Public "lie" Servants




THE BIG QUESTION NIGERIANS MUST ASK?

Why Nigeria's public servant never tell Nigerians the simple truth? From the natural lairs  the politician,to even the security services, everyone now seems to lie, look you in the face and lie like hell, and dwell in mediocrity and eye service just  to show to Mr. President look "I am working" and thus your so called transformation agenda is changing lives of Nigerians... yet the reality is far,far different because they the highly place public office holders seem to be the once judging their own performance  :

It's almost a total risk, to take the word of the Nigerian Government as reliable,you do that at your peril

My comments here has nothing to do with the President of Nigeria aka GEJ, I am not anti or pro GEJ,so don't get it twisted pro GEJ supporters,I am pro Nigeria and my concern here is about the culture of lies and falsehood that's now being deep rooted in the Nigerian public life and system especially in government sector at Federal,State and Local Council level.

In a serious country somebody would have been relieved of their job just by the recent revelations that an ebola victim was not accounted for and he was able to travel "God knows how he traveled, and seek medical attention on his own terms outside the isolation centers set up , thus risking the lives of millions more Nigerians.

How can a colossal amount of almost 10 million dollars of Nigerian funds, be ferried in a private Jet out of Nigeria to South Africa and the explanation from government is : the government was so desperate to purchase arms to prosecute the war on terror in north eastern Nigeria, they had to do this.  Shocking! but if it looks like a lie,smells like a lie then it most probably be a lie.




 I may be critical despite all that the Government is doing,however I am critical because I believe anything worth doing must be done well, for any country enshrined in falsehood its only a matter of time the consequences of such a way of life may be disastrous .

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...

2023 into 2024 God's Goodness

2023 it is ending and Thank God, it's NOT the End. Am grateful for the year, goods immeasurable grace and mercies on me. Am trying to reminisce 2023 in my mind's eye as far back as I can possibly remember.  I started the year slowly focused and knowing the things I needed to get done at least for the first quarter. In hindsight now I can say it all worked out really well, at least until it all went crazy.  The national elections came, and I fought, I voted and hoped for a better government to take over at the national level, yet it was stolen right before our very eyes both at the state and national levels.  On a very deep level this crushed hope, that flicker of hope that Nigeria as a country would turn a corner for good this time. Unfortunately not only that the elections was  stolen but it was done in the most brazen, crude and evil manner.  Every institution of state was and is now captured by a thieving political establishment.  It's taken some time bu...

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 voilà,! 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...
