Grace, Favour and Passion

I am a product of Grace, Gods grace! I look at my life, events and happenings surrounding me and my family all I can say, and keeping say is lord God almighty thank you for your mercies, your grace and your LOVE!. I always like to think of myself as not lucky, but favored, I don’t believe in that thing called luck, but I do believe that God can cause things to happen in ones favor, “ draw the lines so that it falls for you only in pleasant places” and that has been my lot,even though sometimes I fail to see and acknowledge that truth. We live in a world where, we celebrate and crave for a lot of crazy things, not just materials but also certain life styles. Every body rates you by what you wear, the kind of car you drive, whats the make or model of the phone you use, what part of town you leave the list goes on and on. These qualities and many more now becomes the typical yard sticks for anyone sadly including Christians to measure how much God has been good to us, or on the othe...

Kemi's Blog

What a day its been, feeling somewhat low, can’t really say what it is thats the problem, but I guess maybe my night was not so good. With the curfew and everything now in PHC , one learns to turn in early and end up waking up at about 2am just looking at the ceiling. That’s how my night was last night. The fun part of the day so far has been the chat I have been having with a chat with kemi, she obliged me when I buzzed her on the messenger, to ask questions about investing in mutual assurance funds, and we ended up chatting and then exchange blog addresses  I  think her blog is nice and she needs to do more posting, so I recommend you stop by @ http://www.kemireplenish.blogspot.com/ . Nice work kemi, keep up the good job, blog away!

Chaos in Port Harcourt

For 6 days now PHC is a war zone, people die everyday and the Nigeria military says “they won’t use excessive force;” to stop militant clashes in the city, oh my God what kind of a country are we living in. The reports are everywhere, masked men on bike, spring up from different parts of the city shooting, the report says its cult groups fighting each other, but what’s the reason for this fighting ? Early this morning at about 5 am I heard explosions, later  that morning I was trying to get out early to beat the 7am deadline for commencement of environmental clean up exercise and met a road block at the slaughter axis of town, evidently they were some shooting  there already . I had to change my mind and direction and  decided to go to the office, where it’s a lot safer , as I write am getting different and even freighting reports of happens in certain part of old port harcourt town. NNPC mage filling station attacked, the state radio station attacked, even tho...

Gulder Ultimate Search 4 (IV)!

Lately I have had to post on this site http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?topic=63677.msg1380460#msg1380460 Are people are so narrow minded or is it just me, all they care about is let the Gulder ultimate search show continue, for them nothing is wrong its just one death. This issue from the bigger perspective, it’s not just about the death of this young man or if NB plc should be dragged to court in a 100M law suit. Its about NB and other companies to become more responsive to the needs of Today’s Nigerian, I think a scholarship or some kind of youth development program will go a long way to achieve a far better thing for the common good of the Nigerian youths , than any”Ultimate” search would. Let jut imagine this guys death happened at a Youth career development program or some other kind of youth development boot camp being organized by NB plc, I for one wont be crying crucify NB, but as it stands now am one of the people shouting nail NB. I know they are in business to brew product...

TV survival show Gulder Ultimate search and the death

Anthony Ogadje, 25 a ,young man, in his prime dies, now how real can reality get. Gulder Ultimate Search People keep asking, where was every one when this young man was drowning? Well if you are a swimmer, you will know one thing, it takes very good skills as a swimmer to save a man drowning, and if you have seen the young man in question he is quite muscular, saving him might have gotten his rescuer drowned too if such a person is not an expert swimmer, so the questions I Put to Nigeria Brewery Plc, is this, where they qualified life guards on site? If yes what did he or they do? I believe before the Young man went into the water maybe he could swim, even a swimmer can drown, he might have had a muscle pull, severe cramps or some other attack ,also learning to swim in still waters like a swimming pool and then swimming in a waters with current is a different thing, one cant really say how this very unfortunate incident happened Nigeria is a country where, just because the law is just ...
