We know.... But I pray ur children suffer thesame fate

This iS whhat they call 'Don't eaT ur tomorrow today'

WHat about the one that was killed in Rivers? Rivers is part of North I guess. Hypocrite

Sweetlemon:
Wow. So I'm not the only one who saw difficult times ahead after the elections?
Thank God you hug this out. A clear reminder and proof that Buhari never promised miracles but he indeed declare that it won't be business as usual for the wicked cabals. With that alone he has my votes a million times over.

Nice comment

A student of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, Bak-Abasi Umoh, who went missing for 10 days in the state, has been found.

Her mother told our correspondent over the phone that she returned to Ile-Ife, Osun State on Tuesday, December 22.

“She told us she was robbed of her phone and all the money she had,” her mother, Elizabeth, explained.



The girl’s mother said she was thankful that no harm had come to her daughter after being incommunicado for 10 days.

Saturday PUNCH learnt that when her family in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, could not reach her on the phone, they called her school friends, who said the last time they saw her on campus was on December 12.

As of the time our correspondent spoke with Bak-Abasi’s mother on Wednesday, she said her daughter was already on her way back home from Ile-Ife.

Her parents have been tight-lipped about the details of what really happened to her and where she was for those 10 days.

It would be recalled that when Bak-Abasi, said to be a Law student of OAU, was declared missing a week ago, her pictures circulated on the internet as her classmates and friends pleaded for information that might help in locating her.

Meanwhile, the Law students’ association of OAU said it has no evidence that she is a member of the department.

According to the President of the Law Student Society, OAU, said in a post on Facebook, “The news about this lost lady has been a subject of concern for Ife Law students as she claimed to be part of us but all evidence shows she is not.

“Our concern was only that a Nigerian was lost and needed to be found rather than a Law student. I salute the effort of the entirety of the law students for the love and concern in the search.”

PDP, the evil party that dominated Nigeria's political landscape. What a pathetic party!

I tot the Biafra woman was meant to be on the street protesting for the liberation of Biafra people.. Shameless shegoat

And so what.... How many of the students wrote the exam themselves.... Welcome to Nigeria, a country. Where illegality thrives

To hell with MTN, stewpeed network

Confused elements. Biafra within Nigeria ko, within Niger ni

BALLOSKI:
You have something hidden in you that's bothering you, just know what it's , and you'll be good.

Just take a break or 'leave' from your work and rest.





Learn to see those around you or those you have found yourself with as mere mortals like you;they have nothing that you don't have. So, feel free to speak and make sure your voice is not heard as noise.


What am I saying?


1.Identify yourself
2. Respect yourself
3. Know what you are good at
4. Take control and liberate yourself from the .psychological shackles
4. Rest! Rest!! Rest!!!
5. Hangout with chicks and go to the club with your guys

Thanks so bro. I appreciate!

I experience nervousness whenever I find myself among people especially those that I am not familiar with. I sometimes end up with a shaky mouth whenever I want to speak. This has been happening to me for the past 4 years but it seems to have graduated to something else. A bit of encounter with even one person is enough to keep nervousness in me for the whole day.
After a hectic day at work with tiredness, a normal body is expected to have a sound sleep. Mine is different. If I manage to sleep around 11pm, my eyes would be wide ope around 2-3am. I have done all I could to change the situation but all my effort have been met with futility. Little things now put a long lasting fear in me. I am afraid I may lose my life anytime soon if my condition is not changed.
I was told by a friend that it could be General Anxiety Disorder (GAD).
Pls, is there anybody with useful tips that can change my condition? Thanks in anticipation!

We know they are ppl from the yEAST na.....

Vice President Osinbajo, Here’s A List Of Outstanding Youths In Nigeria (1)

Following the submission and unveiling of President Muhammadu Buhari’s two ministerial lists to the Senate, Nigerians have largely been at a crossroads on whether the proposed cabinet meets the change agenda of President Buhari. Truth be told, the 37 man cabinet list has a number of proven technocrats, public servants and integrity driven politicians to give Nigeria the desired change its citizens crave for and any criticism on the #List based on the issue of competence and integrity is self serving and quite immature.

However, one thing is wrong with the list and it is in the fact that in the names submitted, President Buhari did not find it fit to appoint a couple of youths as ministers. As a matter of fact the youngest member of the cabinet, Abubakar Malami is two years away from clocking 50! My grievance with President Buhari is that he seems to have forgotten that the awareness and the votes that gave him victory at the last polls came majorly from the youths who engaged the shambolic administration of former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and showed Nigerians that he, Buhari was a far better leader than Jonathan.   For me, President Buhari’s refusal to appoint a youth as a Minister is an attestation to the continuous marginalization of the Nigerian youth, not because we are not qualified or fit for such, but because the Nigerian elite have so conspired amongst themselves to keep the Nigerian youth out of the picture.

But my grievance was further aggravated when a tweet from the twitter handle of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo read as thus, “That we could not find some outstanding Nigerian youths to form cabinet is a challenge to the Nigerian youth to brace up #MinisterialScreening.” The tweet instantly drew condemnation as a number of Nigerians online picketed the Vice President describing his tweet as outrageous.

I for one deem such a tweet as irresponsible and unbecoming of Professor Osinbajo, a man I had known and admired as a pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church of God before his emergence as VP. The tweet was most unfortunate as yours sincerely is surely confounded by Osinbajo’s logic that in a country as big as Nigeria, with a youth population of over 60,000,000 million persons, we could not get a youth as minister.

It is therefore my purpose to assist Vice President Osinbajo by throwing up a list of outstanding Nigerian youths for his consideration.

Taiwo Franklin Akerele – A management consultant and a graduate of the University of Benin (1999) with a post graduate degree from the University of Ibadan (2006) . With added qualifications   from the Carleton University, Ottawa Canada with a partial funding from the International Development Association and also qualification in Knowledge Management from the prestigious Stellenbosch University Cape Town South Africa sponsored by the Afribank Group. Mr Akerele has consulted for a number of organizations including the World Bank Group on the South-South Exchange program for Nigeria, Colombia, Kenya, Jamaica and South Africa, and also the UK-Department for International Development (DFid) through the Lagos Ajegunle Community Project and the Norwegian Funded Oil Revenue Management Program through the African Network for Environmental and Economic Justice.

Gbenga Sesan – Sesan is the Executive Director of Paradigm Initiative Nigeria (PIN). Sesan trained as an Electronic and Electrical Engineer at Obafemi Awolowo University. He had stints at Lagos Business School, New York Group for Technology Transfer, Oxford University, Harvard University, Stanford University, Santa Clara University and University of the Pacific. An accomplished ICT guru, Sesan has made his mark in the field of information and communications technology.

Toyosi Akerele of Rise Networks Fame is indeed a goldfish. This young lady has spent most of her adult years building the Nigerian youth through Rise Networks, an organization which focuses on creating intellectual development and capacity building programs for young Nigerians between 16 and 30.

Kazeem Adio – Kazeem Ademola Adio was one time former Secretary to the Osun State Government during Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola’s tenure. Adio is a multitalented and passionate administrator per excellence. Adio holds a degree in Accounting, Masters in Business Administration and an M.Sc in International Marketing Management.

Chima Anyaso – The Caades Oil and Gas boss is another young man who deserved a call to serve his country.

Ayodele Ayowale — Former student activist and one time Council Chairman, Amuwo Odofin Local Government Area in Lagos State. Ayo as a student activist and council chairman did remarkably well, touching lives and generating ideas that were previously unknown in the area of governance.

Daniel Onjeh – Daniel Donald Onyirofe Onjeh holds a B.A. (Double Honours) in Political Science & Economics from the University of Ghana, Legon. He was elected President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) in 2002, and subsequently President, West Africa Students’ Union (WASU) in 2006.

Sometime in 2013, I remember asking my SS 3 students the professions they will like to venture into. I was astonished when one of them mentioned 'Teaching'. The inquisitive part of me posed another question to her as to why she would like to venture into teaching profession considering the fact that the profession has been bastardized. Her simple response was " Impacting knowledge in people is what gives me joy and it is exactly what I will like to do". The prospective teacher was not only a brilliant student but one of the best in her class. As expected, I encouraged her.

It is unimaginable what the noble profession has been reduced to especially in this part of the world. There is no gainsaying the fact that most people teach because its the only thing they can lay their hands on. The question you ask yourself at this point is ' where have we gotten it wrong?' This piece is not to answer that question but to salute the courage of those that have taken it upon themselves to train and develop young people to become responsible adults despite the harsh conditions inherent in the profession.

Needless to say that being a teacher is very demanding. The herculean task of writing lesson notes, the rudiments of impacting difficult concepts in learners with varying learning abilities (fast learners, average learners, slow learners and extremely low learners). But at the end of the month, his salary is not even enough to pay his bills. His reward is in heaven abi? While a lawyer rides in the latest car, a medical doctor can afford to travel to any part of the world for his vacation, an engineer can afford to build a mansion.... What then happens to a teacher? He grapples with debt? What could lawyers, doctors, engineers, pilots, pharmacists, accountants, public administrators, political scientists, linguists etc have become without a set of people called teachers?

As the world celebrates teachers today, take time to appreciate your teachers. Remember, you can read this post because somebody somewhere has sacrificed a lot for you! God bless you as you do so!!!!
