Driving Alive

Many years ago while in secondary school , I read a pamphlet on Defensive Drive, and one of the lines that I can still remember till this day is that " in driving 🚦 a vehicle 🚖, you the driver has to compensate for the mistakes/errors for pedestrians, the bad driving of motorcyclist, and even other car road users. 

Be able to anticipate their mistakes or bad judgment before it happens and avoid them safely if possible. 


Well, life has taught me, that this rule sort of works in dealing with people also. Life is all about relationships, you can't do life, without people, and I mean the good, the bad and the downright nasty people. 

Learning to love & live with people of all types and kinds is like learning to drive defensively - you don't crash an "idiot" driver just to make a or prove a point, when they cut you off on the road 🔼, you protect yourself, and protect other people even the crazy ones who careless about you and trust me when I say these days you would easily  find more "crazy" then "good". 

So I share these wise counsel I found .

Be Good" only don't be stupid 
Be Considerate" but don't lose yourself 
Be Happy " for you & for others 
Be Fresh" because everyday at life, is a blessing 
Be Phenomenal " why? cause only one you, would walk this earth for all of eternity
Be spiritual " for what's the container without the content?
Be Childlike , not childish 
Be Funny , find fun, laughter , that would do your heart some good every now and when you can.

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...

Grateful Reflections

( With Dr Bola Afolabi, Current CIPS President) On the 28 February 2006, I started a tread called Logistics/Supply Chain Management on one of the most popular webforum in Nigeria called Nairaland. Follow link to view postings on this tread http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-7497.0.html My aim basically was to use the opportunity an online forum can offer, to interact, share and gain ideas, information,network and generally increase awareness of the Procurement, Logistics and Supply chain management profession. This act of sharing my passion for the profession online has over the years sparked off series of positive and constructive events in my career quest, some of which I have reflected upon in the text below. Although my initial undergraduate study and immediate post study working experience were all related to engineering, I soon fall in love with the logistics and SCM profession when in March of 2005 I gained my 1st substantive Job with Integrated Logistics services Nig...
