IBB DEBUNKS STATEMENT ON PRESIDENT BUHARI

My attention has been drawn to a report making rounds especially online in which I was quoted as advising Nigerians not to vote for President Muhammadu Buhari in the coming 2019 election.

Not only is the said statement untrue, it is in its entirety, an inaccurate representation of my view of the state of our dear Nation.

As a former President and an elder statesman, I have existing communication channels through which I reach out to President Muhammadu Buhari on topical issues of national importance, should there be the need so to do.

The media, both online or mainstream and indeed the unsuspecting public are advised to disregard such false reports.

Thank you and God Bless you all.

WHY CHILDREN HATE SCHOOL IN NIGERIA  A social commentator with username ‘’smallpenis’’ on nairaland online forum have stated that,the level and standard of education is dropping in the country Day by Day,we can say this from the WAEC results of this year. Explaining why children hate school in Nigeria, he listed factors responsible for this situation. He wrote: Bad Teachers: if you compare the educational sector abroad to that of Nigeria,you will see that the teachers try to create an friendly environment,and make sure the children see them as friends they can trust,but here most teachers are only concerned about their paychecks. Poor Learning Aids: most of the schools across the country have little,poor or no learning aid. Learning aids are important for every child to learn well,infact it helps for easy remembrance during tests.

Lagos before Nigeria By Abdulrazaq O Hamzat

More than 50 years before the creation of Nigeria as a united entity, Lagos is already a major centre of modern civilisation. Lagos history is rich in Yoruba tradition, trade and commerce, infrastructural development and cosmopolitanism." -EXTRACTED In the past few days, i have followed the unhealthy debate between easterners in Lagos and their host and i must say that such is really uncalled for. No tribe or race is an island of knowledge and civilisation. At one time or the other, each one of them contributed in one way or the other. While it is proper for every one to feel good about themselves and try as much as possible to amplify in a good way, their importance and contribution to the society they live in, it is also very crucial to take into account, the reality of other factors without attempting to ridicule the contribution of others. I therefore advise all those joining the discuss to thread with caution and avoid things that are capable of setting our peop...

A Nigerian lady, Omarose Manigault who worked as communication aide to United States President, Donald Trump before resigning few months ago is currently in war with the U.S President in a way no one has ever imagined. The bold, brave, smart and articulate Omarosa is the kind of woman that can make the strongest man bow. Indeed, she is the kind of woman the Yoruba people often describe as Obirin bi Okunrin, meaning a woman like a man. In the past 3 weeks, Omarosa has seized the U.S media for herself, serving them with content from the highest level. Like never before, she is dealing with Donald Trump to the amazement of the American media. For the first time ever, Donald Trump is up against someone with the moral stamina and the required skills to serve him in his own coin and if you care to know, the beautiful lady is a Nigerian showing the typical can do Nigerian spirit. “My full name is Omorosaonee; it’s a Yoruba name that means, ‘my beautiful child desired.’ My father’s ...

MIND DON'T WORK IN TIME OF ANGER COMPILED BY MR.RIGHTS In anger, why do people break that mirror in which they are looking their own face? The answer is clear,  it's because the mind do not work in times of anger. They are angry at themselves, but they can't break their own face, so they break the mirror instead. Mirror on the wall, here we are again to my rise and fall you have been my only fan. In falling times,breaking a mirror means breaking yourself without hurting yourself physically, but you feel you did it in reality, because in that mirror on the other side is another you! It is in human nature not accept / admit our own follies, but mirror show us our own face that no one want to see including our self. That's why mirror face the consequences of our own anger. Great people are those who correct themselves to correct others. In anger time, we all look ugly in that mirror to our-self. While reflecting on the above compilations, i stumble on an article that wil...
