If Tinubu had done half of what Jakande did in fours years or at least continued from where he stopped Lagos would have been far better than what it is today. You Tinubu urchines seems to forget that lagos was once FCT, your principal instead is looting from the treasury and has Lagos in his pocket which is what he plans to do with Nigeria.w 1 Like |

The rail project was Jakande's idea, he like other civilian governors across the federation during his reign laid a solid foundation that the succeeding govs have failed to build on. Even lagos has not implemented half of Jakande's blueprint, what ever they been able to achieve is cus of the huge revenue base. |

Literature / A Call To Action by TerickW(m): 4:57pm On Aug 24, 2021 |
While basking in the euphoria of the gift of life and it's attendant beauty, we seldom remember to sit back and ponder on the realities surrounding the kind of life we live here in this divide of the world. A typical Nigerian deserves accolades for making it through life or at least for staying alive amidst the challenges and pandemonium in the land. A life where one is denied of virtually everything that gives you a sense of humanity, a typical case scenario of 'The Adventures of Alice in wonderland' where verdict comes before judgement, a life without the basic amenities of life and without a sense of belonging to the larger society. This is one hell of a life, often times I ask myself, how did we survive for this long? How come we are not broken? I guess the real question is: how did we get here?, where did we go wrong? Is there hope? Alot has gone wrong, as much as there has always been class divide from time immemorial, ours is overwhelmingly in bad shape, there is a divide in everything and anything that ought to unite us as a people; Tribe, Religion, and Nativity are the evils that has befallen us, they are more dividing here more the even the defunct 'Wall of Berlin'. Worse still is the total absence of justice, inclusiveness, merit, equity, fairness, rule of law, liberty, welfare and national interest. These are supposed to be the bedrock of a liberal and nascent democracy. Here, unlike elsewhere, the common man is robbed of all these and even more. But for how long shall we continue to tow this path? How long before we break? For how much longer can we hold still? Where are we heading to? It's time to give this burning issues a thought and decide for ourselves whether to continue on this path or take our collective future into our own hands. The time is now and we must have to decide, decide to speak out or take action with a united sense of purpose. |
Literature / Romance by TerickW(m): 4:49pm On Aug 24, 2021 |
Lost, lust, Love Love dealt me a big blow the first time She was a motivational speaker She deceived me with her sweet words and I fell for her, Only to realize she only came use me. The second time, she came in form of an artist, Painted pictures with words that depicted her as the perfect one, I fell again, thinking she was the right one for me, Only to realize she only came to use me. The third time twas an orator, Her choice of words and eloquence captivated me, And fell so cheap for her deceit, Only to realize she only came to use me, this time a little too late. She took advantage of my innocence I was young, dumb, stupid and hungry for love, And she deceived me three good times But I've learnt my lesson, though the hard way, Now, I've fallen in love with me, I've learnt to put myself first before others Realizing I'm whole and beautiful in my skin Also, that when the is ripe, the right person will come and at the right time too. And when the time and season comes, I'll be ready with a once broken but now mended heart and able to spot the cunning ones. |
Politics / As The Tides Are Changing by TerickW(m): 9:05am On Aug 22, 2021 |
The prehistoric epoch was characterised by barbaric, savagery, brute, nasty and other unspeakable inhumane tendencies owing to the fact that survival instincts prevailed in the absence of law and justice so man did as it pleased him. This way of life would soon make way for conquer and conquest creating an environment for slavery which later culminated into feudalism, and subsequently a return to communism which was different from the initial communal life that paved way slavery and this it was more brutal and characterised by force labour and a shift from civilization threatening civil rights, encouraging forced labour, attack on religion but it never stood the test of time. This led to series of violence and conflict until the idea of the modern State was conceptualized, prompting man to surrender his natural rights to the government in exchange for welfare, security, empowerment that guarantees a reasonable means of livelihood including basic amenities and infrastructural facilities and in return man is expected to pay taxes, obey civil laws and maintain social order. In this part of the divide, the establishment has failed to live up to their own end of the bargain and yet they expect the citizens to live up to expectation. This nonchalant attitude has further impoverished the standard of living for the common man who struggles to maintain a three square meal how much more a balanced died making them malnourished, with little or no access to health care. The farmers, small and medium scale enterprises in the remote areas are the worst hit as there's no access roads, markets, bridges, electricity, processing plants, and storage facilities available to them making way for untold hardship, losses, lack of value chain, return on investment. This of course leads to rural urban migration by the youths leaving this communities vulnerable. |
Literature / Behind The Mask by TerickW(m): 8:26am On Aug 22, 2021 |
Behind that beautiful smile Lies pain, agony, depression and frustration The smile is but a camouflage To cover the inner scars and struggles Behind that confidence Lies self-doubt, low self-esteem, self-pity and self-condemnation The confidence is but a camouflage Just a cover of the true inner self Behind that success Lies years of struggle, sacrifice, sleepless nights and hard work The success is but a camouflage Not necessarily a cover but reward for the efforts and time invested. Behind that beauty Lies imperfections, vile, shortcomings and ineptitude The beauty is but a camouflage To cover the inner beasts and demons Behind that saint Lies sin, villain, savage and a hound The hallo is but a camouflage To cover the struggles with human nature filled with sinful tendencies. Behind that beast Lies charisma, charm, appeal and enchantment. The cruelty is but a camouflage To cover the the true inner self. Behind every man Lies struggles, pain, sorrow and agony With a mixture of joy, peace, happiness and fulfillment. People only portray that side which they find pleasant and appealing to the eye. And you dare ask why? But why not? When all we do is judge people and crusify them even without giving them a chance to fair hearing? We label, stereotype and tag people with certain profiles. And yet we lack the ability to look through them and see their struggles and scars And see beyond their imperfections, mistakes and shortcomings Are you any different? 1 Like |
