The First Thing You See Here Will Reveal – What Kind of Mind Power You Have

Psychobiologist and Nobel Prize winner Roger W. Sperry found that the brain’s 2 hemispheres—left and right—function differently, and the way you think depends on which of the sides is dominant. Based on his research there are numerous tests that can determine your thought process and personality traits.

Now scroll below to know more about how your mind works based on which animal you saw first.

The head of a tiger

The left hemisphere of your brain is more active than the right. You are an analytical person, very goal-oriented and organized. When faced with a problem you tend to be logical, calculative, and objective.

However, sometimes, because you know that the decision you made was made after a lot of thinking, you tend to be adamant. So, it is advisable that you hear the opinion of others and take it into consideration too. Remember that a little humility goes a long way.

Your personality traits:

Planned: You do things in a properly planned way, like in a to-do list.

Precise: You have clear, ear-marked goals and are clear about the path to be taken to achieve them.

Rational: Emotions and feelings do not get in the way of you achieving your goals.

Logical: You have an aptitude for math, science, and sequencing ideas.

Realistic: Your world is very real. In it, there is no place for fairy-tales and fiction. Similarly, however lofty your goals might seem to others, you know that they are realistic and achievable.

The Hanging Monkey

The right hemisphere of your brain is more active. You are a creative person who is full of innovative ideas. When faced with a problem you rely more on your intuition (which more often than not is correct) than on critical thinking. 

You know perfectly well that every step you take in your life is a lesson for you and that even includes losing is a step toward achieving your goals. To you, the journey is more important than the goal. Since you are a dreamer, you often get lost in your own dreamland. It is essential for you to get a reality check every once in a while and to pay a little more attention to the world around you.

Your personality traits:

Impulsive: You do things spontaneously. You have a knack for taking an out of the box approach.

Emotional: You care a lot about a lot many things. You spend time pondering and act based on feelings.

Creative and artistic: You are skilled at music, arts, and other creative disciplines.

Intuitive: You don’t make a to-do list and don’t go by the rulebook. You solve problems intuitively.

Dreamy: You have dreams for life rather than goals and you put effort toward achieving those dreams, often succeeding.

Remember that the 2 hemispheres of the brain do not work in isolation, rather they work together and complement each other. So, while you may seem to possess more traits that identifiable with one of the hemispheres, you will surely also possess traits from the other hemisphere.

So which image did you see first? The head of the tiger or the hanging monkey? Do your personality traits match? Let us know in the comments.

FGN Sets Up Presidential Task Force National Pandemic Response Center

We just ended another meeting of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19. Today marked the inaugural meeting of the Presidential Taskforce National Pandemic Response Centre. I think it is important to let us know that the country is about to witness turbulent times induced

As COVID-19 Cases Continue to Rise .....

My wonderful people, hope we all are keeping well. I wish to salute our patience at this time of lock down.

However, I wish to let you know the importance of our continuous staying at home at this time.

For those of us staying in Lagos and Environ, Lagos had been declared an Epicenter and for us as healthcare professionals, everyone in Lagos is a covid 19 suspect until proven otherwise.

This is for our safety as there are many asymptomatic cases of covid 19 now on the streets.

Furthermore, we have passed travel history to covid 19 area as yardstick to pick suspected cases. What we are now dealing with is community transmission cases of covid 19.

These are people who do not have travel history to Covid 19 pandemic area, in fact some do not even posses international passport, yet are

Tanzanian President Cancels $10 Billion Chinese Loan. Says only a Drunkard will Sign It

Is Magufuli a demigod or the general African leadership has started stepping up to Chinese Killer loans? Let’s digest it. A few years back, African leaders developed a sudden inexplicable craze for Chinese killer loans with terms and conditions that beats logic.

They sign Chinese loan agreements that they know very well they cannot pay back within the agreed time frame but mostly proceed with the loans just for the kickbacks attached and the benefits some individual politicians stand to get from such contracts to the detriment of the development of their respective nations. In most cases, the defaulted loans lead to the seizure of major facilities to make-up for the amount involved.

Following a series of constructive criticisms by reputable organizations and general outcry by concerned African citizens about the dire consequences of these killer loans on the continent, some of the leaders seem to be taking certain commendable actions to save their dying reputations.

Prior to the enlightenment and outrage by the African citizenry, the least was heard of African leaders or governments confronting China to loosen up their terms or face suspension of contracts but in recent times, they are building some courage to do the needful.

The Tanzanian head of state, John Magufuli canceled Chinese loan of ten billion US dollar (US$10billion) agreement signed by his predecessor, Jakaya Kikwete with Chinese investors to construct a port at Mbegani creek in Bagamoyo, just north of Da es Salaam.

The Chinese investors initially agreed with the erstwhile Tanzanian administration to build the said port on condition that, they will be granted a 30years guarantee, 99years uninterrupted lease with an attached outrageous demand that, the Tanzanian government will have absolutely no power to raise concerns on whoever invests in the port during the period stated.

This sounds very ridiculous, but it was actually signed by a certain government which raises the question of whether our lead negotiators read and understand agreements before appending their signatures. In the words of Magufuli, the above terms and conditions could only be accepted by mad people. in effect, He initiated a renegotiation with the investors to bring down the lease period to 33 instead of the initial 99 years negotiated.

The government equally stated clearly that there will be no tax or utility exemption for the investors as has mostly been the case in the parasitic China-Africa trade relations. Additionally, the investors will need the approval of the government in order to operate any new business at the port. The government issued a time frame which the investors failed to meet, resulting in the suspension of the agreement.

Aside Tanzania, it could be remembered that, the Julius Maada Bio lead administration in Sierra Leon equally suspended a $400 million airport construction agreement in 2018. He was quoted to have said that: “it is uneconomical to proceed with the construction of the new airport when the existing one is grossly underutilized”.

Additionally, there have been several other resistances to Chinese backed contracts in Africa. The cancellation of a USD2 billion coal plant contract in Kenya, among few others, are typical examples of the growing awareness.

Does this imply that there are no countries in Africa that are still taking these killer Chinese loans? No! some countries still sign such agreements, mostly at the blind side of the public and the consequences will soon be seen.

The acknowledgment of the above bold steps taken is mainly to encourage the African leadership to move away from the killer Chinese loan mindset which is a looming neocolonial trap and focus more on transformational ideas to make good use of our resources. Even if they will consider signing such, they should come with reasonable and mutually beneficial terms.

FIVE DOCUMENTS YOUR PROPERTY MUST HAVE

Ownership of real property is to be supported by documentary evidence. There are five documents every property must have. If you do not have any of them, there is a need to discuss with a real estate consultant at your earliest convenience. They are:

*1. Purchase receipt:* A purchase receipt is a written acknowledgement of the recipient of payment for a property. It may be required as an evidence of ownership or acquisition of property in certain circumstances.

*2. A registered Survey Plan:* A survey plan is a diagram that describes the margin and precise dimension of a parcel of land. A surveyor is an expert who is concerned with the official assessment for evaluation and measurement of land. The survey is expected to be lodged (registered) at the Surveyor General’s office of the state in which the land is situated.

*3. Deed of Assignment:* A Deed of Assignment is a document that shows the new legal owner of the property; i.e. the property has been transferred from the buyer to the seller. It is a contract from the seller to assign the property to the buyer.

*4. Certificate of Occupancy (C of O):* The C of O is a justifiable consent from the government that the property is in your possession. It is issued by the Governor of the state in which the property is situated.

*5. Approved Building Plan:* This is an endorsement to proceed with the construction or reconfiguration of a particular structure in a specific place, in accordance with the approved requirement. It is very essential that you ensure that the structure of the property corresponds with what is shown on the plans.

Prophet Alabi

*Mazi Abe Idris*
Prophet Alabi was the head of the Cherubim and Seraphim church on Aggrey road, in PortHarcourt, back in the 70’s.

My dad was then ‘remarried’ to a lady from Abonnema, of Kalabari extraction.

Auntie Briggs was a fervent and senior member of the church and went by the title of “Mother in Israel”

On Sundays, she wore her crown with the inscription “Mother in Israel” with such pride, you would think she was on her way to Heaven as she made her way majestically downstairs to the car and church.

She was rich in her own right, so I knew she was able to afford spraying herself with a whole bottle of Joy perfume every sunday.

She probably believed the Angels would come down and dance with her in church, attracted by the gallon of lavender oozing off her sutànä.

At least it worked with Prophet Alabi.

The man will gum to her large backside, singing and praising Jah Jehovah, as the church drummers beat the hell out of the leather drums, Prophet Alabi trembling and shivering to a crescendo and climax screaming “Jehovah Emmanuellllllllllllll!!”

Auntie Briggs, half bent over, her wide ikebe stuck out in spiritual abandonment to the Gods and Prophet Alabi, eyes closed tight in supplication, will also tremble with passion.

I always suspected that they were cumming, but I jus minded my own business, me too looking out for any free shaking ikebe.

By that time, the whole church has gone wild in dancing and singing.

Me too, I will find any shaking Ikebe and glue my boner to it, shouting “Jehovah!”  as I give my stiffy to Jesu Christi and the soft valley shaking in front of me.

Oh, I loved Cherubim and Seraphim in those days, especially when it was dancing time.

“Let us pray” Prophet Alabi will finally manage to extract himself from behind Auntie’s big thing, using the big Bible in his hand to cover his raging hard on.

My Dad never really bothered to go with us to church, but I used to wonder if he ever knew the method of praise worship at his wife’s church.

He knew Prophet Alabi fairly well, as the man always stopped by every Sunday for a ride to Church.

“Aaaa! Alhaji, èkarò sir.  Are you going to honour us and come to church today, sir?”

Popsy will jus smile and offer him a drink.

He knew the man was a fraud, but if it meant his wife spending the whole Sunday away from the house with her nagging, then Pastor Alabi was welcome to climax on her ikebe. As long as he was left in peace to watch his favourite James Bond movies.

The Sunday ritual was always the same:

Prophet Alabi and his short Rasta hair will roll into the sitting room at exactly 9:05 am.

The Sunday Sunday jollof rice is always ready by 9: 10am.

The Prophets timing had become so legendary that the front door is already open, awaiting the arrival of Prophet Alabi.

After pleasantries:

“Abe!!!”

“Yes Daddy?”

“Get Prophet a Guinness from the fridge”

“Yes daddy”

“Aaaah! this one is too big o, Alhaji. I can’t finish it sir. Do you haff small stout instead, sir?”

“Erm..... no small stout o, but I will help you drink some of it”

Gist about Govt and politics will go on as the big stout decreases, popsy winking at me in amusement as Prophet Alabi’s voice gets louder and more excited.

He has forgotten to share the big stout with popsy.

Then the jollof rice arrives and they relocate to the dining table.

“Abe!!”

“Yes daddy?”

I know the drill, so I don’t need any prompting, as I place the second big stout besides Prophet Alabi, as he begins to tackle the jollof and fried chicken.

No protest this time, as to whether it is big or small.

Jollof and Guinness continue to battle for space inside Prophet’s fat stomach.

At a point, his untidy dreadlocks seem to be getting longer, but maybe it’s my imagination sha.

Finally: “Aaaah! look at the time. It’s almost 10 o’clock ké! Time for church”

Prophet lumbers to his feet, swaying a bit, but steadies himself.

Popsy smiles, a slight shake of his head as he shepherds the obviously tipsy Prophet toward the door.

Mother in Israel is not far behind them, giving her hubby a quick kiss, shuffling after Prophet Alabi on their way to another kokoma dance.

“Are you going with them?” Popsy will raise his eyebrows in surprise, knowing I don’t like the whole church charade.

But ever since I discovered the “one corner” dancing in her church, I had become a Cherubim and Seraphim covert, looking forward to glue on to available soft mountains during offering time.

“Yesh daddy, ayam going with them....”

Who Are The Igbomina??

Igbomina is among the main clans of Yorubaland. The Igbomina people are in the north-eastern part of Yorubaland and are reported to be more than one million. About 90percent of these native Yoruba people live in the present day Isin, Irepodun and Ifelodun local government parts of Kwara State, while the remaining occupy Ora and Ila - Orangun areas of Osun State.

Igbomina people were said to have migrated to the present place of settlement from various locations and at different times between the 14th and 17th centuries A.D (Dada, 1985:1) Majority of Igbomina clans claimed to have migrated to the area of present habitation from either Ile-Ife or Oyo, the two main nuclei of Yoruba. The progenitor of the Igbomina was a prince of Oduduwa (Johnson, 1921). According Yoruba-Igbomina tradition the area now called Igbomina was given to and founded by Orangun of Ila as his own share of inheritance from his grandfather, Ododuwa, the purported progenitor of the Yoruba race (Ibiloye, 1994: 33). According to this tradition, Orangun was the second son (and the fourth child) of Okanbi, the only son of Oduduwa. He founded Igbomina through the use of Ogbo. It was this Ogbo that was supposed to know the way to the bank of River Niger, the ultimate destination of this itinerant way-farer; hence the name Ogbomona (that is, Ogbo knows the way) literary translated (corrupted over a time) to Igbomina with the passage of time (Ibiloye, 1994: 33).

Apart from those found in Ila area, Igbominaland is more precisely aligned into sixteen administrative parts in Kwara State. The areas are Sare, Oke-Ode, Igbaja, Ajase, Omu-Aran, others are; Omupo, Isin, Oro, Ora, , Oko, Ola, Esie, Oro-Ago, Ile-Ire, Idofian and Idofin.

We have got known compartments of Igbomina towns and villages in few other locals of Kwara State including Apado in Iponrin area, Jeba in Lanwa district, Apa-Ole, Joromu, Fufu etc., in Akanbi district and Ogbondoroko in Afon area.

The Igbominas are often grouped into two; the Igbomina Mosan and Igbomina Moye.

The Moye group includes Oke-Ode , Oro-Ago, Ora, Oko-Ola, Idofin and Agunjin districts.

Mosan group comprises areas such as Omu-Aran, Ajase, Igbaja, Isin, Oro, Share, Esie, Omupo, Idofian and Ila-Orangun.

The cord that firmly holds the Igbomina clan together exhibits in their inseparable dialect, origins, values, culture, institutions and history.

All across Igbominaland, the habit of eating Ewu-iyan and Ikasin oka or oka alagbona, isn't unfamiliar. These foods are a remake of the overnight leftovers of amala and iyan, a delicacy that adds refreshingly new flavours of delicious tastes and aromas to the meals.

The “new” taste is highly cherished in especially Omu-Aran that its inhabitants have this refrain " ewu iyan d'omu o dotun" , meaning the re-make is no way inferior to the fresh one.

The Igbomina dialect is generally similar, however, there are slight to significant variations as one moves from one part to another within the land.

The Igbominas have overtime enjoyed Egungun Elewe, Layewu and Epa festivals.

Primitively, their occupations were generally hunting and farming just like the rest of the olden day Yoruba nation.

Some decades ago, they were known to settle for secondary school education, where they often continued into trading and or apprenticeship which they relied upon as means of livelihood

Modern day Igbomina thrive in trading still, they seem to be at the way top of wealth distribution in Yorubaland and Nigeria going by their renowned traits. They are industrious, selfless, full of agility and are often driven by willingness to succeed. An average Igbomina is second to none in entrepreneurship and small scale businesses. They start small (Kiosk stalls) and end big. Having said that, they are also now known to be university graduates and even professors. There are uncountable Igbomina who are medical doctors, lawyers, engineers and so forth They are found in all aspects of Nigerian economy, including banking and finance, industry and commerce, shipping and freighting, transportation, international trade, management and in government administrations.

UTAH LEGALIZES SEX OUTSIDE MARRIAGE AFTER GOVERNOR SIGNS BILL ROLLING BACK 1973 ‘FORNICATION’ LAW

Utah Gov. Gary Herbert has signed a bill that decriminalizes sex outside of marriage in the state.

Herbert signed Senate Bill 43 into law on Wednesday, the governor’s office confirmed to TIME.

“Fornication,” which is sex outside of marriage, was classified as a class B misdemeanor and punishable by up to six months in jail, according to a 1973 Utah state law.
The bill includes a repeal of the offense of fornication and was sponsored by state Senate Minority Leader Karen Mayne. The bill amends other terms in the criminal code legislation, including penalties and offenses related to clandestine drug labs, electronic communications harassment and the return of a marriage license to a county clerk.
Utah’s state legislature passed the bill earlier in March.

Herbert on Monday signed a separate bill that decriminalizes adultery and sodomy between consenting adults, which also constituted misdemeanor crimes.

Tinubu to FG: increased VAT will put pressure on Nigerians| TheNation

National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has advised federal government to jettison the proposed increase in the Value Added Tax (VAT).

The proposal if implemented, he said, will put a further burden on the Nigerians, especially the masses.

Tinubu also warned Nigeria must begin to look inward and initiate people- friendly policies based on the looming global economic recession.

The former Lagos governor, who spoke at the 11th Bola Tinubu colloquium in Abuja, also asked the government to revisit privatisation of the power sector.

This, he said, is necessary if Nigeria hopes to fast track industrial development and job creation.

He also demanded an end to estimated billing in the country.

According to him: “I want to appeal to Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, the Vice President and his team to put a huge question mark on any increase on VAT.

“If you reduce the purchasing power of the people, we can further slowdown the economy.

“Let us widen the tax net. Those who are not paying now, even if they are relatives of Bola Tinubu, let the net be bigger and we take in more taxes. That is what we must do in the country instead of another layer of taxes for now.”

On needs to industrialise the country, Tinubu said: “We require serious and bold reforms to achieve this. What is happening to our gas pipelines?

“Whatever we have to invest now for our future is a task that must be done boldly.

“The PDP administration shared out generation, distribution and transmission to their friends and cronies without very deep and thoughtful research and evaluation.

“It has now become pork chops. This privatisation must be revisited. Put experts together for a more constructive reform to improve generation, transmission and distribution by any means necessary.

We cannot afford to be too legalistic about this.”

He went on: “We should push to end the practice of billing people for electricity they never received.

“This practice is a vestige of the past that should not accompany us into the future. A person should be charged accurately and only for the power that they use.

“Government should continue to aggressively implement its national infrastructure plan.

“We must commit ourselves to a national highway system linking our major cities and towns, our centres of commerce with each other. This will save lives, spur commerce, cut costs and bring Nigerians closer together.”

The co-Chairman of the APC Presidential Campaign Council stressed the next level slogan of the party during its campaign was not just a jargon that should be discarded after victory has been won.

He said: “The Next Level is not just a trendy campaign phrase to be quickly discarded once victory has been achieved.

“It has a much deeper and more profound meaning, perhaps even more than its authors contemplated.

“This is because we are a nation still in the process of defining itself politically and economically.

“In this process, it is tempting and easy to borrow indiscriminately from those nations that seem to have mastered the art of democratic governance and to have achieved economic prosperity.

“However, to achieve durable progress, we can’t afford to work hard but in mindless devotion to the ways of other nations.

“This truth is particularly acute when these very nations now face fundamental political and economic questions that cast doubt on the social utility and viability of the economic model under which they have travelled for the past 50 years.”
