New Year. New Life.

Happy New Year everyone. I know, I know, I know....... you've all missed me. In the last couple of months, I've been deeply engrossed in enough change and projects.

It is only right for me to say I am a very changed man now. Because I intend to make our society a sweeter place for us all.


Let's talk about the menace called NEPA or is it PHCN .... or whatever the bloody name they call themselves nowadays.

I strongly recommend that they should be scrapped. We don't need them. Let's know we have no light in this country

Nobody

In the words of M.I Abaga and Tuface Idibia "If nobody talks about you, then you are nobody. Whether na true abi whether na lie. My Guy.......... walahi."

Rejoice when people talk about you. It means you are recognized. It simply means that you are flying and they are crawling. For it is easier to be see all that's soaring up above than to see what crawls on the earth. That's why it 's easy for them to see you and talk sh!t, while they eat maggots and dust at the same time.

Keep doing your thing and their idle minds should continue staying idle for all they say only makes you stronger and more successful. Some people take pleasure in back-biting, starting unnecessary biff and a$$-kissing.

Nobody can stop your shine. Nobody!!!!

Mans Shortsighted Nature

The difference between MTN and Etisalat is called SEASON.

MTN came to Nigeria at a time when nobody wanted to invest in Nigeria, at a time when Nigerian did not have phones. Even Zenith Bank refused to loan MTN cash to operate, UBA rejected MTN’s offer but today see the difference.


At least we all know the story of the only civilian unelected President in Nigeria- Goodluck Johnathan.
We know how the people said he was not going to be President, they even made him acting-President. Today the rest is history.


What about Cowbell?
When they came to Nigeria, they made milk in a sachet, Peak was laughing at them- they said Cowbell was milk for the poor- but they were right! 3-million poor people could afford N10 a day for a sachet of milk. Do the math…3-million people buying milk at N10- that was N30 million every single day. In a month they grossed N900-million (almost N1 billion). Even Peak had to make sachet milk in order to survive in the market.


So what have people told you?
What have they said you cannot do, you do not qualify for, you do not have experience for?
They told Cowbell, they told Goodluck, they told MTN but the story has changed. I get the feeling that something is changing for you! Don’t listen to what people are saying or what life is showing you….


Be steadfast in your ways. Pray for God's grace and guidance. Work hard, work smart. Be focused. Do away with some old friends and bad habits. Make new friends who have a sense of  purpose, and add value to your life. Human beings are a creature of habit. So we cannot do without it. However, bad habits can be replaced with good ones. Never give up, erase your doubts and feed your greed. Watch yourself grow and flourish.

Keep on keeping on.

TGIF and have a great weekend!!!

The Voice of the People

Amazing how fast bad things escalate. N29k from a minimum of N85k. Hmmmmm. This outrageous amount. The ripple effect is fast increasing in diameter. From Abuja to Lagos to Bauchi.

Action they say, begets an equal and opposite reaction. From Shutting down Call Centers to shutting down shops to shutting down switch sites thus affecting mobile networks in Abuja and surrounding states. Seriously affecting revenue, churn, brand image and much more.

In this our "siddon-look' society, it's interesting to see young people stand up in the face of oppression and social and economic injustice which threatens to destroy our economy, our country and indeed the freedom of our children born and yet unborn. That they may not grow up in a world of slavery and that they should be free of oppression by legal and illegal immigrants.

The cry is getting louder and the people are becoming more aware. I advice that the Nigerian government intervene sensibly and the concerned parties favourably reverse their monetary and other staff welfare issues in favour of the people.

The Nigerian labour laws and practices must be revisited and reviewed to suit all Nigerian and not just a greedy few politicians. I believe the minimum wage should be reviewed to N60,000/month for non-graduates. Every single state can afford to pay this amount if the leaders are willing to put aside their greed and focus more on the people rather than on amassing personal wealth. As I see the beginning of the Nigerian uprising, if this situation is not resolved with wisdom.

The voice of the people they say.............. is the voice of GOD!!!

God bless Nigerian youths. God bless the Nigerian people. God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
