A Lesson from "APC Wedding" Chaired by the PDP 
Raphael Ogar Oko
PDP Governor Akpabio made an interesting proposal at the wedding reception of the daughter of APC Governor Rochas Okorocha on inter state marriage by young Nigerians. He proposed that the beautiful ladies of Imo state should not focus on marrying fellow handsome gentlemen in Imo state only but seek to marry extra handsome gentlemen from Akwa Ibom state. He also mentioned that he has practiced what he is proposing by marrying outside Akwa Ibom state. He has sent a strong message that all of us should think about in the effort for national unification.

Governor Rochas also need to be commended for inviting Governor Akpabio to Chair the wedding program. As APC Governors Forum Chair, he kept political differences aside and reached out to the PDP Governors Forum Chair. If all politicians can keep aside political differences and work together for national unity and integration, Nigeria will emerge one of the greatest nation on earth in a short time

15 areas Nigeria is better than America

United States of America may be better than Nigeria in many ways, but there are also areas Nigeria is better than U.S. I have compiled just 15 of them for a start. Read and leave your comment. 1. Intelligence and smartness Nigerians are the most intelligent people in the world. Yes, they are the smartest you find anywhere in the world. However, the problem with intelligent and smart people is that, in anything they do, their intelligence and smartness come to play and others in the same circle hardly match their rare skills. In business, they will be intelligent and smart, in education, they will be intelligent and smart, in music and entertainment, they will be intelligent and smart and also in criminality, they will be intelligent and smart. As we all know, negative stories sells faster than anything else and this explains why Nigerian criminals are also world famous for their craft. Nigerian criminals, particularly the internet scammers are not in any way more dangerous than...

Former president of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has insinuated that Patience Jonathan, wife of the president, Diezani Alison-Madueke, Petroleum Minister, Stella Oduah, former Aviation Minister and Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Finance Minister are all ‘Presidents’ of Nigeria, noting that Goodluck Jonathan comes behind the quartet and is the weakest of them all. Extracts from the three-volume autobiography of Obasanjo, titled, “My Watch” revealed how critical he is of Jonathan’s administration. “Five presidents in Nigeria, these were his wife, Diezani, Oduah, Ngozi, Goodluck Jonathan and that he was the weakest of the five,” Obasanjo wrote in ‘My Watch’. Photo: SaharaReporters Photo: SaharaReporters Obasanjo also said Jonathan is incapable of governing well because he is selfish, weak-willed, callous and incapable of rising to the challenges of running a complex country like Nigeria. According to SaharaReporters, an attempt by Buruji Kashamu, a senatorial aspirant on the platform of...

Buhari Executed My Father But I Will Still Vote For Him" - Lawal Ojuolape's Son

-
1985, Three young men , Lawal Ojuolape (30), Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26) were taken to bar-beach. Those days that was the place where condemned criminals faced the firing squad. What was the offence of these three young men you might ask?.They had been found guilty of drug trafficking. Death penalty for drug traffickers was a decree that the Buhari/Idiagbon military junta introduced after they had seized power from Shagari. There was public outcry,people pleaded for their lives to be spared. International organisations jointly called for the halt in their execution but to no avail. Buhari insisted that discipline must be instilled! death was the way? That faithful morning they were led with their hands and legs bound. Eye witnesses say when they were tied to the spot in which they were to be shot,the three of them started singing. They sang a religious song that made the excited onlookers cry. As the bullets ripped through their body,hitting vital organs and thei...

I'm better than Messi and Ronaldo- Figo   Mr.rights have learnt the former Portugal star took a light-hearted view of the debate over the world's top talent as he believes it is too difficult to choose between them Former Real Madrid and Barcelona winger Luis Figo has described himself as the best player in the world - so as not to have to choose between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi . Ronaldo has been in scintillating form so far this season, scoring 19 times in 11 matches, while Barca star Messi has notched seven goals and seven assists for Luis Enrique's side. The nominations for the 2014 Ballon d'Or are to be announced on October 28 , with current holder Ronaldo and four-time winner Messi both expected to be named as the debate over who is the world's best player rages on.

WHEN DID GTBANK BECOME THIS USELESS?

I do not know when GTB suddenly become this kind of a useless bank, but what one of My friend is currently experiencing is very frustrating and a betrayal of customers trust. This is what happened. A friend of mine (Ib) operate a GTB savings account in Ilorin, Kwara state, but due to his kind of job, he suddenly find himself in Delta state, a remote town that only one bank operates there (ECOBANK). Whenever he needs to lodge money into his account, there is no way to do that, but finally, he had an agreement with the ECOBANK in the town. One of the ECOBANK staff would receive the amount to be lodged in cash, then transfer the amount to his GTB account. This has been the way since he gets to that town. And if they need to withdraw cash for any reason, of course, the ATM is there. But for the past 3 weeks, my friend IB has been unable to withdraw money from his GTB account. He noticed it first when he went to Asaba and tried to withdraw with his ATM and it declined. So, he went to the...

Say Something, a compilation by Abdulrazaq O Hamzat

It’s very difficult to speak to a lot of people without offending someone. People walk around with their feelings on their shoulders waiting for you to say something. Opinion police are out there all the time. We have actually reached the point where people are afraid to actually talk about what they want to say because somebody might be offended. I am reminded of a very successful business man who loves to buy his mother these exotic gifts for mother’s day. One year, he ran out of ideas on what to buy and then, he ran across these birds. These birds were cool, you know? They cost $5000 apiece. They could dance, they could sing, they could talk! He was so excited, he bought two of them. Sent them to his mother and couldn’t wait to call her up on mothers day, ‘’mother, mother, what’d you think of those birds?’’ And she said, ‘’they was good.’. He said, No, no, no, mother, you didn’t eat those birds? Those birds cost $5000 apiece. They could dance, they could sing, they could talk!...
