LET US STOP THE ACRIMONY AND START ENGAGING POLITICIANS

Hundreds of millions of Nigerians are suffering and among these suffer-suffer "pepulu" some are busy cursing and abusing their friends and family members on social media in the name of politicians that will throw banters after the election, win or lose.

Nigerians are supposed not to take the bait again. Instead of fighting one another, we should grill these people like eran asun (roasted meat). We should ask them what their plans are for us and our wards, we should tell them to debate each other so that we can know who is truly competent, and we should tell them that our votes are not for sale but free for the best candidate who has proven him/herself.

What the majority of Nigerians want is a better Nigeria where we can all thrive without any connection to any politician or influential person. The way to get that is not by fighting on social media but by being truly a part of the process.....

In the end, if you are eligible to vote, make sure to go out and vote your conscience - not because someone is your "countryman" or from your tribe or religion but because you believe he/she is competent and capable to lead the change Nigeria wants and deserves in the 21st century. And then, leave the rest to the invisible one...

This is Cacophony at Best...

MAGA destroyed DEI but they want to implement DEI at Harvard ... They claim the school is not diverse enough. They have too many liberals , so they need to hire more conservative , whether they meet the hiring requirement or survive the rigor of delivering excellence at Harvard or not. This is what they claim DEI is all about - hiring people based on race, they claim, but they have no issue telling Harvard to hire based on political ideology.... You read the same thing about BLM and Antisemitism . They say BLM reflects poorly on the history of America... Critical race theory is false history... slaves loved being in captivity, they loved their masters and served willingly... there is no more discrimination based on the color of your skin in America - but all the metrics point in the opposite direction... Jewish Lives Matter ; Black Lives Matter , and Palestinian Lives Matter ... All Lives Matter . A terrorist life should not be equal to 20 innocent Palestinian life... It is okay t...

The untapped gold mine in Nigerian Tourism

ALL of these countries have something in common: Egypt (Pyramid; Nile), Kenya (Games; Nile), Greece (Ancient Ruins), Israel (Bible sites), China (Wall), USA (Grand Canyon, Rockies), Spain, France (Eiffel), Morocco (Marrakesh), Canada (Rockies), Australia (Kangaroo), German (Wall of Berlin), United Kingdom (Palaces), Saudi-Arabia (Mecca-Medina), Madagascar (Forest of knives), South Africa; Central America - Bahamas, Jamaica, Barbados, Cayman Island, St. Lucia, Virgin Island, Puerto Rico, Mexico (Beaches and exotic sites), Dubai (High towers, Real Estate), India (Medical care, IT, Taj Mahal), etc. These are some of the best tourist destinations in the world.

In 2017, Morocco, our African brother saw over 11.3 million visitors; South Africa with their violent crime rates, saw 10.3 million, Egypt saw 8.3 million, Cote D'Ivoire our neighbor in West Africa saw 1.8 million. Botswana, a country of 2.3 million people...
