AN OPEN LETTER TO MRS AISHA BUHARI ON THE BBC INTERVIEW

AN OPEN LETTER TO MRS. AISHA BUHARI
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE DONE?

Ma, with due respect, what was the meaning of that interview with the BBC Hausa? I listened with shock the interview you granted with BBC Hausa on issues bordering on the Nigerian political Landscape and the Change Government of your husband, President Muhammadu Buhari. I was shocked not because of your incoherent speech or your poor command of English language like the former First Lady Patience Jonathan but because of your utterances in that interview.

Ma, What do you think you have done? You went on air to say things that you shouldn't have said? To achieve what? Are you planning on contesting any political position in 2019? Many first ladies all over the world offer support and help to their husband even in the most difficult times and not to come the public to demoralize him. To what end? During the illness of the late President Yar'Adua, the wife Turai Yar'Adua never came out to publicly tell the world that her husband is sick and that if he continues to be sick,  she would abandon everything and allow other people grab power. It was reported in different quarters that Turai called the shots while the husband was sick and away.  During the trial of the then President of the United States of America, Bill Clinton, The wife,  who is now a Presidential candidate was very tactful in speaking to the press. She never ridiculed her husband even when it  was proven that he actually had an affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Oh! Ma,  What do you think you have done? During the recent trial of Senate President Bukola Saraki, did you hear anywhere where Toyin Saraki the wife came out publicly to say that if the husband doesn't come out clean about his dealings on false Declaration of Assets she will stop supporting him? Recently, Yakubu Dogara, the current Speaker of the house of Representatives, was accused of budget padding alongside other members of the house. Did you by chance even in gossip hear that the wife was quoted as saying she would stop supporting the husband if does not come out clean on the issue? Ma, I can go on and on to give you vital examples of women who were before you in same position and kept their cool, worked with carefulnes knowing the kind of society we are in.


What do you think you have done? What came over you? How did you lose it? You could have declined invitation to that interview or was it by force? Today some opposition elements are cashing on that interview and the President's comic response to jump around like they 've won an election. Ma, are you happy about this? Have you seen the ridicule online brought about by this? Imagine Oluremi Tinubu making this kind of Uterrances or Dolapo Osibanjo. Ma, I must remind you that if not for Buhari, we wouldn't have known you. Before you became a first lady, which is just a nomenclature, you were first a wife, a mother and your husband's better half. Have you forgotten all these in just over one year of being in Aso Rock villa? Have you forgotten that after the tenure of your husband, you will return back to Daura with him? And that no one will care where you are? Even this type of interviews you won't get them anymore or when last did you read or hear from Turai Yar'Adua? Whatever borders your heart about the situations of the country, you could have talked to your husband about it at home and remember the Islamic laws guiding marriages no matter your position. Or have you suddenly become secular just cos of power? In that ill conceived interview, you said you don't know 45 out of the 50 appointment made by your husband. Like seriously are you supposed to know? Are you a politician? You want to influence the appointments? Or you are not happy the President on assumption of office scrapped the office of the first lady unlike previous administration?

Hope you know the implications of what you have done? Those hailing you today will abandon you when the time comes. Just wear the next expensive jewelry or carry an expensive bag and see those hailing you still question your source of income and accuse you and your family of being corrupt. And in many of these accusations of your expensive lifestyle, did you hear the President utter a word? Forget the nonsense going on now, where everyone is now kissing their wife and claiming what is not, (So they needed a misunderstanding in Someone's family issue to show off their wife?) many men  wouldn't be happy if their wife goes to the media to say what they shouldn't have. Ma, you no try for that interview. And please retrace your step.

DSS RAID ON CORRUPT JUDGES AND WHAT IS DEMOCRACY


DSS RAID ON CORRUPT JUDGES AND WHAT IS DEMOCRACY

--Corrupt  judges are the worst set of people  is killing our democracy-- Princewill Chimereze.

On Saturday 8th October, 2016 the DSS raided the home of some high profile judges in Nigeria. The Said raid has generated irrational outcry by some group and some section of the country. Nigeria’s opposition party the PDP has termed it a "descent into fascism". Some has said our democracy is in danger, others termed it rape of our democracy. When you listen to some of these cries even from those who know nothing about democracy but just decide to foam through the nose because others are doing same, you would be forced to really ask what is democracy and who is killing it? According to wikitionary.org Democracy is the Belief in political freedom and equality; the "spirit of democracy". That's for dictionary meaning. To those who has opposed the raid by Nigeria's State security outfit, to them democracy is upholding the tenets of law and doing things the right way.

It's very funny to see a people choose what is democratic or what is not detrimental to our young democracy. Who really is putting our democracy in danger? A judge who subverts the will of the people and does the bidding of the highest paying politician? A judge who sends a petty thief to long term imprisonment but commits bigger crime and gets away with it? A judge who collects bribe to continuously give conflicting judgement on issues?
To the our democracy is in danger shouting irrational beings,  A politician who rigged election, perpetrated all kinds of violence against his opponent and the people in order to win election is not putting our democracy in danger. He is upholding it. Its even more amusing that a governor was stopping the arrest of a judge. In a democracy? What concerns a governor with the arrest of a judge? How did he get to know? It might interest anyone to know that this same raid was carried out in over five State of the Federation and you begin to wonder where was the governor of those other state? And why did they not also try to stop DSS? A rational answer would help all of us.

As if such nonsense is not insulting to our collective common sense and endangering our young democracy, An electoral case would be brought before a court, the said electoral matter would be glaring even to the blind that it was badly flawed  and Judges would uphold such elections. And those shouting democracy now kept quiet. A politician would loot the treasury of the nation without conscience and care for democracy. When such politician is brought to court,  he bribes his way out of the issue and walks free. He has been given a pat on the back for looting and even encouraging potential looters that we 've got your back go ahead and steal as you like. What kills democracy faster than judgements encouraging looting.

The same noise makers about the recent DSS raid on corrupt judges are the ones who will be the first to scream economy is in recession, things are hard, prices of foodstuffs has skyrocketed. But fail to understand that When these corrupt judges collect bribes, they also contribute to the downfall of the economy and what  should have benefited the common man would be shared among selected few. Is that democracy? A politician steals over a $100 million and bribes a Judge with $2 million from the said loot gets a clean judgement of doing no wrong and he walks freely is that upholding democratic tenets? Or is democracy under siege when some people choose to see it so?

During Election, State security apparatus were unleashed on opposition, some military men were arm banded to carry out shady deals in order to win election for friends and party members in the last dispensation. Where were the today crying "our democracy is in danger illiterates? Money was earmarked for procurement of arms to fight insurgency in the Northeast and same was shared by those whom the present day shouters of our democracy is in danger supported. Then democracy had seen the light  but when those people are called upon to come and answer to their atrocities democracy is being killed. How?

To this same "democracy illiterates" When A sitting governor was denied entrance to the government house of his state, it was democracy in action. When DSS raided the office of an opposition party and carted away with their belongings it was democracy in action. When the security details of a Speaker of House of Representatives was withdrawn democracy was breathing fine. The most surprising thing about all these corruption defending is that it's championed by downtrodden youths who might not get their desire to lead the nation due to the manner and way the politicians go about politics in Nigeria. How would you win election with the level of violence, ballot box snatching and rigging that has been mastered by this politicians and when such cases get to court, they are even upheld.

"Nigerian Youths what is your gain in defending corruption or supporting those accused of corruption?

This is a call to the DSS to carry out more of this type of raid on anyone no matter how highly or lowly placed the person is. Be more probing, go further, crush things and make sure Nigeria is purged of corruption. Patriotic Nigerians are behind you. I must State categorically that corrupt judges are the worst set of people  is killing our democracy.

I would like to end this piece with a quote from a well respected legal luminary Mohammed Uwais. “A corrupt judge is more harmful to the society than a man who runs amok with a dagger in a
crowded street. The latter can be restrained physically. But a corrupt judge deliberately destroys the moral foundation of society and causes incalculable distress to individuals through abusing his office while still being
referred to as honourable"

To those who still have the ability to recollect their senses and move on from elections loss which was inevitable,  and has be clouded their sense of judgment, I hope a corrupt judge would not handle your case and deny you justice.

THINGS BEN BRUCE HAS NOT TALKED ABOUT

THINGS BEN BRUCE HAS NOT TALKED ABOUT 

After 2015 elections, we saw  Ben Bruce become active on social media and dishing out what he termed common sense. One begins to wonder whether he never owned or used smart phone prior to 2015 elections. Before now no one saw him on Twitter criticizing the past Government or giving them common sense advice. What Ben Bruce is doing in my own opinion especially in criticizing this present government is just sheer Hypocrisy. 

To prove that in a bit, here are National issues that Ben Bruce has not spoken about.

1. MASSIVE LOOTING AND CORRUPTION IN JONATHAN's GOVERNMENT: Since the fight against corruption started under this present administration and the discovery of massive looting and sheer mismanagement of our common wealth under the last Government, Ben Murray Bruce has not spoken either in condemnation or defence of it. One would have expected him to throw out lots of common sense articles, speeches and or even make a video telling us how corruption has destroyed the country but no its not a strong issue. Maybe his common sense articles and and speeches have restrictions. Mr. Ben Bruce what's your take on this issue?

2. NIGER DELTA AVENGERS: To the dismay of many Nigerians, a group came out of the blues calling themselves Niger Delta Avengers (Avenging what?) bombing our pipelines. If we have given Amnesty to militants, isn't it a crime to go back on that same thing that was forgiven of them?. Since their bombing started, Ben Bruce has not said anything about them. He has surprisingly kept mute. Maybe his battery is always low or dead when they attack.

3. SARAKI's TRIAL: Since Senate President, Bukola Saraki's corruption trial started, Ben Bruce has not said anything about it either in condemnation or support. You would have expected him in some of his numerous common sense tweets to condemn Bukola Saraki's continued stay as the Senate President while his case is still in court. He should have said something about Bukola Saraki's Asset declaration and subsequent trial. But Ben Bruce has not. Abi him dey fear Saraki ni?

4. SENATE RULES FORGERY: The media has been awashed with news of the senate standing rule forged by Senate President Bukola Saraki and Deputy, Ike Ekweremadu. You would have expected Common sense Senator to come up with series of tweets, speeches or articles affirming that the rules were forged or were not. After all he is a member of the Senate and should know what goes on there. But till date Ben Bruce has kept mute about this saga. Maybe him no want make dem beatam for Senate Chamber if he talk. 

5. PDP CRISIS: Senator Ben Bruce is a member of the PDP and his party is in a shameful mess and dirty water crisis. Two chairman, Two governorship candidate in Edo, Two governors in Abia State. In all this national embarrassment, Ben Bruce has said nothing. He has maintained hypocritical silence and act like he doesn't read the Newspapers. Had it been its about the present government he would 've found where he kept his phone, come to the internet to criticize their actions. Ben Bruce, are you for Makarfi or Sheriff! 

6.  NON PAYMENT OF WORKERS SALARIES IN EKITI AND BAYELSA: when it was reported that Osun state governor, Rauf Aregbeshola was owing workers in his State, Ben Bruce was one of those who condemned the governor and even insulted the people of the State by saying he would channel part of the controversial wardrobe allowance that ran into millions into paying workers salary in Osun State. He made so many mountain out of the Salary issue then in Osun state. Today as we speak, his State, Bayelsa state, is struggling to pay workers and so also is Ekiti. You would expect Ben Bruce to comment on this issue with the same approach he did with that of Osun or even offer to pay the workers with his earnings in the Senate but No. His smart phone has suddenly got missing or maybe him no want make Fayose remember him matter.

What ever we want to venture into in life, we must weigh the ups and down and be ready to come to equity with clean hands. Common sense will become common nonsense if its only targeted at a particular people or party.

WHY CELEBRITY MARRIAGES FAIL

WHY CELEBRITY MARRIAGES FAIL 

--No matter who we are in life we must respect the tennets of Marriage-- Princewill Chimereze

celebrity marriages comes with lots of uneccessary nd irrelevat burden that makes it hit the rock most at the slightes misunderstanding. There are reasons that makes celebrity marriages fail but below are some of the reasons.

1. UNCHANGED CHARACTER: This reason is not only peculiar to  celebrities but to everyone. Many ladies never work on their characters before venturing into marriage. Imagine a lady with lots of anger issues getting into marriage, she would less likely tolerate what she gets to see in the marriage. Some ladies are gossip freak to the extent that when they get married they wont even know when they will spread the dirty side of their marriage outside which if it gets to the notice of their husband will be suicidal. Some guys are chronic womanizers that even marriage can never change them. They chase after any babe that has got what they like forgeting they are married.

2. LIMELIGHT: fame, comes with lots of changes. What an ordinary person can endure and move on with in marriage, a celebrity might not  be able to do so cos of fame and limelight. A celebrity does not know what it is like to manage in marriage when the chips are down. The woman have to continue the lifestyle she has built for herself over the years. She wouldn't want to be seen as living a life that is not of her standard.  This can make her engage in extra marital affairs just to keep up the limelight.

3. MARRIAGE FOR CONVENIENCE: Many celebrities are in marraige for convinience or for the sake of it. And you expect such marraige to last? Some celebrities feel many of their celebrity friends are getting married therefore, they need to do so. Some are in it for what they would gain from their partner and when such goodies are no longer coming, they end up crashing the marriage. They know they don't love their potential husband but because of convenience and to sustain the kind of life they 've fashioned for themselves, they would just marry the person. A clear case is Funke Akindele, who married a man known to be a serial womanizer and has been married twice. The marriage ended via Facebook.  

4. MARRIAGE FOR WEALTH: This reason is similar to that of convenience. Most celebrities are poor if you take away their other crooked ways of income. That is why they look out for anyone who is rich to get married to so they can continue to get the latest shoe, clothes and other material things that they can't do without. Ini Edo go tell me say she no see fine, responsible and hardworking boys way full everywhere fall in love with and get married?  She did but wanted a rich man. Today they are divorced not only divorced but the man is asking for his Bride price back.        

5. LIES: Celebrities know how to lie. Some of them call it strategies to remain relevant because of the competition in showbiz but its unnecessary. Some will say they 've bought a house when actually they rented it. Some can be driving their sugar daddy and sugar mummy's car and claim its theirs. You would only know when they have problems with these people. When their partner gets to know about all these lies, the next thing is divorce because the marriage itself was built on lies.

6. FAKE LIFE: No one on earth lives a fake life more than celebrities. It would surprise you to know that what you see on the surface is just a cover for the dirt, pain, sorrow, woes, and regrets inside. Do you know that some celebrities borrow clothes to wear? They squat with friends and act like its their house? Do not be deceived by Instagram pictures all na wash. Some musicians have no hit single but act like they 've gotten everything in life. Some give you updates like; last night was awesome, he is the best man in the world, doesn't smoke, womanize or take alcohol when the man is actually a drunkard and drug addict. When they can't take it anymore, you know the rest.

7.  LACK OF RESPECT FOR MARRIAGE INSTITUTION: In my article about Tiwa Savage's Marriage, (found here: enlightennigeria.blogspot.com/2016/05/tiwa-savage-married-and-was-still.html?m=1). I pointed out some bad characters that made that marriage crash of which many of them boils down to lack of respect for the institution. How can a woman be married and still wants to act like she is still single. Cleavage barring, attending parties and getting drunk and tipsy, being on location for almost a week, getting so cosy on movie or music set, wearing skimpy dress and what have you and expect the marriage to be successful. Marriage comes with sacrifices and doing away with some of the things we were doing while we were yet to get married.

Marriage is not by force if one knows they can't cope with the stress and hassle that comes with it better remain single than get into it and divorce almost immediately. Marriage no be by Dubai wedding or 50 million Naira but by enduring and persevering to the End.

TEN TYPES OF WAILERS IN NIGERIA

10 TYPES OF WAILERS 

If wailing is our last resort after an --election loss, we must do so with sense-- PRINCEWILL CHIMEREZE 

      As we celebrate this Government's one year in office,  It's also an Anniversary for the wailing wailers. For those who don't know,  The wailing wailers are sore election losers who has continued to wallow in the pain of election loss thereby clouding their judgement of the present administration and making them attack the government unnecessarily. They were christened "Wailing Wailers"  by Presidential aide; Femi Adeshina. 
Before I list the types of wailers in Nigeria,  I must point out that criticism is different from crying due to election loss or attacking a government without any cogent  reason but just to oppose. Below are the types of Wailing Wailers in Nigeria. 

1.  THE ELECTION LOSERS: This ones can't forget the 2015 Presidential election which their hero lost. They believed their hero was unjustifiably removed and they must fight for him. They roam about the Online space shouting 'Jonathan is a hero' as if we dey drag "Mr. hero" with them. They defend him at every given opportunity and rain abuses on anyone who talks about the mindless looting that went down during his reign.  This ones wants to make sure they show Nigerians how their decision to vote in Buhari was a Mistake. So they see nothing good about this present administration. They ask this administration to stop blaming the former government . If this administration don't blame them who will?

2.  THOSE WHO HATE NORTH: this type of wailers do not see anything good in the government just because the President is from the northern part of the country. They  litter our cyber space with such illiterate lines like 'Fear North' 'The problem of this country is North' etc. They jump on any ethnic issues to show how low they are. The solutions for this kind of people, i don't know. They cry victims at any given opportunity and accuse North of being the architect of their problem As if Namadi Sambo who ran with GEJ was not a northerner. Their only solution to the problem of the country is to divide it and let North be on their own. The eronously believe the North won't survive without the South. But they never cried for this When GEJ was in power. Wail on wailers.  Waiiiilllllllllll!!! . 

3. RELIGIOUS BIGOTS: This ones are the most pathetic, senseless, and bunch of illiterates. This ones started during the build up to the presidential election. They continued till this day. To them this administration wants to Islamize Nigeria. They litter the online space with nonsense like, "The president wants to Islamize Nigeria" They hate the President cos he is a Muslim but will support Dasuki and Saraki. And you begin to wonder what remedy will be best to cure them. But unfortunately none. Their leaders are Femi Faani Kayode, Fayose etc. May God help them.

4. IPOB MEMBERS: This group have no direction. They remembered they need a country because the last administration was booted out. They sow seeds of discord and hatred in anyone they come across. They have created different online platform to deceive themselves about an imaginary country. This online platform only spread lies and hate messages about APC and Buhari. And you begin to wonder is it by spreading lies about Buhari and APC that you will actualize your struggle? This ones insult you when you don't agree with them or when people like me oppose them from involving the South south from their misery. Well, this group should continue at least an Imaginary Russian President holding their flag has backed them.

5. THE ETHNIC BIGOTS: This ones are similar to the Religious bigots. Their problem is that their region is not the ones at the Zenith of Nigerian leadership. They blame other regions for their woes as if those regions also elected their leaders for them. They only look out for religious coloration in any issue. Any appointment,  they will scrutinize it as if it's their exam note or Textbook to find out how many Northerners and southerners are in it. They DOUBTED chibok girls kidnap but believed Fulani herdsmen massacre in Agatu. To them anyone from their region in this Present Government is a sell out, traitor and an ''efulefu'' as my people will say. How low can a people get? Their leader is FFK, a man who insulted them before. Well this group, their case is With Tb Joshua.

6. THE ONES THAT NO LONGER SEE GOVERNMENT MONEY: This ones, when i see them i rub salt on their injury. Their anger is that stolen money from the destructive party the PDP is no longer coming.  The border was opened for them to import every irrelevant thing to the country and now its been closed. To them economy is moving as long as they make money even in  "Unfriendly economic" way. They litter different blogosphere with such illiterate lines as 'Bring back our corruption'  'There was corruption and bag of Pure water was bla bla bla and one begins to wonder where this people crept out from. They are the anti corruption fight foot soldiers.  They have benefited so much from share the money attitude and now its like their life is going to be paused by the "New Sheriff in town" .This ones their wailing will be too long to measure because tougher economic decisions will be made for a better Nigeria.

7. THE ONES THAT JUST HATE APC: This ones link everything that happens to them to the APC. They scream "Government of lies". "What do you expect"? This Government gave the former a robust and sound Opposition that every Nigerian saw the Need for them to go. To this ones, if APC was not formed they would have  still remain in power. They litter our online space with such lines as "A Party built on lies"  "A party of deceit". And when you ask them how truthful their PDP was, they become Dumb. They believed APC used propaganda to get the presidency and they must revenge it. By calling APC names? They should continue.  

8. THOSE WHO JUST WAIL: This ones are just like those Girls who had no option but to watch football match with their boyfriend and just have to support his club whether they know what the game is all about or not. They just join to wail maybe for 'likes' from fellow online users or just not to be seen as deviating from supporting their family members, ethnic group or friends. This ones retweet others, like their posts  and also fearfully insult the government without any reason or direction. Well, this ones will realise themselves one day. I use to behave this way before i decided be well grounded in economic, political and other National issues.
9. THE ONES THAT HATE BUHARI: This ones will remind you how he never allowed them to come out of their mother's womb during Buhari's first stint at the nation's top job in 1983. How he jailed their family for running drugs, how he hate other tribes and all other unsubstantiated issues. They can't believe he won the election after their campaign of hate and calumny. They are the ones who keep asking for certificate of the President till date.  Him go bring the certificate una hear? Wetin una wan usam do?  Make una no take una life do better thing. Awon omo rada rada. 

10. THE ONES THAT WILL INSULT THIS WRITER: This ones are just helpless. They think insulting those who oppose their unexamined stance on this government will increase their bank Account or Popularity. They wonder why people like Soyinka, Falana, Bakare, ezekwesili, other known vocal activist are not speaking out against this present government. And you begin to wonder what should they speak against in one year? And considering our present economic problems. They should join them in calling the President Dullard? Well, this writer welcomes insults at least it makes me know how ill trained some people in this age are and am ever ready to put them where they belong. 

Which of the wailers are you or which one do you know? Use the comments box to tell me about it or disagree with what I 've written above.  You can share and invite your friends to come and tell me what I don't know.

WHEN A PROTEST IS BOUND TO FAIL

When a group of people have no clear reason for embarking on a strike or have political undertone to it, its bound to fail.

Below is a photo of recently held NLC strike against subsidy removal. And you begin to wonder, what they are protesting against.

****The first inscription in the screenshot above shows how confused they are *** Is that not what this administration is doing or trying to do?

***Now the second Inscription is laughable. Are they protesting against APC or Subsidy Removal? Looks like what was sponsored by PDP.

***Now below are images from the 2012 subsidy removal protest Now you can spot the difference yourself.



The current NLC leadership are bunch of directionless, irresponsible, and unintelligent fellows

WHY NIGERIANS WONT OCCUPY NIGERIA AS FUEL SUBSIDY IS REMOVED

WHY NIGERIANS WONT OCCUPY NIGERIA AS FUEL SUBSIDY IS REMOVED

Yesterday, the Internet was awashed with news of the Federal Government's removal of subsidy on premium motor spirit also known as fuel. This news came as a shocker to Nigerians and as a reason for some group of people (THE WAILING WAILERS) who does not want to move on with their life after the 2015 Presidential elections to justify their support for then President Goodluck Jonathan. Later that same day, the Government through its Minister for State for Petroleum released a statement that seems to not affirm or deny the news of subsidy removal.

Unlike the previous Government where Nigerians came out in mass to protest against subsidy removal, many Nigerians will not protest this one or only a few disgruntled elements who sees everything as politics or attach ethnic coloration to everything will do so. Below are some of the reasons why There would be no protest.

1. DUE CONSULTATIONS: Going by the statement released by the Minister for State for Petroleum Dr. Ibe Kachickukwu, the TUC, NLC and other stakeholders in Nigeria were duly consulted before taking this decision. Forget the threat by NLC they just want to make it look like they 've not failed Nigerians. The question is were they not represented in the meeting? What is their take on Saraki still occupying The Senate Presidency? What is their take on most of our universities on strike etc. Why is it that NLC only knows how to cry when it involves oil?

2. SINCERITY: Even the President's worst enemy knows he means well for Nigeria. They know whatever decision he takes is for the overall good of every Nigerian. Many will ask if the previous Government never meant well for the country? The answer lies on the characters and personalities of the two leaders and their stance on corruption and mismanagement. Many believed the former's Petroleum minister was corruption personified who said she was untouchable while the later is a man of proven integrity who will make judicious use of the proceeds from subsidy removal.

3. TACTFULNESS: Even till this moment, no one can say for sure that Petroleum subsidy has been removed. The government in their wisdom wants to go about it in the best possible ways as not to generate public outcry on the issue. The statement by the Minister proved that. The government knows the implications of removing fuel subsidy and has deviced the best possible ways out of it. Unlike the previous Government who woke up on January 1st when most Nigerians were still returning from Christmas and New year Celebrations and announced fuel subsidy removal.

4. FAITH IN THIS GOVERNMENT: Believe it or not there is an overwhelming belief in this Government. I dare anyone to conduct a sincere public opinion poll on their perception of this Government and you will be shocked on the percentage that will affirm their support for this Government. Forget some of the comments by some nitwits online who does not have grasp of economic issues and present economic woes but do so out of religious or ethnic sentiments that has kept them where they are. Most Prominent Nigerians are sympathetic to this Government this may be connected to their belief that this Government is still in its nascent stage and it's meaningless criticizing it this early.

5. UNCONSTRUCTIVE OPPOSITION: The present opposition in Nigeria are headless, directionless and has no moral right to criticize or call for civil disobedience because it's not in their modus operandi and has failed woefully when they were there. The present opposition led by uncouth, crass and crude Ayodele Fayose only flex their muscles when its religious and ethnic issues. Recently, the one who might have seen the issue as only affecting the South East or Christians just to create chaos in the land is answering to his involvement in money meant for arms purchase that was traced to his account. The other one who claims to be their media aide is busy looking for who to fight in the nearest night club tonight or spreading false news.

DIFFERENTIAL OIL PRICES: In 2012, When the previous administration removed fuel subsidy oil price was on the high side. Global oil market sold for over $90 per barrel as at January of that same year while today oil price is very much below $50. The powers that be made minimal or no significant impact on the lives of Nigerians in the mist of plenty why won't they be able to pay for Petroleum subsidy hence the occupy Nigeria during that time. Today, Sane Nigerians would wonder why they should involve themselves in meaningless protest when the current global oil price is nothing to write home about.

TIWA SAVAGE: MARRIED AND WAS STILL GIVING LAP DANCE

The beauty of marriage is the respect of the institution and the decision to drop whatever we were doing when we were single that can be detrimental to the marriage. Tiwa Savage threw caution to the winds even after she got married. On may 2014, in a performance for Star Trek, Tiwa Savage wore a raunchy outfit and even gave a lap dance to a fan on stage. In 2014, Tiwa Savage released a controversial music video of her song "Wanted" that video was filled with nudity and provocative dressing. As if that was not enough, in November 2014, at the Channel O music award, a live performance of their song "Girlie O", Tiwa Savage got cozy and cozier with Patoranking and gave him a lap dance.

While doing all these, Tiwa Savage forgot she was married. There are limits to what a woman can do when she is married no matter who she is (Whether celebrity or not). But many will say she is a star she needs to still give her fans something to wow on. The feminists will argue that the husband is also doing worst. "OK o" shebi una don seeam now. As a passionate fan of Mercy Johnson, when she wanted to get married I felt a bit bad not because I was not happy she was getting married but because I knew I would no longer be seeing those mind blowing scenes in her movies like I ve' been used to. Movies like "Shakira" and others. Not only that, the way she dresses in movies and function that appeals to bad thoughts filled niggers like me would also no longer be there. If she had continued the way she dresses or act when she was single, then I would have known she is flippant with the marriage.

Today, the social media is with stories of how TeeBillz her husband and manager wants to commit suicide. That Don Jazzy, Dr. Sid, (So Dr. Sid dey do this kain thing too) and Tuface had all tasted from his served food. Tiwa Savage in turn accused him of being an irresponsible debtor and even eating the food and "Punnany" of a certain woman named "Edible Caterer". Am I the only one who find the Tiwa Savage side of the story as a horridly made up story to make it look like she is the victim here.

All being said and done, I knew this marriage was headed to rocks even from the onset. No be by 50 million Naira wedding or Dubai. Who with her clear eyes gets married to a man with two kids that has not finalized his divorce papers. Who gets married and still gives lap dance at the slightest opportunity? Who gets married and is quick to wear tight revealing dress to different function in the name of celebrity? You are inviting the devil to your marriage.

Oya e don do make una allow us rest for this issue. Na budget issue be the Koko. If Tiwa Savage and TeeBillz wants to reconcile, they should do so. Let them sit together somewhere away from the eyes of the public and tell themselves the truth whether they want to continue or not. But before then, other celebrity married women living Tiwa Savage kind of life should be careful.

WHY THERE SHOULD BE NO NEED FOR #ISTANDWITHBUHARI

One of the reasons i stopped supporting former president Goodluck Jonathan was his pretence not to know what was going wrong around him and the way he allowed himself to be misled by sycophants and praise singers. At a time when Nigerians were going through different economic hardship, Okonjo Iweala brought all manner of her IMF elitist tactics and statistics to the point of rebasing our GDP and bestowed on us as the largest economy in Africa while many could not afford a day meal.

At first when Bokoharam was getting out of hand, many of his aides and associates made him believe it was a north thing or that it was devised to destabilize or Discredit his government. These sycophants, (many of which do this for their own selfish interests and pockets) will tell him that he is the best President Nigeria ever had, that people only envy him because he has achieved a lot and that's why they are fighting his government. They even pitched him against some individuals, groups and so on. Today the outcome is glaring even to the blind.

There was an advert on NTA where GEJ was compared with such greats as Lee Kuan Yew, Mandela, Obama, among others. That they did it and he will do it. That those behind him are more than those against him. I was particularly pissed off by that unnecessary advert, i usually switch to other stations whenever i stumble on it. How could anyone deceive the president in such manner even when it's glaring that things are going wrong. Well, the 2015 elections showed those behind him and against him.

The same scenario as noted above has almost started playing out through the #IStandWithBuhari# campaigners, Led by someone who wanted us to bring back Jonathan but since Jonathan was not brought back, he has realised he is about to fall, hence his wish to stand with Buhari not because of his so much love the president but because of his selfish interest.

I believe there's no need for #IStandWithBuhari and those around the President must shield him away from these leeching sycophants. The President must not toll the line of his predecessor, he must allow the common man to be his judge. He must come out with policies that will bring the people out of poverty, homelessness, unemployment, create a secure nation and an enabling environment for businesses to thrive.

When there is progressive good governance, the populace themselves will feel it. They will know when there is no more fuel scarcity, good roads, electricity, reduction of prices of foodstuffs, change in governance and other indices that characterise a good government.

Why should there be need for IStandWithBuhari? Is Buhari about to fall or falling? Is he now stuck in one place that he can't walk anymore that we all have to stand with him? A government that is barely one year old and some political jobbers have started different sycophantic campaign for it. What for?

Please no one should deceive the President let us allow him to work and when the need arises for us to make an assessment of his government, we will do so in all good faith whether good or bad. For now lets not distract him.

What we should pray for is that by 2019 we will say #ThankYouBuhari

AN OPEN LETTER TO RIVERS STATE YOUTHS BEFORE THE 2016 RE-RUN ELECTIONS

RIVERS YOUTHS LET'S SHUN ELECTORAL VIOLENCE

My Fellow Rivers youths, elections are test of popularity and not test of guns and Machetes. In 48 hours time we will all file out to elect our representatives for different parliamentary positions in a rerun election.

My brothers and sisters let us not play into the hands of selfish and greedy politicians and those who does not wish Rivers State well. The violence, killings and bloodshed since the build up to the general elections in 2015 have been one too many, worrisome and has continued till this day.

Rivers youths, let us stand up for once and defend our state. Come Saturday, march 19, 2016 let us use our thumb to make a statement. Let us conduct ourselves peacefully before and after the elections and accept the outcome in good faith no matter our divide. This is not about APC or PDP but about Rivers state. Elections, politicians, political parties will come and go but Rivers state will remain.

Let us not buy into the nonsense that is been sold to us by those who are bent on destroying our State. They have deviced many tactics in this regard.
One of such nonsense is that what happened in Bayelsa will happen in Rivers State. Let us ask them what happened in Bayelsa? How many people from Ekiti, Osun, Kaduna, Katsina or Anambra died in Bayelsa State? That some politicians decided to kill their people because of power you want it to be replicated in Rivers State? Most of those who died in that election were Bayelsans. My brethren lets tell them we are wiser.
Another of such nonsense is APC is northern party while PDP is South South party. But today, who is the leader of PDP, what religion and who is the leader of APC and what religion? This same people who use this divisive ideas to divide us will jump to any of these political party they castigate so long it will favour them. Political parties are meant to be used in getting to political office and no one is meant for a particular region in a democracy. Lets be wise.

Some of this politicians that many of us fight for do not even care about us. If they do, they will tell their children to lead most of this onslaught against perceived political enemies. They will provide employment for us instead of giving us guns, Machetes, and incitement against one another.

If we must support any politician or party, let us do so like educated youths and people who believe in the development of the state. We can engage in intellectual debates, rallies and seminar on any issue not in killing of ourselves over some politicians that some of us are better than.

Rivers youths do not put your life on the line for any politician. Vote and shun violence.

God bless Nigeria
God bless Rivers State.
God bless Nigerian Youths

NIGERIA'S PRESENT ECONOMIC PREDICAMENT AND THE NEED TO SAVE FOR THE FUTURE

Back in school, there's one of our lecturers that use to say, "Do not live the life you are suppose to live in ten years time now" there's a saying that do not live a life of champaign on beer income, one of my uncles then no matter how small always remains his food and when i enquired why? He said "You must always save for the rainy day".

The above assertions apply to Nigeria's present economic woes. What we are experiencing today is bad economic decision and policies by past administrations and leaders. There was a time when oil price sold above $100 per barrel, what did we do with the money, today it sells for a paltry $36 or there about. If we want skyscrapers to be built now with $30 daily income on oil barrel, then those who watched over while we sold it for $100 should refund us the excesses.

What do you expect when over the years and even till now, no one knows the actual take home of a senator in Nigeria including allowances. It is believed that a people numbering less than 200 share a great percentage of our annual budget. This is why when i see one man who says he is making common (NON)sense on TV i shake my head and just laugh. Till date he has not told Nigerians his take home as a senator or the pay cheque of an average Senator.

We were all here when a man opened our treasury and began to share money meant to fight crime among his cronies and you think there's no consequences for that? During the 2015 Presidential elections, i saw dollars everywhere. I wondered then if it has become our legal tender. Today the Naira is now shy whenever it sees the dollars. How can you go about spending dollars in a Naira economy and think the Naira won't be weakened?

Over the years we have based our political choice on ethnicity, religion and party. Hence our various bad leaders. Today what do we get? A leader enriches people from his region to the detriment of the Nation. If those who have been at the corridors of power have structured or restructured the country on strong economic, judicial, legislative, social institutions among others, we wouldn't have been this polarised as a nation today and faced with this myriads of problems as if we just gained Independence. A situation where some group of unpatriotic business men hold a nation to ransoms in the name of subsidy, or importation of various goods. This importers see themselves as demi gods and even sabotage Government efforts. When people take delight in suffering fellow citizens knowing they would blame government.

It is so saddening that a man told us he had no shoe before going into an office. But when he got there, he forgot all those who also had no shoes like him rather he bought more shoes for those who already have. That is why today many of us including me still walk bare footed. If he had bought us shoes, would they all have been bad this early that he left office that we still walk about barefooted?

Every day, we hear diversification. Previous administrations told us they have diversified and that agriculture has been boosted. Today the prices of foodstuffs that are locally made have skyrocketed including banned imported ones. If we have improved agriculture as we were told, why are we suffering just now they left. Where are the agricultural products?

We were told they built power plants that power have been privatised and electricity have improved. But today we hardly see light and when we do, it does not last and my friends say it has epilepsy. If power had been improved by past administrations, we would not have had it this bad even in the worst economic condition. Or is power also affected by dollar rise?

What we face today, is a lesson to us, not only to government but to everyone. When there's is surplus, a time will come when there might be nothing or reduced. In whatever we do, we must save for the rainy day. Today we suffer the consequences of our bad decisions. Many want a quick fix to a problem that took years to materialize. Is that possible?

Before we cry we must be Objective. This writer knows many who does not have a job today, but they still did not have six years ago. But they blame this Government more. And you begin to wonder. In those six years, they depended on crumbs from top politicians and forgot they needed a job and today those politicians no longer participate in yam and cow sharing, and as such no more crumbs for them.

If past government have done their job with the masses at heart and the love for humanity, maybe we wouldn't have been this impoverished or hit by this recent economic macabre dance.

Next time when have surplus, let us remember to save, or encourage those who manage our resources to do so.

We would love to hear from you, have you saved for the rainy day? Use the comments box. Critics are welcomed.

BEFORE WE BECOME A HATED REGION

,During the controversy surrounding the then President Yar'Adua's illness and the call for then Vice President Goodluck E. Jonathan to be made the acting President, It was the Save Nigeria Group (SNG) led by Pastor Tunde Bakare, Prof. Wole Soyinka and other well meaning Nigerians that took it upon themselves to organize protests and rallies to demand that Jonathan be made an acting President. These were Yoruba men who believe the right thing should be done at all times. With the pressure from these groups and the international communities coupled with divine providence, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was made an acting President in 2010.

During this time, Ankio Briggs, Edwin Clarke, Akpabio, and other acclaimed activists from Niger Delta never organized any rally, not even in PortHarcourt, Warri or Calabar. They remained silent. Fortunately when Jonathan won Presidential in 2011 and during his reign as President, the wife who is constitutionally irrelevant decided to throw shades and insults to a man who fought for her husband's emergence as the President of the most populous Nation in Africa.

During this time, the South East who later adopted Jonathan as their son, never blocked the Onitsha bridge to demand that he be made President, they were doing "Sit down look". But fast forward to 2015 General elections, Jonathan became the best thing after Ojukwu and they will do anything to bring him back to power. Incase many don't know, the acclaimed love for Jonathan was not due to the fact that Jonathan was the best for the presidency, or that he was truly their son as they claimed but because they enjoyed lots of Privileges and juicy positions during his reign as the President many of which plunged us into this present economic quagmire.

They told everyone who cared to listen how Jonathan was not allowed to rule in peace, how Apc caused every problem in Nigeria how they are Islamic party, Northern party etc. They came up with the rubbish that Amaechi is a betrayer and Judas. (I guess Edwin Clarke now is also a betrayer going by his recent utterances and dumping of the PDP) Like their gullible followers who buys into anything they utter, even when they do so for political gains, they replicated it everywhere possible and even took such illiterate sentiments that should have been questioned to the polls and crashed. Today they blame every other region for their woes.

The above background form the basis of this article. After losing the election, instead of learning from the loss that Nigerians were fed up of gross incompetence and pseudo leadership exhibited by President Jonathan, they continued with their irrelevant party sentiments, they pushed unnecessary sentiments to the South-South. This days you will hear such nonsense from some section of the youths in South-South as APC has no place in South-South and South-East, they are Islamic party with Islamic agenda and other nonsense.

I must remind my Brothers from the South-South that as at 2014, there were two States that belonged to the APC (Rivers and Edo). That the founding fathers of the PDP came from different region of the country and so also is APC. The APC has among its founding fathers Ogbonaya Onu, Tom Ikimi, Rochas Okorocha etc. From the South-South and South-East so how then is it a Northern or Islamic party? It must pointed out that every party was registered at the National level and serves as a platform for anyone to achieve its political ambition and contribute their own quota to national building. No party was registered as a Regional one.

The nonsense of terming a political party as religious or regional will not profit our Region the South-South. We must resist such nonsense being sold to us by political miscalculators. Every political party should be embraced by our people. We should not demonize any political party out of sentiments but we should criticize them based on facts, sound arguments, and having the interest of the Nation at heart. No matter what they do or say, if they must rule this nation, the votes of South-South and South-East will not be enough to earn them the Presidency seat. So lets allow them continue in their irrelevant sentiments. But when any of their politicians want to achieve their political ambition, they will jump into such party they hated yet their gullible, illiterate followers being used. Like many of them are doing now.

I am appealing to my South-South brothers and sisters especially the youths not to join in this nonsense of terming a political party as belonging to a particular region or religion. When you say a political party is for a region or religion, what do you mean by that? What do u tend to achieve with that? How do you want such region to feel about you? Before we become hated like the miscalculating region lets put a stop to that nonsense. We will rule this country again that is certain. If we must do that we will need the support of other regions and a political party to achieve that. We must not play into the hand of mischief makers, discord creators. Let us stop the saying that a particular party is for a region or religion and has no place in South-South. It will do us no good.

THINGS IPOB SUPPORTERS SHOULD CHANNEL THEIR PROTESTS INTO IN THE SOUTH EAST

It must be pointed out that when a people misplaces priorities, they begin to live a confused life. Since the loss of President Jonathan at the poll, there are insignificant few who does not want to come to terms with the reality on ground. These persons have cashed in to the misguided message of a man based in London and who might not suffer any consequence of his unguarded utterances and resurrection of a painful experience over 35 years ago. This misguided few go by the Name Indegeneous People of Biafra. (IPOB) they have been engaging in protests. What they arepprotesting for is unclear to me. But here are lists of what they should channel their energy into instead of the present one they have embarked on. ________________________________________________________ 1. GOOD GOVERNANCE IN THE SOUTH EAST: Imagine these IPOB supporters carrying placards that they demand good governance from all Five South East Governors. That they want the allocation that is received by South East Governors to be judiciously used to develop the area. That the available resources should be harnessed for the betterment of the people. This will be lauded than wearing black and blocking the only road that connect your region and others. ________________________________________________________ 2. GOOD LEADERS : Are you kidding me? After the poor leadership exhibited by T.A Orji he was still voted into the senate? The South East is lacking in terms of quality leaders full of integrity and ready to work for the people. These IPOB supporters should demand that they be represented by leaders of proven integrity. ________________________________________________________ 3. EDUCATION OF THE POPULACE: Many believe that a particular region are the ones that are more uneducated in the country or has more illiterates. This is erroneously erroneous. Someone stays in London and ask you to stockpile arms for war, you should kill other tribes, and many heeded to his wrong command and even started disturbing the peace of a Nation cos such person was arrested? In 21st century? I wont say much on this. _______________________________________________________ 4. STATE CREATION: The time and energy used in blocking Onithsa bridge, imagine channeling such energy in demanding from the legislatures one more State for the region. Have a conference where they will mandate all their representative to push for at least this singular agenda even though its their only achievement in four years. ________________________________________________________ 5. POLITICAL RESTRUCTURING: The south east is always miscalculating politically and this the end product of bad leadership. Ojukwu contested and they voted Obasanjo, there was a candidate of Igbo extraction in Lagos and they left him to rally behind Jimi Agbaje how? Seriously how? You saw a man whose six years in power was a disaster you decided to throw all your weight behind him. Just because Ngige was in APC you left him and voted Ekwunife thereby losing the senate presidency. There is need for serious overhaul of the political structure of the south east party sentiments should be replaced with outstanding individual qualities of integrity, accountability and believe in the development of the people. ________________________________________________________ 6. PURGING THE PEOPLE OF UNECESSARY POLITICAL SENTIMENTS: The South East needs to be purged of some meaningless, unnecessary, irrelevant and unprofitable political sentiments. APC is an Islamic party, they are Bokoharam party. Do you mean it? No wonder APGA has not gone beyond Abia State because it should be regarded as Yahoo Yahoo , Ritualists, and 419 party. No party was registered in a particular region they were all registered at the National level and should serve as platform to actualize anybody's political ambition no matter your tribe or religion. The South South should be weary of this type of sentiments and avoid it because some discord creators have started creating this impression on the region and it should be resisted. You want the presidency of this country and you are demonizing a party? What if that party is your only sure way of climbing to that post will you get there? IPOB supporters should use their energy to pursue this course and change this type of sentiments in the SE. ________________________________________________________ 7. DEVELOPMENT OF THE SOUTH EAST: I would have left my duty post to join the demonstrations if it was for development of the south East. Such developmental issues like Second Niger bridge, a seaport, building of industries, etc should have formed the basis for the protests. Business men and women from the region prefer to invest more outside than in the region. Go to Trade Fair, Alaba Market, Computer Village, Kano Main Market etc. They form major stakeholders in this places. Development of the region is needed more and should be vogorously pursued. _____________________________________________________

HOW TO CELEBRATE VAL WITH YOUR LOVER IF YOU ARE BROKE.

Though Valentine day was not intended for romantic relationships, but over the years lovers have hijacked it as a day of celebrating their love for one another and it seems it will forever remain so.

On valentine day, many people expects gifts from their lovers and maybe for the guy to take them out. (this is a Nigerian mentality though, as many western and developed nations have surpassed this "na man suppose take woman out" attitude). But due to the harsh economic condition and youth unemployment, valentine is sometimes not enjoyed by the poor and low income earners
Here are ways to go about the valentine day if u don't have money or broke.

On that day, try to do something no matter how small. On that day, clean your house in a new way possibly, some romantic arrangement with your lover's pix or pix of both of you together, hanged/pasted in diferent places in your room.

Lets assume you have 600 Naira with you, you can buy meat #200, two cups of rice, where i stay its #60 per cup, tin tomatoes and fresh one #100, Oil #50 and maggi #10 amounting to 480. Ask her to boil rice make stew with those foodstuffs that day. Allow her wear one of your T-shirts while she do the cooking then buy soft drinks with the remaining #120.
Enjoy the meal together with laughter, teasing, and feeding of each other. Please compliment her cooking.

If you are opportuned to have a tv/dvd watch some romantic movies or play music, If you don't have, play some party jamz with your phone so both of you can dancefor some hours and thereafter play some heart touching cool music (blues) like:
Forever – Paul Play
I swear – boyz to men
I swear – westlife
Don't brake ma heart – Banky W
Because you loved me – Celine Dion.

After the music, sit together on your bed, look into her eyes, hold her hands and let her know how your world have not remained the same since you met her, how you wish to see her grow old with you, how you cherish every moment you spend with her, that she owns your heart alone. Let her know that tomorrow will be better than today, that you will pay her patience and love with hardwork to give both of you a better future. Let her know its not by mr. Bigg's, shoprite, Tantalizers etc, but by what you truly feel down your heart and soul.

Retire to your bed late at night and spend the night the way you wish.

Happy Val in advance friends.

"YOU WANT MR. RIGHT WHEN YOU ARE MISS. WRONG"

,Most times when you see a single lady and you engage her in a conversation on why she is not married, they often give many reasons but one that has most times formed their argument is that they have not seen ''Mr right''. When you probe further on what qualifies a man as Mr right? Then you are in for an answer that could rival any essay in a WAEC exam. You will such things as he must be tall, handsome, rich, treat me like a queen, must not be a cheat, and others to numerous to mention.

As they say, what is good for the goose is also good for the gander, many women want MR. RIGHT but are MISS WRONG. Equity demands that since you want Mr. Right, you should also be "Miss right" of strive to be one in order to strike a balance when you both finally meet or even to be ahead of other women in getting married.

Sadly enough, many women are "Miss Wrong". They don't have what it takes to be married. They want to get married but they still keep more than one man, many of these Mr right seeking ladies can't cook, clean the home, and do laundry. They lack rudimentary elements of how to make a successful home. A friend of mine just parted ways with a certain lady who each time she cooks, the oil used in preparing such meal will be enough to cook three different types of food. He has tried to teach her, but it appears there's no success in sight.

Some of these women have not improved themselves over the years to make a man consider them for marriage. Many over eat themselves and get unnecessarily fat and ugly, what to them is beauty is to fix all the artificialities of this world and engage in frivolous spending on irrelevant things. Some ladies, their wardrobe alone can start three boutiques in their street of which none of the money used in buying those things was sourced by them.


A lady that is up to marriage age should have something doing and has weaned herself off different bad characters. You don't expect to married to a Mr right and you are Miss wrong yourself are expecting to go and pollute his rightness or complement it. Will it be fair to be Miss wrong and you expect Mr right?

THE FINAL WHISTLE HAD ALREADY BEEN BLOWN

After the 2015 Presidential residential elections, many were not happy
that President Mohammadu Buhari emerged victorious. To these people it
was like they were still dreaming. After all the mudslinging, smear
and hate campaign how did Buhari still win the elections? Well
Nigerians voted for Change and thats it. When the result were
anounced, Goodluck Jonathan called Buhari and congratulated him, some
Nigerians called him a hero. Hero for what? For accepting that he lost
an election? Well, we accept he is a hero for losing an election he
nearly jeopardized.

That being the case, some people have refused to move on after the
elections especially in a particular section of the country. But we
must remind these people that as an ''Abobaku'' (in some Youruba
culture, a man who is supposed to live and die with the king) it
amounts to betrayal not to have gone into oblivion with your master
and party. They have resulted to unecessary and meaningless criticism
of the present Government to the point that a presidential media aid
have christined them ''Wailing Wailers''. You will hear such
meaningless statements as he said he wants to fight corruption yet he
is surrounded by Tinubu Atiku, Amaechi etc. So because in your
factless claim that some of the president's party associates are
corrupt he should not fight corruption? These same people termed as
corrupt have been with us since the last sixteen years yet your
masters did nothing about them. If you have a chance to kill your
enemies and you fail to do so, if your enemies have the same chance
and decides to kill you should you blame them? The President declared
an asset and in a supposed sane nation with sane Abobakus they could
not challenge his declaration in court rather they say its a lie . But
they wanted us to continue with a man who said he doesnt give a damn
about asset declarartion. Please the elections are over, unless you
want to conduct another unofficial one between the former President
and the Present which changes nothing till 2019.

These people come up with different criticisms without profering any
reasonable solution to pressing National issues just like their party
PDP who only attack institutions recently because to them in their
sixteen years of destruction, these institutions never functioned and
should continue so. One man who has still not come to terms with the
reality on ground is Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose the "Market man
governor" whose next likely project to be commissioned might be the
distribution of chicken or fish to Ekiti people. He goes about
releasing meaningless stamens and recently his doom prediction for
Nigeria in 2016. But we must also remind him that he predicted worst
before the election especially the one on the current President being
in a London hospital many of which were false. We hope Fayose is not
indirectly predicting doom for himself?

Wailing wailers, the PDP, haters of President Buhari, haters of
Nigeria. Let me further add to your missery. The final whistle had
already been blown and like in the game of football, this tournament
have come to an end. Months after the President took over, what your
party and party affiliates made us believe were impossible had started
been possible. Atleast we can cut cost of governance and not travell
with a whole comunity for international engagement neither do we
budget for unecessary Firstladyship. Even in the face of dwindling Oil
prices, this Government came up with 6 trillion Naira budgets the
first of its kind in the country.

More have been done but thats not the intent of this article. Let me
remind you all that the glory days of this administration is still
ahead and no matter what, this present administration will be better
than the previous. So stop the irrelevant criticisms it will do you no
good. But if it heals your sorrow of the loss at the polls you can
continue but just know that you are already a nuisance to the society
with it.
