and "Made in America"

We are Giants of Africa and African's Number 1, it makes sense Romancing with world number 1.. Like Obama romance with Mandela, 1st black American president visiting 1st black South African President..

Dangote romancing with Bill gates.. Africa's Number 1 and World/American number 1..

I just hope u guys c where I'm coming from.

My GEJ rating has dropped 15 basis point.

Goodluck sha..

Christianity Etc › Re: My Faith Verses Near Death Experiences - I'm Losing It. by PStacks(m): 3:37pm On Jul 10, 2013
grin are u serious!!! Weirdooo!

I like the Learn by Experience and Love unconditionally part.

No Teacher can ever beat Experience, on the other hand, Love is the greatest.
Love for whom u are,
Love for what u do,
Love for your country
And a whole lot of love for mankind. Love is tender, love is gentle, love is meek love is patient. Love endures. Love is the miracle we need. Too much hate in the world and a lot of Tensions bottled up like the whole world is sitting on a time bomb, when its actually as simple as "Love ur Neighbour as ur self"
You can't love urself and Kill urself,
If u can't kill yourself, then u shouldn't kill ur neighbour cos you are to love ur Neighbour as your self. Meaning to say urself is your Neighbour and your Neighbour is yourself in love.

This was what albert einstein had to say about love..

“Love brings much happiness, much more so than pining for someone brings pain.”

—Albert Einstein --- To Marie Winteler, April 21,1896, CPAE Vol.1, Doc. 18

I also remember he said something like the world being a bunch of Religious people and not one godly person.
Religion segregates us, religion divides us,

Forgetting the old saying.. United we stand, divided we fall. Religion divides us to fall.

Until we are united, we can't stand, and if religion still exist we can never stand.. You can love ur neighbour outside religion.

Take religion away and u take violence away.

Islam and christainity is a way to divide us..
Let's put religion away and let's be one people and see what other thing gives us reasons to kill ourselves.

I'm a strong advocate of Abolishing Religion.
Religion is a tool for segregation.
Religion is one of the greatest lie ever told to mankind.. If religion is abolished,
If there are no christains and there are no muslims, there would be no basis for rivalry on what on god said or what d other god didn't say. There will be just an Almighty God.
But we can see this God outside Christainity and Islam..

There is so much Unrest in the world today all with a religious Undertone..

“I would absolutely refuse any direct or indirect war service and would try to persuade my friends to do the same, regardless of the reasons for the cause of a war.”

—Albert Einstein --- From Die Friedensbewegung, ed., Kurt Lenz and Walter Fabian (1922)

One reason for wars today is religion,
Even in islam, Shite's muslims fight with Sunni muslims as in Syria and Lebanon.

Jews fight with Islam as in Isreal and Palestine's

America and Iraq, Iran, Pakistan..

Christains and Muslims in Nigeria..

Religion is a very big cause of war..
I will persuade anybody willing to hear.

Religion would bring mankind to its knees cos its always going to be attack and counter-attack till thy kingdom come..

Let's Abolish Religion.
We can Abolish Religion.
Yes we Can!
Politics › Re: Jonathan May Skip Party’s Primaries In 2015 Race by PStacks(m): 8:02pm On Jul 09, 2013
Everyday I fall more and more in love with the President, gentle and soft spoken but still has a way of passing his message.. Always with a smile on his face, always talking jovialy..
The most important thing is that the message has been passed.
Out of everything in this piece, it was only GEJ that intrigued me.

You are to face ur work.. Not the opposition. The oppositions work is to oppose and its ok. Its healthy for democracy..

If they don't do primaries its their business, provided they will not say there is no General elections..

If they field an incumbent the electorate are not ok with, and the opposition does primaries and fields a better candidate, there's chance the opposition will our run them..
They wouldn't do what won't Pay them..
Anyone they like let them do, provided elections would be free and fair and d best man wins and the people's vote counts. That's it.
Primary or no primary is solely their business. Provided they will not impose on me what their party agrees and my vote is d decidal, even if they impose incumbent on their party
Politics › Re: Five Boko-Haram Suspects Sentenced To Life Imprisonment by PStacks(m): 2:27pm On Jul 09, 2013
There is no such thing as a small sin or a big sin. A crime is a crime. If boko haram can be sentenced to life imprison, den corrupt public officials should face d same..
Let's be careful as a Nation not to use double standards..
We have forgotten that Boko haram is an offspring of the Neglect of the Development of the north.. If northern Nigerian were being empowered with education the way the south has been, Boko haram wouldn't gain acceptance, but since these people don't have access to basic necessity of life, they don't even know what education is, so they can see education as Haram, ofcourse u don't know what it is. People fight what they can't explain so, they can fight western education cos they are not educated,
We must be very careful not to throw the "Baby along with the bath water"

If money ment for development of the north has been used to develope the north, people would be engaged and not have time to engaged in boko haram.

Cutting off the head is never the cure to an headache.. These boko haram people needs genuine rehabilitation and empowerment.

I don't know if its a good course of action to imprison them, but I know some people somewhere stole money ment to better the life of a whole lot, and when these people didn't c a way, dey resulted to violence.

We must treat the Ailment and not the symptoms.

I will never suppourt Boko Haram, but some of these people might think they are fighting a just course without knowing they have been led to believe what is not.

When you send JTF to crush Boko haram, they ran away and re-grouped. There was calm for a while, then they launched an offensive on innocent Boarding house children..

Nao u are imprisoning them.. I'm of the opinion that, what ever is remaining of them would only get more hardened..

In Syria, Free syrian army are fighting The Al-saad Regime, Lebanon Hezbollah joined the regime to fight the free syrian Army, just this morning a Bomb went off in Beruit Lebanon, a very busy place in lebanon and a major hold of Hezbollah..

Attack and Counter-Attack. JTF and Boko haram would be playing Hide and seek, attack and Counter-Attack, while innocent people lost their live..

All I'm just saying is that we shouldn't attack the Boko haram menace without attacking the cause of the Menace it self and let's not have double standards in our "One Nigeria"

The law can catch up with the lowly but every big man is bigger than d law..
That is not the Nigeria we want.

Fairness, equality, Justice, Freedom and Peace.

Imagine u had family in one of the school children killed in the boarding house in Yobe, Would u rejoice over this judgment or would u still be mourning ur loss?

Would this judgement be seen as good enough for the loss u have incurred or is it just a way to cry over already spilled milk.,

I believe there can better engage this Boko haram people to settle this thing once and for all, rather than use force, and we keep having attack and counter attack.

Let's not follow the trend in the world, Syria is hot, Lebabnon is hot, Turkey is just cooling off a lil bit, Egypt has picked flames, Bombing in Mogadishu Somalia today, this thing is happening world all over,

Because we are unique and strategically positioned as worlds most populous black nation, we can settle our differences in a way and manner no other part of the world has choosen. More violence only begets more violence..

U are inspecting a secretariat.. Have you inspected what is in their Head? Have you examined their Ideology?
Have you examined the records of key members that would take key positions in their govt sholud eventually APC wins?
Have you examined the content of their character?
Have you exmined what they have to offer the electorate?
Is it the secretariat that would resume in the office of the Federal Rebulic of Nigeria or a Politician?
What has inspecting the sectariat got to do with the person to assume helms of affairs in this country?

Sports › Re: Keshi To Oliseh: You Were Nobody When You Started by PStacks(m): 12:34pm On Jul 09, 2013
I think Keshi is right. Everybody is a nobody when they have to start out..
If u were somebody, u wouldn't even hav to start out at all!
Home based footballers have the zeal to play better at international competitions so they can make their mark, unlike already made established Europe base starts who already has it all, but Keshi should also know that international exposure and experience is needed from the players abroad that doesn't see themselves as too big for the Clarion call of their father land..
Lastly, Keshi should know that Criticism in not for Condemnation but for construction..
Home based players and Professional footballers should find a meeting point.
In The Brazillian team that won the Confederation's cup,
Neymar was homebased
Marcelo plays for Real Madrid, hence not home based,
Dani Alves plays away at Barcelona,
It won't do Nigeria any wrong if Home-based players are inter-mixed with the humble and good players that are eligible and willing to play for the Eagles.

That super Eagles team at d moment is very good, I just can't point out what is missing in the team..
Politics › Re: I Mistakenly Fired 7 Shots, Policeman Accused Of Killing 3 by PStacks(m): 12:13pm On Jul 09, 2013
These people are not properly trained. If truly its a mistake then its an expensive mistake.
Somebody must take the heat from such mistakes so they don't occur again.
One too many mistakes in Nigeria.

When people die, they don't mistakenly come back to life.

If there was a mistake that could bring dead people back to life, then its ok when such mistakes are made but LIFE doesn't have duplicates, so such mistakes are too expensive. If investigations reveals its an innocent mistake, then I think, since no one is perfect he could be forgiven, but if its not a mistake, people should be accountable for their actions.
I feel for the police men, I also feel for the people that have died.

I believe Nigerians are the ones to save the world. Its not an accident God in his infinite mercies made us the most populous black nation on planet earth. There must be a reason for it but unfortunately we must get our acts right Before playing on the world stage or B4 our voices can be heard and taken seriously. Charity begins at home.. We must put our house in order B4 we seek to adress the wrong in the world! Nigeria must look inward, purge herself of every corrupt practices, be clean and come out to voice against Same-sex Marriage. Its barbaric and unthinkable.
America has adopted Gay rights, same as UK and France and world all over there seem to be going crazy to this gay thing...
This is demonisation of the world..
We must speak against it, we must fight against it.

Is it not an irony that as corrupt as Nigeria is, this is the only thing we all agree is against our Tradition, our Customs and our Norms but the western world wants to push it down our throat by force.. We would resist it.

The other day I was watching BBC world News and David Cameron UK prime minister said categorically that they would talk GEJ into adopting it.
If u don't agree with what ever they want to impose on you, next thing is sanctions.. Let them impose any sanctions they want to. We won't bulge to inhumane, and indescent practices..
The next day I heard UK has introduced a Bond for UK visa application, it might not have anything to do with Gay marriage or the killing of a british soldier in woolich london, but its a form of sanction..
Nigerians should pls brace themselves for any sanctions from the west..
We will not accept Gay rights in this country, we stand against it, we say no to it, we forbid it, its not in our culture, its not our tradition, its not in our social values and ethical Norms..

Of all the challenges facing this "One Nigeria" we refuse to add Gay-rights to our numerous problems..

God Bless Nigeria and the Good people of the Federal Republic as we say NO! To Gayism and same sex marriage.

There is always a price to be paid.
To enjoy Gains, u must endure pains.

A pregnant mum must endure the pains of labour to give birth to that bouncing baby boy we all want to c.

Its difficult for the egyptians today, but It would be more than sweet for them tommorow
I can assure you that after this, people will be more civilised and have much more respect for each other and Egypt would be a better place for it.
Sacrifices has to be made, people must stand for what they believe in.
Yes Morsi was elected thru the ballot box, but he didn't tell the people he would create another constitution when he resumes office.
Yes egypt is in a precarious situation, but I can tell your categorically that after the storm comes calm. After the night comes morning,
Darkness may endure thru the night but there's definitely gon b joy in the morning. People are making sacrifices today so that un-born generations would reap the reward tomorow.

Don't get me wrong! I don't support violence and would never stand for it, but when u get pushed to the Wall, there would be no other place u can be pushed any longer other than to bounce out.

Egyptians can't fight a dictator only to have another dictator. Honestly, its dicey and I'm confused about this one, I don't want to be seen as encouraging violence but I think its d best course of action..

Its just like Boko haram holding the whole nigeria to ransom and say, no western education and Nigerai must become a muslim country. That is a goose chase and a wild dream at that..
That would have to be subjected to a referendum, opinion polls would have to be conducted, and when d majority says No to Boko Haram and Minority want to super impose their will on majority, then the evitable becomes inevitable.

Nobdy wants to die, I don't want to die too. I Don't like war either , but sincerely, if its time for War, its Time for war.. Nigerians must declare war on Boko Haram.

Whatever their ideology, who ever can wake up and go to open fire on Innocent children in boarding school and bomb their school is sick in the head, and such bastards are never to live in a decent society where people live. They should be in a zoo or somewhere.

Oh! Dear egypt, bear the pains today, for the gains that await you tomorow is nothing close to the pains u bear today unlike some other country that would live with their pains forever without no gains.

(Pls not, I'm not a religious fanatic, I condem any practice that is wrong in Islam and I condemn anything I perceive wrong in Christianity, I believe Islam is a Noble and peacefull religion, I respect descent muslims and Christians but av choosen to look from outside their perspectives, I am not an Atheist, I believe there is a GOD out there who is mightier and Bigger than Man and would never require the services of Man to kill in the name of God or kill for God) Nigeria is a country filled with churches and Mosques and we are yet backward and very religious but religiously intolerant.. Its either some people are lying to us in the name of Religion or we read the bible and quran upside down..
But in the mean while, I'm a strong advocate of Abolishing religion so peace can reign.

If religion is abolished, I want to see a reson why someone would open fire on innocent women and children other than in the name of Religion or in the guise of killing for god.

Electricity is d power we need to empower our youth. No amount of jobs can survive on this less than 4000 mega watts nigeria has..

Is it not electricity that made textlies and factories to lock down in kaduna. Is it not cost of running generator most service providers attribute to the reason y services are exorbitantly high.

Politics › Re: Yobe Shuts Schools Over Boko-Haram Attack by PStacks(m): 9:38pm On Jul 07, 2013
emmatony: By Adekunle Aliyu with agency report
The Yobe state government on Sunday ordered the closure of all secondary schools after a massacre that saw suspected Islamist extremists kill 42 people in a gun and bomb attack on a boarding school.

Yobe state governor Ibrahim Gaidam has “directed that all secondary schools in the state be closed down from Monday 8th July 2013 until a new academic session begins in September,” a government statement said.

Also the Senate President David Mark on Sunday stressed the need to put in place measures to protect children against terrorists.

He made the call via a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Paul Mumeh, in Abuja.

Mark, who condemned that the gruesome murder of students and a teacher of a secondary school in Mamudo, near Potiskum, called on the terrorists to give peace a chance.

The senate president described the killings, which were purportedly carried out by members of the Boko Haram sect, as “barbaric and wicked’’.

“Even in war situations, children and women are protected. Killing children is akin to cutting down the future of a people.

“This is inhuman, barbaric and unacceptable to any right-thinking member of the society.

“For no reason, the lives of these promising children were needlessly cut down by the heartless people. This cannot be a way of life; enough of this bloodshed,’’ he said.

Mark quoted some verses from the Holy Bible to buttress his argument that children deserved protection under any circumstances whatsoever.

“Mathew 18: 10 states `take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for in heaven their angels always behold the face of my father which is in heaven.

“Mark 9:42 states `whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him hat a millstone were hanged about his neck and he were cast into the sea.’’

Mark, however, appealed to the security agencies to step up their surveillance and monitoring activities to halt the trend and bring the perpetrators to justice.

The senate president gave the assurance that the National Assembly would continue to give priority attention to budgetary allocations to the security agencies to enable them to carry out their duties without hitches.

He commiserated with the government and people of Yobe, especially the bereaved families, over the incident.

Mark urged the perpetrators of the violence to use the numerous windows of dialogue and peace, which the government had opened, to express their grievances.

“Mathew 18: 10 states `take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for in heaven their angels always behold the face of my father which is in heaven.

“Mark 9:42 states `whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him hat a millstone were hanged about his neck and he were cast into the sea.’’

Mark, however, appealed to the security agencies to step up their surveillance and monitoring activities to halt the trend and bring the perpetrators to justice.

The senate president gave the assurance that the National Assembly would continue to give priority attention to budgetary allocations to the security agencies to enable them to carry out their duties without hitches.

He commiserated with the government and people of Yobe, especially the bereaved families, over the incident.

Mark urged the perpetrators of the violence to use the numerous windows of dialogue and peace, which the government had opened, to express their grievances.

I love the Edo state Governor so very much. grin
But the Article had "My Money" wey too many times and it got me wondering..

Is it "My Money" or "Edo peoples money" or better still, "our Money" or "My States Allocation" if it even has to be personalised.

I wish the government can release my own money too, I'l be very happy. PCC pls take note. Thank you.
