The US of course will supply the weapons, invariably putting back the money into their economy, while Ukraine would fight with the weapons, and destroy their own country.  1 Like |

Part of the reason the government of this country grounds the nation to a halt on election days is, they know if they allow movement and economic activities on election days, total voters won't add up to even 3 million. 1 Like |

Hear this from a neutral. If rumours of PDP zoning its Presidential ticket to the North is anything to go by, I think that the party is set for yet another disaster in 2023. In spite of all President Buhari's misdeeds and poor handling of the country from 2015-2019, the APC was able to attain 25% votes in some PDP enclaves. Majority of Atiku's votes came from the South (Atiku's perceived strong hold). Now, you have to factor in that most of Atiku's votes came in as a spite on the Buhari candidacy. In 2023, the calculation will be very different, and I don't think the PDP is taking cognisance of this fact. I feel their decision to zone the Presidential ticket to the North is predicated on a fear of losing, and not on sound political calculations. Because, in the last 7 years the game shifted from the North to the South. No well meaning Nigerian, North or South would vote a northern candidate. And from way I see it, most of the PDP governors couldn't care less which party wins in 2023. After all, they have the senate they can always run for. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Any activity that gratifies the flesh in any sort of way is usually difficult to put a stop to. Only Jesus Christ can empower one to stop them. And even as a born again person, if one doesn't deliberately kill the flesh and its desires victory over these habits would be nothing but a farfetched dream. 44 Likes 7 Shares |

Actually, I was the nice person. This happened in 2010. Two years after my family relocated to PH from Obinze, Owerri, I went back there for my Jamb exam. En route, I noticed a lady by my right hand just taking a cursory glance at her photocard. I don't know what moved me to ask, but I proceeded and inquired about her center. She told me, and I asked her if she knew anyone in the city she could bunk with for the night. She was reluctant to say, but she eventually told me she knew no one, and that her plan was to find an Assembly of God's church close to her center and spend the night over there. This was around 6pm or so, and we were barely out of Mile 1 in PH. I told her the plan was risky, because the exact location of her centre was yet unknown to her, and that no one would want to open their doors to her by the time we would arrive the city. I gave her the option to come with me. She rebuffed the idea with a mean scoff and a shrugged shoulder. I insisted because, I was aware of the mess she was getting herself into. Somehow, she found reason and went with me. She was taken aback when I alighted at Obinze military barracks. That lifted her confidence. I took her to my former neighbour, left her there and went over to my place of residence. By the time I would return, she had gotten used to everyone and was dressed in work clothes cooking with the woman's children who were grown up girls. She was just staring at me the whole time, wondering how lucky she was, I guess. The next day, after the exam she called home and everyone in the house spoke with me, pouring blessings on me. She later told me she would like to stay an extra day, her reason being the place was full of fun stuff to do. All through, I kept coming by to see her and even gave her transport fare back. That girl would have married me if I had kept in touch. Lost my sim, phone and everything bearing her phone number the next year. I changed number and that was the end. Sweet memories. 16 Likes |

You're quite observant. I'm not saying that the manner with which kids were raised in those days was particularly perfect, but this tilting to the Western way is dangerous. The results are there for all to see. Our family system is fractured and, I don't even think there's a way back from here. The change is irreversible. It's only a matter of time before a 10 year old would address his father's mate by his first name. The difference in social orientation between Nigerian kids born in 2000 upwards and downwards is so different that, you just don't understand it anymore. 80s and 90s kids know to greet seniors, stand up, if you're sitting down, before shaking an elderly person. They know to leave the room when elders are engaged in a discussion. 2000s kids don't know anything about these things because the system that's supposed to introduce these etiquettes to them is destroyed. Parents now just want to buy every gadget available for their kids so they can be distracted enough to give them some peace and quiet. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Anyone asking to buy your old Facebook account is out to use it for fraud purposes. Old accounts are like those old pendulum clocks that was much sought after few years back. They have something, like a security feature that makes impersonation easier compared to the newly created ones. In essence, don't ever sell for any reason.

It's common practice in Rivers State since 2015! Not only when trying to get jobs but contracts, too. Rivers state is dreadful at the moment in this regard. Initially it was just securing government appointments and contracts that demanded joining an occult group, then it trickled down to even private companies. People are getting fired from their jobs for refusing to join cult groups daily. It's hard to secure contract upwards of ₦5m without someone demanding you join one group or another, unless God is with you. It's just terrible how Rivers State has degenerated to this clannish state. 93 Likes 9 Shares |

Sometimes, I just feel that these politicians make these public statements for the sake of plausible deniability and to whip up public emotional support to themselves. As President of the Nigerian Senate, what has Mr. Lawan done with the resources at his disposal to help the security challenges the country is faced with? How many security improvement bills has he, or his support bloc presented for deliberations in the house? Enough of this playing to the gallery any time a tragic development arises. Security won't improve by merely making public statements. 4 Likes 1 Share |

It's no longer news the lack of political will among the ruling class to do anything about the raging poverty in the country. These people do not want the average Nigerian to escape poverty for political expedience. Any "empowerment" program they come up with is merely just playing to the gallery. The intent isn't to empower. People who had the heart to hoard palliatives? God will save this country one day. 6 Likes 1 Share |
