Beating Covid-19 in Rivers State Nigeria.

Parts of Port Harcourt, in Rivers State Nigeria are already"enjoying" Total- Lockdown or  is it 24Hours Curfew,for over a week now - for the rest of  the good folks of Port Harcourt City and the  Obio-Apkor LGA's (Local Councils) about to join us on Thursday 7th May 2020- Welcome!

Guess it's not easy for everyone including the Government at this time, however we all need to now make this sacrifices now and stay at home to help contain the virus from spreading further and hopefully soon and gradually, life can start returning back to normal.



So am guessing you probably already stocking up on food stuffs, drinking water,etc  since the lockdown is not a definite one like those in Lagos & Abuja that's now just been eased,starting today. 4th May 2020.

Here's some heads-up, buy "Fuel" , whether its petrol,diesel,kerosene or what ever your private power generation station aka Generator runs on, - top it up and ONLY! if you can safely store,then you probably should get enough to last you another week,if you can't safely store,just top up your electric Generator,and hope for the best.

(Warning do not store flammable liquids unsafely)



Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company (PHED) just might surprise you seriously,if they are not already surprising you..

PHED  has been acting crazy before a Lock-down was imposed on our part of the city,so one would expect since we trapped in 24/7, they should at least not make the lock down any more unpleasant with too many frequent &long power outages.

No PHED, they have gone from crazy  to full Craze! 🥴 now that they know we are on a 24hours lockdown.

Anyway just "be Prepared" it might be just 3days lockdown or a 3weeks lockdown who knows, it's not fun trying to sweet talk police & army men at different roadblocks, just because you need to go out and buy a basic necessity like fuel.

#LockdownMusings.

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...

2025 into 2026

Its that day of the year.  It’s 2025, December 31st. And as has been my private tradition for the last 19 years, now that’s a really long time. I make this post on the last day of the year to Reflects and Outlooks It’s private because I share it only on this blog and nowhere else. My posting on this blog has almost ceased. Not because I don’t write, but because I barely remember to post here when I do find the time to write. Despite this, I never forget this tradition on my Blogspot. Interestingly, since my last post here on December 31st, 2024, this is my first time back. I re-read my last post for December 31st, 2024, into the year 2025, which ends in less than five hours from now. Looking Back at 2025 How was 2025? Did it pan out the way my outlook projected? I would say it did, largely. But above all, and most importantly, I saw God’s goodness. 2025 was a year of many changes. First, I left paid employment. It was quick, but the decision was well thought out. ...
