Wisdom From The Street!

I found out that our Leaders has decided to play and sing thesame song to us from year to year while we the citizens keep Dancing thesame style to their songs and rythm, this keeps me wondering if the problem lies with the Barber or with the Clipper.

A world is enough for the wise!

CBN AND PETROLEUM SUBSIDY! - BY: LES LEBA

The issue of the removal of petrol subsidy is one area that has exposed our government’s characteristic indecision and prevarication. On the one hand, government’s claim to subsidy values of over N600bn per annum is considered outrageous and unsustainable as this expenses subhead alone usually exceeds the consolidated capital votes for health, education and transportation each year. Meanwhile, Nigerians continue to bemoan the huge infrastructural deficits in these critical areas of social… Continue

A Good Nigeria Masterweb Is The Key To Online Success

Do you know that most Nigeria master web can only design websites that looks attractive but cannot be found by the search engines?

So most Nigerians having websites don’t get returns on what they invest designing their website? If you doubt me ask your friend that owns a website.

Yes, the site will speak about their products and services but no visitors or any sign that they will make any money from it.

They do not have the experience of using keywords which is… Continue

As We Sit Back And Watch Abia State Go To Ruins

This state was once called God’s own state. I state “was once called” because I have a strong feeling of it becoming an offence against God to associate Him with this State because of how much it has been bastardized by its government in the last decade. Like the cemetery Eastside High School was built upon, the school was called GHOSTS. Like the people who have misruled Abia State in the last decade or so, Abia state represents the modern day “A Town Called Bastard”. Everything in Abia… Continue

What happened to the Nigerian revolution?

I question whether the necessary psychological conditions exist for us to address Nigeria’s problems or to implement the necessary solutions to them.

For instance, when the…
