Seems they like him shaa.good 4 him.

Am also disappointed with most of the things going on in thz country unda thz present government and honestly,its nt actually wat i bargained for

The saraki i know is too smart to get himself into the presidential race.the odds,politically are nt in hz favor

Thz trial is completely uncalled for.the constitution gvs them that right to freely express themselves with decorum.arresting them in the first instance is unlawful unless they didnt follow laid down rules to stage a protest in imo state.thz action wil only further complicate issues here in the southeast with the biafran sympathizers and set a bad precedent where the inalienable rights of citizens to freely express themselves is trampled upon.its nt just a question of them been biafran agitators,its a question of how the rights of citizens are abused irrespective of ethnic and political divide.i jst hope theres more to thz story

Nigeria will soon be rejected by all if care is not taken seriously.

hope u read the write up cos ur comment states otherwise

In as much as buhari isnt getting my vote come 2019,the dominant opposition hasnt clearly done enough to show d force of their existence.my vote is definitely fela durotoye or kingsley moughalu

My dads church.i respect their religious sagacity but its extremes really gets me perplexed

We dnt need this crop and generation of politicians.they ve all let down thz country with the various offices they occupy and occupied.what the nigerian population should be clamouring 4 is a leader with a clear cut direction,purpose driven and in line with current global trends that can help shape our country 4 d better.APC is presenting buhari again and he doesnt ve those qualities and PDP is surely bringing out someone worse.lets nt blindly vote just cos we want buhari out.

Goodluck in your new found hobby of poetry.any political pundit knows shehu sani is nt leaving APC anytime in the nearest future.he has done pretty well by shaking the table and bringing the political actors back to d drawing board.nevertheless,he has been a lone voice speaking up against some of the policies of the present regime..hate him or love him,he is worth been admired.

No need for all these their beer parlour accusations and counter accusations,this coming saturday,the people of ekiti will decide who the popular candidate and party is.

2019 and this purpoted mass defection clearly shows that our so called leaders are nt looking at the bigger picture.the reason they are leaving APC only has to do with their return ticket been in contention.none of them is leaving due to the low performance rate of this administration in most major sectors,they are nt leaving because the APC ideology doesnt tally with the dividends of democracy they promised the electorates.it still boils down to the fact that we,the electorates still take the crumbs or whatever is left on the table of good governance and qualitative representation.voting buhari out wil nt even solve the problem as a new decorated 'god sent' wil spring up among these scavengers who are trying to pitch their tent where it favours them.in otherwords,to hell with the electorates!!.our feelings and yearnings dnt count.what every nigerian should be botherd about is nt the collapse of APC or the 'belgium vs japan' comeback of PDP but actually try to answer thz question,after buhari,whos next??

Mr senator,i beg to differ.having a liberal gun policy is the worst initiative that can be implemented.considering the ethnic and religious colouration attached to these killings,nigeria may toe the path of detroit,usa and it will be a free for all.we dnt ve the right policies and machinaries in place to detect who is sane or insane and qualified to own a gun.we dnt ve medical and past criminal records of our citizens and we cnt even checkmate gun smuggling talk more of been able to knw who has a particular gun and when the gun was giving.we should be working towards state and community policing,beef up intelligence gathering,overhaul our security apparatus and mass sensitization on the importance of nigerias unity.our religious leaders ve alot to do than just ranting.they need to understand the key role they can play in all these and instead of venting anger,thus influencing their followers into hate,a more subtle approach should be adopted.buhari himself must be up and doing,nt just in words bt action

Please my boss wants to start up a wine distribution company.how do I get across companies in lagos that produce wine and spirit to become their distributor or foreign companies as well

thats his biz if he wants buhari back come 2019..we need a new leader who is in touch with reality on ground.. so far,buhari,atiku ain't the people for the job.

there's an iota of truth to what he said but that is no justification for the massacre that occoured in Benue state..dialogue will not solve the problem but instead government should find a lasting solution to this problem and see how these herdsmen can have a ranch,pay tax for its use cos these problems always start the moment they take their cow to someone's farm

Last week,president Buhari inaugurated a committee to review the current minimum wage in Nigeria. The inauguration took place at the castle chambers.

The current minimum wage has expired and the executive intends to send an executive bill to the senate once the committee submits their report. Workers in Nigeria are considered as endangered species in our polity mainly the state and LG workers. While countries like chad,ecuador and estonia pay $1250, $5125, $6534 as wage base,Nigeria pays $59,unarguably the least in the world..

Truth is the minimum wage increment has never helped an average Nigerian worker and this whole set up like the ones done by previous governments as far as am concerned is a political charade that will not bring any lasting solution to the problem of an average Nigerian worker for so many obvious reasons.

There's a structural disalignment in the definition of what minimum wage is. Its about the minimum you can place a worker in the sector he is working. Instead of been a wage base,FG is calculating it on incremental basis. We see it as salary increase and that is our major problem. The main reason why I called this a political charade is what constitutional provision mandates the FG to set up such committee. Its the job of the national wage committee to send a bill to the national assembly.

What the FG should be doing to help Nigerian workers is not just coming up with a new wage base because even the current 18000 is not even paid by most states.In the southeast here,3 states are owing,namely,Abia,5-9 months,ebonyi ,4months,Imo,6months.Delta,akwaibom,adamawa,Kaduna,kwara,to mention just a few are all owing. Its a good thing they are part of the committee so they dont come out to say they weren't part of the negotiation even oshiomole,a former leader was owing before he left.

The issue of minimum wage is on the exclusive list but its the only issue federal government has allowed to be on the concurrent list. No state government has paid minimum wage as at when due and even when they do,how much are they paying kwanu? Let the salary of these workers be charged directly and deducted at source just like the primary school teachers own are been paid by FG. If the money for the salary of these workers in the state and LG is paid directly to them from the FG account,it will be worth more to them than all these political statements government make whenever elections are around the corner.

How can this be achieved? First,remove the"federal civil servant" status. Those who work in state and LG,they all have the same job description. Mind you,we haven't started talking about parastatals or LG.issues of water supply,power been handled by parastatals are quiet crippled cos they are not been taken care of. Its on the exclusive list of FG and no state or LG can argue about it.why then is the FG closing their eyes and reducing the issue to a concurrent list item and thats why when states can't pay,nothing will be done about it.

Labour unions have also failed in the discharge of their duty and its high time they start thinking about the welfare of an average Nigerian worker than hobnobbing with the government

Slave trade in Libya is actually as old as the origin of slavery in North Africa which began between the 18th and 19th century. little wonder Mahmud Ghadaffi in 2010 apologized to the international community for Libya's role in the olden day slave era.

Slavery then was actually conducted by Libyan indigenes such as Tuareq who is said to have facilitated and taxed organizers of the trade back then. Even after 1853,when slave trade was abolished in libya theoretically, in practice,it continued until the 1890's that even the British consulate in Benghazi,Libya had to write to warn the government of the increasing boom of slave trade in the north African country as it was eating deep into their national fabrics and was thus becoming a way of life for them..

Adolf Vischer(1911), Ahmed Hassanein (1923) Dansh knud Holmboe(1930) all discoverd in their respective reports back then that one could buy a girl from local slave masters for the rate of 30 to 40 Pounds despite global civilization as at that period. Believe it or not,during the ghadaffi era,slavery was still been practiced but not at a conventional rate but in secrecy. So,am I surprised with what's been happening? Absolutely not.

It was after the overthrow of muamar Gaddafi in 2011 that the slave business became more of an open secret with migrants whose papers weren't complete been the most vulnerable and for the fact that Libya is a major exit point for African migrants heading to Europe makes the whole business more lucrative.

These migrants are detained and sold as slaves after been detained by people smugglers.women are used for sex slaves and sold to brothels and private Libyan clients while the men are usually used for forced lab our and even ransomed to their families back home.
It was after CNN uncovers this story early this month that the story became a subject of international discuss. Nigeria,Senegal,somalia and Gambia are the worst hit countries.

The Libyan coast guard been trying their best to clamp down on these people and that has necessitated a means used by these people to hide their slaves by getting them in cramped warehouses to avoid Libyan coast guards.Thats where they stay till they are ransomed and sold for labour.

Now the world is aware,what next?..Countries like burkina and DR Congo recalled their ambassadors from libya as if that would solve the problem.with regards to Nigeria,over 4000 citizens of ours have been brought back.Despite the high rate, its not just a Nigerian thing.It affects the rest of Africa as most African countries are suffering from a high rate of inflation, economic down turn,mismanagement of the countries wealth,bad leadership and abject poverty.In Nigeria alone,161 Nigerians were brought back in February, 600 in 2016,262 and 128 in July and august respectively.

This shows you how bad the situation is. In as much as the world is condemning this,we must call upon our leaders to address the pertinent reason for this emigration by mapping out a collective blueprint to make Africa an economic viable continent as we are blessed with natural resources.

The government of every country in Africa must go back to the drawing board,drop all these unnecessary summits and make their actions louder than their voice..
Together,we can all solve Africa's problem.

Enugu state is my home state and thats where i reside..in enugu,theres a part of the town where i grew up in.its called abakpa..

.abakpa has always been a crowdy and busy city, always filled up with Cars, tricycles and people hurrying to differents Destination. This sometimes causes serious and annoying hold-ups that lasts for hours. Well that problem seized after a hardworking traffic officer was sent.
Am sure by now most of you guys living in Abakpa already know or recognise the young man in the picture. Well sit back let me tell you a little story about him.
His name is Eze Peter. Don't ask me from where because i don't know, but that's by the way. . We see him standing on the islands/road (under scorching heat of the burning sun) from morning - afternoon or afternoon - dead night. He is always on neat uniform all suited up. Civilians and most especially Drivers respects him and obey traffic whenever he is around. He respects civilians, always tries; *to minimize accidents and jams so that people can move easily and freely. *to control the movement of people and vehicles on the road. * to help pedestrians, women and children and old people cross the road.
He is very sincere, dutiful and punctual. He renders great service to the town.
Make a difference where ever you find yourself and people will appreciate and write good about you.
* * * *
May God bless him forever

I have seen girls where I come from and even girls on social media will mention standards they want in a guy
Then upload pictures and they will be looking like humble beginnings
Without filters they look like proud victims of domestic violence.
We all try to raise standards when we talk about relationships. I have seen ugly gals talk about how they need handsome dudes and can't date an ugly guy and am like wtf?

When you get into a relationship, ask yourself what do you have to offer? What values are you bringing in?
You need a rich guy, babe are you rich too?
Do you have such standards?
Dont be mentioning standards when you are not even up to standard to compliment the kind of man you want..
Most people talk about love and how much they need love..truth is,most people are in it for bleeps.

If you want love,then dont expect anything for doing anything for him or her. Once you start expecting,then it becomes a business of demand and supply.Love is selfless.
