It was Carl Shurz who said that " you cannot subvert your neighbours rights without striking a dangerous blow at your own.
The Niger delta and by extension the South South south East Geo- political zone produce over 90% Of Nigeria's crude.
Till date crude oil Export still account for over 80% of Nigeria's export earnings.
Taking
a critical look at the lopsided nature of recent appointments ,the
complex "ethnoreligioous" composition of the Nigerian state, this
statement by General Buhari can set the nation of Fire
“Going by
election results, constituencies that gave me 97% can not in all
honesty be treated, on some issues, with constituencies that gave me 5%.
I think these are political realities. While, certainly there will be
justice for everybody but the people who voted, and made their votes
count, they must feel the government has appreciated the effort they put
in putting the government in place. I think this is really fair”
President Muhammadu Buhari.

The
President must desist from sectionalising the country and see
himself as father to all , Yes it is correct to reward support but
openly coming out to tell a region that accounts for 90 % of your
earning that they will be "punished" for voting for your opponent who
incidentally is their son, is a recipe for anarchy and return to the
days of lawlessness just that this time it will come with the blessings
entire states and communities.
The North gave President Jonathan
the least number of votes in 2011 but the North benefited the most from
the Jonathan administration.
Over 402 Almajiri schools were built ,
the First High speed rail in sub-Saharan Africa went to the North ,
Massive rice cultivation and empowerment of Northern rice Farmers , 9 of
the 11 brand New Universities established by President Jonathan were
located in the North, the contract for the Mambila Hydro electric plant
is the biggest contract awarded by the Jonathan Administration .
Inflicting
more pain on the South South after the defeat of their Son by Almajiri
votes in the words of Gov Kwankwaso leaves much to be desired.
May God Continue to Bless Nigeria and Nigerians!
Shalom!!!!!

WORDS FROM A MOTHER TO HER DAUGHTER ABOUT MARRIAGE – BY CHM11
court.
2. The wife that uses sex as a weapon in the home - placing embargo, going to bed in jeans shorts and
trousers -lacks wisdom.
3. The wife that uses the modern trends and laws of "women's rights" to insult or ridicule her husband simply makes a fool of herself.
4. A woman that makes her home devoid of peace
through bickering, nagging and quarrels needs help.
A man should be eager to run away from office to be at home, for that should be the safest and closest place on earth for him.
5. Modern-day equality in marriage does not mean competition, It simply means partnership. Taking advantage of such equality to turn around and become the defacto head of the home and oppress the man is tantamount to playing with fire. If you destroy your home, soon you will be the boss of an empty home.
6. A wise wife makes the man feel so good that he
assumes that he is the head. Once he gets that
feeling, the woman gently wields her power and the head actually turns to wherever the neck wants without a protest.
7. A wife that does not pull herself away from
friends' influence and advice or even from the
control of her mother and father will have herself to blame.
8. When a man is looking for a wife, he bypasses
women of different shapes and sizes to choose a wife But soon after childbirth, many women hide under the excuse of childbirth to let go of themselves. Many stop bothering about their looks,shape, dressing, etc.
Within 5 years of marriage, people start wondering if the wife is the man's aunt, even though she is 7 years younger. Her defence is that if he truly loves her, he should love her the way she is but when looking for a wife, he saw people like the present YOU and ignored them and settled for the former YOU. Today, you go to bed smelling of onions.... You go to bed wearing grandmothers' clothes. Why are you playing with your marriage? Love is not about looks - we know But looks enhances love and marriage There is a difference between someone disfiguring herself and the person being disfigured by an accident. Please don't be complacent. As hard as it may be, work on looking like you were when he first saw you and began the chase.
9. If every night you are tired, sleepy, sore, down
with headache or fever, "not in the mood," you are a joker, a serious comedian!
10. If your children suddenly become more
important to you than your husband, you need
prayers.
11. If you assume that as the woman, only you need to be pampered and fussed over while the man is a stone that has no emotions, you need to be pitied.
12. A woman that has the mind of a wife does not
excite her husband. Wives are usually complacent
and presumptuous. A wife must strive to have the mind of a girlfriend, A girlfriend is always nicer, sweeter, more loving and always thinking of ways to wow her sweetheart; a girlfriend does not try to win all arguments, does not call the man a "useless man", is not careless about her looks or dressing, always smiles and laughs with the man, sends the man sweet
messages and calls, etc. Are you your husband's
girlfriend in word and in deed?
LASTLY, DO NOT INFORM ME OF YOUR QUARRELS, I DIDN’T JOIN YOU TOGETHER, GOD DID, GO AND
INFORM HIM AND HE WILL SORT YOU OUT.
GOD BLESS

THOSE WHO VOTED BUHARI ARE ALREADY REGRETTING !
On May 29 I while waiting to board an Arik Air flight I saw the official Portrait of President Jonathan hanging on the airport wall for the last few hours, I knew by the time I will be landing in Abuja most likely President Jonathan will no Longer be the President of Nigeria, so took the the "historic" photograph and Opened a Thread.
In that thread I wrote :
"Nigerians may never be able to properly and objectively assess the president until few months from now !"
Unfortunately just 2 months into General Buhari administration myself and many others have been proven right.
Those voted him into Power are already full of regrets From Tinubu to Nairalanders the story is the same. When I saw the post below (Screen Shots) my mind went straight to that post.
When we told them it was about GEJ experience and performance not about Osinbajo being a Redeemed Pastor or a Yoruba Man or Buhari being a Hausa man and a Muslim they attacked us.
Sadly we must Leave live with the consequences of this action imposed on us not by the majority but by a minority garnished by the votes of underage and invisible "Almajiri" in the words of Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso .
May The King Of Heaven Help our President Find Direction In Jesus Name!

WHEN NOT TO SHARE GRACE
Efe was eighteen years old when I met her for the first time
while traveling on a bus to Lokoja North Central, Nigeria. She had bright eyes
and was full of life but deep beneath the light skin and radiant face was a
story of pain, bitterness and love.
On a visit to her house few years ago, I noticed an unusual
tattoo on her wrist that got me curious and I asked “wetin de your hand sef”
(what’s that on your hand?) And she replied “It’s a long story and I don’t want
to talk about it anymore” as she opened the fridge at the corner of the living
room.
As I settled down into the soft leather sofa with a glass of
orange juice in front of me, Efe emerged from the kitchen, walked straight to
me and asked why I was interested on the scorpion tattooed to her wrist and I
simply told her I was scared of people with tattoos, she smiled and said
“finish your drink and I will tell you everything”.
“About ten years ago after the death of my father, my mother
took me to Aunty Evelyn her cousin in Gusau, Zamfara state, North West Nigeria.
I was about 12 years old. Madam as Aunty Evelyn was called treated me very
well; she changed my cloths and enrolled me at a private school few meters away
from her house. My joy knew no bounds as I quickly settled into my new
environment.
Aunty had a very big restaurant where she sold food and
alcohol. The business was booming, and the men who came to eat or drink at our
place will often give us money. Our restaurant was well organized, everyone of
the over 20 girls knew what was expected of each of them, apart from the
occasional girl quarrel everything was perfect, until the State Government
introduce the Sharia legal system (Islamic law).
The system brought about a sudden shut down of all premises
where alcohol was sold. The alcohol business was the livewire of our
restaurant; its ban completely crippled our business. For several months, we watched
as our once bustling restaurant and bar became a warehouse for chairs and
tables while Aunty became increasingly hostile as her business fortune
dwindled.
One Friday afternoon, Aunty summoned a meeting and informed
everyone that she was leaving town and closing the restaurant for good, this
did not come to me as a surprise as I had previously heard her discussing with
a lady over the phone about her plans to relocate.
Forty eight hours later, Aunty instructed the girls to pack,
selecting twelve of them to make the trip with us while others returned to
their families.
Fourteen of us including aunty left the city that night
aboard a Mercedes 911 truck which carried all our belongings and headed for the
garden city of Port Harcourt South of Nigeria. After a long
tortuous journey, we finally arrived a city bustling with
life and littered with expatriate oil workers who had lots of petro dollars,
Aunty had secured the perfect environment to re-launch her
businesses I said to myself. Two days after our arrival, our
sleep was disrupted by a loud bang
on our door, it was about 2 am in the morning and we were
terrified, but our fear soon gave way as we heard the voice of Aunty
Evelyn asking all the girls to move to her room. As we
stepped into her room, the sight of a middle aged woman in white cloth seating
over a big black pot sent further shock waves down our spines. On noticing the
fear on our faces, Aunty quickly calmed our nerves by introducing us one after
the other to the lady who immediately proceeded with the ceremony.
One after the other, the girls took turn to swear the oath
of allegiance to Aunty and Ohe, the goddess of the night. The consequence of
violating the oath was slow and painful death.
When I woke up that morning, I realized my legs were
swollen;my body was probably reacting to the concoction we had taken the
previous night before the scorpion was tattooed to our wrists.
Nevertheless, I soon joined the girls to entertain the white
men who had visited our lodge to welcome us to the city. The white men had lots
of dollars, and always lavished gifts and money on any girl who goes the extra
mile to satisfy their lust. As the years rolled by we slept with men of all
shades and characters, remitting eighty percent of our proceeds to Aunty. The
oil workers ensured we lacked nothing. Life was good or so we thought, until
Mene died.
Mene was my best friend, she had been sick for two days and
suddenly died on the third, we had all expected her to pull through, but she
never did.
Aunty did not allow us mourn as Mene was quickly buried at a
nearby bush and life continued as if nothing had happened. It was Mene’s death
that pushed me into deep reflections; I became
Lonely and depressed as I pondered over what had happened.
Mene had disagreed with Aunty a few days earlier over the fees we remit. Could
aunty have murdered my best friend? As wild thoughts ran through my mind, I
started planning my escape, and with every passing day I dreamt of the day when
I will be free from the clutches of the Ohe deity.
As I made my plans, I realized I would need some help if my
dream was to become a reality, so I shared my plot with a fellow roommate Ada,
who made me believe she also wanted out only to reveal my plans to Aunty.
I was in the market, buying food stuffs for the lodge when I
received a text message from Ovie Aunty Evelyn’s former boyfriend that Ada had
revealed my escape plans to Aunty. Straight up I knew I had to activate my plan
ahead of schedule, going back to the lodge was not an option.
Armed with the money to buy food stuffs, I headed for the
motor park. That day was the last time I saw Aunty.
I boarded a vehicle heading to Abuja Nigeria’s capital city.
The journey was very smooth and we arrived Abuja some few minutes before
midnight. As other passengers disappeared into the darkness I searched for a
spot where I could lay my head till the next day.
As the cockcrow signaled the birth of a new day, I moved
round the park in a bid to get familiar with my new environment which was
already bustling with life as tea sellers and restaurants light up their fire
place to prepare for the day’s business. As I moved round I stumbled on an
advert at a restaurant within the park which read, Sales girl wanted; apply in
person. That was my perfect opportunity, I applied immediately and started work
same
day.
As night falls and the once bustling motor park goes quiet I
and other workers spread our mats on the floor of the restaurant which also
served as our bedroom at night. My new madam was kind tome and her business
prospered under my watch. I never knew my HIV status until Victor proposed to
me and we had to do some laboratory test as a pre requisite for the
announcement of our wedding banns at our local church. Despite the fact that
the result came back positive, Victor still went ahead and married me and today
I have a son for him who is HIV negative, we received extensive counseling at
the clinic when I tested positive and continued to receive support even after
the birth of my son. Victor, my husband knew all I had gone through and was
wiling to support me all through.
Today, I have my own restaurant, a bundle of joy as a son
and a wonderful, caring and understanding husband. Heaven has been kind to me,
Oche” As I left her apartment that evening, I recall the words of my
mathematics teacher, Mr Rene, who said “every problem has a solution”
