February 14 2015: Nigeria decides. This year election poll in Nigeria is scheduled on Valentine’s day, a day celebrated by the world for love. How much love do you have for Nigeria? #8 days countdown to decide let’s embrace peace. Voting is not fighting!!!!! We need love!!! Say NO to violence!! Personally am not campaigning for any candidate. My stance is let the 'best' person emerge and whoever that is, I will support. Yes, because I don't have any other place I can call home expect Nigeria. At this age and time as a nation, we can't afford to be war refugees, separated from loved ones, loss of lives and properties with all the hellish acts of war like rape, extreme health disorders and diseases. Considering our population, no country will readily accept us as refugees. Am yet to figure that out. The peace of this nation is my peace. Yes, there's corruption, poor infrastructure, unemployed and underemployed youths. But can we pr

February, On the Blog

Welcome to the month of February. Am so excited for this month because it's the shortest month of the year, in about 26 days, February 2015 will be history. Also I love this month because it's a month the world celebrates love on Valentine’s Day (February 14). I love loving!!!!! Who doesn't like, being accepted, appreciated and cared for??? This month, after my first experience on the blog, I decided to switch things up. Am stepping up .... I will be blogging at least twice a week. Also I decided to drop the bold letters and 'unbold' even though I feel the bold is more legible. But in order to spice up a little, am 'unbolding'. Hope you don't mind. I dropped the 'captcha' feature to make commenting more fun. Am so thankful for those who take time to read the blog. I know life is busy , for you to read the blog means a lot. Remember it's about you and me doing great things. What are your expectations for Febr

Hard work vs. 'Smart' work

Counting down to the end of January. It’s been an awesome one month ride!! Fresh start , getting it right, character development , identifying talents and learning skills. This is the last week of January but not the last of me. One important character of winners is persistence, they keep pressing, no quitting till they hit the mark. Hard work is persistence; it’s hard to beat a person who never gives up. I will keep, keeping on, no dulling, I can do all things. I will work smart too, meaning: I will put my mind to it; I will make sure my presentation is appealing. I will pay attention to details, no room for 'cut and join' or shabbiness. A man of excellence stands out and will always keep ahead of peers. Hard work is the first step for smart work because hard work gives the experience which enables us to think smartly on the easiest way to solve the problem. With hard work and smart work, I will achieve my New Year resolution. Let’s share views, please drop

I have got Talent, My Skill

There some things that happen in life, when you seat back to reflect on them, you will discover that there's a reason why it happened and that all things work together for good. I remember growing up, I was never good in Mathematics or calculation even up till now, why bother with calculations when I can punch calculator 'pun pun' and get my answer. But don't try me with English Language and Reading. I like writing a lot. My writing is a natural ability though I didn't know; all I knew was that, am good in English, Government and other Arts subjects but never Math and Calculation. God is gracious that He created us with talents. Your talent is those abilities that come natural to you. They're usually in 'raw material form' just like crude oil, they need to be tapped, refined, polished ,packaged to get a finished, consumable product like petrol. It's good you discover your talent because talents are pointers to your destiny. While yo

What is it about character?

Beautiful Sunday morning with chills from the cold harmattan wind. I woke up; my mind went to the post on My New Year Resolution#FreshStart. My honest desire is that the concerns of my heart be turned to testimony. Who doesn't want that! Fast-forwarding to the future, I started imagining how it would be like when I get my results. I felt a smile spread across my face, anyone that saw me in that mood will be wondering what in the world I was thinking of, that's making me to smile to myself. Words can’t be enough to express my feelings at that moment, as I savored my imaginary world. Reality check: No matter how sweet my day dream is, nothing good comes easy. There’s a price to pay for success. I have my goals 'penned' down but what must I do to achieve them, what are those things I did in the past that didn't work for me? What are those that worked?? This is a fresh start; I can't continue in my old ways and expect good. At least I have thi
