<![endif]-->For the first time in the history of social media
participation in Nigeria, an online townhall meeting was convened yesterday 2<sup>nd</sup>
April 2016 on facebook in what most have termed a peaceful online "National Conference".<br />
<br />
This noble initiative was organized by Emeka Oparah, a
Public Relations Expert and Airtel Nigeria’s Vice President, Corporate Communications
& CSR. What sets this epoch making event apart is the fact that it
was a convergence of both hailers, wailers and neutrals of the Buhari led
administration who for once decided to sheath their swords and peacefully share
their concerns, fears and opinions about the current government and also made suggestions
as to strategies the government can adopt to create a better Nigeria.<br />

also designed to review President Buhari's leadership one year after he won a
hard-fought electoral contest against incumbent, Goodluck Jonathan,
#PMBIghotago will herald a floodgate of similar town halls in the future with a

The townhall meeting was spearheaded with the hashtag
#PMBIghotago which in Igbo translates to #PMBDoYouUnderstand". It is a
question which seeks to know whether you understand the point the person
speaking to you is making. Hopefully every opinion shared will filter back to
the right quarters and just as the hastag suggests, the President and his
Cabinet would read and understand</div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></b>I remember way back in 2001 when I was gearing to start my
final year project, prior to that time I had heard stories of how most students
would take the easy way out by lifting projects written by old students who had
graduated decades ago so as to avoid the tons of research it would take to
write a fresh one and I wasn’t ready to bother writing anything when I could
just follow others and take the easy way out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That’s how I found myself leafing through old projects at
the school library trying to find a topic worth dubbing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>The rule was to submit three topics from
which one would be approved by my supervisor, then I struck gold when I
stumbled on “Inheritance In Igboland” and just to spice things up, I left school
and travelled all the way to University of Uyo to get two extra topics to make
up my list for which I had to part with N1000 with the promise of paying an
additional N5000 for the whole work if per chance<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>any of them was approved (I was such a Mugu
back then).</div>

Fast forward back to school, you can imagine my
disappointment when all three topics were rejected, I can’t remember what the
problem was with the UniUyo topics but I was specifically told that the “Inheritance
In Igboland” was too broad and I may not have ample time to do justice to it. What
options was I left with? That’s how yours sincerely was left with no other
option than to sit her ass down and write a brand new project topic which had
never been written in the department before.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
After much discussions and with the help of my Supervisor
who was a White lady, Irish I believe, I came up with <b>“Inheritance Rights Widows”</b>
and ofcourse I used my hometown <b>Abiriba as a casestudy</b>. Thus started my journey
and discovery of the world of widowhood, the incessant and hectic trips to my
hometown, getting to meet the widows, women and heads of women groups. Learning
about my history and cultural trends, the matrilineal structure and its effects
on widowhood. Getting to interpret my questionnaire in my dialect so they could
understand and transcribe<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>their
responses back to English just to make my study as empirical as possible.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My major focus ofcourse was tracking the distinguishing
factors of <b>Age, Ethnicity, Economic and Child bearing Capability </b>and the roles
they play in a widow’s ability to inherit from her husband. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
According to my findings:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>AGE:</b> A widow’s age does not play a role in inheritance.
Women generally do not inherit in Abiriba, a widow is expected to fend for
herself at the demise of her husband therefore a younger widow has an advantage
of meeting her needs by falling back on a job or skill set or even remarrying
while a much older woman has no chances or remarrying and may be too old to
engage in economic endeavours. Two options open to her are either relying on
her children or her family and siblings if she has no children.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Ethnicity:</b> <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Based on
the matrilineal structure of the Abiriba people, A non- Abiriba <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>woman who is married in Abiriba is regarded as
not just a man’s wife but also his relative, therefore she becomes part of her
husband’s kith and kin and is expected to partake in the inheritance process at
the demise of her husband over the Abiriba woman but truth be told when push
comes to shove, she is told she is “Onye Mba ” (Outsider) and most times is
disinherited. It should be noted that in some cases where a man’s family has
some level of conscience, The “ outsider’s” children are given preference unlike
an Abiriba woman’s children.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Economic Capability:</b> A widow who is financially stable and
capable of meeting her needs and that of her children do not feel the brunt of
disinheritance unlike her counterpart who has nothing going for her . Being
financially capable though does not make the brunt of disinheritance easier to
bear.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Childbearing Capability:</b> Being able to have a child in
marriage has little or no significance in inheritance. Just like previous
factors, the widow has nothing to gain, in most cases one would expect a
childless widow to be shown the door at the demise of her husband but she is
left to live peacefully except in cases where she may be sent packing if it was
noted she was never at peace with her husband and her inlaws prior to his
death.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">The Role Of The “ADANNEs”
In Marriage and Inheritance</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The ADANNEs are usually a man’s female siblings and
sometimes female cousins. They wield a lot of influence on a man’s decisions in
a bid to safeguard their interests because based on the matrilineal structure <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>of the Abiriba people, they, combined with
their males are the rightful heirs to a man’s estate. They would never blink at
making a woman uncomfortable in her matrimonial home just to protect their
interests.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My findings were heartbreaking to say the least but one
thing I took away from that experience was that women are the beginning and the
end of their problems. How you may ask?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A typical Abiriba woman is born into the knowledge to never
expect to inherit therefore she must strive towards being independent, strong
and able to withstand any adversity, at worst fall back on her own family. The
day widows would stop being disinherited would be the day women decide to speak
up collectively.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is worthy of note that over the past decade, there is an
emerging crop of men who are educated and are aware of the significance of leaving
behind a protected estate for their widows and children in form of IRONCLAD WILLS
which relatives would not be able to contest.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In summary, in as much as a culture portrays a people’s way
of life which must be adhered to at all times, same time every culture is
subject to change and is being eroded on a daily basis, nothing is ever cast in
stone. I believe some day we’ll get to that level where a widow would be able
to reap from the labour she toiled so hard with her spouse, till then arm your
selves through education, jobs, and skill sets. </div>

<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">When you were growing up, your parents didn't have house helps.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You and your siblings did the whole chores.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It was more tedious then, than now.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Waking up as early as <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_928939398" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">4:00 am</span></span> to the farm, fetching the first set of water from the stream for drinking, getting the grass for the Animals, etc...</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">It was hard, but it shaped you to face challenges, made you industrious, and strong...</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here we are in the 21st Century?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We don't want our kids to go through some of pains and stress we went through Why exactly?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We are so quick to employ house helps.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Pay them and also abuse them for not completing a task.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We become slave masters to these house helps.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Forgetting that they are humans and that they are someone Else's child.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Just because we "Pay Them" Really?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Let's talk..</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What exactly do your grown up kids do at home?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Eat , play, watch TV, play games, and sleep?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Basically that's what most kids do daily.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Its a routine. We employ House helps to do the cleaning, washing, cooking, errands, and all sorts. Only one person!!!!!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We then brag, I pay her/him.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">How much? 20, 30,40 thousand naira?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">"And what do your kids do exactly?"</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We are raising a generation of intelligent but lazy,cocky and mannerless kids.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Wheeeeew!</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Yes that's the blunt fact. They do nothing but books.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">They don't wash even their school uniforms, talk more of their clothes.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">But you did as a kid back then.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You
wore "wash and wear" to school, you ironed your clothes with charcoal
iron, you washed your socks , you did your assignment, you went to
the farm, you helped your mum in the cooking, you swept the house and
compound, weeded unnecessary grass around your home.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And you were at top your class and was very brilliant.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You were very strong and agile.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So What's the point exactly in exempting our kids from chores?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Now it's even very easy.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">They don't need to fetch water, there is water in the tap.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">They don't need to scrub the floor with hard brush kneeling (you did that), there is mop buckets and sticks.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">They don't need to wash hard and long, there is washing machine..</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Etc.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So what exactly do your kids do?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: 'Courier New'; font-size: medium; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">A Friend once wrote...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Pay your kids to do the house chores instead, than making them lazy.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Let them earn.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Even morals and manners have gone to the wind?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My younger ones do house chores, they don't get paid.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">They can mop the floor, wash their clothes and plates.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And guess what, they are very intelligent.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If you have the impression that house chores make them lose focus from their academics then I'm sorry you're wrong.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You succeeded back then, even under harsh conditions , why can't they?</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Assign each of them, a particular chore.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Let them do it, encourage them, cheer them up.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: black; font-family: "courier new"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Pay them, let them start earning, you ain't only teaching them, but imbibing a culture that would help them.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Let them understand what it means to work and get paid.</span></div>

As it stands today, PMS is going for N500-N800 a litre depending on your location, personally i bought 4 litres for N2000 yesterday and i'm not sure i'll be buying more anytime soon because i plan to use a litre a day.<br />
<br />
I have read so many variations on why we are in this mess and believe me i do not know what to believe again. Let's look at it from a lay man's angle;<br />
<br />
Why is there no fuel?<br />
Who is to blame?<br />
What can be done to rectify this? <br />

Often times we hear men insisting a woman isn't the sole victim in domestic violence, that a lot of men are abused mentally and physically in their homes. How true is this assertion? What's the scenario like? Because i sure can't picture one.<br />

A social experiment was carried out in London by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/disturbreality/videos/vb.121420231235396/842091835834895/?type=2&theater" target="_blank"><b>Disturb Reality</b></a> which was aimed at gauging public reactions towards violence towards each gender. I still can't picture this happening in Nigeria, can you?<br />

<br />
I was quite astonished when the man's experiment played out, why do you think people reacted differently as against the woman's own?<br />

the late 70s especially 1979, stories and antics of political parties in the Second
Republic, Parties like NPN, NPP and UPN, how they jostled, campaigned and won
their turfs. I was always fascinated and would often wonder what It would have
been like witness all that.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fast forward to 2015, today I am excited and privileged to
have witnessed a semblance of all that and more in the just concluded
Presidential Elections, it wasn’t easy, we jostled in place behind our Principals,
we campaigned and quarreled with friends, family and acquaintances just to prove
and give meaning to where we stood. </div>

It’s been exhilarating and nightmarish with its attendant highs and lows and
at the end of the day we have a winner from a battle well fought, I believe every
one of us has learnt something, most importantly the power of our collective
effort and I pray we utilitize this singular strength to its full potential.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A precedent has been set, we now have faith in our collective
strength in the knowledge that we can bring a government to its knees but at
the same time, I believe we also have a collective responsibility to help heal
wounds and calm frayed nerves.<br />
<br />
Change can be difficult, but Oftentimes, it is for the best. Just as the centre is working out what they consider best for us, we also owe it to ourselves to make necessary personal adjustments, it starts from within. </div>

It’s been a journey to remember, one none of us would forget
in a hurry. Like my mum, I too have armed myself with anecdotes and I look forward
to sharing them with my children in the nearest future.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
By 7.30pm, when I’m sure it’s fully dark, I will as usual
push my reading table to the balcony where I’ll sit quietly and write
tomorrow’s blog post while enjoying the sweet, cool breeze, meanwhile my
charged up batteries are already running low. Once done, I type my notes then
watch a little movie on the laptop or do whatever else takes my fancy and by
10-11pm with all batteries spent, I’ll have to go plug my phones and power-bank
at my neighbour’s place downstairs to be retrieved in the morning and as usual,
the cycle resumes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The sorry part of this narrative is that I’m no different
from the typical Nigerian out there; there are some who are not as “lucky” as I
am to have up to 8-9 hours of light a day, lucky in the sense that I’m having
this much light because PHCN<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>will
usually do this trick once it’s the end of the month and they are about to send
out bills.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
However ,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>what binds
us together is not just the lack of electricity but also the ingenious ways
we’ve devised to cope with the situation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>What are these ingenuous ways one may ask? The usual suspects of course
being generators, tin lamps made with used beverage tins usually used in the
night markets, candles and kerosene lanterns, the last two of-course are slowly
becoming extinct thanks to China’s rechargeable lamps. Most popular and
inexpensive option still remains sitting out to gist with family and neighbours
till you’re ready to retire for the night.</div>

Apart from these, there is the emergence of Inverters<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>which gives a semblance of electricity

economic implications of this option knowing it doesn’t come easy financially,
how many of us can in actual sense afford it? if you manage to scratch up funds
and buy one, owning one itself comes with a whole set of challenges, from
batteries with short lifespan and the not so small amount it would need to
replace the batteries should it kaput to the fact that you would still need
some source of power be it generator or PHCN to charge it should you not have
light for a long stretch of time. </div>

sitting uncomfortable in the rickety Molue bus, heading home after church.
Tired, hungry and sweaty, I’d give anything right now for a cold bath then
lounge in bed with some soothing music I thought to myself. Suddenly a female voice
behind disrupts my reverie, “Praise the Lord”!, the voice said in a raised
tone, while some responded, others like me ignored her: I look back and sitting
behind me is a dark skinned, ample sized woman in her 40s, garbed in grey
clothes, first impression was that she was from one those churches with an iron
clad dogma and I wasn’t wrong.</span></div>

got annoyed, doesn’t she realise most of us are coming back from church? What
is she going to say that I didn’t hear in church today? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some people just know how to be a nuisance, I
raged inwardly. I remembered how my dad while I growing up used to rationalize
why he never went to church, “ I don’t need to go to church every Sunday
because whatever the pastor says today, he will surely repeat it the next Sunday,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and I know I’m not deaf. I’ve mastered the 10
commandments and I plan to adhere to them so no need asking me to go back to
church next week”. I remembered him saying those words with a nostalgic smile
hovering on my lips.</span></div>

they had a meeting around October 2014 here in Nigeria and are working

unaware of what is happening, their bodies are being used by witches and

my mind wandered<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>wondering<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>at what point it becomes obvious that a
Christian has crossed the line from being a mere believer to a fanatic? Or should
I call it lunacy? Are there tell-tale signs that we tend to overlook? Is it
possible to bring them back on course? Does fanaticism have anything to do with
one’s economic level ?</span></div>

The old lady who owned him had just come back from Afia Amamba which was a mini market at Amamba square and Azuanughuka stole the dried Abasa fish she had earlier bought to prepare Ofo Abachi (A native Soup).<br />
<br />
I can still hear her voice echoing all over the compound, asking the dog to return her fish which he readily dropped near my granny’s waste bin.
In recent times, I have heard people say that all dogs go to heaven, probably because dogs aren’t expected to commit sins but i’m very sure that dogs who bark at people and chase them around unnecessarily without being provoked and the likes of Azuanughuka are just as guilty as some of us.<br />

Many people cling to the inner work of building tolerance and acceptance when the real inner work they need for growth is in the realm of courage and the proper exercise of power. It often takes more inner work to quit a negative situation than it does to tolerate it. So don’t assume that inner development is solely about love and peace and harmony. Inner development also includes the courage to stand up for yourself and claim the life you deserve.</div>

In this period of political upheaval as being witnessed in the land, I have resolved to watch this coming election with some sense of detachment for a reason and act in the next season. Looking at the exuberations of the parties and individuals involved, there is nothing to be excited about except for the deep lessons it offers to be learnt and the innovative ideas to posit. I may not be voting due to my possession of the temporary voters card and the 'umpire's' insistence of using card readers, of this i have no qualms and only trust that the process be made transparent, efficient and smooth to enable as many to participate. My thoughts being so simple bothered on a couple of factors but they have since evolved. If I would eventually vote i.e if my PVC arrives before then, till it does I'd cross my fingers and keep taking notes in my head. </div>

The mood of the country is depressed and the citizens lack motivation. Our political leaders remain uninspiring with faded charisma to hold office and lead the people. They inspire no confidence in anybody and the one privileged to be head in their domains are surrounded by really comical folks, who have little understanding of how to appear sober, temperate and or charismatic. Nobody appears to be taking responsibility for the drifting nature of the ship of the state, which is glaringly on course to hit a reef any time from now even as it is buffeted by pirate ships and dangerous waves. </div>

The organizing body - INEC, that same one, that has not well-managed to register all eligible citizens and issue out the required tools of voting - PVC, has already disenfranchised millions of eligible voters and shown a sad inability to conduct the most basic of tasks assigned to it. It is the same institution peopled by the same Nigerians, corrupt and selfish, same as you and I, that will be guarded by the same police and other armed forces and paramilitary, that will be under the same IGP and defence chiefs, that will answer to the same president that will now conduct an election, that will announce a result, pronouncing defeat for the incumbent president of this atrocious country in some days time.</div>

The opposition has sparked but has failed to kindle the fire of the Nigerian spirit (popular revolt) that chased out IBB, but was ultimately aborted. Their quest for the presidency is based on an illusory “change” being sold to the Nigerian people, whom they have assumed will endure regardless of whichever one of them “wins the election”. The illusion of change is being marshalled using the instrumentality of the social media and the Internet. Facile theses are piled on top of each other and silly attempts are made to distinguish between the sets of thieves who have held our country hostage for these years. Men who until recently were sworn enemies, have become compatriots overnight and strange bedfellows have emerged. </div>

The problem will not be solved by a mere change of personnel, it is the system itself that requires reformation, and the nation itself that has to be redefined with the rights of its citizens clearly delineated and held sacrosant. In 1992, MKO tapped into a national desire for change. He energized a movement that became larger than him. He became the symbol of a young generation of Nigerians, I may not have voted in that election ever witnessed in the history of this potentially great nation, but i witnessed there was no war in any of its territories and there was not any part of its territory ceded to a terrorist.</div>

The army of the keyboard warriors of which most have no voter’s cards with which to vote are based in the diaspora. The ones who have, the majority will walk away once the incumbent's goons execute his agenda. With the conducive atmosphere of the yonder and ensconced in the uncomfortable comfort of exile and yearning for the best for their motherland behind and preaching ideals of western capitalist and socialist ideologies. Our collective national penchant for talking about revolution whilst outsourcing the sacrifices required has led us into a polity devoid of choice...the present helpless state we find ourselves.</div>

How come nobody is asking the pertinent questions and shouting directions? What happened to seal the lips of those who used to enquire? Who is watching the watchmen? What kind of foundation are we laying for the coming generations? What has made it possible for ordinarily intelligent men and women to become imbecilic in their intellectual capacities? </div>

How did we end up in this sorry place, where state failure has become a real possibility in our own lifetime? Yet, our consciences are an open wound, that only the truth, reality and its acceptance can heal. Assuming by some miracle, the opposition wins, I doubt anything would change. The same corrupt governors and their godfathers would remain under the same corrupt system with the same corrupt legislators, judiciary, police and same castrated army.</div>

The Nigerian youth has been a resounding disappointment and its failure to rise above existential living, replacing intellectual curiosity with myopic outbursts of conviction. The very best amongst us have never aspired for political leadership, we are too good to be local government councilors, we are too big to run for the Houses of assemblies. </div>

Only 'thieves' go to the house of reps and the biggest crooks retire to our senate, it's not for those with anything to do. We have as a class failed ourselves, our children - born and unborn and generations yet to conceive. We have abandoned governance to the worst of us and we have watched them move from being councilors to assemblymen, we've seen men without desire for service appointed to high offices because we are all too less-concerned to serve and fight for the only nation we call fatherland. As they did between 1982-1999, they're coming for you again. Whichever of them wins...do not be caught in their battle.</div>

I implore Nigerians, please, do not die in their war. Resist all invitations to violence, if you have your voter’s card, please vote, but vote knowing that it probably would matter anyway even if it doesn't count, but it is not too late to prepare to use all the other elections across the country, as barometers for the performance of the incumbents and those coming in for the first time.</div>

Some betrayed the ideals of nationhood that were sown on that blessed day. From the minute of conception, they knew who was and who wasn’t the messiah.

beyond the obvious channels.</span><br />

<![endif]-->Over the past five years I’ve noticed there’s been an
increase in humanitarian works in Nigeria most especially on individual level
and sometimes as small groups, this is opposed to the charity organizational
style we grew up knowing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Individual
form leans heavily on a direct donor to recipient approach which ensures that
those in need get actual and immediate benefits devoid of structural lapses.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Charity or what some would call almsgiving is more or less a
generosity towards the needy, this is done strictly on humanitarian grounds and
in most cases one is compelled by one’s religion.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
For some months now, I’ve been pondering on the driving
force behind the new wave of humanitarian acts and all I could come up with was
“social media”.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
We all know that in recent times social media has become a
major force behind fads and trends where people enthusiastically join the
bandwagon in ventures that momentarily catch their fancy without most times
having a full understanding of these ventures thereby most often than not
misconstrue its objectives and significance.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What I find worrisome though is the nagging feeling that
humanitarian acts may have been adopted as a social media trend where
individuals and small groups now come to social media to plaster pictures of
people they helped and substances given. One would have thought that just like
prayer, acts of service should be confined between the giver and his God and
not for public consumption or am I wrong? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The bible says in Mathew 6:2-3,<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> “Thus when you give to the needy, sound no
trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets
that they may be praised by others. But when you give to the needy, do not let
your left hand know what your right hand is doing so that your giving may be in
secret and your father who sees in secret may reward you“. </b>Same is stated
in the Koran , check Surah Al-Baqara, verse 271, <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">“if you give alms openly, it is well, and if you hide it and give to
the poor, it is better for you and this will do away with some of your
misdeeds....”.</b></div>

Charity is laudable but it is also important to do it with

I bet you've seen a lot of Surulere picmixes flying around? For those who dont understand, Suru-Lere is a yoruba word which means "patience pays".<br />
<br />
whatever circumstance you find yourself in at any given time be sure that you'll metamorphose to that place you've always dreamt of or even better.<br />
<br />
I've seen a lot of versions but I thought of starting from the very beginning where my journey started.I've come a long way, from an ugly looking tadpole to a CrunchyApple and it can only get better.<br />

The Prime Minister of Malaysia, Najib Razak has been labelled brainless for allowing a witch door to help in the hunt for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
According to Ibrahim Mat Zin, a famous witch doctor who performed a prayer at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport with coconut and a magic stick. He says "The plane is still in the air or has crashed into the sea"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
PS: thought that was the general conclusion? was the coconut and magic stick necessary for that? And 5 days in the air? really?<br /><br />

And The Truth Is A Lot Of Us Are Like This.............Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10118096615085613793noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271918546193143884.post-76979515855552218372014-03-07T13:51:00.003+01:002014-03-07T21:35:08.066+01:00"The Second Death" By Kayode Sadiq<span style="font-size: small;">Sometimes when events happen in our lives we either take responsibility or attribute these occurrences to those close enough to inflict pain in our lives. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>The Second Death</b> is a short film made by our very own, Kayode Sadiq about how others' actions can ruin one's life forever. An orphan girl is psychologically and physically abused by her stepmother, watch how the line of destruction she orchestrated turned out.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">Would you entirely blame the step-mum for the unfolding events or would you blame the girl for not exploring the wide range of options one is usually faced with?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"> Kayode Sadiq is a young Nigerian film maker who just completed his film making course at the New York Film Academy, he might just be our very own Spike Lee.</span><br />

up, so I decided to run the business from home. I registered as a beauty
representative <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>with Tara and Zaron. I
started publicizing what I do via BBM & Facebook. Most of the jobs I did were
for free because I didn't have a shop but then I also needed people to know what i could do and that they could actually get the best professional cosmetics care in Portharcourt without having to source for same out of town. . Jeflops
Integrated Services is not only into makeup but also offers the best range of clothesline and by the special
grace of God we hope to add other businesses as time progresses. Locating a
place for the shop was the hardest. In Portharcourt, Rumuola & GRA seem
like the "happening" area/place for beauty businesses. So I decided to
locate the shop in an area where you can't find such business around, where I
can find my target customers <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and a place
that would not be difficult to locate."</blockquote>

people! Trust your weekend is unfolding as planned? Glad to be with you
once more today, and in my usual style of identifying ordinary
Nigerians who are carving a niche for themselves in their chosen
fields,Nigerians who have been able to identify and embrace their
strengths,today you'll get acquainted with someone who you would be
happy to identify with. How well do you know your movie stars outside
the obvious ones? You would agree with me that there are a lot of faces
people fail to recognize beyond the established ones. </span><br /><br />Which
faces would you be quick to identify with Nollywood in the next couple
of years? Today i bring to you a rising star who is gradually making a
name for himself in the industry. Trust CrunchyApple to stalk him for an
interview and i sure got lucky. Here's an excerpt from our chat. Enjoy. </span><br />

<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>How did you get involved in Acting?</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
Well, although I
have always had a passion for acting being that I had been active in different
drama groups both at school and in church way back, I would say that I got
involved in real acting as a career by chance, more or less.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>About two years ago, a long time friend of
mine who is a renowned Nolllywood actor and director was holding an audition in
Enugu for a movie he was about to shoot. I had gone to see him and on his
invitation, I sat with him at the panel as he conducted the audition. That
experience really stimulated my interest in acting. I asked him for a role in
that movie which he obliged me. I never really got to play that role as my work
at the time did not afford me the time. However, the seed of interest that was
sown in me by that interaction germinated and blossomed such that when I ran
into the Production Manager of that particular movie by another chance meeting
a few weeks later, he asked if I still wanted to act and I said yes. He told me
there was a role for me in an going production and within hours afterwards, I
was facing the camera for my very first Nollywood movie feature. It was just
one action scene and the director did not believe I was facing the camera for
the very first time. The title of that movie was “console my son”. It’s been
released a long time ago.</div>

long have you been an actor?</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
Like I already
indicated, I started acting on a skeletal basis a little over two years ago but
I got really serious last year: 2013. I featured in over twenty movie
productions in the course of 2013 alone.</div>

<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>Who/What
inspired you to become an actor?</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
I think my
passion for acting is my primary inspiration. As for who inspired me, I would
readily give that credit to Okechukwu Nwafor: the Production Manager I
mentioned earlier on who was directly instrumental to my getting my first ten
roles and still counting.</div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
I assume you are
referring to nollywood artistes. You see, it is very difficult to isolate any
one actor or actress as my favourite, truly, because there are many wonderfully
gifted artistes in nollywood like Funke Akindele, Mike Ezuruonye, Ini Edo,
Mercy Johnson, Yul Edochie and a massive host of others. Having said that
though, I think Mercy Johnson is a versatile and lavishly talented actress. The
same goes for Yul Edochie.<br />

the importance and the ability of being relaxed and confident on set plus the

the former.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Your choice of clothing and
cosmetics can highlight your sense of style, compliment your best features, and
keep you looking fresh and full of life. But sometimes these decisions can
backfire: an ill-fitting dress that stretches and sags in all the wrong places,
or a shade of makeup that accentuates fine lines and wrinkles. Women don't
always update their fashion and beauty routines as they get older,the
same products and pieces that once worked so well for them could suddenly give
away their real age-or worse, make them look even older than they really are.
Here are15 common beauty blunders, and anti-aging advice and how
to fix them. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Unless you're on an unlimited
budget, steer clear of fashions that seem very in-the-moment, you won't be able to wear
them for very long before they (and you) look dated and behind the times.
"Rather than invest in pieces that could stay overtime and still look trendy. Stick to
classic, sophisticated items that will stand the test of time,".
That doesn't mean you can't infuse some edgier styles into your wardrobe,
though. "Look to trends that are here to stay: leather, military, dark
florals, plaid, and slimmer cuts such as tailored pants and pencil
skirts." </span></div>

right. "Some are way too big and boxy; some are so small
you can barely button them-but they keep them, either because they spent a lot
of money on them or because they have sentimental value." Consider having
these pieces tailored, if possible, so you can continue to wear them with
confidence,Otherwise, give them out or sell them to those mallams that would give you a plastic bucket in exchange. </span></div>

with youth, and short styles-i.e. "mom haircuts"-with maturity.
"But as you get older and begin to lose fat in your face, really long,
straight hair can actually make you look more drawn,". Choosing a
cut with face-framing layers and lots of body, on the other hand, can help your
face appear rounder and more youthful. </span></div>

pull off, they tend to be less and less flattering on most women
as they age. "Our eyelashes thin out as we get older, and women sometimes
try to overcompensate for that with lots of black makeup," she says.
"All that does, though, is draw attention to the wrinkles around your
eyes." Instead of a black liner, choose a dark brown or grey, <b>and
remember that less is more</b>. <b>Skip liquid liners, too, which can be too heavy,
and opt for a soft, easy-to-apply pencil.</b>(I'm guilty of this)<b><br /></b></span></div>

sunscreen on your face every day, chances are you may be neglecting other parts
of your body. "Your hands, neck, and chest are also exposed to sun on a
daily basis, and women tend to forget about protecting them the same way they
do their face.These are the areas that can be a dead giveaway, even if
your face looks really youthful." <b>(In fact, a 2013 Australian study found
that women who used sunscreen on their hands every day showed no signs of aging
after four years.)</b> Along with a regular SPF, a daily moisturizer can also keep
skin looking and feeling smooth and baby soft. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The solution to fine lines isn't
always to cover them with loads of makeup, says Ping; in fact, if you use too
much foundation you'll risk it settling into those creases, only making them
more noticeable. "The key is to spot correct only where you need it, with
a liquid or cream foundation, concealer, or even just a tinted moisturizer."
(Powder-based formulas can cake in creases, she says, and they can make dry
skin-a common problem as you age-look flaky.) Also, be sure your foundation
matches your skin tone, which can also change as you get older. "A lot of
women use the same color forever, but you should really reevaluate every few
years to see if it's still the best fit." </span></div>

natural looking glow, applying bronzer to your hairline and
jawline, then rubbing just a tiny amount of cream blush (again, powder can flake
and settle into creases) into the apples of your cheeks. </span></div>

lip color can make you look older-but so can not enough, according to a 2013
study from Gettysburg University. When volunteers were asked to compare
pictures of human faces, they rated those with more facial contrast as looking
younger. Darker lips, eyes, and eyebrows seemed to make the most difference,
say the researchers, possibly because lips tend to get thinner and eyebrows
tend to turn gray as a person ages. A good makeup application will pump up a
person's natural contrast, darkening the eyes and lips (and filling
in thinned out eyebrows) without being too obvious or over-the-top. </span></div>

together is unflattering for all ages, and can add years to an otherwise
youthful appearance. "A great rule of thumb is that if you're
wearing a skinny silhouette on the bottom, choose a more forgiving, flowy piece
on top. Or flip it: If wearing a tighter top, add a looser, flared skirt or a
wide-leg pant to balance out the proportions." Not only does this strategy
let you show off your best assets, but it can also hide the trouble spots

fads that will come and go, curate your wardrobe to have a strong base of
classic colors like black, navy, gray, olive, camel, and white. "Use
accent colors-like red, purple, cobalt, and emerald-to fill it out and add a

poking, and prodding can not only damage the skin and it can cause
red, puffy eyes, as well-not a good look at any age. Always remove eye makeup
at the end of the day (sleeping in it can cause irritation and infection), but
use a gentle cleanser and a soft towel or cotton swab; avoid scrubbing too hard
or using a rough washcloth. </span></div>

Lovers and lovers to-be have been known to go the extra mile
to prove their feelings, its also a day to perfect your artful dodging skills
so the question remains, if you have a significant other, how far would you go
to make 14<sup>th</sup> February count? Should a special day be reserved for
expressions of love and affection? If you’re a certified player, what’s the
perfect excuse to keep that side chic/guy at bay?<br />
