It's getting MESSIER!
Leaked Audio recordings of a Minister of the Federal Government and DG of the President Campaign Organization proving his UNPATRIOTIC AND DISLOYAL UTTERANCES.
While we await reaction from the Presidency and the Minister himself.....
I knew it.....Ameachi is never to be trusted down South and up North.

WOW! This is getting INTERESTING. For one that is definitely Amaechi talking and not in 2014.
Reno is "shaking the table"
In another news......Amaechi will be in the Presidential Campaign inauguration which he a Director.
I dunno how the Cabal will take this but I know touching Amaechi will be delicate....
That guy talks anyhow sha....how can the South forget what he did to GEJ and how can PMB forget what he brought in...to achieve 2015?
Wike, Secondus and even gentleman Abe should be laughing by now.

Rolling out the " Killer Mercenaries"

Yes! Yes!! And YES!!!
When I got married. I was living in a one room (face me I face you) family house. With B.Sc and a 12K teaching job. My wife who also just finished her NYSC joined me in that room after our wedding.
As expected, my siblings started picking on her and together we pooled some resources to set out. After looking for self contained apartment and it's cost challenges in PH. We met a kind Land Lord who offered us a store in front of his compound with the toilet behind the main house.
I had my first child in that store and my other bigger breaks began from that point.
Today I live in my own house in Abuja with the same wife and 3 kids.
Actually I'm glad we started that humble. And the Woman also believed we will move up.
How else do you know your life partner now that you are in a self contained apartment?
When you up how will she know how you started?

On Made In China 2025.

On several occasions I run across these Chinese kids here in Georgia Tech, what surprises me is the type of courses they study. Almost all of them under Chinese government scholarship here to study in Americas best universities are studying courses that have to do with the future.

They study artificial intelligence, systems science and engineering, and hard core courses for tommorows World, their social lives are zero and they always hold sophisticated telephones. Very suprizing, but China is a country that thinks ahead and every Chinese is a potential suspect.

Have you ever heard of the concept, made in China 2025? It is Chinese Development blueprint that had sent fear around the world. It is meant to transform China from a labor intensive economy that makes toys, cloths, pharmaceutical to one that engineers advanced products like robots electric cars, and space explorations.

The Chinese are believed to be the most determined species of the human race. Once they set their minds to achieve a goal nothing stops them.

Earlier today, I listened to a commentary where the presenter clearly stated that the Chinese state would not mind stealing technology and intellectual property just to meet their goal.
I also read elsewhere, that Chinese kids are sent in droves to study unique courses like artificial intelligence, information systems, system science, robotic engineering, systems engineering in American schools. Surprisingly this is a deliberate state policy. You never see a Chinese student on scholarship studying arts, social sciences or religion.

What is most troubling is that they study these courses in America and United Kingdom top ivy leagues. They are here on full state sponsored scholarships.

While the economies of the world including the United States are exporting production distribution and exchange in an era of globalization, China is pursuing an agenda of localizing production.

They promote a policy to get almost 70 percent of their production value chain domiciled locally. This is very dangerous because in the future the entire world will answer to China in terms of production. My concern with China is how can a country and a people get it so right? Always ahead of the rest. Always scheming at a time our own kids are holidaying and eating barbecue in foreign restaurants.

The more I study the Chinese, the more I fall in love with these guys. They have leaders that think. They have leaders that plan for tommorow. More interesting, even children as young as five years in China know in every transaction they have to eat up their opponents or be eaten.

The big question: Can we ever have a country built on values? Unfortunately, this is our biggest handicap in Nigeria. Our leaders think only of themselves. Selfish and greedy, and some of our young people think only of what they can scoop out of these greed.

Vision 2020 we planned, this is 2019, nothing to write home about. Even the government themselves are busy politicking and killing themselves with no regard to attain the goals of vision 2020. Open a discussion with a federal minister on how his ministry plans to meet the vision 2020 goals he has no idea what you are talking about.

Our hospitals are still consulting clinics, women still give birth at home without medical support, our roads in disrepair, our schools abandoned and our politicians clueless.
Is there hope for our country that we can ever plan and execute with precision like the Chinese?

Sometime I wonder, do we embrace the Chinese and be recolonized or do we continue to align with the west?

These young Chinese kids in Western schools studying robotics and artificial intelligence are the ones to compete with our own kids 20 years from now at a time our educational system and universities are dead and lecturers still going on strike. I fear for my country and our future, to be candid I fear! -

Not only is Amina Zakari President Buhari’s niece, she also worked with PMB at PTF which he Chaired under Abacha. Their collabo is even tighter than Wizkid and Tiwa Savage or Davido and DJECOOL The rigging album they are planning is already trending in INEC. When you see Amina and Buhari’s plan to rig the 2019 election, you will sing Burna Boy’s Ye by force! #RenosDarts

Wow!

Ok. We await the NPF presentation tomorrow. We also hope to see their pics and hear their confession of the dastardly act. Otherwise........??

Ok

That is how I enjoyed X-mas. Now there is no money, insecurity and unemployment and uncertainty everywhere. I feel for my kids who never saw this and who have to be at home always.

The Universities are grounded with Strikes. Labour is threatening to down tools in the new year. Crime is escalating. Unemployment is rising. The economy is definitely bleeding! With the masses as worst hit. PMB's 2019 budget is a call for discipline ( if we are truly ready for that) while the opposition is telling us they will apply " first aid to the bleeding before treatment"
The way things are going in this Country.......

LOL!

That is embarrassing. The anti graft agency knows where the real culprits are. With all the videos coming up they chose to be selective.
Glad to Bankers Warehouse and Union Bank for the education.
The Chairman has been "Acting" and so an "Actor" he has become.

Actually PMB wasn't too happy Kwankwaso left. After all the plea...now Kano is strategic and Kwankwaso and the Kwankwasiya movement being the political School he created with him as "Principal" should never be undermined.

Well. "The world is watching".....however..."we are supposed to be above this".....sha....Hmmm lozz!
Now seriously this is an indication of the current situation in Nigeria.

WOW! IMO.... with OKOROCHA's political relevance dying so soon?

And so the phenomenon continued in every NYSC Camp. Police, Navy Air force, etc. There is a Mammy Market. Now no one has ever given this great Nigerian Woman any award!!!!

IT'S EITHER BBC IS LYING, UNPROFESSIONAL AND UNFAIR TO THE HAPPENINGS IN THIS COUNTRY OR WE ACCEPT THIS REALITY AND ATTEND TO IT

I am glad you know!

What a Country! My heart also goes to the family of the deceased DRIVER. Just one Nigerian doing a job to earn a living.

Who believes Ambode any longer? Someone who was recently ridiculously humbled by the "Lagos Pharaoh" where else is he going after here?

First lemme just assume it's a "Merger" just like he said and not an acquisition.

Secondly if 2019 Diamond Bank's name has changed to "Access Bank" then for Access Bank it's an Acquisition and not a Merger.

The Controlling rights and new Board appointments next year will reveal to us all what really happened.

Finally I am glad it's not a bankruptcy. Because by a mergers, business will continue.

Somebody tell that tribal bigot that Uche Secondus is not Igbo

R.I.P Sir! I jus dunno what to say

Sir, Nigerians need your NYSC Certificate.

Women should tap into available opportunities in the sector and not wait for major stakeholders to encourage them. The Solid Minerals sector is fraught with illegal mining activities with gemstone mining being exclusive to a few. However me think women can do well in gemstones marketing.

Good one

This is good news for you. Tear and discard the letter. Don't bother replying it perform your last tasks this month, collect your pay and move on. Start planning your next step now. Life must go on!

Thanks. The learning continues! Caution is important.
