This the kinda changed we expected from buhari but the opposite seems the case.

We met 12 years ago in UNIBEN in Nigeria, I was on my way to choir practice, when he walked up to me and said hello to me, I said "hi" I walked as fast as I could away from him as I was already running late for Choir practice, he kept following me and asked if I could give him a minute, I shouted at him and said "say what you want to say am late for choir practice" he was quite polite and told me his name was Richard , what's your name he asked and I answered " you asked me to give you a minute right? Your time is up" and I walked away.

I didn't see him again until about 2 months after, I was going to the library to read and was preparing for my exams, he saw me and followed me to the library, he said I know you are preparing for your exams but please hear me out, he asked me for my mobile number, I lied to him and told him I didn't have a phone, he asked me when I will be through with my exams, I told him 2 weeks time, then he said I'll come look for you in the library a day to your last papers, I said alright, and then he left.


The day before my last papers I didn't go to the library, I decided to study at home in order to avoid him, I went home for holidays after my last paper. About a week later I got a call from him, I was surprised how he got my number and I asked him how he got my number, and he told me he went to my hostel to look for me, he said he described me to any one he could find and finally a classmate of mine gave him my number and he told me her name, I was really surprised she has my number because we weren't that close, I guess she gave him my number just to spite me, but God had other plans for me.

God used her to bring such an amazing and God fearing man into my life, he kept in touch , in fact he called me everyday but never asked me out for a date or anything. Then about 2 weeks later , we were talking on the phone and he asked if he could come visit me at home. I said no, but I asked if he could come to my church on Sunday, he said yes and he did. After Church we went out on a date and that was when we started a Godly relationship for about 2 years before we got married 10 years ago.



And God has blessed us with 3 amazing kids and it's been God all the way.

How can anyone ever survive on such meagre amount? An amount too little to get recharge cards for several people, too little to even get lunch!

Moved by these questions within us, and those coming from our numerous followers online, The Pulse TV went back to the streets, brought him in to our studio to learn more about him

Gideon Ime Charlie, 25, from Ukanafan Local Government of Akwa Ibom has had a life experience that many people his age, even older people, cannot ever deal with.

When asked to narrate the story of his life from the beginning, one of his first statements by him appropriately captured it all


“I actually come from a good home, but there is no money,” he said.

Owing to that very fact, he could not get any education beyond JSS 3, dropping out to allow his other five siblings a shot at education, and hopefully, a better life.

Having dropped out of CJC Comprehensive Secondary School in Otoro, Akwa Ibom State, Gideon got a call from someone in Lagos about the groundnut-selling business, and found his way to Lagos.

About taking up the ‘job’, he said “[The man already told me he’d pay #1500] and I’ll be eating there two times per day… I accepted because I know that if I should stay in the village, [I’ll be] a kind of trouble to my parents.”

When answering the biggest, most pressing question of how he manages to live monthly on such a little amount, Gideon, who comes off as a humble and determined young man says,

“It is not easy, but as a man who is looking for something, I try to save #500.”

However, the money is never enough to spend, let alone save, even with his needs being the most basic – toothbrush, bathing soap, body cream slippers, bottles for his groundnut, etc.

The 25-year old, despite being on the street always, is still paying attention to his dream of being a musician and songwriter, revealing that he has some songs written and recorded on his phone, and actually taking every opportunity to show what he can do. [And he really can do a lot of singing, can’t he?]

Away from sarcasm, it is really impressive to see a young man [or anyone at that], forging on resiliently in the face of what Gideon Gideon had had to face – you really need to watch the video attached to this article to see where he stays, and how he lives to fully understand how amazing it is to see that his faith in a better tomorrow remains unflinching.

Perhaps, this is what moved a number of people and at least an organization, to show an interest in helping out the young man.

When asked how he’d feel if people decided to assist him, “I’ll feel so happy,” he says. “[I’ll feel so grateful]… and I’ll thank my God."

“As a man who comes from a good home, I think I have plans for my life, I need to think of my past… I’ll like going to school… further my education and while I’m in school, I will [do more] on my music… because I know I have to do that."



Just as he showed when he dropped out of school enable his younger ones continue, Gideon has a deep sense of responsibility to his family and has hopes of assisting his them, citing a new home as the biggest need they have.

“I have to build and take my mum from the mud house to the normal house.”

Head of Pulse, Rich Tanksley, who was moved by the predicament of the groundnut hawker, led the way by awarding him a cash gift of #20, 000.

Living in Nigeria these days, as many of us can testify to, has become hell. And that is me being really mild about it. But this is not what Gideon’s story shows.

What stands out from all of this, is that there are some hells hotter than some others. And regardless of where you find yourself, there’s no point sitting on your backside, blaming everyone but yourself for your status, or situation.

Everyone has a shot at success, and sitting down, playing the blame game is not the way to shoot your shot at it.

Our photo celebrity is here again. but it seems she has more cooking up than we all think or expect. Mo' Cheddah seems to be having her butt growing or do I say shooting out. That will be a good one for the lady that the FBI was searching for her bosoms the other time in the past.

I hope it is not even a butt-pad as ladies of nowadays can not even be trusted when it comes to their body parts.

How can I wake up in the middle of the night to write a post, you copy and paste on ur blog, without acknowledging the original writer. That's theft and you are a thief

that was a reckless remark by you. The fact that few christians behave contrary to expectations is not enough for making such an unguarded remark. Caption it few or some rather than most. That is most provocative.
