"MY ENEMIES ARE AT WORK" A former work-mate Jay was giving me the low-down about something that happened to him recently. A while back, he had attended an 'awesome' Halloween party, and had decided to go as a traditional masquerade. Ingenious right? Jay brought the mask back home after the party, and hung it as a decoration on his room wall. It was a really grotesque mask – just imagine the alien’s face in the movie Predator. I chided him for hanging up the mask in his room, as it stuck out like a sore thumb, spoiling the overall décor of the place. Fast forward, a month later, he pulled this really hot chick when he met at a wedding in Ph. They spoke on the phone for days, and then she promised to come visit him one Saturday. Jay got the place ready for the lass’s visit. He tried to make the pad ‘condusive’. He took out the sofa from the room, so that the girl would have to sit on the bed. He turned down the thermostat on his split unit AC so that the place wa...
Of the 73 presidential candidates for 2019 race, three are neck and neck in social media engagements by Nigerians, new social media data have revealed. According to the data, distilled from Facebook in particular, in the last 72 Hours, the trio of Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress, Abubakar Atiku of the Peoples Democratic Party and Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim of the People's Trust are in the frontline in that order. The data revealed a new development in the race as Olawepo-Hashim has surpassed other third force contenders to emerge the closest challenger to Buhari and Atiku. The other 70 candidates were far behind the three leading candidates especially on Facebook engagements where the bulk of Nigerians voters are known to be actively involved. Facebook was used for the rating as it represents a diversity of active voters across the occupational and professional lines. Facebook's geographical spread and acceptability also make it a good tool. While Buh...
Prof Yemi Osibanjo has dropped the final card, the ethnic card is one which only desperate politicians use, I remember meeting with him in November last year where we deliberated on very important national issues but I noticed we were all Christians. It's quite unfortunate that the ruling party does not have projects and results to use to campaign but rather would resort to using ethnicity in our already dangerously divided nation. A man of Osibanjo's credentials should never been seen peddling such garbage, the nation today is in desperate need of a true visionary leader not some ethnic jingoistic individuals, presidency 2023 should never even be in the bargain for now, but it's obvious they don't care, it's to them about power and who sways it. I am disappointed in the person of Yemi Osibanjo, a supposed pastor who suddenly has become a tribalistic politician who sees nothing wrong with his decapitated administration that is being controlled by two indivi...
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has said the comment by Chief Edwin Clark, that if the opposition has its way it can poison or kill President Goodluck Jonathan just to take power, is absurd, incendiary and unbecoming of an elder statesman of the Chief’s stature. In a statement issued in Lagos on Monday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said Chief Clark’s comment, which was widely reported by newspapers, is the latest in a string of statements by President Jonathan’s supporters that are overheating the polity ahead of the 2015 general elections and are even threatening the peace and unity of the country. ”We have waited for several days to give Chief Clark the opportunity to deny making such a fallacious statement, but he has not done so, which means he was not misquoted and that he indeed meant what he said. ”It is time for the President himself to call his supporters to order for the sake of the peace and unity of our dear nation. They ha...

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. Poor Learing Structures: all I can say is how do you expect a student to learn well when he is thinking about his achin...
