We want to use this medium to appreciate everyone that came to LTV 8 blue roof today for the supposedly meeting with Governor Ambode. Although we weren't able to meet the Governor, but I can categorically tell u guys that Npower has come to stay in Lagos permanently as opposed to a contradictory statement from some people that the program has been hijack or silently killed by some particular individuals.

Our focal person has also assured us that

Random Observations And Ramblings.

On Saturday night I was in a taxi on the streets of Lagos. I was heading to Adeniyi Jones from Jibowu. Somewhere around Ikeja, the cab driver spoke to me out of the blues. You see we had both been minding our businesses, him driving and me chatting with a baby. Then all of a sudden he says, "sister, you see that night club for there, girls they dance completely without any clothes.  Even their work is to take men up and down. Girls of these days done really go far finish. Omoo to-be." Me, I just said "eh" and kept my mouth shut biko. In my head, I was thinking "if only this man knows that I am m*ad like that. Abi is it because I managed to cover my body well this night". Lolzzzz!. The guy went on and on about how there are few responsible women and how no sensible man would marry these people. I just started laughing o. The man did not know that I was just calculating what will happen if I tell him to shut that mouth up. See, these people who go o

Do You Know Why Friends Are Important

Every day we get taught by life itself through those around us. These teachings, sometimes come at our own expense; we sacrifice. When someone you acknowledge a friend DENIES payment of a debt he owes you. If you're able to move on, you do if you want to reclaim your money legally, you do. But still harboring such person as a friend? That, what I wouldn't do at all. Humans differ, you may be able to, but I really can't. But if you decide you can still maintain the friendship, it's like a double-edged sword. He could mistake your endurance and perseverance for stupidity and foolishness. Hence, attempt to extort more from you. On the other hand, he might get bemused by your action(continuation of the friendship) and that could provoke positive change in him. It all boils down to our individual differences. And decision making, though this is why friends are important: a) Good friends can improve your mood. Spending time with positive friends can elevate your moo

The Relationship That Exists Between Friends

Discussing the relationship with a friend or friends as the case maybe. Some may say a friend is an associate who provides assistance. Or a person with whom one is vaguely acquainted. But, I would like to give it a more profound definition as; a person other than a family member, spouse, or #lover whose company one enjoys and towards whom one feels affection. But, we want to talk about the relationship that exists between friends. This relationship is called 'friendship'; which is said to be the condition of being friends or a relationship as friends. In the typical sequence of an individual's emotional development, friendships come after parental bonding and before pair bonding. In the intervening period between the end of early childhood and the onset of full adulthood, friendships are often the most important relationships in the emotional life of an adolescent and are often more intense than relationships later in life. It has been found that adolescents were

It's Always Been CHRISTIANS vs MUSLIMS

Why can't a two merit Muslims rule Nigeria and why can't a two merit Christians rule Nigeria? Must it alway be a Muslim or Christian or vice versa? Do you think the United in Front of America is a statue It's called the United States of America that is there is emphasizes on Unity that we lack in the part of the world? The issue with our country is we don't have the Nigerian goal, we only have regional/ ethnicity goals. That's why we find it hard moving forward today, recently some of us feel a shame to say I'm from Nigeria, even some will feel like explaining that I'm from Yoruba side or Nigeria or I'm an Igbo man. An American anywhere any day is an American you can hardly differentiate anywhere that is the fact. As of now, can you hear of a situation where you are searching for a federal job in America and they will ask you your state of origin? Honestly, we lack unity in this our country where there is no single love, there cannot be peace...

Nigerians Doesn't Know The distinguished between GIFT and BRIBE

Based on the above context...GIFT is whatever we give to someone to felicitate with her or him for a joyful action which befalls on her/him or even to encourage someone to keep on observing the ethics of her/is a profession. But my friend says the gift is something that is given to another person, can you imagine that? And bribe is money that is given in order to get something to do something... Lolz. That is while I said some N igerians doesn't know the reason of bribe and gift.  Let me break the meaning of BRIBE: bribe is whatever you give to someone who has favored you in one way or the other to gain something of personal use in order to gain more regards from such individual in future occurrences regardless the ethics of his/her profession. It's Always Been CHRISTIANS vs MUSLIMS  That is all bribes are gifts but not all gifts are bribes... Bribe goes with an expectation of a mutually understood kind gesture in return, but some gifts are purely altruistic, expectin

The ill-treatment Women Go Through In Nigeria

Today, Nigeria to survive as a woman is not an easy task at all here in this country, mostly men are seen as everything today. The ladies are treated with little or no respect this is why ill-treatment women go through here in Nigeria. Just because you are a lady, you are expected to do all chores in the house. No matter how stressful and difficult it may be. They accord the men so much love and respect to the extent that training a female one's is considered as a waste of money and resources. They practically believe that women's education ends in the kitchen. They never believe that women can contribute anything positive to the society, they limit women from taking parts in so many things. Which it so so unfair and unacceptable, they also think women can't actually achieve great things for them, the only thing they think you can get as a lady is just to get married and make babies. Am so sorry and ashamed at the same time to say this, in my country they see women as

The Essence of Valentine

You know on the 14 February of each year, the whole world in diaspora celebrates Valentine, but then again, a lot of young folks out there doesn't even know the true meaning of Valentine. Thereby, they celebrate it in a very wrong way, especially in the part of the world where I am from (Nigeria) people think that Valentine day is the day you go out and do some nasty things with your boyfriend or girlfriend, like having some kind of things that doesn't please God, taking too many drinks and so on. To them, they are really enjoying that what Valentine means to some people. A lot of young folks has grown with that low mentality that Valentine's day is actually a day you go out with that special person boy/girlfriend and start having fun to proved they are more stronger when it comes to Valentine's day. But am writing this piece today to educate the ignorant people out there. I want to correct that wrong impression and low mentality they have about Valentine. To be

Apologies That January 2017 Salaries Experienced Delay.

This post here is the summary of the Asset finance deal we have secured with BOI to assist them to obtain their devices soonest. Also happy to inform the house that the Steering Committee approved a Device Grant of N4,500 per month up to 20months for each beneficiary...as such ONLY those who select devices that are above this amount will there be additional deduction from their monthly stipend,,,, E.g. If I pick ABC device with a cost of N4,700 monthly deduction, then BOI will deduct additional N200 from their monthly N30,000 to cover the difference between the selected device and the Govt Device Grant of N4,500 BVN/ACCOUNT Problem: Nobody Will Be Denied Npower Alert Payment Issues About Npower Volunteers But if I select device XYZ with a cost of N4,000 monthly deduction, there would be ZERO (0) Charge to my N30,000 monthly stipend cause the Device Grant fully covers my deduction... So please FPs if you have collated the several requests for Redeployment into your state e.g.

The Prize of Arrogance

My story is about a young man named Charles, who was born into riches and affluence, as the only child of his parents, his parents made sure he lacks nothing, he never does anything for himself. Later the parents assigned servants that practically does everything him when he grew up to become a very lazy and mean young man, he is so proud and arrogant. Charles doesn't have any regard and respect for the poor, he also treats his servants like slaves and trash.

Apologies to the Northerners...

On Thursday last week, I discovered that one of the major differences between the southern states (especially southwest) and the Northern States is exposure to western education. The Northern States didn't allow missionaries into their terrain until Almagamation in 1914... Whereas the southerners especially south Westerners have been benefiting from western education since 1840... You can imagine the huge gap there. The major reason why the North is actually behind... If you think Education ain't powerful... Alagba/Alagbress try Ignorance. Kindly note that I have to know negative intention writing this piece... I only want you to pick one or two lessons from it. Thanks.
