Krunje!

To hold House on the Rock church, Port Harcourt (Heritage House) spelled bound, then you definitely must be a man of Kindred spirits with Pastor Lanre Oluseye of HOTR.

Mr. Fela Durotoye, Held the Heritage House, (House on the Rock, Port Harcourt) spell bound for the entire session of his sermon titled (Krunje!) Or (Expo!) in our local lingo. He talked about the Vision of the future Nigeria, God revealed to him and how in the course of time as events passed in Nigeria he wondered if he really heard God, but then again Confirmations came to him, from truly and tested men and women in the faith.

For me the message helped me pick a cue and edged me in a more defined way, on how to be the change that I desire to see in me and in our great country Nigeria. The Words! Where deep, passionate and true! It takes a large mind to comprehend.

Using the city of Dubai with its magnificent structures, plans and scenic landscape, as a projection for the future Nigeria in 2025 in terms of physical development may seem to many as wild, especially if you have been to the slumps in our major cites.

A few weeks ago I was in Lagos Nigeria, on a Bus from the main land to Victoria island , the lengthy 3rd main land bridge was undergoing maintenance and the bridge gets closed at certain hour of the day, 12.30pm I think, my bus didn’t make it before the closing time, so the driver had to take a detour to Ebute metta, the Traffic was more than chaotic. Despite the fact that I don’t know this area of Lagos very well I decided to come down from the bus and walk, possibly I will get a bike to take me to CMS on the island, but it took two hours for me to find my way out of that area, while I walked I looked at this area of Lagos and wondered how on earth can people live and do business in such a crazy crazy mad place, I wondered how can the dream of a Modern Nigeria come to pass if this is where we stand today, I taught of similar towns I have been to or lived in with crazy crazy mad places, Warri, Port Harcourt, Ibadan, Enugu,Aba, just to mention a few. It sure looks like this dream of Turning Nigeria into one of the most Developed economy and sort after region in the world by 2025 is quite a tall order, Taller than the tallest building in Dubia I will say.

The Good thing is that it’s possible, because God has a future for Nigeria and Nigerians are now rising up in prayers and in actions, the number might be few, the steps taken so far small, but this is one crusade that will not require the vast majority, at least at its initial stage, its will start like a express train and will definitely build up Momentum as the wheels and engine gets Oiled and fired up by Fela durotoye and the likes of him.

With men of great minds and vision like Fela Durotoye, speaking, I believe something is about to happen.

Its A Matter of Cash

On the 20th of Jan 2009, i watched on as million and millions of Americans all celebrated one thing HOPE!, and change that lies in horizon, and from my room I wondered will our home land Nigeria ever have something to celebrate about, even if its just change, a change in the right direction. Below is an article written in response to CNN's NIGER DELTA, Planet in Peril,  by a friend of mine,  Comfort Olubo Umaru  a lawyer based in Abuja Nigeria. IT’S A MATTER OF CASH. by  Comfort Olubo Umaru As an avid reader, a former resident of the area and concerned citizen, it would be remiss of me not to start any discussion on the Nigerian Niger Delta with one name. Kenule Saro Wiwa. As a child my favorite TV show was Bassey and Co. This was a screen adaptation of plays written by Ken Saro Wiwa. It was about a wise cracking young man called Bassey and his friend Alale and their varied antics. The show was all about their varied attempts to ev...

Black In The Oval Office, Africa Don't Celebrate Yet

Mr Obama proposes to invest $150bn in alternative fuel over the next 10 years, he said the US would not be held "hostage to dwindling resources, hostile regimes , and a warming planet”. He called for greater fuel efficiency and an "energy economy" aimed at creating millions of jobs for Americans. "We (the US Government )will commit ourselves to steady, focused, pragmatic pursuit of an America that is freed from our energy dependence, and empowered by a new energy economy that puts millions of our citizens to work". Read and read it well Nigerian government, policy makers and anyone who cares, the hand writing is on the wall, since successive government in Nigeria have only payed lip service to creating an economy for Nigeria that is diversified and not heavily reliant on oil, I guess this is a wakeup call. If the major buyer of your product say he see a future of less dependence on not just you as a supplier, but also on the product you sell in the ...

Power of Social Media

So we approaching the last weeks in July 2015, am setting up and trying to know what it feels like working from my new office space within the GRA ( government reserved area) of the city of Port Harcourt, Rivers State Nigeria. A key question for me is, how will I sort out my lunch daily? because it seems like getting lunch is going to be a challenge. As far as I know there are no eateries offering food delivery service in GRA Port Harcourt, unlike in Lagos my office is located in the hub of business Victoria island where its common place to find a range of eateries, pizza joint etc, all offering delivery services. Thank God for google I decided to do quick search online and voilĂ ,! I found Chicken Republic in Port Harcourt. They now offer delivery to some locations in the city and they cover the GRA where my office in Port Harcourt is located. I placed a call to what seems like a central line for all Chicken Republic orders, the customer service center staffs was nice and well...
