HAPPINESS = HEALTH, FRIENDS AND MONEY

Health that I agree, but friends, or more like good friends or generally good people. That's the tricky part- truth be told, good friends, good people are just as scarce as good money - both in short supply - but who says we can't have good health, find good friends and make good money?

That's what I call "a part of the #blessings"

So In this season ⛄ when most would rather take or receive, or request. I learned a valuable lesson, I have just been gifted a surprise 10K, and I have never appreciated a kind gift like this in recent times. Not cause am broke or cause it was gifted in $ or £ or € but still in good old Nigerian naira.

I am truly appreciative because it's Christmas and while some looked towards me to give and am extremely thankful I can even be counted worthy enough to give. This gentleman who gifted me 10K, on the other hand, thought he should be the one giving and guess what he is a Moslem, not Christian.

So to Mr. Isah Abubakar - many, many thanks for your thoughtfulness even in a season like this, indeed it's the little things that really count.

You're Appreciated

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...
