Subsidy Removal
The Nigerian Government is contemplating removing subsidy is a joke taken too far.
Presently the prices of goods and services are on the high side. The average Nigeria can't eat twice a day . The exchange rate of Dollar -Naira is nothing to write home about.
Then this government in his wisdom out of all policy to implement comes up with subsidy removal.
It's imperative to note before this present government came in to power. When former President Good luck Jonathan was in office removed subsidy there was mass protest among notable figures his the present commander-in-chief.
The Government plan to remove subsidy and plan to give five thousand monthly stipend to Nigerians to ease the hardship that will be imposed as a result of the subsidy removal.
I don't know why I feel this is calculated move by the government to toast and bribe the common man as election is fast approaching.
You all remember trader mini stopped when the election was over.
But come think of it, I hope this people knowing the implication of this removal.
When subsidy is removed the price of petrol might be around 340-380. When this is done, transport fares will be doubled, the market women will increase the prices of goods to accommodate increased fares, school fees will be increased and we are back to square one.
I hope Nigerians have gotten their PVC and younger ones have registered. Trust me if we don't boy right leaders this what will continue to happen.
Recently the government ban crypto-currency activities in the country but they don't know they can't ban what they don't understand.
The crypto industry has the capacity to pay Nigeria debts. With the way Nigeria keeps accumulating debts from China I hope we won't witness colonization again.
God bless Nigeria.
Ronaldo's move to United
I hear people saying Ronaldo coming to United was a mistake and it disrupted United flow, putting on the arguement that United was second last season.
Truth be told I wasn't a fan of Ronaldo coming back and I don't believe in players second coming but i believe if a coach doesn't know our to work with the players at his disposal then it says all about the deficiency of the manager.
Ronaldo is arguably the greatest players of all time currently bailing United week in week.
I dare say he was one of the reasons ole lasted than long.
People then to make reference to last season but are quick to forget the top teams were plague with injuries and particular played below par.
Preventing Snakes
lead image from Upsplash
The world woke up to the tragic news of Naval officer who was bitten by a snake in the toilet.
It was indeed a sad day for Nigeria losing such promising young officer to a death which could have been avoided amidst the war against terrorism.
I'm going to share ways snakes enter the toilets and ways they can be prevented so this sad thing doesn't occur again.
How snakes enter our toilets
Broken pipes: After years of use pipes used for plumbing works in the house might be broken, snakes can enter through this means.
Ventilation pipes: same as above.
Prevention
Installation of sieve along the sewer: This is why professional must be contacted for any building related works, The sieve has to be tight which makes it difficult for snakes to enter the toilet.
Repair of all broken pipes: periodic check must be done to be sure pipes ain't broken and if they are it should be fix
Fumigate your septic tanks: Must people don't pay attention to this, periodic fumigation is necessary.
Clear bushes around: Snakes love to hid in bushes, ensure you clear the your surroundings frequently.
Toilet lid Closed: Please ensure you close your toilet lid whenever you are done in the toilet.
Salt+kerosene: it's being said a combination of salt+kerosene prevent snakes from entering the house.
Theatre of Nightmares
Theatre of Nightmares
I stopped watching united live matches for health reasons 😪,Watching the highlights of the game against Liverpool nearly brought me to tears our favourite stadium THEATRE OF DREAMS turn into THEATRE OF NIGHTMARES.
I have always being a critic of ole from time I believe Manchester united lacks character, creativity, discipline teamwork and leadership( seems a lot ehn)😂😂.
The last time I watched Manchester united play was the opening game against Chelsea I think 3years ago, united won that game convincingly but I wasn’t impressed.
My opinion was that they won the game based on individual brilliance not the managers input, a lot of people called me naysayer then but up till now no identity.
I will always use pep for example all the teams he coached you will always see his ideology in the team( possession tiki-taka) and even when they lose you will not the coach was outsmarted which is not too bad because you can’t win all the time.
Squad Depth
Manchester united has a relatively good and decent squad depth but for the rigidity of the coach he can seems to get a working starting eleven. He his the
Play safe kind of coach and when clearly the players are not in form he sticks to playing them which in turns cost the team.
Teams like westham, leiceister are doing relatively with low budget and decent players with good managerial input.
Is ole time up united
after the abysmal performance yesterday ole ought to have been sacked but the Manchester united board knows best.
I will always defend his appointed has the caretaker gaffer and I believe he was what united needed at that time, to settle the rifts amongst players and you could see for a number of games the players played well( individual brilliance) .
I believe ole will do excellently well in a team where they are no pressure.
In a club like united, you are expected to win all time and the way and manner I equally important.
Rogers struggle at Liverpool, Moyes time at united was disastrous but they both doing relatively well at leicester and westham respectively.i believe ole should follow suit.
Was signing Ronaldo a mistake
I’m always of the opinon if you left a club as a legend why are you coming back?
But it is important to state that Ronaldo isn’t any random 36 year old football player but did ole really need him, was the signing force on him( that’s a question for another day.
But if you have arguably the greatest player of all time and you are still struggling then there is a problem.
United next few games are critical
I hope the next steps would have been taken.
To be honest I fear for my darling team.
Are you Insured
Every man wants to make good in life and probably live long to enjoy all that life has to offer, but it is rather painful that life happens.
Even at better climes where medical sciences have helped to improve the life expectancy of the people to an appreciable degree, fate till plays final arbiter.
But the irony however is that this uncertainty over man’s fatality I probably what an industry like the insurance companies worldwide, is the effective management of life assurance fund as investment strategy during economic recession.
Life insurance is necessary, it is important for human. Life insurance is a contract between an insured and insurer, where the insurer promises to pay a designated beneficiary a sum of money in exchange for a premium, upon death of the insured person depending on the contract, other events such as terminal illness or critical illness may also trigger payment.
In today’s business world, international experience has become critically important. Global trends have had an impact on the processes and outcomes of business fortunes even in developing countries and have caused industrial relation actors to think differently about their goals.
The current global economic crises has been interpreted in many ways, chief of which is that it signals the end of capitalism or free market economic doctrines.
Insurance is one of the most successful service industries that any string economies of the world used to achieve their spectacular development and greatness. By affording protection to life and property it bring security of person and property with accompanying peace of mind which promotes and encourages adventure and entrepreneurship.
The insurance sector has come long way across the globe. The number of insurance institutions has risen quickly.
Problems
Mismanagement of life assurance premium which lead to liquidation,
Inability to invest life assurance funds in varieties of security due to lack of experts
Ineffective investment management of life assuarance which affect expectations of the insuring public and the growth of the industry
incessant global economic recession : Covid
Myths about insurance
It's not for young people: life expectancy is dwindling daily you are doing your partner and family members good even you adopt a plan early.
Scam: some people believe that insurance companies aren't to be trusted. Why I may be agree that they might be some but you will agree with me there are reputable companies who has stood the test of time.
Do let me know your thoughts?
Your Mental Health
Your Mental health is important
Alot is happening in all-over the globe that messes with our health.
The truth is that alot of people are stressed.
Stressed from work related pressure, family, friends etc.
One out five people in the world are mental stressed.
The reality is that some don't even know about it.
Mental health includes our emotional, psychological and social well-being.
It affects how we think, feel and act.
It also helps determine how we handle stress relate to others and make choices. it is important at every stage of life.
Many factors contribute to mental health problems
Biological factors
Life experiences
Family history
It is important to note that mental health is more than just the absence of mental disorders or disabilities.
Causes of Mental health
Social status
Gender discrimination
Housing
Human rights violation
Education
Relationship
Social status
Typical implying finance one a man doesn't have financial resources he may think less of himself. Sucidal thoughts may rise.
Gender discrimination
It is any action that excludes or disadvantages people based on their gender.it fueled by sexism, which is prejudice based on sex or gender.
In most countries sexism devalues women and feminity and previleges men and masculinity.
Housing :
Neighborhood disarray: vandalism Security
Relationship: Many couples after separation often go into depression. After being together for so many years and suddenly turn strangers isn't fun at all. It funny how we go from being so close and turning into strangers. Definitely not everyone can cope.
Human Rights violation:
My country recently embarked on a protest to end police brutality, we lost some people due to the struggle and some who managed to survive have scars for the rest of the lifes.The emotional stress pele went through can't be overemphasize, some are currently in the hospital because of the struggle they believe in.
Education:
One in five students commit sucide yearly as a result of education related stress. It's quite shameful that even our basic schools aren't exempted. The government needs to review some of this curriculum.
Early signs
Pulling away from people and usual activities
Feeling numb
Severe mood swings
Thinking of harming oneself
Feeling hopeless
Eating and sleeping too much
Smoking and drinking more than usual
Hearing voices
Feeling usual forgetful.
Mental health care
Pls go and visit your doctor. Alot of people in Africa would rather go to their 'religious fathers'.. please it's wrong you may get worse.
My people perish because of lack of knowledge.
God can also use the doctors too.
Treatment of psychosis with antipsychotic medicines and psychological support.
Who gave the order?
Who ordered the shooting
Police brutality has been going on has from time memorial.
The unit has always been used for suppress people from fighting for their rights along side military.
Different administration has always different ways of inflicting pain on the masses.
When the movement started
Endsars gained prominence in 2017
A large protest took place and the government agreed to make changes.
I think they meant changing names We have being going back and forth for over three years still not changes
Finally last year the sorosoke generation were fed up with the nonsense the cabals having been doing for over 40years. It's important I let you know that we having be rule by the same political cabal for this long tragic I must say.
Our crimes
Making money legitimately in ways they couldn't understand insteading of asking questions including the youths in the government for the development of the country they gun us down.
An average youth in Nigeria would have been harassed and extorted by the police once in his life.
It's sad and pathetic.
Support
Thank God for twitter the #Endsars movement started on twitter with various celebrity jumping on it till it reach the international community with our favorite celebrities like Rihanna, Beyonce, john boyega helping to raise awareness all over the globe.
Special thanks should go femi falana(falz), aisha yesufu, Mc macaroni all a whole lots of unsung heroes who behind the scenes made sure the protest was peaceful until the government hijacked.
Divide and conquer rule
One tactics the government is good at.Knowing fully well hunger was in the land. She hired political thugs to hijacked the process so the military can intervene which gave birth to the various bloodshed witness that day.
The nation stood awake watching videos of various bloodsheds. Our mental health strained. Our hands were numb, we didn’t know what to do. Who do we run to when those meant to protect us are the ones ending our lives?. who do we call when the ones who we put in power are the ones tormenting us?.
Who ordered the killings
After the massacre had been done till date government is still denying no ammunition was fired despite the video evidence clearly stating otherwise.
Many has lost there loved ones, legs, source of income due to the evil done by the government
Gains of the protest
We can live together: we all shun ethnic, religious war among ourselves for the common goal.
We all respective each other views and consulted before making decisions
Accountability: the money donated was properly accounted for and everyone being happen.
Which shows that government isn't rocket science.
Get your PVC
Their Nigerians the death of all our heroes will have been in vain if at end will all have not gotten our PVC.
we have seen that if we are united we can force change to happen.
Very Soon they we soon come with
indomie they hoarded, garri milk with sugar.
Please don't vote and suffer.
To those who are being used as political thugs remember when they win elections, their family members all get juicy spots leaving you with ponmo.
GET YOUR PVC
We are at War
WE ARE AT WAR
Throughout history, religious war proved the most catastrophic. While one could tell when it began no one can tell when it will end.
Like the grave, it never says "enough" but keeps consuming everything in it's path.
Today the world is burning like an oven. A certain war is raging at a scale humanity has ever known.
We are face-up against terrorism occasioned by radical religious extremist all over the globe. This wickedness has confronted and brought the intelligence of military tactians and analyst of religious convictions an geopolitics and gun blood to still loom in the atmosphere polluting our land.
The resistance we face is of complex kind. Therefore securing conquest must be by a multi-complex and omni-force, superior to the resistance!.
That sovereignty is found no place else than in God.
The reasons our weapons are not made arsenals consisting of nuclear warheads and other such assault missiles is because the enemy is not a human being, but w wicked spirit.
The only language he understands is the language of power.
While many live victoriously because they know God and His Word is alive and active in them, others live in defeat without it.
The power we seek is all in the Word. In-spite of that, many are undersiege for falling to realize the power of God has given them in His Word.
The enemy is viscious. And we require the military force of God's supernatural intelligence to take him out!
It's from that standpoint of invisibility that we disposes the enemy territories we previously lost due to ignorance and regain control.
Inflation in Nigeria
Inflation on the rise in Nigeria: a bag of beans is now 100k
It's unfortunate we have gotten to this point in this country
Certainly this is not the change we were promised and pleased I'm not a fan over the two political party I believe they are both the same.
On a monthly basis prices of food items appear to be rising in major cities in Nigeria.
The prices of beans for example as gone up over the last one month compared to other months.
A bag of beans sold at 30k in early September cost between 80k-100k depending on the area.
Unfortunately more nigerians will be afflicted by hunger and malnutrition because the food prices will continue to spike.
It's a known fact in Nigeria that whatever goes up(price) does not come down😪.
I just pity those who couldn't have a meal a day prior to this inflation how will they cope.
In August food inflation rose to 20% due to the hike in local food items .
The minimum wage in Nigeria is 30k that means a civil servant can't afford to buy a bag of beans 😭😭 where did we get here.
It's important to know that other food items prices are going up sporadically.
Cause
The insecurity in the North is considered a factor as farmers are forced to flee farmers out of fear for the lives
As bandits, biko haram and other criminal elements wreck havoc without getting punished.
This is not a good birthday 🎁 for a country who just celebrated 61
