“Mark my words, whatever happens to you today, happens to me”, the Colonel had bravely told the General. Lt. Col Adekunle Fajuyi was a man who was so detribalised that he willing gave his life for an Igbo man even though he knew he would have been allowed to live if he had given up the Head of State. Such bravery and Show of Unity in a detribalized Nigerian should have been celebrated like a national festival and then we would have seen if ethnic and religious crisis would have thrived in our nation.  The Igbo tribe should have put up monuments to celebrate this great Nigerian who stood and died for one of their own. I weep for my nation for turning blind eye to issues that would not score political goals or derive political benefits. How many Nigerians today will replicate that same feat even amongst their own brothers? Lt. Col. Adekunle Fajuyi should have been the Face of Nigeria's Unity A GIFT AWAITS YOU HERE        Come Join the #1 Affiliate Network! Tommy Hi

A young Nigerian man with an unusual medical condition leaving one of his legs suspended in the air will now receive treatment to be sponsored by the Kogi State government. The man was spotted by Barry Idakwo in a village near Ugbamaka, Olomaboro local government of Kogi State. Ahmed Attah, the special assistant on Health to Governor Bello who also works at Specialist Hospital Lokoja revealed that the young man is expected in Lokoja today for treatment under the auspices of the Kogi State Health Funds for Indigent Citizens established by Governor Yahya Bello. “I can confirm to you that the young man is being expected in Lokoja today (he was expected Monday and yesterday actually, but the Secretary to his LGA who was supposed to have brought him was held up by some emergencies). Arrangements have already been concluded with the Orthopedic Surgeon who will attend to him once he gets here. “This young man from Inele is going to be given a ne

Looking at the picture above brought back fresh pangs of hunger and memories of all the hunger I have ever felt in my entire life. I could not help but wonder what is going on in so many homes living under the poverty line. A lot of children crying out in huger in so many homes and some mothers forcing their dry breasts into the mouths of their last children who are still toddlers just to placate them. I just pray blood does not flow out in place of milk. Still looking at the picture, I can see some governors who have not paid workers’ salaries for months and some with several abandoned projects scattered across their states yet with high performance ratings only in sponsored media documentaries. The total expenditure of a single governor in this photo is enough to offset at least a month salary or complete one of the numerous abandoned projects. I hate looking at the picture because it exposes the folly of the Nigerian project where forex which is needed to shore up our economy

I was to travel to Umuahia in Abia state for my cousin’s traditional marriage ceremony and I boarded a bus from Jibowu park in Lagos state. I got a seat beside a beautiful fair lady with curves at the right places. She had a velvety smooth skin that glowed under the early morning sun. I was so happy and excited to have such a beauty as a travel companion but I knew it could come at a cost which I was willing to bear even though I knew it would have an adverse effect on my spending schedule for the trip. Cost notwithstanding, I made up my mind to do all within my power to get acquainted with her. Please do not preach to me because I am still single and searching though  broke (story for another day). We got talking as I had planned and got along very well. There was a general discussion in the bus going as the journey progressed which centred on the Igbo secession demand and Biafra in general. While some supported Biafra, others were against it and gave their reasons. It got heated

In the face of biting harsh economic conditions in Nigeria, Nigerians in their characteristic adaptive nature have devised means to mitigate its effect and prevent it in the future by equipping underage kids with manual labour skills. With high unemployment rates, it is important and necessary for Nigerian youths to have other skills other than just formal education so as to become self employed rather than searching for jobs that are not available and when available not sufficient to pay bills. I recently ran into a kid who was being trained in the art of making cement mortar for wall plastering and buildings in general. See video after cut.

Mr. José Eduardo dos Santos, The President of Angola arrived in Lunanda late Wednesday after spending 17 days in Spain for medical treatment. He was accompanied by his wife, the First Lady, Ana Paula dos Santos. They were received at the Luanda military air base by Vice-President Manuel Domingos Vicente and other top officials of his government. The president has visited Spain severally since 2013 with his last visit being touted as a private visit by presidential media aide. In a previous visit in may which lasted a total of 28 days, it was rumoured that he has passed on due to the fact that no official explanation for his prolonged absence in the country. President dos Santos has been in power since in 1979 and the country will go to the polls in August which may eventually see the president going into retirment. It is likely the Defence minister João Lourenço may replace him as he has been nominated as the flag-bearer of the ruling party for the August 23rd

Nnamdi Kanu/ IPOB Leader Pix Source: Naij.com A bird had a nest of chicks and each time she flew away and returned to her nest, she would ask her chicks, “when will the farmer harvest the farm?” They will reply “he said he will ask his brother to harvest for him tomorrow” and the mother bird will say, “then there will be no food for us tomorrow.” Another time she asked and they replied, “he said he will ask his son to harvest for him” and at a different occasion they responded that he has asked his friend to help him out. The chicks always got the same reaction from their mother which was always “there will be no food for us tomorrow.” One day the mother bird returned and asked the chicks the same question and they responded, “the farmer said he will harvest the farm himself tomorrow” and then the mother bird chirped happily “wow! We will surely have food tomorrow.” The only assurance of accomplishment is that which has been guaranteed by your own action. Many a

Newly repented Tonto Dike who recently had a running battle with her ex husband has shown love to her professional colleague Halima Abubakar. Halima Abubakar recently announced a successful surgery to remove fibroid and has been recuperating. Tonto Dike posted this pix yesterday of her and announced she was going to take care of her. It is not certain if she has other ailments other than recuperating from the recent surgery beccause the pix uploaded showed she was in a not too good condition. Our prayer is that whatever has brought down Halima Abubakar will not keep her down forever but will be an avenue to show the greatness of God. Tonto please keep up the love and encourage other colleague of yours to give a helping hand to others who might be down. Share your thoughts by commenting.

Several weeks ago the media was awash with stories of a certain Evans (Chukwuduneme Onwuamadike) who was known as a kidnap kingpin and dubbed the biggest and richest kidnapper in the land. He had evaded arrests and had a field day beating security agencies in their own game. How he managed to pull this off is a story for another day. The media in their attempt to make profitable headlines and increase readership online and paper kept reporting him and even ran commentaries on mundane things such as his dressing while in detention. Some made documentaries on his wealth and opulence. The volume of information at the disposal of the public was alarming that at a time it seemed the public knew even more than even the Inspector General of Police and/or Head of the taskforce team Abba Kyari that arrested him. Everyone suddenly became an authority on the Evans story. Everyone suddenly knew something about him or at one time or the other claimed to have interacted with him. Nollywood Movie

It is abstract, yet so real. It can be felt yet not touched but it can touch others. It is mutual yet can be selfish. It gives life but has equally taken lives. A great source of joy yet brings sorrow and and sadness. Over-zealous yet lackadaisical and taken for granted. Builds dynasties yet has destroyed dynasties. Builds bonds yet destroys greatest of bonds. It conquers all ......
