I mean it's really exasperating when you hear people say nonsense.
In this age of Google, what you don't know isn't a crime, the real crime is not taking the time to find out.
Watch the below video and see what i mean.

I must apologize for my non-posting all this while.
I lost a dear family member in May and was subsequently hit with an illness that took me to delirious heights. It was more challenging than what earlier transpired but WE THANK THE LORD, body still day inside cloth.

Sounds cliched, i know but that"s the reality.
Until it happens, you would always be like " It's well" like the evangelicals would have us say..
Always go for a check-up even if everything is well or appears to be well.
Reduce all behavioral patterns and deeds that are inimical to you in the long run...
Make friends with your doctor.....
Peace.....

I had to just come of my hibernation to make this short comment on this topical and burning issue that's engulfing our nation at the moment.
How do you justify a term of imprisonment for two years or paying a fine of N750, 000: 00 for stealing 23.3 Billion Naira ( about $147 million)? Simply, the law does not allow the judge to impose a sentence than that prescribed by the law.

SUMMARY OF NIGERIA's HISTORY TO DATE (as compiled from @Chxta's Timeline)
There was a country...
1905: The British government bought a total area of just over 900,000 sq km from the Royal Niger Company. Cost: £845,000.
1910: A report was sent to London indicating that for three years running, the Northern part had failed to meet its production quotas.
1910: same report also pointed out that F.O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01057541023081726293noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498699636752266072.post-80403337628196636022012-12-27T17:47:00.001+01:002012-12-27T17:47:53.376+01:00NO TITLE
