I absolutely concur. I am privy to some of your posits. You definitely must be an insider, lol.

Felt same shock and surprise passing by way after church hours on Sunday, and seeing the fanfare. Was more utterly shocked to see an after party jamboree with a guest artiste.

All is well. We should live right by God, and not by men. It is appointed unto men once to die…. (Hebrews 9 vs 27)!

Awesome! Round peg in a round hole.

He is an extremely competent and qualified OAU Accounting First Class and Doctorate degree holder to lead FIRS.

Lazy youth, go and face your studies I beg you. It's rewarding to be serious and humble in life.

God bless Nigeria for ever 🇳🇬.Check my signature for free stuffs!

Absolutely.

Prof, as he was fondly called by his course mates in Accounting. He gave free tutorials to his mates and was really loved.

From very humble beginnings to his stint at PnG as a student to his meteoric rise as Commissioner of Finance (when I last saw him).

Zacch has made us proud. We wish him remarkable success.

Please absolve yourself of any blame. The meekest of men may have acted exactly the way you did.

Your story transcends the simple narration, it reflects the consequence of bad governance, policies and the attendant impact on the masses.

One day, One day, may you revert with a new beautiful story, may you find a better job than the one you were scheduled to attend an interview for.

Stay well!

My dear friend.
Nations, right from the dawn of human civilization, erect walls of defense, and expend an enormous amount of human and financial resources to protect themselves from neighbors, unfriendly neighbors, ambitious neighbors, even friendly neighbors who may one day turn unfriendly.
When your neighbor, even a friendly neighbor, begins to cohort with your adversary, and begins to pile up weapons, simple survival instinct should dictate that you take action to nip it in the bud, first by loudly protesting, and then if necessary, take proactive offensive action , for your own safety.
We all do it everyday in smaller ways.
History is replete with uncountable examples of nations taking pre-emptive actions to subdue the ambitions and potential threats of their neighboring states.

And Talking of pre-emptive military action, was it not some years ago, that the US and the entire NATO gang , including Ukraine, traveled thousands of miles across oceans to attack another country, a sovereign nation that was not its neighbor, on the pretext of stockpiling Weapons of Mass Destruction, and at that time perceived to be a threat to Western civilization? Look at how many countries joined the coalition to attack a sovereign nation because the greatest military power in the world felt threatened by a nation 10,000 miles away.

Now, imagine how Russia feels having US and NATO sneaking in weapons of mass destruction at its backyard.

Very well said�

Yours was badly thought out analogy, a very quack one.

If by your analogy, you divorced your wife, but she was still living in the next room besides yours, you would definitely not allow her to welcome a strange man carrying a machine gun into her room next to yours, talkless of that man being a rival who had threatened you many times before.

Mr Kingsnairaland’s analysis was brilliant.

However, Mr Karemarealty288’s input, in my opinion is right. The key consideration is sovereignty.

Russia and Ukraine are neither sharing same bed nor room nor Apartment figuratively. They simply share well delineated properties, each entitled to rights to association as deemed necessary.

While it may seem very logical to expose her secrets, I strongly implore you not to. We do not get even vide health related taunts. Nothing will happen to her to warrant the exposure. You have been amazing and adorably supportive.

Forge on and have faith. The good Lord will resuscitate immense blessings in your life. At the appointed time, she will look back and affirm she indeed maltreated a good man. Her confessions will be from her mouth.

Stay blessed!

This man you too Dey fear... there’s dangers of everything as long as you search for it online , even painting a house. But what you must understand is that bloggers will always try to ensure traffic to their blogs. Like why would someone search for “dangers of painting a house”? Guess what my friend... it’s all over the net. Maybe we should stop painting our houses too right? cheesy

Lol. It has nothing to do with fear, but sustainable design, human health and environmentally suitable ecosystem and habitat.

Please note that PVC (not to be confused with uPVC) is the worst plastic on planet earth.

In similitude to asbestos, these uncontrolled dangerous products and their likes contain agents such as carcinogens, teratogens and mutagens among other harmful chemicals such as Bisphenol A, dioxin, phthalates, phosgene, Dichloro-diphenyl trichloroethane, Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and Polybrominated diphenyl ethers which are largely responsible for endocrine disruptions, respiratory diseases, transgenerational reproductive harm, cancers, infertility, abnormal genital and reproductive development among other severe health impacts (eventually lead to high mortality rate and reduced life expectancy) on a life cycle assessment basis and extensive exposure to human health.

There are environmentally friendly and compliant paints with the apposite ecolabel. These are not harmful.

You may consider new product lines with ecolabels ( within and beyond the ISO 14000 schema) such as Green Label, Green Label Plus, Green Seal, Greenguard, WaterSense, Energy Star to mention a few.

Let’s jointly contribute to keeping our environment safe.

Good night and have a blessed week!

@Op,

Polyurethane is suspected to off-gas toxins with alleged harmful health impacts during its product life.

We should be careful of its use, except we are sure of the composition and affirm there are no adverse impacts to the ecosystem.

There are indeed 3 complete sessions between 1973 and 1976. The 4th year/session ends 1977.

I trust Obaseki to aptly clarify the observations.

The ongoing imbroglio is shameful. I think being apolitical works. Politicians obviously care less about good governance.

Politics / Re: COVID-19: Can Africa Afford Lockdowns? - Charles Soludo by realborn(m): 9:21am On Apr 24, 2020
Simply put, return to the Lagos Model (pre-absolute cessation by FG) but with an entrepreneurial cognitive thought process of grabbing the opportunity to provide solutions for the entire Africa by making and exporting face masks, sanitizers and related elements.

Well said Prof. Soludo.

Nonetheless, because of the nonchalance of Nigerians and high probability of gross indiscipline, and the viral nature of COVID-19, the option of relaxation is not an outright way forward. It could lead to a geometric progression.

In my candid opinion, the most plausible approach is to identify local supplements and produce that assist with stemming the risk of infection in addition to safe and hygienic practices. As it is now, no one is sharing any information on methods used to manage the situation with patients who are now negative.

This can be combined with a partial lockdown and monitored for a defined period for success.

Unfortunately, those who need the supposed economic stimulus the most have been without shelter for decades. No one saw them. No one cared.

They had and have nothing to cook with!

For them it has been an unyielding epidemic situation.

Sincerely, it is time for all tiers of Government to really rethink.

Nb:
As a short term palliative, LASG should cook the meals and effectively distribute to the homeless. They know where they are. They should orientate them about COVID-19 and all they need to know; especially, staying away from the RICH!!!

Most of these people in this category have heard nothing, know nothing because they have no one, no access to devices nor the media....

Nb2:
As a long term palliative, the pandemic just has to be stopped or curbed and everyone and everything returned to normalcy. Immediate collaboration with entities working astutely on swift testing kits and vaccines is strongly advised.

There is no supporting data to identify who needs the economic stimulus the most. It may be shocking when the it comes to fore that majority/most of the working populace have zero savings and can barely survive without the next month’s pay. The impact may be significantly devastating.

Hunger may drive everyone back to the streets. Survival barely knows Social Distancing; the effect thereafter is not to be desired.

Above all lessons should be learnt from the events of the day; post mortem conducted. Nigeria and Africa can no longer remain passive!
